Annual eye exam. Was taken care of by a great team. Clean facilities, pleasing waiting area and nice eyewear display. I am 76 and in relatively good health. My eyesight has always been important to me but moreso now as age becomes a factor. I have all the confidence and trust that my vision care is in the best hands at First Eye Care Killeen.

This was my first visit to First Eye Care and it was awesome, from the receptionist to the tech (Mariah)! Everyone was friendly and professional. Dr. Kocian was thorough and knowledgeable. If you're looking for a great experience in eye care and wear, check them out!

I love this eye care place and the best part is that it is compatible with Tricare. It is quick and easy in order to get a routine eye exam here. I believe that I will go nowhere else for my glasses and/or contacts.

Dr Reyes and staff are polite, professional and put you at ease. However, was told new glasses would be ready in seven to ten business days, it has now been over three weeks and still waiting. Not the best way to make patients feel warm and fuzzy about your business.

I looked for awhile for a good place to get my eyes examined and a new prescription. I’m so glad I chose this one. The staff were kind and courteous. My eye exam was extremely thorough. I never felt rushed or pressured through my exams. The Dr spent time to answer all my questions. While I was choosing my glasses, the young man who helped me was knowledgeable and went through everything with me even when I changed one of the options I had chosen at the start. I would highly recommend this office for all your eye care needs.

I took my 2 year old for his first eye, & I loved it! They were all very friendly, the facility was so clean/tidy and the Dr. That attended my little one was excellent with him. We will go back next year for his regular eye exam. Definitely recommend going to first eye care!

From the moment you enter this business, you can feel the warmth and friendliness of the employees. All made me feel welcomed. The receptionist was very patient and answered all of my questions with clarity. The second lady, who I assume is like the assistant, was just as patient. She walked me though all the steps she was taking me through and explained what each piece of equipment was used for in the process. When the doctor arrived, he too was thorough and again explained all he did while he was doing it. His instructions were extremely clear and precise and his demeanor was calm and professional

I have always loved First Eye Care, but they just seem to continue getting better! From the moment you enter the building to leaving everyone is so friendly and knowledgeable. They have always been accommodating in letting me schedule our whole family in one trip as well and making sure we get the best possible deal with our insurance. Love the new location as well- more convenient and beautifully done!

This would have been 5 stars if it wasn't for the Unfriendly front desk lady.

I injured my eye really bad and my husband called and got me in the same day! I got lost (had trouble seeing) and they were still where nice enough to accommodate me being seen.

When I walked in, the front desk lady seemed very annoyed and was having a bad day possibly? I walked in saying how Sorry I was for being late and how much pain I was in. She said nothing other then that I was going to have to fill out paperwork. She handed me the clipboard then promptly used hand sanitizer as if the clipboards were dirty

Ok, let me start by saying its a shame the Dr employs such incompetent and judgmental staff members. Myself, son and both daughters had appointments. The reception, the Dr, the exam, all great; the problemsssss began when handed off to the frames & lens side. First, my paperwork with all of mine and my 13yr old daughters personal and medical information on it was left face up while another person was seated at the desk the paperwork was located. I personally had to go and interrupt to pick our information up. The employee says "it's fine, I'm right here. Uh, no, it's not

The service wasn't bad. I'm upset that after $400 after insurance, my optometrist gave me two different prescriptions. The correct one for my glasses and the same strength on each eye for my contacts. (One eye is stronger than the other. ) now I've got a year's worth of contacts I can't use because everything's blurry in one eye since they became accustomed to the two different strengths from my glasses. I hadn't worn glasses in so long, I used them daily now and didn't realize the gravity of what they did until recently so there's not much that can

I've been going here for about 3 consistent years now. I was originally referred after having some contact lens issues. The staff & Dr. Lucas are always super friendly & knowledgeable, quick and efficient. My concerns are always addressed and I'm always provided options when it comes to contacts or glasses. They have the best selection for eyewear in the city. They also offer discounts in some cases. I plan to continue going here annually for my glasses and contacts prescriptions.

My daughter wants to give 3 stars, my wife 2 stars. My daughter said the staff and doctor were nice to her. My wife said they were not. The major complaint was the quote over the phone. The quote was $96 for the exam and $80 for the boxes of contacts. My daughter gets the exam and my wife goes to pay and suddenly there was an additional charge of $80 for the CONTACT FITTING. My daughter has been wearing contacts from this place for 2 years.

Glasses looked great. They were patient with my 5 year old during the exam. It took a while to schedule the appointment and it took the full two weeks to get the glasses. They seemed impatient when he was putting the classes on for the first time.

Worst place to get glasses that I have ever been to. Do not waste your time or money here. From waiting too long for the doctor, to unhelpful office staff and manager, Frank, I would not recommend this place to my worst enemy. There are too many better options in town, to waste time at this office.

Dr. Sally Hamissou is awesome! She is very personable and thorough. Takes her time to really make sure you understand everything as well. This was probably the best optometrist I've ever been to!
