When they called a couple of days before the appointment, the doctor's name they confirmed the appointment was with was not the same name I made the appointment with. It turned out that the M.D. ophthalmologist I made an appointment with transformed into a O.D. optometrist. The person on the phone stated they do the same thing. Hell no. Since the opthalmologist I have been seeing for years for both general and continuing concerns retired, I shall look again, but certainly not here.

He then proceeded to make up a fake African sounding word, pretending it could be my "tribe." He then said all I was missing was a bone through my nose! It was extremely racist and unprofessional. Later on, I heard him remark from across the room in front of everyone that he couldn't believe a client (who just walked out of the building) was 14 years old because "she got body!" Beyond inappropriate. It was an extremely uncomfortable experience and it is very unfortunate because Dr. Vaystub was lovely. If she has different locations where she works, I would visit her somewhere other than Riverdale Eye Care.

I broke my regular pair of glasses and the new ones I ordered were going to take 2 weeks. I'll be traveling for work next week so I wanted to get a pair or 2 to take with me. I called a few places to ask if they could do same day- I have a fairly light prescription and I wasn't going to be picky. After trying a few different places, I called this location and they said they could do a 3-5 day turnaround. So I went and explained my plight. The salesgirl was very bubbly and cheery and couldn't wait to help me out. We talked about my insurance and she gave me some options. The faster option was to go through their lab rather than insurance. I would have been fine with that but... Wait for it. So because I had ordered a replacement pair of glasses already, I had a picture of my prescription but they wanted me to get an eye exam anyway because it was handwritten. Ok, I get it. I signed up for the exam. 3 things to note about that experience: 1. The machine she used to read my prescription from my glasses was slightly off. She told me that happens and it was a "negligible" difference. Might be normal but worth mentioning. 2. She didn't dilate my pupils because the machine wasn't working. Now that I'm thinking about it I didn't get a full exam so I shouldn't have been charged for one. 3. (The most important) She shined the little laser in my eye for so long that I complained that my eye felt like it was melting!! She immediately turned it off and the exam was done. My eye is fine now but it was very uncomfortable for a long time. I went back out and now it's time to shop. Mind you, she has my insurance info and knows my situation. The first pair of glasses she shows me are Dolce & Gabbana. Then a Prada pair appeared. I've purchased designer glasses before - via insurance- so the cost has never really exceeded (I'll be generous) - $250. Granted I don't buy THOSE designer brands. In the end I had 4 options in front of me. I picked a pair and she asked if i wanted transitions and anti-glare. I only wanted transitions. A guy came over with a demo to show me why i needed anti-glare. I felt like I was at a timeshare presentation. I could feel the hard sell. And the attitude that comes when you say no to something. So she writes up the order and my total is over $700. I actually laughed. They went back and did some math, or checked my insurance but then the total was $500. Somehow I graduated from the very cheery, happy to help salesgirl to the other, "you need anti glare" guy. She was around in the background but clearly not as willing to help as before. I said I've never paid that much and he said it was because of the frames. Here's the kicker- he then shows me a section and says "you can look at the insurance frames if you want." I told them that I had gotten glasses for $175 (on sale) with transitions and he said he didn't know how that was possible and suggested that I got a fubar deal. I paid for my eye exam, got my prescription and left. At least with timeshare presentations I get a gift card. All I got from this was a dry eye, and a prescription. Neither of which I needed. I won't be returning.

I am a busy person, so it took me months to realize the mistake. In addition to that, the lenses are not good quality, they are scratched after a few months (and I have worn glasses all my life, so I know they should not be). I cannot say anything about their appointments, because I did not use that service. I will not go there ever again.
