Latey, I underwent cataract sergery, and the results, 2020 vision in both left and right eyes…read more I am a senior citizen of 69 years, and in only two weeks my vision has been restored. I opted for standard lenses. With these standard lens I did not need laser surgery to adjust the quality of my vision. I had some luck that I achieved this quality of restored vision. I add that Dr. Scott Kirk provided Radial Keratotomy in the summer of 1996. Although this is an dated surgery, anyone with a past RK should consider cataract surgery at the Kirk Eye Center because they provide light adjustable lenses for patients who seek greater likely outcome for seeing 2020 and that LASIK is not recommended for patients with past RK experience. Also, since I have had decades of eye care at K.E.C. River Forest, IL, I am certain that I'll continue to have great health care at their facility, here, I am met with a well organized staff capable of delivering care. I would like to add that they have added to ther staff young talented ophthalmologist and I hope they consider advancing to eye surgery.

I've been a Kirk patient since I was a kid-- my dad has been a patient of theirs for even longer. I…read morehad moved away, but have returned to help my parents. I always thought of them as completely trustworthy, but recently they performed magic for me. TLDR: Hiral Patel gave me the best prescription I've had in almost two decades and Viviana Cano eased my anxiety over switching back to contact lenses after almost three decades of wearing only glasses. Now, all the extra details. Last year, my vision was so bad that I applied for blind disability. My mom and dad insisted that I come home and go to Kirk for a definitive evaluation. Five hours into the appointment, my future was bleak. The final recommendation, a week later, was surgery. My parents were totally ready and willing to pay for it, but I hate spending their money and put it off put if off put it off. I'm going to skip the specifics on the stuff about the bad diabetic protocol prescribed by my primary and how I ginned up the courage to change my own insulin dosage and how that probably saved my life and jump right to the day when a friend told me that her eyes didn't track together and she didn't see in stereo but wearing hard lenses gave her real vision for several hours a day. I immediately thought "let's get me over to Kirk and ask them about this." I was almost too shy to make the appointment, but the possibility of being able to drive again was too seductive. I called and set the time. I got there an hour early. David and I sat in the parking lot eating precut watermelon from Jewel (same plaza.) I was nervous. Doctor Patel strutted to the lobby to grab me for my examination and I was immediately filled with confidence. Anyone with that much personal security must be great at their job. I was not disappointed. "I want this to work," I offered. She smiled quickly and told me "remember to blink." I'm drowning you in minutiae. Let me bring this to a 10/10 conclusion: my vision is now corrected to 20/20 (I can read a sign from three blocks away!) and the lenses correct my astigmatism and keep my eyes in line. Now: Viviana. When I asked her to take a selfie that she liked (for me to use in this review,) she is so humble that she didn't immediately understand that it was to praise and appreciate her. She's extremely deserving of both. I came in two days after my miracle exam, not sure if I had successfully removed the acuvue daily lens from my right eye. She took a peek and confirmed that it was out, and placed an order for some more trial lenses so that I could make sure it was the right fit for me. I came in again today with both lenses still in and significant anxiety over that fact. Today, Viviana removed the lenses and gave me a comforting tutorial that I think might help (and then listened patiently and socially awkward me gave her an unsolicited lesson on trafficking of vulnerable groups in rural areas that flowed from my rant against Loyola facepalm. Patient and kind and so helpful! Thank you. Infinity/ infinity

My condition required a 5 day hospitalization. Prior to seeing Dr, Kirk I had seen a different MD because Kirk Eye Center was closed. That MD minimized my concern and misdiagnosed my condition. When I saw Dr. Kirk he listened to my concern and did a thorough examination. In addition to being an excellent clinician, he has a very good bedside manner. I've recently had cataract removal in both eyes and now have excellent vision without glasses. Again he took the time to determine the type of activities I am involved in to make a recommendation for the type of lens to insert. The procedures were absolutely pain free even though I just received a sublingual anesthetic . I highly recommend Dr. Kirk.

I wish I could give this place more stars. My mother was taken to Loyola in Maywood to have…read morecalcification scrap off her eye lens every month for a few years. I felt so bad for her because she constantly rubbed her eyes and couldn't see very well. This went on for years so when I took her to the Doctor, I ask why she had to come back every month and wanted to know what her problem was. They just walked away and would't answer me. I was referred to take her to Panton eye center so I made an appointment. Her first visit I was told that my mother was in a lot of pain and needed to be put into the hospital to have surgery. A few days after the surgery, first thing my mother said was 'my eyes don't hurt and I can see.' It was such a excellent experience for my mom that I won't go anywhere else because these Doctors are the best. I love the fact that when I call for an appointment, the staff is very effiencent in making sure I had all the information in advance of what they needed and of course checked to make sure my insurance would cover there services before I schedule an appointment. I decided to write this because I want someone who is seriously looking for a great Doctor to know you have found one. I have another appointment tomorrow and was looking up the address and couldn't believe some of these reviews. They have nothing to do with how good the Doctors are which surprises me that they are considered reviews. I can't believe anyone would think that they can walk into a doctors offfice and think that the Doctor that is waiting for his first client, that has an appointment, would see them on the spot. It takes more than 15 minutes to see the Doctor. Then the patient that has an appointment will have to wait and so on. Thats why its called an appointment. I can honestly say, you will walk away with the best care and professional service you could possibly receive. Before any of you decide to write a review for anyone give yourself a day to think about it. Remember what comes around goes around and we all have bad days. You shouldn't take it out on devoted passionate people who go to work everyday and take pride to help those who need their expertise.

I was forced to make this distinction because my original ophthalmologist from a few years ago was a retina girl, whereas cataracts require cornea boys my cataract surgery was done one eye in January and the other eye in February. I had had strong trepidations because an old friend once had this procedure (under the knife of some other doctor) which for reasons unknown to me went haywire and effectively left him blind. but thanks to dr. Hennessey the results from the implants he selected and inserted gave me better vision than i'd enjoyed in many years (i'm normally near-sighted). only a local anesthetic is used (at the hospital) so you're conscious the entire time he's messing with your eyeball (though without any pain). costs were largely covered under medicare (although I also have bcbs as a back-up) lastly dr. Hennessey is quick, informative, and in control of everything related. I saw him at two offices (besides the hospital) they have (the other being in Elmhurst) but it was convenient and went perfectly smooth
