Dr Strain is never "rushed", always takes time and explains my options so I can make an informed decision for my vision. I highly recommend Dr. Strain and the super-friendly and caring staff at Pittsburgh Eye Care. read more

Will not return. They gave me a bunch of issues and tried to charge me when things were covered (They did tell me a head of time about the $40 charge though). They had my insurance but did not apply it until I questioned them before paying. They charged me for a "specialty fitting" which was unneeded, and she wrote me a prescription for the wrong size contacts anyways. They would not provide the prescription on paper the day of the appt, I had to call and have it faxed because I was not ordering contacts through them since it was going to cost almost double. So at the end of the visit, they were able to overcharge me about $5 undeserved (since I questioned everything) and I am stuck with ill fitting contacts for a year. read more

Our first visit to Vision Source. We saw Dr. Wendel. She is a delight! She explained everything about the OCT eye scan and how it shows indicators of our health. My husband and I moved here 3 years ago and I have been to two different optometrists before Dr. Wendel. But no more searching. See Dr. Wendel. You won't be sorry. read more

This was my first visit to Dr Strain and the Bridgeville office. I was treated with great care and friendly no-pressure conversation. My eye tests were done on the most advanced machines and the results were shared with me immediately. Very thorough testing for cataracts, glaucoma, and Macular Degeneration. All these test results were described in detail. I am looking forward to my next visit to this office to take advantage of my Vision Insurance. I highly recommend this site and its staff especially to those of us approaching "senior" stage of life! read more

Dr. Crawford and all of the techs were fantastic. My issues arose with Vision Source whenever I tried to place an order for contacts. When ordering contacts you need the eye base size. Vision Source forgot to document this information therefore, I was unable to order contacts. I needed this to order contacts and now I have to wait 5 business days until the doctor gets back from vacation because of an issue on their behalf. Judy, the receptionist, was VERY rude. In fact, she was laughing about this matter. My vision is now on hold because of them. I won't be back! read more

I've been going to Vision Source for years. The staff is very friendly and efficient and Dr. Strain is Comprehensive. She is very kind and never rushes. The mechanic devices in the office are efficient and test the eyes thoroughly. I have recommended Dr. Strain for my 4 yr old grandson to be checked, also. I've given vision Source a five star rating because it is an excellent business. read more

The receptionists are the friendliest and happiest ladies I've ever seen working in a doctors office. They make the initial welcome so nice, every time. Dr. Crawford is so knowledgeable and takes time to help educate me throughout our appointments. She's truly brilliant in her profession (specializes in dry eyes which is a plus for me). I love the flexible evening hours so I can make it after work hours. My husband goes here too. Great office! read more

I see Dr Strain, she is the best. Great staff, very helpful. Feels like you are visiting your "good" relatives, you know, like you sit and talk about other people you both know. I highly recommend this office. Very proffessional and most importantly, up to date equipment. read more

Dr. strain is helpful, and an amazing doctor! I DO NOT recommend the staff however. They are curt on the phone... seem bothered by simple questions... and are often quite rude. If you make an attempt to reach Dr. strain directly... good luck! I phoned and left four messages and two messages on line... and FINALLY got a call back 10 days later. It would not surprise me if Dr. strain did not get the first few messages. I feel the staff tried to block me from talking to her. read more

Dr. Strain is the best! She is technically astute and very personable. She never rushes through a visit and always answers any questions completely and in in terms I can understand. I have been seeing her for eye care for many years and will continue to do so. I highly recommend her to others who are looking for the best eye care available. read more

I actually enjoy going to the eye doctor now!! The facility is clean, the staff is friendly and professional. The office uses an electronic record system that keeps very thorough patient details. High-tech imaging and scanning equipment is used. Both Dr. McCann and Dr. Strain take their time with patients - even when I was the last appointment of the day, they weren't kicking me out the door and rushing my care! In fact, the staff even ran across the street and put more money in the meter for my car b/c I was concerned my time had run out! Can't say enough positive things about this office, only downside is limited parking (usually have to go for meters) in the downtown Bridgeville area but otherwise I'm a very happy customer! read more

I was sent to Vision Source South Hills for a second opinion. I enjoyed my appointments with Dr. Strain and found her to be knowledgable and attentive. However, I was incredibly displeased with how I was treated by the staff. I went through my vision insurance with a staff member and assumed this information was added to my file. I called a month or so later to order contacts and was told I could not pay for the contacts when I came and picked them up; I needed to pay for them over the phone. I have never paid for contacts before picking them up before but I figured it wasn't a big deal, just differences between offices. Once I got the statement for my order, I realized that they had charged me the full amount and not run anything through my insurance company. I called back and was met with no answers, saying they would call me back later. They never did, so I called back again and finally learned that my vision insurance had never been added to my file. After going through my information a second time, they then assured me they would file a claim with my insurance company and I would receive a check soon. Never once in this back and forth did anyone from the staff apologize or recognize that they had made a mistake. In fact, everyone I talked to seemed more agitated that they now had to reprocess the claim. A month later, I received my refund along with an updated billing statement. Amongst the revised patient/insurance payment was a statement describing why the revision was necessary. It read: "patient originally did not say to use insurance and paid in full for contacts-decided a few days later she would like us to bill vsp and refund her the remaining balance". This is the first medical establishment I have come in contact with that required me to advise them of my desire to use my medical insurance. Professional medical establishments run benefit checks and inform the customer of their costs prior to performing the service. While I feel Dr. Strain is a highly qualified ophthalmologist, I am exceedingly disappointed in the professionalism and efficiency of the office staff. At this point, I do not see myself returning in the future. read more

I have been seeing Dr. Strain for a few years now. I am so happy with the care I receive at Pittsburgh Eye Care Association that I will not go to another doctor. Everyone in the office is so nice and professional! They always take the time to explain everything to me so I understand. They also make sure to take the time to find the best contacts for me. Also, I have never had to wait long to see the doctor! I used to live about 5 minutes away from the office but I recently moved. I now live about an hour away and will still make the drive to see Dr. Strain because I know there is no other eye doctor I would rater see! read more

I have gone to this practice for years and highly recommend them. I have tried others due to insurance changes but have never been satisfied and always go back. read more

Going to the doctor is never fun, except in those rare experiences like one I had today. The Pittsburgh Eye Care center is accommodating, enjoyable and in general a nicely run establishment. They were able to get me in early due to my error at writing down the wrong appointment time and had me laughing throughout. The thoroughness of all of the staff is outstanding as well. I would highly recommend the Pittsburgh Eye Care Center. read more

Highly recommend if you are looking for an optometrist or considering Lasik. I've been going here for almost five years and always receive excellent care. Dr. Strain is very knowledgable and always takes the time to to address any issue or concern. I went through this office for Lasik and it was great. She was informative, thorough and I felt completely at ease for the entire process. The staff has always been pleasant and they give the appropriate time for each appointment. read more

I have had two very positive experiences here with both Dr. Strain and Dr. McCann. Also, Rich is always so helpful when choosing frames and keeping you looking good and seeing clearly. I'm so glad I started coming here after having gone to discount places again and again and feeling like a number passing through the system. I'm a very satisfied customer. read more
