Firstly, I can appreciate them being able to accommodate students and will give a discount for their eye exams in order to help us out. Secondly, they are 100 percent up front with everything and why they do what they do. Secondly, they have this machine that takes a picture of the inside of your eye which I've never seen before. Dr. Tang showed me the inside and which parts did what and it was soooooo interesting to me. Not everyone decides to have that level of transparency and make an effort into making a rapport with their clients. Stella was really great in recommending some lenses for myself that will help me in being able to combat the blue light that gets emitted from screens since I am constantly on the computer due to my school and my job. She was really interested in explaining everything to me. I love the fact that I can get all my documents emailed to me. My prescription, invoice and everything I need for insurance purposes will always be on my phone and computer when I need it. I'll see them in a few weeks to get my glasses since I'm waiting for some other insurance to kick in. But I wouldn't recommend anyone else for an eye exam, they're seriously amazing.

Finally got my eyes checked last week with Dr. Allyson Tang! The experience at this clinic is…read moreincredible - Dr. Tang is professional, very thorough with the eye examination, great at explaining, truly cares about her patients and wants the best for them. She is very patient and has a cheerful personality which puts a BIG smile on my face during my visit :) I felt very at ease in her hands. Staff was very friendly, helpful, and knowledgeable - overall, a very pleasant experience, thank you :) During the comprehensive eye examination, I got my pupils dilated. Be sure to bring a pair of sunglasses with you if you're driving - you will be sensitive to lights! Or you can purchase a fashionable pair in their dispensary. The clinic carries a great selection of brand name eyewear and sunglasses! We also did something called Optomap wide-field retinal scan, which carefully and thoroughly checks the inside of the eye for any hidden eye diseases, monitors suspicious areas and changes from year to year, and confirms that everything is healthy! During the visit, I also learned that Dr. Tang specializes in contact lens wear, LASIK consultation, and Ortho-K (AOK) overnight corrective contact lens for myopia control in children. You can also make an appointment online anytime using their real-time schedule - very convenient and easy to use. Thank you Dr. Tang for making sure my eyes are healthy and for giving me advise on how to maintain/improve my current eye health and vision with your expertise. Highly recommend Dr. Allyson Tang as your family optometrist!

Dr. Boikovitis was PHENOMENAL with her. It was the most detailed examination I have seen. He ran several eye tests and spoke to her and explained things in a way for her to understand instead of dismissing a "kid" and speaking only to the parent. We saw him again this year for a check up and again he was thorough and informative. The other employees there have been courteous and helpful in helping us select frames for her glasses. They have moved to a new location not far from the old one and it is a beautiful upgrade. Would definitely recommend this place and I will also be switching over to them for myself.

She really knows what she is doing and has a wide selection of reasonably priced frames. So glad my friend recommended me to her years ago. I know I am the first review.

I even emailed the owner to ask for help, and I never heard back. I had to fight to talk with the doctor who did the original prescription. She finally agreed to order a new pair of glasses. I asked for them to be rushed because of the special circumstance, and she assured me they would be, but now they're telling me they'll be ready on day 8 after I ordered them. I'm sure they won't be ready. They kept telling me the original pair would be ready on a certain day and they weren't. They lie to you to appease you. They never return messages.

It's so refreshing. We both found pairs we loved! Even though I live on the other side of the border now, I still come back here for glasses. That's saying a lot :)

He always takes the time to answer all of my questions and defuse my concerns. I never feel rushed and always feel confident that I am in good care. One major reason I was looking for another doctor was because my previous eye doctor always kept me waiting for at least an hour at a time before seeing me. It was extremely frustrating and disrespectful to my time. When I did finally see my doctor, she rushed me in and out as quickly as she could. When I had questions, she always appeared annoyed. Dr. Slivka has never made me wait for more than a few minutes and always welcomed my questions and inquires. Since seeing Dr. Slivka, I've convinced my whole family to make the switch too. Every single one of them have commented on how wonderful and unique Dr. Slivka truly is.

The eyewear dispensary there is also just as helpful, and will always go out of there way to get you what you need.

I visited Dr. Permack a month ago for my annual eye exam after hearing positive reviews from…read morefriends about his services. I was in the market for a new optometrist after moving here a couple years ago, so took my friends up on their review and decided to book an appointment. Dr. Permack was extremely kind, patient, and attentive. He took the time to run a number of tests on my eyes and make sure I was completely satisfied with the final prescription he prescribed. I also really appreciated that Dr. Permack paid attention to my family's ocular history and ensured that he ran a cornea mapping exam with some fancy new equipment he had! What most impressed me with Dr. Permack was that he was able to teach me how to put in contact lens and found me a type that I really liked. I've been resisting contacts for years now, and was so surprised when he was able to give me a pair of contacts that I could barely feel and actually could see through! All in all, I would recommend Dr. Permack without hesitation. If you're looking for a talented, conscientious optometrist, make sure to give him a call. Bonus points: Dr. Permack has these hilarious test 'glasses' that you can put on that let you test the prescription he recommends. Ask him to try them on and you'll see what I'm talking about.

The end result is that I am extremely pleased with both sets of glasses - truly the definition of "As good as it gets" (aka 5 stars!)
