They saved my vision…read more I went to my regular eye appointment at 2:00 pm. Dr Corredor, OR with Terrezza's office compared my photos of my eyes that they had just taken & then compared them to last years. That's when he immediately said "this doesn't look right to me". Dr Corredor, OD immediately referred me to Retina Specialty Institute. Because of the severity of my right eye, they got me in in less than 30 minutes. He took care of me so well. So I then arrived to Retina Specialty Institute statute. I waited less than 10 minutes before they called me back. According to Dr Ahmet Ozkok, MD, It turned out that my right eyes's retina had torn/detached in a horse shoe type pattern. I believe he said it was 80% detached. He immediately did a type of laser procedure. He made sure to add numbing drops first. And when I cried, he would stop and calm me down. I cried because apparently I'm just a baby! He has a wonderful bedside manner. I may be older - but I was still so scared. He gave me very specific instructions and the staff stayed late because of my procedure. Everyone was so very nice & patient with me. Dr Oscar Corredor, OD (Terrezza's Optical) and Dr Ahmet Ozkok MD (Retina Specialty Institute) saved my vision. Because this happened late on a Friday afternoon. Had they not cared about me - I would have ended up in emergency surgery over the weekend. I love both these doctors and I know you will too. I trust them both with not just my vision but with my life. These two doctors worked in tandem to save my vision. That is why I decided to put them both in each of their businesses.

The girl at the front desk said, I am sorry, they should have caught that earlier.. YA THINK? TODAY 2/26, I got a refund check from their office?? I didn't pay anything to them, when I got there.... So I call the billing department, which you can't get through too, they had to call me back. Finally this afternoon, I got a call. The girl answering the phone said you called us, what did you need??? I am like, who is this? She then said, oh, Lake eye associates. I told her I received a check and I never even saw a doctor. She said, well, it was probably an overpayment?? I said I haven't seen a doctor in 2 years....I said, well, you mean to tell me you can't tell me what it is for...she said, well, yes, but I need your name? VERY RUDE!!!! so after she was on the phone for a bit, she said, oh yes, that is from 2024????? again, WTF...well, we will just say we have been audited and now they are having to pay everyone back for the overpayment THEY received from my insurance company and have been holding on to it...... HELLLOOOOOOO????? are you kidding me? This place is committing fraud!!! Forget it, I will NEVER go back here!!

Dora were awesome as was the staff at The Villages and Leesburg. I am 71 years old and have worn glasses since I was 7 years old in Elementary School. When cataracts affected me where I shouldn't be driving, I made the appointment and opted to have my stigmatism corrected with the cataract removal. Dr Panzo and the Mt Dora office staff spent the time on each visit to check my eyes, map and keep records of my eyes and what was needed to eliminate the cataracts and the stigmatism. The two operations were successful and my vision is now 20/20. I would recommend Dr. Panzo and the Mid Florida Eye Center to anyone looking for either of both of these procedures. Thank you, Dr Panzo and the Mid Florida Eye Center Staff. Rick McCurry

This review and rating are for the optician service at Ocala Eye, Laurel Manor Office in The…read moreVillages. With this input, I hope to regain my trust in the opticians' services I have been using for years. A couple of weeks ago, I purchased two pairs of glasses; in one pair, the frame did not fit tightly around the lens. I came twice to report the problem; unfortunately, each time there was a long wait, and the optician advised me to come back at 8:00 AM when the office is slow. Following the advice, I arrived at 8 AM, an optician assistant, showed up around 8:10 AM. I asked about the opticians, and the assistant told me they were both running late. The optician assistant offered to take care of my glasses and, upon examining them, optician assistant announced that the frames are ok and, if I want, she might warm up the eye glasses frame, which might tighten the grip on the frame on the lenses. That solution did not make any sense to me and I 'sinsisted on seeing the optician, who showed up around 8:25 AM and told me that, indeed, the eyeglass frame is defective, admitted that she had missed inspecting it, and offered a replacement. Clearly, the optician assistant was incorrect in her evaluation of the frame. If I had not questioned her judgment and kept the defective frame, I would have missed the 60-day window to report the problem with the new glasses and would therefore be stuck with the defective frame or incur expensive repairs. I feel that the customers returning defective product should be a priority bypassing the waiting line. But if that is impossible and instead optician suggests to came at 8:00 AM to avoid waiting then logically an optician (at least one of them) should be be in the office on time, right?! Also, the opticians' staff at Ocala Eye at Laurel Manor may consider maintaining professional standards of healthcare workers which may include using the phrase "I am sorry" when appropriate.
