Many eye diseases, like glaucoma and age-related macular degeneration, cause gradual and cumulative vision loss. The problem is that these conditions often don't produce any noticeable symptoms. By the time you become aware of the changes to your sight, your eyes have already sustained permanent damage and irreversible vision loss.
Children rely on their vision to help them learn and play. When a child can't see properly, their development can suffer. Regular eye exams are important to ensure that your child's eyes are healthy and their vision is working correctly, allowing them to reach their full potential. Children aren't always able to tell us that something is wrong, so parents and caregivers need to keep an eye out for potential vision problems.
Individuals with diabetes have unique vision and eye health needs and are at an increased risk of vision loss, so they should see their eye doctor at least once per year. Did you know that an eye exam can be a valuable tool for discovering and diagnosing diabetes in its earliest stages? That is just one more reason why everyone should see their eye doctor regularly.
Dry eyes are more than just uncomfortable. If left untreated dry eye disease can damage your corneas. If you suffer from dry eyes, The Village Eye Care is here to help! Not only will we work with you to manage your symptoms, but we will also address the underlying cause of your dry eyes and nip the problem in the bud.
As we spend more time on our computers, tablets, and smartphones, many of us are experiencing digital eye strain. According to a survey conducted by The Vision Council in 2015 59% of American adults report experiencing digital eye strain symptoms. If any of these symptoms sound familiar, you should ask your eye doctor about digital eye strain.

I had a very pleasant exam with Dr Summerhays. Everyone in the office from the front desk, the technicians that assist the doctors to the opticians were all very friendly and professional. I updated lenses in my own frame and was not disappointed with my new prescription. I also got new Maui Jim’s that have become my new favorite sunglasses. I highly recommend The Village Eye Care and Dr Summerhays for your eye exams.

I have been going here for over 8 years and they never fail to make it a good experience. The Optometrists and office staff are friends to everyone, the glasses selection is wonderful, the process is very tidy and quick, and they have always been sure to make everyone happy. Dr. Baird is who I always go to. I HIGHLY recommend!

Did not have a good experience here. I came here because it was conveniently in town, and they had great reviews. The optometrist lowered my prescription because I "wasn't that blind" so they filled my contacts and new $600 glasses with the new lower prescription. After complaining because I couldn't see at night, or far away they just switched me back to my original prescription I came in with (contacts only), which I got a year prior with my original optometrist. It's Still hard to see at night & far away, and my $600 glasses are in the lower prescription they changed me to. Needless to say,

1. My first visit was good, maybe even pleasurable. I showed them my current progressive lens glasses and told them they were fine, just scratched. My exam showed only a slight change in distance. No problem as I only need them for desk work.
2. Second visit not so good, as the new $1152.50/$400 pair thank god for insurance, made me feel sea sick. I tried them for a couple weeks to see if I might adjust. When I explained this, they put a few red dots on the lens and said they were sending them back to the lab.
3. Third visit was very disappointing. The glasses were not any better if at all. I

Experience was good in office, but beware of 20% restocking fee. We found a better deal online and 3 hrs. Later tried to cancel the 380.00 order and was told 20% restocking fee. 76.00 lost, but still made out purchasing from online equivalent eye wear. Do your research before making your final purchase!

It's irritating when any business comes highly recommended, but is nothing short of a severe let down. Village eye care gives you one redo and my wife ended up using that one redo. Rather than paying for the 3rd redo (paying for ineptitude seems rather idiotic) she is suffering by letting her eyes adjust. This doesn't seem to be happening and she bought her glasses 3 months ago. We thought that maybe my wife just had a tough prescription, but after the same thing happened to my daughter, I now am very suspect of their ability to provide the very service that is at the core of their existence

My son and I have been patients of Dr. Bairds for 12 years. We have always been completely happy with all the services we have received in this office. We both look forward to our appointments with Dr. Baird, we get to catch up with a friend and we know we are headed for some laughs.
I picked up my new glasses earlier this week. As I was getting ready to leave I asked if my glasses included a cleaning cloth. I was told I could not have a cleaning cloth because I didn't pay for additional coatings. Seriously?? My son and I spent at least $900.00 cash, above both of our insurance plans

Very pleased with the service rendered at The Village Eye Care Surprise Az. Alaina was my first point of contact (POC) she was very interested in finding a solution to my situation. Alaina genuinely was concerned and very knowledgeable going forward to resolve my situation. The eye doctor there is two notches above excellent, very knowledgeable and genuinely cares about her clients. This is a place where everyone can feel right at home! I would strongly recommend other eye care facilities take notes from The Village Eye Care...

Every employee in the office is very friendly and knowledgeable. Customer service was great. My prescription and issues were described in detail. I was not pushed to purchase glasses or contacts but was given pricing for both and did not feel pressured in any way. Will definitely be my go to office from now on.

We brought our 2 kids in, 5&7 for their first eye exam. Wonderful staff and a fantastic optometrist. Made everything go smoothly, definitely sticking with them. Kids had a great experience! Paid the extra for the optomap of the eyes instead of the dilation. Going to switch over to Village eye care for my wife and I also.

We just discovered this place and love everything about it. Our exams were very thorough and pleasant. I only wish we had found them years ago. Everyone there is very pleasant and professional and never any pressure. I very highly recommend them. I am older and have been through a lot of exams and this was the best.

I've gotten 4 pairs of glasses here and I couldn't be happier! The first three pairs I had no problem with, but this last pair I did have an issue. I had an exam and ordered a new pair of progressive lens. I've had progressives in my last two pairs, and I understand that when you first get them it can take a day or two before your brain learns where to look through them, until then it can seem like they aren't working right. This pair had that, but even after a week it still wasn't quite right, it didn't matter where i looked through the lens, i couldn't see as

Went in for the first time today and I am extremely satisfied! I've never had contacts or glasses but found the past year getting a bit fuzzy when driving at night. I was a little neevous. As soon as I walked in the receptionist was extremely friendly & welcoming! The nurse took me back and she was awesome. Very sweet! Then I was seen by the Dr who explained everything very thoroughly and made me feel really relaxed! Once the exam was over I had to pick out frames and go over what my insurance covered and the lady in the front was so helpful with all that info! Everyone was really amazing

I heard this place had the dopest glasses in town! It's no lie, they do. Wide selection and great, I say GREAT customer service. A very warm and welcoming place. Casey, an employee there who helped me with my specks was a pleasure to work with, so much so, I had ordered a second pair of dope specks! Don't hesitate and and wait like a fool, get your blinkers checked and soon you will be seeing the world in living color!

Again, this time with an emergency, I called on Dr. Baird.
This guy is awesome.
Took care of my problem quickly, and followed up with me to make sure everything was going okay.
Then, I decided to go get a follow up eye exam ... the staff was great, yet again, friendly and professional.
This business is locally owned.
They deserve a 10 out of a 5 rating!
