    I called to make an emergency eye appointment. They don't take those. I had never been there before…read moreso they took all my info and made me the next available appointment. 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. She told me the call center said that (why is a call center telling ppl if they approve of ins or not???) she said she would look into it and get back to me. I never heard from her. 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've been wearing glasses for many years and, until recently, I haven't felt compelled to return to…read moreany of the eye-wear stores I've been to. In other words, I haven't been a very loyal "repeat customer" simply because I usually felt I was being rushed or treated very impersonally . Whenever it was time for a new exam and glasses, I would stop into any eye-wear store that was close to wherever I happened to be at the time. When we learned that my 10 year old son might need glasses so I decided to stop at this Rosin's simply because it was close to my younger daughter's "Little Gym" class. I was "WOW'd" with the level of service I received from the optometrist and the sales staff. I found them extremely pleasant, knowledgeable and very patience with my questions. I also felt they were genuinely sensitive to my son's questions. They also helped make sure my 5 year old daughter was entertained with their kid's DVD selections during our visits. Unfortunately, boys being boys, my son has had to replace his glasses more than once. I'm happy to say that my repeat visits have all exceeded my expectations. More recently, my daughter also needed an eye exam and glasses, so I took her to Rosin's. I was very happy with the exam and the help we received in selecting the right frames for her! Although I believe there was a change in staff from my first last year, the service and attention has continued to be great! In addition to purchasing my daughter's new glasses earlier this year, I recently returned to replace my son's damaged frames. Both kids really enjoy stopping at Rosin's and they've gotten to know Daisy fairy well, (I believe she's the manager). I find her to be very professional and she's made it "fun" for them and always has a big smile when they walk in. Thankfully, she's been very patient with each of the children and made sure they selected frames they really liked and were within my budget. I will definitely buy my next pair of glasses at Rosin's in Glenview!

The parking lot is a mess and it takes time to park. I should've been earlier but all the same there was not one person in the store and they refused to take me. I had driven across town and I left. I will never do business with them again.

After trying my new contact prescription, something felt a little off. I called the office and he was extremely helpful and understanding. He offered for me to come back and recheck my prescription. He made sure everything was perfect and comfortable. I've gone to so many eye doctors in the past 25 years and Dr. Kohn is by far the best one I've ever had. He's just a doctor who cares- which I feel is rare these days. I won't hesitate to bring my kids and husband when they need their eye exam. Everyone in the office is extremely nice, friendly, and helpful. Sometimes unkind office staff kind of ruin your experience, but that will not happen here. There's just an overall culture of being kind and taking good care of patients throughout the office. I'm so glad I took the chance to try Wilmette eye care, because I'm so happy here!

Was told it would be a few days and they may arrive by the end of the week. Didn't hear back the next week, didn't hear back the following week. After calling, I was told my order would be ready 03/07. Picked up my glasses and as soon as I got them home and cleaned, I realized there was a pinpoint dot in the coating on one lens. Came back to drop them off to be repaired on 03/09. Was told they'd be repaired in a few days. Called 03/16 and was told they'd call me back. Called 03/17 after not hearing from them and was told that "maybe they'd be ready by the end of the week". I did everything right. I went to a local business, I spent almost $500, I called every step of the way to remind them. I got FAR better service at a chain and it was free. Last time I ordered glasses I spent nothing out of pocket and they arrived in a week and a half. It's been almost a month, I paid $500, and I still don't have my glasses. And no one who works here returns phonecalls. Don't patronize this shop. The service is worse than a chain and in the four times I've had to visit the store, no one has been in it. Small wonder.

    This is the worst practice I've been to and I've had glasses or contacts for 25 years and many…read moreoptometrists. The first thing the optometrist says to me, even before asking my name, looking at my file, or doing an exam is if I want to try daily contacts. This is not based on anything medical. He says they're much better and they only cost 30% more than monthly which I currently use. Well he can't do simple math because I found out later that they are actually 300% more- even with rebates and insurance. The lenses on the equipment are dirty and cloudy which makes the eye exam harder to do. They ask me if I want to try daily's. I said sure why not I'll try them. And they will not give me a prescription until I try them. Well it's nice but not enough for me to pay over $800 a year for contacts. I request a written prescription so I can buy my regular contacts online where it is half the price. They send over a prescription for a specific brand of daily contacts. I say no I want monthly. They say they can't give me a prescription for monthlies unless I try them. What?! They never told me this when giving me the sample. I didn't know I was committing to getting daily contacts when they handed me 5 days worth of lenses. They insist and say other optometrists don't care as much about their customers which is BULLSHIT. So I have to go in AGAIN and get the sample. After a few weeks, I request a prescription for monthlies. They send me the daily prescription again!! So I ask them again- please send me a monthly prescription. They do send one but it is again BRAND SPECIFIC to B&L. I didn't realize that until I tried to order myself new contacts online and it was denied. Because I tried to buy a different brand of monthly contacts that I prefer and know very well after using contacts for over 20 years. So how many calls and visits does it take to get the single prescription I need? With all of my previous optometrists- it was one simple email after my eye exam. None of them have tried to sell me super expensive, brand specific daily contacts. BEWARE OF THIS UNETHICAL AND INCOMPETENT PRACTICE.
