It hasn't even been 24 hours yet and my vision is so clear. I'm experiencing very minimal discomfort and I feel fully ready to take on the world. Thank you!

What's concerning is that this only happened after I specifically asked them to review my scans again. Had I not pushed for a second review, I genuinely worry they may have proceeded with surgery despite the risks. I also requested a direct explanation from the doctor and never received one. Instead, I had to repeatedly call the office just to get basic answers and speak with someone knowledgeable. My impression is that the process felt far more focused on moving patients through surgery than on patient safety and communication. I would strongly encourage anyone considering a procedure here to ask detailed questions, seek a second opinion, and carefully review whether they are truly a good candidate before moving forward. I also felt the recovery expectations were presented in a way that understated how difficult and lengthy recovery can actually be.

    Was my go-to place, but this past experience was so horrible, I don't recommend them anymore…read more This year, I could get a new pair of glasses with my insurance, so I selected a pair in Dec with my new adjusted prescription. When they came in, the lenses were made incorrectly and looked all warped. I went back, worked with the technician to figure out the issue but he was stumped on the problem, and submitted a request to rework the lenses. 3 weeks later I came back again, but they were still made wrong. I was told I needed to come back only when Ben, the initial tech, was in. The Tech apologized, looking at my chart of how the issues had developed and said that he would add a 30% discount on my next purchase. I scheduled time with the initial tech for today, but when I arrived, he was out at lunch. The receptionist rudely told me I could wait 45 minutes to see him if I wanted to. I asked to leave a note, just so that he could call me and she said "sure" and never took down any of my info, just decided there were other things on her desk more important. I then asked her for a refund on the glasses, expressing that I had come back multiple times to try to fix this issue but its an hour round trip drive from me and I have to get child care arranged every time to move this along. She gave me a blank stare, when I asked questions about how a refund would be processed, and just said that the technician would call me back to discuss. The technician called back an hour later just to let me know that a refund was on the way. Nothing else, no apologies that they messed up my lenses, or the time wasted trying to fix. I truly am a very patient person and I understand mistakes happen - I just wanted to be treated like a human, and not discarded because I expected my glasses to be functional. I think this Optometrist group NVDO is so large now, they don't really care about any one patient - if you aren't an easy case to process, they'll waste your time and give you a run around until you ask for a refund and leave.

Each visit is filled with warm greetings, excellent customer service and laughter. It's never a dull moment. It's always so pleasant and everyone is super helpful and nice. I have to give a shout out to Mrs. Wendy. She is simply the best. Each visit, Mrs. Wendy has assisted me in selecting glasses and I have loved each pair. I think I look forward to seeing her versus having my actual appointment. The front desk receptionist is also a joy as well. Always so helpful and friendly and is sure to remind you of your next appointment. If you have not visited the Clarendon location, I highly recommend. Simply the best customer service, COVID restrictions in place and you feel comfortable.

    I am writing this review with 2 days post op and with my new 20/15 vision! I had been looking to…read moreget LASIK for the past year and decided that this would the perfect time due to being able to work from home. A few things attracted me to EDOW: the convenient location (in Tyson's), the latest LASIK technology, the experienced doctors, transparent website with all the forms, risks, videos, etc. and it not being a massive chain. There was also a $1000 off promotion for PRK and Custom LASIK when I scheduled. I like that each LASIK procedure included a customized eye mapping to prevent some of the negative side effects (halos, glare, etc.) which I learned is not standard for all practices. The whole process was seamless from the initial free consultation that I was able to schedule for the following day to the post operative appointments. The initial consultation included a standard eye exam, cornea mapping, vision evaluation and eye health exam. Jon was extremely helpful in answering questions and explaining each step. My eyes were healthy and my corneas were thick enough so I was approved! I was able to schedule the pre-op, LASIK surgery and post-op immediately after the appointment. For the next two weeks, the tech instructed me to wear my glasses to allow my eyes to return to its natural shape. All the appointments are confirmed online which is very easy. The pre-op only took about 45 minutes. This is when my eyes were dilated, mapped, and the "true" prescription was assessed for the surgery. They also ordered my prescriptions through Friendly's Pharmacy for delivery to my home. The antibiotic and corticosteroid drops were delivered the following day. All very easy! The actual surgery day was about 2 weeks later at 2pm on a Thursday. I was in and out within 35 minutes! In the first room, Jon administered a bunch of drops (numbing, antibiotics, others) and also gave me a Valium. They also gave me glasses, eye shields, post care instructions and some lubricating drops for home. A few minutes later I walked to the LASIK suite where I laid down for the procedure. Dr. Kang explained each step and the expected feelings and sounds so I was completely at ease. I never felt any pain whatsoever. The first machine applied some pressure my eyes one at a time, my vision went temporarily blurry and then I was moved to the next machine to reshape the cornea. I focused on the green light and noticed the slight burning smell. But felt I absolutely no pain or discomfort at this point. The whole procedure lasted maybe 5-7 minutes. I then went a another room where Dr. Kang evaluated my eyes. I was then sent on my way! My vision was already was about the same as when I wore glasses just sensitive to light and a bit hazy. The first 2 hours were probably the most uncomfortable since my eyes felt heavy from the drops and I felt a bit dizzy. I napped with my face mask and new eye shield since my eyes just felt sensitive and tired. Two hours later I felt like a completely different person. I did wear sunglasses inside to avid glare and diligently began my eye drop regime. I was able to watch TV and that night without an issue. The following day was magical as I woke up with better vision than I had with contacts. I had very little dryness and none of the halos/glare/redness people talk about. That morning, I drove myself to for the post op where the optometrist said I had 20/15 and with almost no inflammation or discomfort. I even ran that afternoon. I would HIGHLY recommend this practice if considering LASIK. Everyone was extremely professional, knowledgeable and skilled. I attribute my speedy recovery and excellent results to them. Just remember those drops!!

    doctors are great, but phone staff are totally useless. do…read morenot get eyes done with differnt focus. causes severe vertigo. paid $10k for edof and still need glasses. astigmatism in one worse than before. although dipaolo is a pain, go there. i know two patients who are very happy. best thing about cataract surgery is being able to drive at night.

I was charged $286.43 because the visit was incorrectly billed as a medical exam instead of a routine eye exam. As a result, my insurance company denied the claim, and I had to pay out of pocket. In 2024, I contacted my insurance company and was informed that the billing code used was incorrect. I then requested that the office resubmit the claim using the correct code, and they agreed to do so. When I followed up with the office today, I was informed that the claim was never resubmitted and that I would need to submit it myself. However, when I contacted my insurance company today, they advised me that the claim is now outside the two-year filing limit and that I am no longer eligible to request reimbursement.

Dr. Beck is also extremely down to earth and is willing to answer all of your questions, big or small, in a way that you can understand. He is efficient and thorough. Not only do I go here but so do my children and he's so patient with them. He has a great bedside manner and won't rush you through the exam. He's also pretty funny and makes the whole process fly by. I recommend everyone I know to visit Eyekare Express for their vision needs. I don't really care for flashy and modern places like Warby Parker; I'm the kind of person who focuses on the service and value of everywhere I go and Eyekare express checks all of those boxes for me.
