I moved an hour away so I made the mistake of going to a local eye doctor - twice! And my eyes and head suffered so much from incorrect prescriptions.

The office said I could come by and they can try to find frames to match his lenses. They did not give up until they found frames for him! My son can't really see well without his glasses and he would have had to miss school if he couldn't get new glasses right away. They made sure that he could get new frames and went above and beyond for us. Their kindness and care for patients goes a long way.

This boutique eyeglass store is nestled on quaint State Street in Downtown Geneva, Illinois. Easy to find with ample free street parking. The store is well stocked with the most beautiful selection of designers frames available today. Blinka Optical has nothing in common with traditional eyeglass chain stores. The store showroom has a fresh look with well lit displays, making the shopping experience very pleasurable. If you are looking for unusual / fun frames or a a more traditional look, this place has something for everyone. They even have a large selection of kids glasses. I was very impressed with an unbreakable pair of children's glasses (with a 3 year warranty against any damage). Now for the staff.... Pam and Mia are extremely knowledgeable and extremely helpful when you need assistance with your selection. They take the time to listen to your wants, interest and needs. They are really good at making recommendations based on what YOU want. I could not believe how much knowledge they have with their product line. Now for the best part... every time I visit Geneva, I just have to stop in to Blinka Optical to see the latest and greatest in eyewear selection anywhere around. They always make me feel like family and I always look forward to shopping for AMAZING GLASSES! Some hard to find brands: Theo Ronit Furst Etnia Barcelona Woow Maui Jim Salt Orgreen Zero G ... and much more

Maureen is such an asset to the team. She took her time helping me find the perfect pair of glasses. I decided on a pair that I loved and once the cost was calculated, I felt terrible, but I just couldn't afford them. So we went back to the drawing board... and you know what? She couldn't have been more kind and patient :) so we picked out another pair of glasses that I absolutely LOVE and were right in my budget. They called me frequently with updates as to when my glasses and contacts would arrive. They ensured my contact lenses were comfortable for me and my glasses fit my face just right. They made me feel valued. As long as I live in the area, I will be a customer at Third Street Eyecare! I'd give more stars if I could.

Please note: I have amended/updated my original review below, as after another inquiry I was able…read moreto book an appointment on August 4th, and my insurance plan now seems to be accepted again. I commend them for being so kind, apologetic, and telling me "changes have been made." From what I was told, Dr. King was none too happy when he was personally informed that a long-time client was basically turned away at the door on the date of their appointment - willing to pay cash. My advice to anybody reading my first review below and who may fit this category - call them again and see if your insurance is now accepted or another arrangement can be made, as they told me "changes have been made since the new year". Also, I now believe you MAY be able to pay out of pocket if you choose. Just call to double check with them. Please see my review now for my latest appointment: August 4th appointment (updated review): VERY pleased with the appointment, punctuality in which I was taken (I was barely in the waiting room 5 minutes before being called), the technician who helped me (I believe her name was Amber - friendly, professional, very thorough, cute, cute glasses), and Dr. King who again was very thorough and very nice. Turns out my eye irritation was possibly allergy related (either on it's own, or POSSIBLY indirectly related to a possible condition I may have such as fibromyalgia or something auto-immune, and I was prescribed special eye drops for the next few months. I say "possible" because that diagnosis hasn't YET been made by my other doctors as far as conclusively. But, I at least have more information on how to comfort the eye discomfort I have been having for 6+ months thanks to my visit with Dr. King. I was very pleased with my visit and all the staff (I have been coming here pretty regularly since I have been a teenager) and will continue to come here for my eye-related needs. Again as stated above, if you had previous problems (the past year) with insurance providers or payment issues, please at least give them a second call to see if things may have changed or other arrangements can possibly be made.

I was battling an eye infection and came to Geneva Eye Clinic because it is close to my home and I…read morethought since it was a medical issue, my insurance would cover it. When I arrived, I was told they don't take either my eye or my medical insurance and I would need to pay cash. Okay, fine; at this point I am desperate so I pay the $265 exam fee. Dr. Hawkins saw me and said she thought I have a tear duct infection but didn't want to treat it "aggressively" with oral antibiotics yet. So she gave me eye drops and told me to follow up in 2 days... Here we are, 2 days later following up (oh, and there is a $145 fee for a follow up) with a raging infection in my eye, sitting in the waiting room waiting for a doctor. My appointment was over an hour ago and no one has apologized, acknowledged me, or anything. I've asked twice and have been told "shortly." If I hadn't already paid for my appointment and had I not really needed an eye doctor, I would've just found someone else to see another day. I suggest you look other places if you are looking for personal, quality, and friendly eye care.

How many Doctors do you…read moreknow that will take a call 5 minutes before they close on a Saturday, telling them that you have been referred from an urgent care doctor that "couldn't find anything wrong"? Dr. Atwell is the answer. He goes out of his way to take care of his patients. Usually I show up at the end of the year to get new glasses and that us usually that. His office didn't hesitate to stick around make sure I was cared for at the highest standard, given a prescription, a personal cell phone number in case things didn't get better with stern directions to call, and a follow up appointment "anytime you can come in" Monday. Dr Atwell is not a typical 9-5 doctor, he is a rare breed of physician that cares for his patients, will bend over backwards for his patients and provides the best standard of care. Batavia is a small town and more people need to know about Dr. Atwell. He and his staff are hidden gems in our little town. If you need eye care, even if its glasses, contacts or medical issues, you need Dr. Atwell. I haven't found anyone else that compares.
