I had seen another OD for decades... and at the end of 2016, i was experiencing some symptoms that…read morethis other OD kept dismissing- yet my eye sight kept getting worse. It was suggested that I get a second opinion and when I called Dr Marchetto, she saw me the very same day. After an extremely thorough exam (probably the most thorough exam I had ever had on my eyes and I have been dependent upon glasses and contacts for over 40 years), I was diagnosed with cataracts - cataracts that needed to be addressed fairly quickly. To say that I was SHOCKED would be an under statement. After having a COMPLETE meltdown (after all, these are my EYES and you only get one set of eyes), Dr Marchetto and her awesome staff calmly and methodically walked me through two months of preparation and severe anxiety leading up to my cataract surgery and recovery (surgery was performed by OCB in Plymouth). I am happy to report that I had successful surgery on both my eyes, and have pretty close to 20/20 vision even as a high myopia patient! Not to sound dramatic, but I hate to think what would have happened had I not stumbled upon this practice. I feel like they literally saved my eyesight for me. I would recommend this practice to anyone.

I brought back a pair of glasses because they seemed wonky and the gentleman fixed them while I waited, they were improved but still wonky. I figured maybe it was me, maybe I wasn't giving my eyes a break while viewing a screen when I was supposed to so I kept using them. At my next eye appointment (I go somewhere else for medical reasons) I asked them to check and see if the glasses matched the prescription and they said they were way off, that because of astigmatism it's important that they be centered correctly. So, I called and asked for the owner to talk about the error in the glasses. She did not return my call for about a week and when she did she seemed really defensive saying that it is not possible that the glasses left there with a flaw. Then said that they had to special order the frames because I wanted old frames which I was very appreciative of and thanked her again for. She then said that it had been a year since I got the glasses to which I replied I think it's been 9 months but thinking, who cares, I wasn't asking her for anything. I was calling to let her know that the person working on the glasses may need some more training on centering glasses. And to order new glasses with the new prescription I just received (that I did Not expect free at this point but was hoping for a discount due to driving cross-eyed-ish for 9 months). She finally snapped "you'll need to bring those in." Obviously. I don't think I'll ever go back there, she obviously cares more about not being wrong than she cares about her customers.

Also, I'm one of those people who waits until the last minute to re-order contact lenses, usually past the expiration date with prescriptions.

This is the worst experience I've had with them. Came to pick up my glasses from a quick fix and my…read moreold lenses were scratched, as if someone pressed down on the them. The manager (Val?) who was doing the fixing adamantly denies scratching them and instead aggressively blamed me for bringing in "already scratched" glasses. She said she will not admit to scratching them because she doesn't want to pay for the new lenses. Understanding but suspicious. I've been a loyal customer for 5 years and this is the treatment I get Why weren't the glasses checked before the fixing and if they were scratched ( which they weren't cuz I would have ordered new ones) - why wasn't this reported to me by the office beforehand? What's making me more confident that she scratched them is that this is THE SECOND TIME this has happened. But last time the lenses were brand new, so they couldn't blame me and had to replace them. The manager also didn't want to give me a supervisor's number, acting as if there's no one else above her who can help me. Instead, another staff member provided me with one. Her rude and defensive behavior made it even more suspicious. I contacted the supervisor Tarsha to investigate and hopefully find a solution. She promised to call back but didn't.
