No exaggeration, finding Dr Sheen and this vision center was one of the best things to happen to me…read morein 2018. It wasn't until my insurance changed and I was forced out of my comfort zone to find a place that was covered, that I researched and ended up choosing Eye Life Vision. Staff at front desk are friendly and helpful. The intake forms are tricky and need some revisiting (the idea of wipe off markers on laminated forms is good in theory but when the makers start to wear this just turns into a mess). But we're here for glasses and contacts, and this is what I'm reviewing. Dr. Sheen answered all my questions, spent significant time checking my eyes, catching an issue that had previously been overlooked by my last Optometrist, was thorough, answered all my questions and was very personable. I was worried I wouldn't find frames that would fit my head correctly but we did (and they rock!). Dr and front desk staff helped me with rebates for my contacts as well. It added up to $$ but given I chose the most expensive frames available I can't complain. The lenses for my glasses were made by a lab that makes Nikon camera lenses (I believe this is what she said) and are extremely high quality. I have NEVER seen so clearly and well with glasses. I literally almost cried when I put them on. Completely blown away, I still can't believe how well I can see. I don't think you can put a price on clear vision especially when you have astigmatism and significant light sensitivity. Thank you!!!!

From the moment I walked in, I found a friendly front staff. The beauty of the grand room ,complete…read morewith chandeliers above and so many eyeglasses to try on, made me feel that this would be a fun experience for sure. Dr, Sheen is so easy to talk to and so knowledgeable so I have always felt in the best of hands to protect my eyesight as I grow older. Appointments are easy to make . One New Year's Eve I had a problem with something in my eye. They took me at 4pm and kindly assured me that I was not holding them up although I'm sure I did! I have been with this practice for many years and am grateful to have found them.

Our experience was nothing like several of other Yelpers. Our appointment went smoothly, and unless…read morethey screw up getting our order ready on time, we can offer mostly praise and thanks. We managed an appointment within a week of calling -- very rare! -- and were taken to see the doctor with less than five minutes waiting. The exam was carefully done, eyes dilated, and the waiting precess comfortable. When it came time to pick out glasses we had a reasonable choice of affordable frames, though if you have the cash they have some really upscale frames (think Tiffany, Coach, etc.) They didn't push us to buy more, much appreciated, and they helped fit the frame and got us out in not much over an hour. We thought the doctor, the front desk staff and the young woman who fitted us were knowledgeable and helpful. This is not a large operation, but the interior is clean and they have a nice public restroom. Curiously, the outside of the building looks abandoned with grass and shrubs way overgrown. Somebody needs to fix that right away. We initially thought the place was shut down. But -- unless they get our prescription wrong or it is delayed arriving, we'll stick with four stars.

Waited 25 plus minutes after appointment time and was told they had no clue but was going to be a…read morelot longer. I guess you need to get first appointment of the day and this does not seem to be the first time. Will look to go elsewhere

"And I will sing Waiting for the gift of sound and vision"…read more(David Bowie) One of the side effects of living in your town for almost 40 years is that your doctors eventually retire and you'll need to find a replacement. It happened with my primary care physician (as well as his replacement). It happened to my dentist. And it happened to my eye doctor. So that explains why in December 2015, I became a patient of Solinsky Eye Care when they took over my eye doctor's practice upon his retirement. Solinsky has ten locations across Connecticut, and I visit Dr. Jessica Olewnik at the Avon office. She has been fantastic to work with. She is friendly, personable, and extremely thorough and helpful. Solinsky is very proactive on keeping up with technology and industry advances. Did you have one of those field of vision exams? Just a few years ago, the current technology would have you stick your face into a contraption that reminded me of a submarine captain peering into a periscope, like Sean Connery did in "The Hunt for Red October". Well, that is no longer state of the art. Yesterday I had the same test using a Virtual Reality headset! And I have to mention Solinsky's Front Desk Associate (I'm embarrassed I can't remember her name) who may be the greatest goodwill ambassador I've ever seen in a medical setting. She's been there forever and is a holdover from Solinsky's predecessor.

I've been having trouble with my eyes, they would water all the time, hence making me look like I'm…read morealways crying. I called Solinsky Eye Care. They gave me an appointment for a week after I called. I arrived there at 7:30 am, Angela the Ophthalmic Nurse was very friendly, patient and sweet. She did some tests on my eyes, until the doctor arrived. Doctor Olewnik, confirmed I have dry eye. She prescribed me eyedrops, also gave me a sample of the same drops, so I could use them immediately, until my prescription arrived in the mail. My eyes have healed nicely, and are no longer watering. I'll be returning to Solinsky Eye Care for future eye care needs.

I just finished my first eye appointment with Dr. Khaliq. And I am quite pleased. Dr. Khaliq lives…read moreup to a lot of the fine words other reviews have written about him here and elsewhere. He spent quality time answering my questions without rushing me - this is a big deal for me - but even more importantly his answers rang with intelligence & experience & compassionate sincerity. He came up with a solution for an issue I have been having with binocular alignment, and he did it in a way that the two previous eye-doctors with much fancier offices couldn't see. Guess even eye doctors can be blind to some things. An example of the compassionate attitude present in this office: I am considering LASIK and I asked him at the end, "If I was a family member of yours and said 'I want to do LASIK', what would you say to me about the surgery?" He earnestly said: " I consider all family and patients the same, so no need to worry - and I'll tell you..." This attitude was backed up by his receptionist who told me a story of how he had dramatically helped her and seen her free of charge when she didn't have insurance - now she works for him, full-heartedly. Good crew here. Humble office, simple room & everything you need: solid intelligence, experience & good heart.

From the owner: Dr. Khaliq is a board certified ophthalmologist and fellow of the Royal College of Surgeons. He has…read moreover 30 years of experience as a private practitioner and is affiliated with most hospitals in the Greater Hartford area. He places an emphasis on compassionate medicine and prides herself on giving his patients the most personal care possible. In this vain, Dr. Khaliq personally handles all stages of your eye care from the moment you walk into the office. Dr. Khaliq has performed thousands of procedures from in-office surgeries to corneal transplants. Some common procedures are routine eye exams, Contact lens fitting, dry eyes, cataracts, Glaucoma, Corneal transplants, Strabismus (cross-eyes), laser surgeries, and cosmetic procedures (droopy or baggy lids).
