The true definition of a five-star experience.

I had a very positive experience with Dr. Udesky and his staff. We moved to the area several years…read moreago and I'm only now updating my medical care team to be more local. Between COVID and having an unreasonable stash of daily contacts, I put off my eye exam for longer than I should have. I really need new glasses, though, and had some urgency around spending HSA money that was rolled over during the pandemic. Scheduling was easy peasy - I made my appointment on the website and received a confirmation quickly, which included instructions on completing new patient paperwork online in advance. I received a text reminder of my appointment the day before. I was greeted right away, given a few additional forms to fill out, and then taken in back for initial testing. I waited in the lobby for a few minutes before my exam with Dr. Udesky. It was a brief wait and, honestly, the highlight of my day because I got to see how sweetly Dr. Udesky and his team interacted with the patient before me - a little girl who appeared to be four or five years old. She wanted her "eye pictures" to take home and they printed copies for her before sending her off with a fist bump. My exam was great and Dr. Udesky was friendly and warm. I asked a few questions about my current daily contacts, whether contacts or glasses would be better while staring at computer monitors all day, etc. He also gave me some helpful insight into my eye health relative to a medical condition and understanding long term care. I'd been on the fence about ordering glasses or going with an Internet retailer but, genuinely, Dr. Udesky offers competitive pricing (at least in this scenario where I was also committed to ordering contacts). Maria helped me choose frames and I'm excited for them to come in, particularly after years of being unhappy with my glasses from another retailer that bent and were misshapen almost immediately. She was knowledgeable, took my feedback into consideration, and selected the winning pair. I suppose I should mention that I don't have glasses or contacts in hand so this could change, but given how positive my experience was, I'm currently a happy customer and glad to support a local Northbrook doctor and his team. (For the record, I was also sent off with a fist bump and an elbow bump so that doesn't appear to be exclusively for the kids.) :)

Dr. Frohm gave me a thorough exam using sophisticated (I think) equipment, and clearly explained what the exam said, and what my options were. Then, Shala took me through all the frames.

Hey, Northbook! You have a gem in New Days Optical. I was a customer of John's for more than 15…read moreyears when he was in Chicago. He is amazing. This is a one-man-show kind of store, but all you need is John. He doesn't do exams, so go to your eye Doc first, then bring in your prescription. John will make sure you have the perfect fit. Over time, I progressed from single vision to bifocals to trifocals, and he made sure the lenses were just right. No new-glasses-nausea! The fitting experience alone is an almost spiritual experience. Just go. You'll be glad you did.

This guy is a total jerk. I just went in to look at frames. I wanted to be sure the place I went…read moreto had frames I would wear. I asked to try a few on and he puffed out like a chicken, said he's a very serious doctor! The best!" Then he went and sat behind his desk. I was unsure what just happened so I said, "So...I can't try any on?" "NO!" I'm not sure why he did that but it was a total jerk move and I would only go here if you enjoy getting yelled at, otherwise I would stay away.

Update: They said it was in transit and would be delivered this past Saturday, they were not. Now they say they are going to be SHIPPED tomorrow. How do you go from telling me they shipped to telling me they didn't? Who runs the communication over there? I would just like an honest up front answer instead of this delay delay delay until it comes in. This is my second straight issue with this contact. Last time it took 3 months to get and apparantely your company forgot to even order them initially! So many delays and poor communication. Would it kill ya to at least send a text or email saying you've received my order? Never got that either even though you said I'd have it.

I gave them my vision insurance info and they said they accepted it. I got a call a few days later by a women at the front desk asking for my insurance.

I called the AM of my appointment which I got a text confirming the appt but the office had never heard of me and didn't have my appointment. The women at the front desk were beyond rude! I would never even make another appointment there again.

I had a terrible experience with Dr. Dalporto. Not only was she unprofessional, but she provided…read moreme with the wrong contact lens prescription for 2 years. I had difficulty seeing anything up close with the contacts I wore that were based on her prescription. Reading books, checking my watch, or reading on my phone was impossible due to the blurriness. It bothered me for 2 years, and I was very frustrated with the issue. I asked her to adjust the prescription several times. She made slight adjustments, which were not helpful. She finally told me she could do no more, or I would have trouble seeing things far away. She also told me that it was normal to have blurry vision while wearing contacts when looking at things close up because contacts are different than glasses. This was incorrect information! I wasn't sure what the problem was, but I figured it was my eyes. Eventually, due to the discomfort, I gave up wearing contacts unless it was absolutely necessary. The issue was finally resolved when I took a trip to Taiwan and consulted an optometrist there who told me that the prescription Dr. Dalporto gave me was entirely wrong and too strong. They said that she should not have simply given me a prescription based on whatever the vision test machine determined. Every prescription needs to be adjusted based on each individual's lifestyle and habits so that anything--both close up and at a distance--can be seen clearly and comfortably. I received a new prescription, and when I tried the new contacts, I immediately noticed a huge difference. They were so comfortable, and I had no trouble seeing or reading things on a computer, on my phone, or close up. The problem I had with blurriness that had been bothering me for years was finally resolved! Now I can wear contacts again--every day, all day. I went back to Dr. Dalporto and asked her to adjust the prescription on file based on the new prescription. She simply copied the numbers directly from the Taiwanese prescription and checked my vision. It was 20/20, of course. Had she actively tried her best to help me achieve the most comfortable and accurate prescription years ago, I would not have suffered so much with blurry vision when trying to see things close up! When I complained, the office manager was cold and impatient and didn't apologize for all the trouble I had been through. Instead, she asked me, "Is there anything else?" At this point, I was so fed up with this mess and so shocked at the customer service I received that I decided to change optometrists completely for my own vision care. One of the fundamental jobs of an optometrist is to give correct, comfortable contact lens prescriptions to patients. If they fail to provide an accurate prescription, it raises serious doubts about their professional competence. This experience proved to me that Dr. Dalporto doesn't care about her patients' vision, nor does she try her best to solve the vision issues they have. Instead, she is very passive, only does what she is asked to do (but poorly), and performs vision tests that a robot could do. In a word, she is incompetent. Don't go to Dr. Dalporto. She is totally unprofessional and won't give you a correct prescription!

I can't even see with these glasses anymore. I called rosin eyecare to ask if they had warranty for these since I bought them under a year ago, or if there was warranty through the lab, but all they told me was "just because it's anti-scratch doesn't mean it's scratch proof." But I don't like how they said that because I had glasses all my life and I never had this happen before to lenses. I only clean them with microfiber cloths too. They are very bad quality. I won't be coming here ever again and I recommend you go elsewhere for your eye care.
