The only time I felt the doctor was giving an in-depth look at what was going on with my eyes. They offer you two additional exams that insurance does not pay for, but they are not expensive and worth it for the amount of detail analysis/images they are able to get on your eyes. I hate shopping and shopping for glasses is not remotely on my list of "favorite things" to do; however, she was very helpful and narrowed the type of styles I liked so I could pick what worked best for me. Just got my glasses today - in only about a week, and just in time for a long trip. Thank you.

I knew I was going to drop some change pretty hard when I needed new contacts. One of the things I…read moreappreciated most about TotalVision was that the group here is very transparent about costs from the minute you get in. In fact, there are 5 different tiers of contact pricing, so that helped me figure out what would fit me best. In addition, they let me try a certain type of contacts for 4 days and come back in to determine if it was a good fit and feel for me. That little gesture really helped solidify my confidence and eased the pain of the cost. Dr. Lindower was very kind and efficient without making me feel rushed. The other two people working here who helped during my appointment - I forget their names! - were also very nice. You could tell they do the same sequence with most of their patients, but I felt cared for and not just another paying customer. They answered my questions along the way and were very descriptive about what a certain test or a certain liquid was for. It was a little challenging getting a first-time appointment, but there was a lot more flexibility for the follow-up appointment. Definitely call with a bunch of time leeway in mind. I'd definitely recommend TotalVision.

Each person who handled my visit was kind and reassuring while explaining the steps leading to the surgery and post op. Doctor Solinsky also has a calming presence.

Thank you all so much for making what I feared would be a traumatic experience to bringing such unexpected relief and joy. I cannot describe how great it is to be able to see so clearly.

Went to see Karen at The eyeglass Place in Newington. I needed to update the Rx on my shooting…read moreglasses. Although I had originally purchased them online a few years ago, I decided that I wanted to work with someone local, especially an optician who was familiar with shooters. Karen was GREAT. She took the time to dial in the Rx for both pistol shooting and for skeet/trap shooting. I was even able to bring in my pistol to fine-tune the distance (emptied and safety-checked, of course!) We created interchangeable lenses for the two different disciplines. (I have interchangeable lenses for my dominant right eye: one optimized for pistol shooting, focusing on the front sight, and another optimized for distance while shooting clays. The left eye is optimized for distance in both cases.) And I also got separate lens sets for low/flat light and for bright light conditions. Even better, she was able to use my existing frames (Ranger Edge, https://www.reranger.com/products/edge?variant=32703827607691). I used them for the first time a few nights ago at a pistol class. What a HUGE difference! I actually won the shooting competition that night! I HIGHLY recommend Karen and The Eyeglass Place in Newington, not only for your general eyeglasses but especially if you're a shooter and you want to work with someone who "gets it!"

So, I'd been going to this Eyeglass Place (Newington) for 3+ years and bought my frames, lenses and…read moreeye exams there without issue. Then late last year I brought in two sets of frames I purchased online to have them lens them for me (they were in a style no one was carrying). They took one look at them, tried to remove the clear lenses they shipped with, told me they wouldn't come out and they feared they might damage the frames so they couldn't help with them. I took them home and thought I'd see if I could remove the lenses - they all popped out hassle-free with zero damage. Excited, I called them and explained and they asked me to send them pics - I took the pics and sent them over while they waited. In under a minute they told me they still couldn't help me because the frames were low quality (I bought them on Amazon). I was uneasy about their replies so I went for a 2nd opinion - I stopped in at Harvey & Lewis at Hartford Hospital - I had used them years earlier when I was a high wage earner and needed a lower priced dealer. They took a look at both frames while I explained their lineage. In 5 mins they were fitting me for lenses in both pair. 2 weeks later I was wearing both pair. The story doesn't end there. Fast forward: I called Eyeglass Place to get my eye exam so I could get a new (extra) set of frames with the usual lensing. The day before the exam I rank to an issue and needed to reschedule which they did, somewhat begrudgingly. 2 weeks later, & 2 days before the rescheduled exam my ride had to work so I called again to move it out another week or so. The gal on the phone informed me that this was my 2nd reschedule and that it happened again I'd lose the privilege of booking in advance ever again and would have call in each day to see if they could see me that day. She left me feeling emasculated, like a child being scolded by his mother, so I acted accordingly. I went back to Harvey & Lewis, scheduled an exam and again, my ride got called into work so I rescheduled. While rescheduling, I asked them if there would be any kind penalty if additional rescheduling was required on my part.. The gal on the phone (Madeline) basically told me that life always has unforeseeable issues and that I could reschedule a half dozen times if that was what it took until it was right for me - they'd gladly still be there for me. My buddy (my ride and also a customer at Eyeglass Place, was also involved in this process and as of now, neither of us will be returning to Eyeglass Place. Clearly sometimes you really do get what you pay for. So, as a cautionary tale, if you're planning on going to Eyeglass Place Newington, please note that she's a jealous mistress, if you're not100% loyal to them, be prepared for your treatment will be meted-out proportionate to the extent of your "transgression."
