    Dr. Valenti can be likened to a rare gem. Once you find it, you care for it, hold on to it, protect…read moreit and watch its value grow. He listens and cares and is most creative in his approach to enhance your vision using noninvasive and or chemical means to treat you. He has helped me tremendously through minor changes of diet, physical exercise and simple vision exercises. Other doctors simply wanted to prescribe medications and never took the time to ask questions and LISTEN. He is the BEST! There is no doubt his primary focus is always the patient he is with. I am thankful and blessed to have him as my OD!

Dr. Valenti specializes in working with challenging cases, is set up to help children, and focuses on those who want to improve their situation through eye exercises or other changes in daily behavior. He has many ways to test your vision that are beyond machinery, and you may find yourself moving through his office with him and being challenged in non-teaditional ways so he can assess how well your other four sense support your eye health. If he tosses you a ball without your glasses on, how do you react? Can you navigate his halls without your glasses? What else plays into your sight problems: temperament, intuitiveness, sense of balance, eye-hand coordination, attitude, not enough sleep, other health problems? He is very resourceful, especially if you need more help than just an annual exam. I welcome my annual check-ins with Dr. Valenti and trust his eye-deas!

    I had a good experience with Mihir Parikh and the staff was friendly, which is why I chose to…read moreproceed with LASIK. However, I'm extremely disappointed with how my medications were handled. I was initially given expired eye drops before surgery, which I reported. After surgery, I developed an eye infection, and when I was given a new bottle on 03/30/2026, it was set to expire on 04/04/2026--just days later. When I called, I was told it's "okay" to use expired drops, which is very concerning. For a clinic like NVISION Eye Centers, this level of carelessness with medications is unacceptable. I would not recommend this clinic based on my experience.

    I'm 6 months removed from my LASIK procedure and I wanted to update my review to give more of what…read morehappened from the day of the surgery on. Day of the Surgery: The actual procedure was done in a very short period of time. I felt pressure on my eye socket, but nothing else. You just stare at some lights and each eye is done in a matter of 20-30 seconds. Once you're done, they give you protective goggles and send you off with whoever is driving you. You get meds to help you sleep and relax your eyes for the rest of the day. When I woke up from this, I could already see much better. Next Day: I woke up and was astonished at how good my vision was. I have books across the room from my bed and I could read all the titles from where I was laying. Pre-surgery I couldn't even tell there was writing where the titles were. I had my check up at NVision, which I drove myself to and the rest of the day was great. Day 3: This day, my eyes hurt like hell. I took drops a lot and tried to keep my eyes closed a lot. The rest of the week, the pain decreased and went away and my vision continued to improve. I was never more excited when I didn't have to wear the goggles to bed anymore haha Over the next several weeks and months, my eyesight was much crisper than it had ever been when I wore contacts. Colors were more vibrant and I could read street signs much farther away. My eyes needed drops at the beginning and end of days as they were frequently dry and to this day I still have minor halos around lights at night, but damn this eyesight is a dream. If you are eligible for Contura, I would definitely spend the extra money and do it. It made a big difference for me.

    I was referred by my Optometrist to Dr Julio Echegoyen who was at this location for LASIK. I came…read moreto the office 3x - first time was to assess if i was a good LASIK candidate, the actual LASIK surgery, and then a follow up the next day. All 3 times, the staff were amazing and helpful. Everything was explained to me in detail and they made sure I was comfortable. I had very bad vision but was at ease with the surgery considering how the folks are at Gordon Schanzlin. The surgery itself was probably only 5 mins, but a lot was done to make sure I was calm and ready for it. When I was a bit nervous during surgery, they helped distract me momentarily so we could continue seamlessly. I was given clear instructions for aftercare and i had zero complications. I even drove myself to my follow up like they said id be able to! When I needed receipts to help with FSA / insurance reimbursements, I called in and was assisted upfront. I never had any issues with the office side of things either! 3 months later, i still have 20/20 vision and 0 issues. I'm very happy with my treatment and would highly recommend Dr Echegoyen and the Gordon Schanzlin Institute.

My appointment last week resulted with lots of recommendations, a new prescription, testing for blinking ability, meibomian gland scan, sensitivity testing. I'm hopeful that this situation will be resolved. The doctor spent over an hour with me for testing and I will be back next month for a treatment of Lipiflow which was not even offered to me at the previous practice.
