I recently had cataract surgery on both of my eyes performed by Dr. Kessler. Dr. Kessler and his…read morestaff are truly professional and caring. I was well informed as to what to expect and was well taken care of at the surgery center. He uses a process that doesn't require consistent eye drops after eye surgery. The main complaint from other acquaintances who had the surgery was all the eye drops that are required after surgery. I loved that I didn't have to do this. I recommend Dr. Kessler for any eye issues especially cataract surgery. I can't believe how much brighter my life is! Linda K.

This place doesn't deserve even one star these days. My husband and I have been patients here for…read more20 years or more. When Kessler and Weintraub owned it, I couldn't say enough good about it (Kessler was our doctor --- wonderful). Both have retired recently and the practice was sold. Now I can't say enough bad about it. Phone calls are no longer answered in the office, they go to an off-site call center. When you arrive for your appointment, you're required to check in at a kiosk, even when nothing has changed (insurance, address, etc.) since your last appointment, which is a painful inconvenience when you're elderly and in bad physical shape like me. There is only one ophthalmologist (medical doctor) here, the others aren't medical doctors. And she isn't here full-time. Original appointments are never honored. You always receive an email advising you the appointment needs to be rescheduled "due to unforeseen circumstances", and, when you call to reschedule, the first available appointment is always months away, meaning you aren't being seen annually, instead more like every 18 months. These "unforeseen circumstances" of theirs have happened to my husband and me with every appointment since the practice was sold and to every appointment for my sister and her husband who are patients here, too. I guarantee this is happening to most, if not all, patients here. There are no other ophthalmologists in Westminster, except for a pediatric ophthalmologist, so we're stuck here because I don't want to be seen by an optometrist, I want a medical doctor only. If I could find another ophthalmologist in Westminster, my husband and I would leave this place in a New York minute.

Alright, brace yourself and have patience. This will be a lengthy review…read more In December 2023, I called to schedule an appointment for an updated routine eye exam, to ask about getting a new pair of prescription eye protection for work (there's an astigmatism in my right eye), and to possibly consult with a doctor regarding Lasik (if possible). Appointment was scheduled for March 2024. One week prior to said appointment, I get a call to reschedule as the doctor would not be in the office on my appointment date. For that doctor (do not recall the name), the next available appointment would be in June 2024. I said, "Absolutely not, I have already waited 3 months." The receptionist, being very pleasant to work with on the phone, offered an appointment the following week with a different doctor - Martin Weintraub, M.D. Upon going to my new appointment, I enter the office to see that I have to check-in on a self-service kiosk (great... just like self-check outs in stores) where you scan your driver's license, scan insurance card(s), enter PII, answer whether you have COVID and/or display symptoms (which I answered I do not), and PAY the co-pay BEFORE receiving service (nope, don't like that). A short while later, an employee/technician, Samantha, calls me back to perform pre-screening questions, check my eyes, dilate eyes, etc. Prior to leaving the room to wait in the lobby for the doctor to call me back, she asks "Did you bring a mask?" in which I replied "Nope!" She hands me a flimsy disposable medical mask (the blue ones that hook on the ears) that I proceeded to put in my pocket. She, nor any other employee in that building, was wearing a mask. A couple elderly patients in the lobby were wearing a mask, which is their choice. Even David Bittings, O.D., another doctor, was walking around without wearing a mask. THEN I see Weintraub escorting another patient out into the lobby with that stupid blue mask worn as a chin diaper. He briefly disappears, and then returns to call my name. In the exam room, upon sitting in the exam chair, I witness Weintraub takes off his chin diaper to put on a more "durable" mask, similar to a KN95 or 3M. He asks me "Do you have a mask?" I said "there is one in my pocket." He asked if I could take it out, in which I did to show him. Weintraub just stares at me for a few moments, with this dumbfound look on his face. I then said, "Do you want me to put it on?" in which he replied "Yeah!" (In a condescending tone). While putting on the mask, I said, "Cool, have to wear a mask that doesn't work." He replied, "Masks do work." I said, "Nope, it's already been proven they don't." This is where he derisively said, "There are other doctors you can go find that do not require masks." While putting a piece of medical tape across my nose to hold the useless mask in place, he said "entertain me." After the exam, when prompted if I have any questions, I began to ask about Lasik which is where he cut me off, instructing me to go to a Lasik center and ask, but probably won't get it due to my astigmatism being minor. When I began asking about replacing my prescription eye protection, he again cut me off and said, "I don't do classes here. Go to where you got your other pair." Well, that was a previous doctor in a different state. This man's "bedside manner" is very subpar, and apparently doesn't like allowing his patients to practice free will. Only Weintraub was wearing a mask, so it clearly was not an office policy. Just his, because he has to get in the face of patients. The mask I had to wear was not for me, but for him. I have had COVID 3 times, without receiving the Fauci Ouchi, and I'm just fine. I do not need, or want, to wear a mask. If you, poor man, in your frail state are worried about contracting an illness (like the common cold) from someone else, perhaps you should RETIRE! You've been going for 41 years... maybe it's time to call it quits. Yes, he was right, there are other doctors I could have seen. Considering that I had already paid for the appointment, though, I put on the mask to get it over and done with versus trying to get a refund. However, as a 39 year old man, you sir have lost a patient and hopefully this review will deter others from visiting with you as well. If you decide to schedule health care services at Carroll Vision Center, stir clear of this liberal imbecile (I presume, of course).

Still waiting for Levin to deliver the lenses I ordered on Jan 24th. Why am I paying 30% more for such horrible service? I'm going to request a refund today and hope that they can locate the frames I provided. At this point I'm not worried about my 3 yr old frames, even though they were very expensive. I just want my money back. UPDATE: I called Levin Eye Care home office 410-486-1010 and spoke with Hope. She gave me a partial refund of $100 on my $300 lenses and explained that they switched labs on Feb 8th but that my lenses are at the old very slow lab. The partial refund brings the cost of the lenses $20 below what I paid at Carroll Eye Care. I appreciate Levin making an effort.

He gave me new eye prescriptions and charge Medicare/Medicaid. Every year my eye sight got progressively worse. This year in February after Dr. Baer gave me my prescription, I couldn't see 10 ft in my new $380 eyeglasses. I went back to South Penn, maybe the Optometrist made a mistake. Staff was unconcerned told me to give it time to get use to new prescription. It's August and I still can't see past 10 ft. I saw DR. Kessler in July for a second opinion. My pressure was 20/22. He immediately sent me to Dr. Swartz a glaucoma specialist at GBMC. Turns out I have Angle-closure non-glaucoma (because I haven't yet had an acute attack). A condition which causes the eye lens to fuse to the iris and close the drainage canals, causing fluid build up. On Tuesday I had a peripheral iridotomy, a 5 minute, in office procedure, that will save me from a future acute glaucoma attack that can result in massive nerve damage and vision loss. I have to see another specialist to correct the damage to my lenses before Dr Kessler can give me a new eye prescription. I'm hopeful that I will see again by Thanksgiving. Same condition two different opinions. Dr. Baer has been passively monitoring my pressure once a year for 5 years using the DO NOTHING method. I've made this review very detailed because eye sight and glaucoma is nothing to take lightly. It is your EYESIGHT. You need a proactive Dr who will fight to save that eyesight. I'll let you decide whom you would trust.

The one seemed to be in a hurry to close the session & was telling my husband goodbye when he spoke up & said that the potential glasses still wasn't clear. She suggested a couple changes & quickly closed the session. When my husband picked up his new glasses, he said that they were blurry. The lady at the counter made adjustments & said it will take several weeks to get used to them. My husband never got used to them & came back. She changed the nose pieces & said again to get used to them. My husband drives a large DOT truck & it's important that he can see, so we went to a real Optometrist, 2 different people there looked at both pair of new BJ's glasses & said that the progressive line was down on the one lense & way up on the other, on both pair! They couldn't believe that nobody caught that, plus the prescription was not right. They were able to reuse the frames, thankfully, and trashed the lenses. AND they did not say, "Get used to it!", like what Bj's did. He walked out the real Optometrist's office with his new glasses & he could see! We wasted a lot of money at Bj's. They had better stick to selling groceries.
