It seems pretty obvious that before installing brand new lenses that the frames should be prepped and cleaned. Not very happy with this laziness.

Earlier this week [I believe Wednesday] I had to make an emergency trip to IECA because I had…read morebroken my glasses in a hot tub accident. Seeing as they were the first ones open, I had picked them solely for that reason. I gathered up my two glasses fragments and off I went. When I arrived, I was confused - they had been open only 45 minutes, but they already had a wait for a repair. Concerned, I went to get a little coffee-and, returned in about 40 minutes, and they still hadn't gotten to my glasses. I was a little surprised, but I chose to wait. The technician [whose name I did not get] picked up my broken glasses after about 10-15 more minutes. Needless to say, the technician was EXCELLENT. Most places near DC where I live would have driven the screw, swiped a cloth at the lenses and called it a day. The technician: drove the screw to repair the glasses, replaced my nose pads, re-adjusted my frames back to how they originally fit, and sealed the screws with nail polish [probably common to others, but unheard of to me]... for NO charge! In fact, she refused my offer for payment, and told me to spread the word. So here I am, spreading it. EXEMPLARY customer service.

I will say, before you go, check with your insurance prior to going. I assumed I was going for a routine eye exam which meant I wouldn't have a copay. However, I found out after speaking with insurance and calling the office that "all eye exams are considered diagnostic due to it relating to the health of your eye, not just your vision". I don't mind paying the copay for the extra service. That aside, I saw Kristy Dean and she was very friendly, explained everything well and made sure to answer any questions I had. They do ask if you'd like to try the new lenses they offer. However, I didn't receive any backlash for opting out nor did Kristy try to continue pushing them after I opted out. It's important to add that I do buy my glasses online (it's far more cost efficient), so I can't speak to that end of things.

TLDR: My wife and I had new patient eye exams at Sirgany and everything seemed to be fine until we…read moreboth decided we did not need to buy new $800+ glasses with fancy prism lenses from them. Due to incompetence, shirking of responsibility, and shady nickel and diming, we will not be returning. I should have taken it as a hint that appointments were so much easier to get here vs. Cortland Eye Center. I can't speak to how good that place is, but it can't be any worse than Sirgany. First, during my wife's exam, Dr. Sirgany said my wife's eyes had gotten slightly worse, yet the prescription we received showed a dramatic improvement in one eye. Hmm... After multiple attempts to brush away our concerns without listening to details and just saying "improvements happen sometimes," the staff FINALLY talked to the doctor, who admitted his mistake. I would have had no problem with this, as it was simply a 0 where a 1 should have been. Not an enormous deal. It was the multiple phone and in-person conversations with staff who were unwilling to even fathom a mistake had happened that were the bigger problem. Had I not been persistent, my wife would have ended up paying for glasses with the wrong prescription. We're not done yet, though! A couple weeks later we both received bills from their office for co-pays. That's weird... My insurance specifically says that a routine eye exam is fully covered. Well, because we both simply mentioned symptoms that either a) do not affect our vision or b) are incredibly common with no clear links to our vision, they submitted diagnostic codes for these "health issues" to my insurance company. This changed our appointments from a routine exam to a clinical/specialist visit, incurring a co-pay charge. There was no discussion from the doctor that this was happening either. The insurance company said all Sirgany had to do was submit a corrected claim with routine codes (like they should've done in the first place). They refused. I've always been open with my doctors during checkups, discussing potential problem areas, and I have never been charged a co-pay for routine visits. I guess we should've kept our mouths shut with the Sirgany office.
