Alaska Eye Care Center has been my vision specialist for decades. Dr. Reber has been my doctor for…read morea long time. I have always found the care provided here to be top notch...professional, caring, competent, and friendly.
Dr. Reber caught my need for, and encouraged me to have, cataract surgery. This turned out to be one of the two very best health-related actions I have ever taken (the other was my back surgery, performed by the great folks at Anchorage Neurosurgical Associates). Ten years later, as I started noticing some visual blurring, Dr. Reber caught the forming of so-called secondary cataracts (clouding of the back of the sacs which hold the new lenses installed as part of my initial surgery, something that often happens around ten years after the initial surgery). Once again, I wrnt to the great people at Pacific Cataract and Laser Instutute, my treatment took all of two minutes, and I walked out of there with perfect vision restored.
I am a Medicaid recipient. This is noteworthy for two reasons. One, from the time when I was well-employed and insured to now when my fortunes are far less substantial, there has been absolutely no change in the way they have treated me at Alaska Eye Care. Second, though Medicaid does cover glasses, there are a limited nu.ber of frames (as it should be). Unfortunately, the metal that eligible frames are made of reacts negatively with my body chemistry. The first pair I got under Medicaid left a discoloration on my face and some irritation. When I told them this at my second pair of Medicaid glasses over a year later, they took my glasses back and shrink-wrapped the ear peices! This simple service made all the difference. I was comfortable wearing my glasses and had no discoloration.
Alaska Eye Care will always be my Eye Care Providers. Thank you. Alaska Eye Care Center! And, especially, thank you, Dr. Reber!
