Please beware of North Hills Eye Associates Karlik Ophthalmology…read more Recently I received cataract surgery from Dr. Jeffrey S. Karlik. Before the surgery the vision in my left eye was near perfect. After the surgery I became nearsighted. Objects became very blurry within 15 feet. Also, a blood vessel was broken in my left eye. Upon office visits after the surgery I was lied to by Dr. Karlik that my vision was bad beforehand. A total falsehood. I now have to wear corrective eyewear because of his botched surgery. I was also advised by an employee of the Pgh. V.A. that a relative visited Karliks office for an eye checkup and was told that they had cataracts. After seeking a second opinion it was determined that their diagnosis was faulty. The patient did not have cataracts. Please beware of North Hills Eye Associates Karlik Ophthalmology. I would like to hear from you if you also have had any such terrible experiences

It was almost as if the doctor was giving a house call, because the office is literally in a house! Since Dr. Bruno had left, the office has made some changes for the better.

I had been in a car accident and having lots of visual issues and was having a ton of vestibular and convergence problems. Because I didn't hit my head in my accident, I figured I was okay, but I wasn't. Dr Rodriguez figured out that I had post concussion syndrome, and helped me find a Vision therapist to help me heal and regain normal eyesight. Since then, he asks me every visit how I am. He has my best interest in mind, and always makes sure that my sight is perfect when I leave. He is extremely friendly and is so personable, which makes my visits enjoyable. I've had some visual changes with aura due to my migraines, but he has squeezed me in to make sure everything is okay. I have diabetes, and every year he carefully examines my eye health, and I get peace of mind knowing my pressure is in a great range! His staff always greet you by name and never push you to buy anything. They are very helpful and compassionate, and their recommendation for a blue light filter coating (prevencia) for my glasses has helped my neurological pain a lot! I've always been a contact lens girl, but because they offered me this lens option last year, I wear my glasses a lot more often because they are so comfortable! They even allow you to bring in your own frames purchased outside of their practice to get lenses put in. I love that I have that option. I highly recommend Optometric Care. It's a comfortable and intimate setting where you are treated much better than the larger chain stores. Dr. Rodriguez truly cares about his patients and will take fantastic care of you!

I switched eye doctors in 2020 and was a patient at North Park for two years. The complaints about…read moretheir wait times are true. Your appointment could be at 9 am, but you won't see your Doctor for another 90 minutes. Their glasses shop has a nice selection, but they don't really help you find a pair that fits your face. I bought a pair of glasses there my first year and they were a bit big for my face, and I had to bring them back because they kept sliding off my nose. What prompted me to return to my old Doctor though was their billing. They sub their billing out to a company called Patient Bill Help. In October, I received a text from Patient Bill Help stating I owed $63.75, which I paid online. Two days later I realized I should not have owned anything, and I have been trying to get this resolved for three months. The individual(s) that handles the billing at North Park make assumptions on eye insurance. I had a few conversations with someone local in that office where they argued with me on what my insurance covered, this is even after my insurance company explained to them that I was 100% covered for both eye and contact lenses. The conversations were, literally, "eye insurance doesn't cover both contacts and glasses" and me informing them that yes, mine does, all they have to do is scroll down their screen to see (this has been confirmed multiple times by VSP representatives. The office never scrolled further down my EOB to see I was covered for both). I am now at the point I told Patient Bill Help and my eye insurance that I would suck up my lost of $63.75 as a lesson learned. If you don't mind long waits, get you glasses elsewhere, and have "standard" or no eye insurance, this place might work out for you. If you have premium eye insurance, or are use to getting retinal scans each year (I was never offered them at North Park) I recommend going elsewhere.

When I arrived I was greeted with a friendly smile from her assistants as always and was quickly offered the OPTOMAP. That's where they take a picture behind your eye. It's pretty cool actually and that allows the doctor to be able to see the overall health of your eye and can compare it from the previous year. What's awesome about that is if there are health concerns detected in your eye, it's more then likely, going on everywhere else in your body. After the pictures were taken, I was then taken to a waiting room. Moments later the doctor came in with a friendly smile we talked about our personal lives and had my normal eye exam. She's super friendly and funny, so I enjoy seeing her regularly even if she no longer accepts my insurance. She's always been honest with me and I feel she truly cares about the health of my eyes and is just a genuinely good person. Her prices are fair and I haven't had to worry about the insurance at all. I will continue to see her and recommend her to anyone else looking for a good eye doctor.
