Recently, I went to The Eye Center, 3500 Oleander Drive, Wilmington, NC, for a standard eye…read moreexam/contact fitting. The message on my voice mail confirming the appointment stated that my portion would be $39. Upon arrival, my out of pocket was increased to $59. When the exam was finished, I was required to pay $185. I was advised that Dr. Wallent decided that I needed a medical exam which was not covered by my Blue Cross Blue Shield insurance. I have never had a medical problem with my eyes nor was I advised that the fee would increase dramatically. Back in Ohio where I am from looking at the health of the eyes was a standard part of the eye exam which was covered in full by Blue Cross Blue Shield of Ohio. During my time as Director of Investigations for the Summit County Prosecutors Office in Ohio, we worked on insurance fraud cases regularly, so I am familiar with the form and structure of how they work. This particular type of overcharge is a classic example of "Bait and Switch". A truly insidious example of ripping off the consumer. My plans are to file complaints with Medicare, Blue Cross Blue Shield of NC, and the The North Carolina State Board of Examiners in Optometry. I look forward to these various agencies looking closely at the billing practices of The Eye Center where they may find thousands of cases of over billing, insurance fraud and Criminal Theft by Deception. I would not recommend The Eye Center under any circumstances. This review will also be posted on Google and Yelp.

Just completed my first exam as a new patient at Catino Eye Care and couldn't be more pleased…read more Excellent and friendly staff. On time appointment. Thorough exam with modern equipment. No pressure to purchase lenses/frames through them but more than willing to show what they had on hand and explain options. Dr. Kelly Catino was both very professional and very cordial. I appreciated the time spent explaining the various exams and results. Catino Eye Care will be my vision care provider of choice in the Wilmington/Hampstead/Topsail area.

They claimed I must have mistreated my glasses. All the other pairs I've had have survived nicely. Clearly this pair that was sold to me was not suitable for the ordinary purpose of eyeglasses.

I have been a patient of Dr. Treece for almost 2 1/2 years now…read more I first visited Dr. Treece at the suggestion of a friend in my neighborhood who used to work with her until her retirement. I think if you ask her, Dr. Treece might tell you that my case was one of the most difficult she has ever been involved with. I had been suffering with terrible vision that was barely sufficient for a driver's license, even with eye glasses, for over 20 years after having multiple PRK and LASIK procedures that ruined my vision rather than correct it. Those procedures left my corneas in such bad shape that glasses and conventional contact lenses could not provide adequate vision. The poor vision caused difficulties in driving, watching TV and movies, and enjoying life in general. I had long ago given up hope of ever being able to see well again. Dr. Treece recommended and prescribed scleral contacts lenses for me . The successful outcome of these types of lenses depends on a precise fit, and as she will tell you up front they may require several fittings for them to provide the optimal performance. That was the the way it was in my case. And I'm glad that she is determined to get her patients the best vision possible. When I say that Dr. Treece has made a dramatic improvement in my quality of life I'm not exaggerating. If you or anyone you know has been suffering with sub-par vision after vision correction surgery, or for any other reason for that matter, and have been told there is little that can be done about it I suggest you schedule an appointment with Dr. Treece at Cape Fear Eye Institute. I am very thankful for the eye care I have received from Dr. Treece and for my neighbor who presented my situation to her for her opinion.

They have also failed to bill my insurance twice now. I go for an exam and later I come in to pick up my contact lenses only to be told that I owe them a substantial amount of money. Now I've been a client/patient at this practice for several years, so they have my information on file. Even if they did not, they should have asked for my insurance information rather than simply demanding payment as if I was uninsured. And they have done this twice.
