Complete transparency, Dr. Miles is always fantastic, but the staff at her old location was not. The ENTIRE staff at Kirkwood Eye Associates is fantastic! They are always super helpful and go out of their way to ensure you have a great visit and don't leave with a bunch of unanswered questions. They take as much time as needed to walk you through everything, explain everything and what I like most is there is never pressure to spend money. In fact, they suggest ways to save you money in a lot of cases. If you need contacts, glasses, whatever - look no further, Kirkwood Eye Associates is the best!

I reached out to the Des Peres Eye Center as a new patient. I called the location (Arnold, separate…read morephone number) where I wanted to have my appointment. I confirmed that they took my insurance. When I arrived at my appointment, I learned that it was at the Manchester location. After driving across town to the Manchester location, I informed the receptionist that I called the Arnold location initially, but they set my appointment for the other location, but never told me. And that even though there are separate phone numbers for the two locations, they both go to the Manchester office, but there is nothing noting this. She didn't seem to care or realize the confusion this would cause. I then handed her my insurance card when she informed me that they don't take my insurance. She explained that they take the medical insurance with my company, but not the vision insurance (this is an eye center). At this point, I cancelled my appointment and left. Huge waste of time!

Several test were performed by staff and a lot of waiting in between. It was more like a cattle call. Too many people scheduled in one day.

I recommend scheduling less patients instead of trying to see an exorbitant amount of people to pad their pockets.

They needed to remeasure my left eye to confirm the lens that would be implanted that was confirmed on December 3 when I arrived for my surgery on 17 December I had to wait over two hours and was told they were waiting for my lens to come. They performed the implant and when I got home, I that they had implanted the wrong lens, which was confirmed the following day. I was in scheduled for a second on the 19th during that anesthesia I felt extreme pain I could see both doctors and I even exclaimed in pain. Dr. Amato had assured me that they would send a note to my of work stating that my driving restricted due to of during driving in the letter was never sent and they closed for Christmas break, causing me to lose pay. I am very dissatisfied with ophthalmology associates. They treated the whole process like an assembly line. I would look into other options before I settled on ophthalmology .

We had the pleasure of knowing Dr McReynolds for about 10 years. Then lost touch with her when she moved to another practice. Then when we lived in Kirkwood and found out she had opened up West County Vision we were happy to have her close by again. She took care of all our family optician needs during our stay in Kirkwood. She is friendly, thorough, knowledgeable and compassionate. The office staff and optician will make sure you find the right pair of glasses that best suits you. We have never felt rushed, they take the time to get to know you and your family. West County Vision reminds me of that small town practice that knows their patients.

Everything about her office is spot-on: West County's staff is friendly & efficient, they have top-of-the-line diagnostic equipment, and Doc McReynolds is kind, perceptive, and professionally astute. She's also great with kids. The office has a selection of eye gear & frames in the lobby, and they will facilitate contact lens orders for you. It's definitely one of the most thoughtfully managed medical-related groups our family has used, and Dr. McReynolds stands above any optometrist we've met over the course of multiple-state relocations. The St. Louis/Kirkwood area is fortunate to have such a great resource.

But since the…read morepractice no longer belongs to him, his spirit of caring community and customer service is being slowly sucked out of the place. I will always come to him for my eye care, but my recent experience buying glasses was very disappointing. I was picking up my $1500 glasses and saw that they are offering a 40% discount on new glasses! I asked to have that applied to my $950 copay and they refused. Why? Because I used my insurance. Does it say that anywhere on the discount flyer? Nope. Not a whisper. It was very disappointing. Not because I didn't get the discount, but because I left there feeling incredibly disrespected and cheated. My hub and I will always see Doc for our eye care but they will never sell either of us another pair of glasses. 3/31/25: The utterly unresponsive response attached to this review actually makes it WORSE. No organization that "strives for 5-star" service acts like this. Now I've been disrespected AND dismissed. Learn from this, John D. If you aren't going to do something about your customers' complaints, don't be dismissive. Just say nothing.

My 3 kids and I have been patients here for several years and my husband recently became a patient…read moreas well. Today, I had a scheduled appt with my 15 year old daughter. We have always declined the optimap pictures, which is a little box you check on the paperwork. It has always said on the form, that if you decline the pictures, you will have your eyes dilated. ( Except during covid, they said it was required, so we all did the pictures at that visit.). The appt after that, we declined them and I asked Dr. Haring if my kids and I needed to do the dilation part of the exam, because the appt had wrapped up and it hadn't happened yet, but he said no, it's not necessary. Ever since, at each appt, we've done the same thing and we have never once been offered to dilate our eyes. I assumed they knew what they were doing and never questioned anything. At today's visit, the office manager tells me they have notes they've been keeping on me that I have refused dilation at every visit, which has absolutely never happened. I've never been to an appointment here without my kids having appointments as well. 18, 15 and 11. They have never been offered to have their eyes dilated either, nor have they ever witnessed me telling any staff member that I refuse having our eyes dilated. She started speaking to me as if I was some problematic patient, when we have been patients for years with no issues. Today they said insurance has changed and it's required to do one or the other, but that I cannot drive if I chose dilation. I was not sure what to do at that point. I didn't mind getting dilated today, I just was not sure about driving arrangements. I was also in complete shock that the office manager told me they have been keeping notes on me refusing dilation, something that I've never even been offered. In fact, was told it was not necessary at my second visit. I tried to figure out what was going on, but she refused to hear me out. The office manager was rude with me, telling me to chose or reschedule for January. Her tone and attitude towards me was completely unwarranted. She could not be bothered to try to remedy the situation. It's the most awful feeling being told you've done something that is completely false and having the office manager so unwilling to even hear what I was saying. She handled the situation so poorly. I chose to leave with my daughter without rescheduling. I prefer to find another office that does not keep false notes about patients and then treat them so terribly when they are surprised to hear that that's what's been happening. Why would they continue to see us, as patients, for so many years, if we refused something they required? Probably because it never happened, I've never refused anything. Why would anyone go to an eye doctor and not want the proper care? I don't even need contacts or glasses. I go to make sure my eyes are healthy. So unbelievably disappointed with how I was treated. Now that I am home, I wish desperately, I would have asked her "what in the world did I do for you to treat me this way?". Essentially calling me, a patient, a liar and not allowing the person she's made all these false notes about to try to figure out what in the world happened. I cannot describe the absolute disheartening feeling this woman left me and my daughter with. This family of 5 will find Eyecare elsewhere.

There was a deal 15% off 2 pairs so got a new pair of glasses and sunglasses for less than the last pair of glasses I bought and hated with insurance. They don't take insurance, but that's ok because their pricing is better all in than most insurance plans in my past experience. There is a 30 day return policy if you are not pleased with your selections one you get them. And a 6 month scratch cover on lenses.

For two separate surgeries the estimate and my payment for just the Surgery Center's part of the surgery was $800 over actual cost to me. When I called the Surgery Center to find out about the reimbursement for the overage of $800 I paid a month ago the representative was rude and said she has no idea when I will receive it. She curtly said it is out of her hands as another company ECB is responsible for the refund. She said there is no way to contact ECB and then told me not to attempt to challenge the estimated payment with my credit card company because the Surgery Center will promptly send out a duplicate bill with the same overestimated amount.

She told me, after testing my lens, that they had been made incorrectly. They were too strong in the L eye. I had only had this prescription for 4 months. I went to the store only to be treated poorly by manager. She acted like I was really putting her out. She actually rolled her eyes at me while talking to another salesgirl about what they should do. It was finally decided that they would put the correct lens in the frames. She needed my glasses to send back East. I told her I couldn't even drive home without my glasses. I won't go into all the details but, after a half hour of time it was decided they would lend me a pair of plastic frames and would put the incorrect lens in those frames and have new lens put in my old glasses they were sending away. They actually did what I wanted it was the lack of customer service, the faces the manager, Sara, made at me and just the unprofessional way I was treated that I had a problem with. BAD ATTITUDE !! It was THEIR mistake, you'd think they would have been pleasant so as not to lose a customer. I will never go back!

I should have read Lynn's review before wasting my time at J.C. Penney Optical. Neither their…read moreservice nor their expertise have improved since she had her horrible experience two years ago. DON'T GO THERE!! I wasted an hour on the biggest bait & switch ever.... I went in for the 2 pairs of glasses for $99 special. Having a cheap pair of spare glasses is a great idea, right? Right, but not from JC Penney Optical!! The bait is the 2 pairs of glasses for $99. The salesman assured me I could pick any frames in the store, and when I asked about the $35 upcharge for bifocals, he agreed those were the terms of the special. Still not a bad deal -- $170 for 2 spare pairs, right? Here's the switch: What the salesman DIDN'T tell me until he gave me my $685 total is that FRAMES are not included in the sale. Now since when does a "pair of glasses" not include a frame??? Oh, and the $35 upcharge for bifocals? Not per PAIR of glasses, it's per LENS. It's just as well, since I was getting a bit nervous after it took the salesman an hour to read my prescription, and he kept moving the ink dots on my lenses (the last time anyone used ink dots to measure pupillary distance for my glasses was in about 1974). I don't think the people at JCP Optical know what they are doing, and the "sales" are a joke. False advertising to get you in the store and to invest your time so you'll feel obligated to complete the sale, but if I wanted to spend that much, I'd go to Erker's and get a really high quality pair of glasses. Go to Costco or LensCrafters (two or three doors down at West County Mall) if you want to save a little money and still work with sales people who actually know how to read your prescription. They also know how to use 21st century technology.
