We used to go to Dr Cutler who was very rude and condescending, not to mention overpriced. These two doctors are like night and day. Dr McKervey seems to love what he does and it shows. Dr Cutler just seems to be driven by the Benjamins. So glad we made the switch and I would recommend him without hesitation.

I recently had another set of lenses made. If it's possible, these are the bet ever. The atmosphere, the pricing and most importantly, the staff are by far the best there is.

I used Ocean Optical to fill an eyeglass prescription and select frames, and they were super…read morefriendly and helpful. I highly recommend them. They have a fashion forward selection of frames, and the optical assistants will definitely help you to select a frame and offer advice on what looks best. (They wear a variety of fashionable frames themselves, which I think is a good sign!) They are also good at explaining certain technical details about what frames work and don't work for certain types of prescriptions. Also, I had a small problem with a lens in the glasses, and they were very helpful with troubleshooting it and correcting it. Note: Ocean Optical doesn't take VSP insurance, but I think they will help you to meet your price-point.

As I got older, my visions has gotten more and more blurred. When I went to a laser eye doctor in…read moreBoston, I got a price list, starting at several thousand dollars (per eye). Needless to say, they didn't take Medicare. Then I went to Dr. Zanger right here in Gloucester. He did one eye, then a year later, the other. Both came out seeing like they did 60 years ago - and covered by Medicare. His exam is thorough and professional, and the results - at least for me - have been spectacular. We are really lucky to have Cape Ann Eye Specialists right here at home.

I called once on the phone and accidently called her by her first name, and she rudely corrected me saying " I am a doctor, don't call me by my first name! Then she ripped me off for $2,000.00. She could not get my progressive lens prescription right. She tried three times ordering three different lenses and none of them worked. She said she couldn't refund my money ($1,000.00). I asked her for my original lenses back at least and she said she threw them out (another $1,000.00 lost). When I told her how disappointed I was about the bad service, she said "I can't believe your talking to me like this, I'm a doctor!" Her mother was in the office doing all the cleaning up and answering the phone calls. Do not use this optometrist!

WARNING- Avoid this place. I finally switched to another optometrist after using Gurley for years…read more My appointments at Gurley's involved waiting an hour plus in his crowded waiting room. Once you are seen by the assistant and they put drops in your eyes, it's another 35 minutes sitting in a hallway not being able to see. They then take you in. At the place I gratefully have switched to, I have never waited more than 3 minutes to be seen. I also found out that the drops to dilate ones eyes work in a few minutes - not over 30 as told that's the time at Gurley's! So happy to have left this practice and so is my husband. It's sad to see lots of elderly people with their caregivers waiting for hours in the waiting room. Seems this org. cares more about $$$ than patients!
