I got an eye exam here a few days ago, and the optometrist was amazing. Seriously amazing. This is hands-down, without a doubt, EASILY the best eye exam I've ever had. Thorough, thoughtful, considerate, and did I mention thorough. I learned things about my eyes that I didn't even know were possible. Absolutely everything was explained. And I was given my full prescription without even having to ask. I can buy glasses online if I want, or I can go back to them to have them made. The exam was only $65. This is the price. This is not discounted, insurance copay, or anything complicated. Flat rate, $65, and the best quality you could want from an eye exam. It's just insane. I couldn't be happier. Apparently, my father-in-law was impressed as well, as he took the next appointment after me once they realized the scheduled appointment was a no-show. Lucky him, because not only did HE also get the best eye exam of his life... he also got glasses. And they were ready the next day. For a great price as well. I mean ... this place is PERFECT. I'm dumb-struck. Figuratively speaking, of course. Seriously, though. Go there. Even if you don't need glasses. Get your eyes checked out. Take care of yourself. TIPS: They take credit, cash, and check. Their credit card machine was broken when we went in, but they were happy to let us run to the ATM for cash. Or take the card to run later. Very flexible. Appointment is necessary for the optometrist, but not for glasses. So "By Appointment Only" is yes and no, depending.

I can't say enough positive things about my experience with The Envision Clinic and Dr. Israelson…read more A few years ago, I had LASIK surgery, and since then, my vision has been pretty good. I hadn't been to an optometrist in years because I didn't feel the need. That all changed one morning when I woke up with an intense case of pink eye. The Envision Clinic was able to get me in so quickly, and Dr. Israelson was incredible. She was kind, knowledgeable, and supportive, instantly putting me at ease. She prescribed treatment that worked immediately, and during our conversation, she took the time to discuss how eye health can often reveal other potential medical issues, including signs of a brain cancer recurrence--something that resonated with me deeply, as I'm a brain cancer survivor. A few weeks later, once my eye had healed, I returned for a comprehensive eye exam. I've never had such a thorough and thoughtful evaluation in my life! Dr. Israelson's attention to detail was unmatched. Although The Envision Clinic doesn't accept insurance, their pricing is very reasonable, and the quality of care is worth every penny. Dr. Israelson identified a slight astigmatism in my left eye and some mild degeneration in my LASIK correction. She explained everything clearly and practically, helping me understand why LASIK wouldn't be a good option for me again and recommending glasses specifically for driving and nighttime use to reduce glare. Her advice was incredibly practical and tailored to my unique needs, especially as someone with a complex medical history. The clinic itself is top-notch. It's clear they invest heavily in advanced equipment, staff training, and staying up-to-date with the latest research. They also have an impressive selection of frames--from trendy and fashionable to truly unique designs. Although I'm moving from Boulder to Denver soon, I'll happily make the drive back to see Dr. Israelson. She's one of the most compassionate and competent medical professionals I've ever encountered--and I've worked with many doctors over the years. If you're looking for exceptional care, practical insights, and a personalized experience, I can't recommend The Envision Clinic and Dr. Israelson enough.

In August, I needed a form signed that I had had an eye exam in the last 6 months. I brought the fillled-in form in to be signed and was told that the doctor wasn't in but would be in the next day and I should come back in 2 days and pick up the signed form. So I came back in 2 days and they had lost the form. But I was prepared with another form filled out except for the signature of the eye doctor. Alas, that doctor wasn't in and ... oopsie ... they said I needed ANOTHER eye exam $$$ (despite having the "works" done a couple of months ago) and then the eye doctor might sign the paper on Friday and then they'd maybe email it to me. Good grief. So I won't be back - had much better exams and service at LensCrafters.
