Dr Ristad, who recently retired, was one of my favorite doctors of all time. His replacement, Dr…read more Elliott, has been a huge disappointment. Dr. Ristad knew I was almost ready for cataract surgery a year ago. I waited until I was sure it was time and met with Dr. Elliott. Dr. Elliott spent maybe 10 minutes with me. He didn't examine me, nor would he answer my questions. His advice was for me to wait and use my OTC eyedrops more frequently and get my glasses adjusted. Good advice, but these things aren't going to solve my cataract problem. I believe Dr. Elliott doesn't trust his abilities, because he told me that he didn't want to harm me. Why would he say that? Since I met with Dr. Elliott two things have occurred: 1) My eyesight has gotten significantly worse, and 2) I went on two trips where there's snow and sun, which is particularly hard on my eyes. I've since gone to another eye doctor who spent 90 minutes examining my eyes. He said my cataracts are advanced and surgery is definitely warranted. I wanted to avoid writing this review by speaking with a manager at Edina Eye Clinic. I tried twice but was told that it wasn't going to happen.

The ordering process went really smooth and the glasses came a few days earlier than promised. Upon picking them up, we were in and out in about 15 to 20 minutes and that we were well taken care of. This store has a ton of different options, but be wary of the price; they are not listed on any of the frames so you may want to ask before you fall in love with a pair because you might get sticker shock. Located in an easy spot at the west end with a decent amount of parking in front of the store and around the corner.we will likely return for future eyeglasses purchases. All day.

$1073.99 for an initial 20 minute consultation…read more Dr. Holland was nice enough and I'm sure if you actually require these lenses this place will be fine. I thought I was having a consultation to assess my eyes for a condition which would be helped by scleral lenses. When I asked what the visit would cost as a cash paying customer, I was told they wouldn't know the exact cost because the exact tests they perform aren't known until I am seen by the Dr. Ok fine, can I at least get a ballpark? Is it going to be, like, $300? $1000? The front desk person literally laughed and said "no, much closer to $300". Doesn't sound crazy, so I sign the HIPPA form and walk in. I see Dr. Holland and after a few minutes he determines I do not have the condition for which I came in for, but since I am here he pulls out test lenses and pops one into my eye. He explains how they work and what to expect (improved comfort over soft lenses but same vision as before). Dr. Holland gets up, walks out, and in comes Tiffany the office manager to show the cost of scleral lenses and subsequent appointments should I choose to move forward. She says since I am paying cash, I get a 30% discount. Total cost? $1620 for two lenses and unlimited future visits to get the fit "just right". I tell her I need to check with my HSA on reimbursement and think of this is right for me. She asks me to sign a document saying she explained the costs (mistake #1) I asked to pay for today's visit on the way out of the office and they said they would prefer to bill insurance first. I said that I am certain my insurance will not cover this visit; they said "we will just try it - you never know what they might cover!" (mistake #2). It was quite surprising to receive a bill several weeks later for $1073.99 for my 20 minute visit. Apparently I agreed to move forward with the lenses and unlimited future adjustment appointments by signing the document which explained go-forward costs. Expensive lesson learned. I spoke with Tiffany, the office manager about the bill asking if there was some sort of mistake and clarification on what was sent. She claims that I agreed to move forward - absolutely not, but she says it's my word against hers so... whatever? I asked if I can at least get the 30% cash paying discount - nope the best she can do is 10% since I am NOT MOVING FORWARD. So I guess I am, like, being punished for not moving forward with a treatment that Dr. Holland deemed unnecessary? Cool. I'm sure that Cornea and Contact Lens Institute will be in business for many years operating this way because, really, what can a patient do once this place sends the bill? You pay and they profit. Other things you should know: * Your $1000+ consultation (and I, guess, fitting?) appointment is only good for 90 days - unlike a regular contact lens rx which is typically good for 2 years * they seem to pack an extraordinary amount of work into 20 minutes. * if you happened to be swindled by this operation you can argue for a 10% discount * oh, and a consultation costs $1073.99 as of 8/2021

I checked the web site and saw that this place was nearby. Contact lenses in the name? Five minutes away? Yes please! I was very impressed with their COVID precautions--definitely the strongest I've seen: phone screen before entering the building, masks for all, lots of hand washing and sanitizer, and temperature and blood oxygen checks. Everyone there was friendly, courteous, and communicative. I had the first appointment of the day, and although I had set aside an hour as a buffer, I was in and out in less than three quarters of an hour. The exam was thorough, and while I didn't get met eyes dilated this time (and can't comment on their retinal exams), I can say that the pressure test was the least unpleasant I have experienced--no horrible air puff! Dr. Holland recommended some new contact lenses for me, and I am testing them out. So far, so good! I definitely recommend this to anyone who is looking for a new place to get an eye exam.
