Really disappointed in the after/follow up care I received after cataract surgery. My vision is…read morehorrible. The "warranty" is 60 days I was att 91 days when I called. They charged me full price, over $230 for the office visit. The Dr told me to use refresh eye drops more often, it was probably dry eyes, he was struggling too. I have and do use eyedrops through out the day, for years. It has been 1 year and my vision in the corrected eye, new lenses in my glasses too, is aweful. I will need the other eye done and will go elsewhere. I was going to switch my vision care to this office but will stick with Costco. The office staff is great, the Dr is nice, but "good enough" does'nt cut it when it comes to corrected vision.

I went in for a severe eye irritation that was causing me much pain and discomfort. I was called…read moreinto the exam room in a adequate amount of time. Once in the exam room I waited an hour before I finally called the front desk and asked them what was going on, that I had had been in the exam room for an hour. They said they would let someone know. About 10 minutes later a tech came and said that I was next, that it shouldn't be too long. Thirty minutes later the doctor came in. I waited a total of an hour and a half! On top of that the doctor didn't have the professional courtesy to apologize. She just began working on my eye, she also tweaked my eye while examining it, which was extremely painful. She then blew it off explaining to the tech that I was experiencing a little problem, that I was feeling uncomfortable. I have never experienced such treatment by an eye care professional. There are some positives though: before this visit I did see a Dr. Bagga, who was great, the optician named Rhonda was fabulous and the clinics lab did do a super job on my prescription, and finally the front desk staff were very polite and courteous.

I was very impressed with their service and products. Dr Emmert did a great job with my…read moreprescription. Her staff is also excellent. Prices are competitive. I will continue going to Riverview Family Eye Care for my optical care.

Title: Prescription seemed to be wrong, but they wouldn't recheck without me paying $95…read more I got an eye exam and a prescription. I told the eye doctor that while the options he flipped to, looked the best out of the choices, the right eye didn't look right. He held lenses over my glasses, that was supposed to be equivalent and it looked ok, so I went with it. I then looked at buying glasses there, but their prices, even with insurance, were about $150 more than other places, so I decided to buy them from my husband's eye doctor. The glasses came back and the vision wasn't right in the right eye so they made them again. It still wasn't right so they asked me to have my doctor recheck the prescription for my right eye. I made an appointment and came in, but was told that they couldn't recheck my eye prescription without having the glasses and that it would cost $95 to have it done. I asked, even if it's discovered that the prescription was wrong, I'd have to pay? And they said yes. So I said I wouldn't be returning and if I have to pay, I will pay a different place to do it. I can't believe they won't check if they made a mistake.

Excellent service we brought our 84 yo mother with dementia to get her eyes checked. The staff was…read moreabsolutely fantastic from the reception to the pretesting and the eye exam. Everything was explained to her and they patiently performed the tests sometimes having to repeat them.

In the end he just recommended some over the counter reading glasses for her.

Overall we were fine with our experience here and I'll likely be back when I need new glasses…read more We came in because my husband needed new glasses and they were having a sale. He ended up getting an eye exam, a pair of regular glasses and a pair of prescription sun glasses. I felt that the price was fair. Scheduling: The optometrist is not in every day. It was difficult to coordinate schedules to be able to come in at a day and time when she was in. A slight inconvenience. Customer Service: It's hit or miss. Some of the employees are jovial, friendly and very helpful. Some are off-putting and sales-y and others will ignore you while staring at their computer screen. On more than one occasion we have had to wait for a second person to come out from the back of the store to greet us because the woman in the front staring at her computer couldn't be bothered to notice us. But we never waited more than 20 seconds to be helped. It's truly a mixed bag of employees and attitudes here but no one was outright rude to us. Selection: Their selection of frames is large. If you can't find a pair of glasses that you like here, you are too damn picky. There is literally something for everyone here. Optometrist: We didn't have to wait very long after our appointment time to be seen. There was someone who did a preliminary test. She was a little unprofessional and seemed like maybe she wasn't entirely sure what she was doing. It didn't really bother me at the time though. She was friendly and joked around with us. The actual optometrist was professional and very nice. Retrieving our glasses: Someone called to let us know they were in. Everything went smooth while retrieving the glasses. However, after a few days my husband noticed that the prescription wasn't quite right. One eye was definitely blurrier than the other. They did say there would be an adjustment period. He waited a couple of weeks and the problem was still there. They handled the replacement of the glasses well. However, we live in Corvallis and it was annoying to have to drive to the store three additional times. Once to have the glasses examined to make sure the glasses matched the prescription. Once it was determined that they were correct, we had to wait and come in on another day to see the optometrist in order to redo his eye exam because she wasn't in that day. And then once more to retrieve the glasses after getting them fixed. In the end the problem was just that the first exam wasn't thorough or done well enough to render an accurate prescription. But they were nice about it all and replaced the lenses for free.

I don't appreciate being lied to and I don't appreciate the unprofessionalism all of the staff here displays. I am never coming back to this shitty location.

My new patient appt was made by my insurance. I didnt make. I looked up the address of the…read morebusiness and saw they are on Century Drive so I drive there and am early. The receptionist said your appt is for our 3rd street location and they have a 5 minute late gap to accept patient. I arrived 6 minutes late. I noticed there signage says VISION CENTER. I never would have guessed it is the same business as the other location. When I arrived, the receptionist asked do you have your paperwork? No, I never received any. She said sInce theres no paperwork then we'll need to reschedule. At that point I left stating I'd find some other doctor in Corvallis to have an exam with. This is extremely poor practice and they lost a customer who would have purchased "several" pair of glasses from them at this appt, not just one. Also, they need to actually SEND paperwork or let people know it's required so they can pick it up in advance. If you use them be certain you can only be 5 minutes late after rushing over from the other location which is actually called Eyecare Associates. Poor practice!

He went to the wrong Albany facility, so arrived at 10:10 AM for his 10 AM appointment. They turned him away, stating he should have arrived at 930 AM. When I called to inquire as to the discrepancy of early arrival instruction as he would've had a larger cushion of time to have made it to the correct facility, the receptionist said that it's here nor there because he was late, and that they have a seven minute policy so he was there for three minutes outside of the policy, and they are now booking out to May. Wow.
