I love this place except for their mandate to either get dilation or the optomap of your eye during your visit. **read further down this review**
The receptionist uses terminology "its to protect the doctors license" but upon further researched this is a blatant lie. I think Its a manipulation tactic to get you to pay for services insurance won't cover outside of what a $10-$20 eye exam costs. **dilation is covered per the receptionist**
"Prescription Only?

The receptionist was extremely rude even hanging up on me while I was still talking. Upon leaving my feedback on another site they then proceeded to violate HIPAA and reveal my information and tried to belittle instead of apologize or correct. AVOID!!
FYI all in all they messed up my glasses because they DIDN’T even noticed astigmatism...went to another place and wow I can see!!

I would not recommend this office. My daughter wants colored contacts, and we went to the eye doctor just a few months ago. They will not write a prescription for them without a $65 office visit!!! We can order contacts with the prescription we have for the next year, but they won't allow colored ones without an appointment. They would need to remeasure her eyes. Whatever... everything is about the money!!
I also had a hard time adjusting to multifocal lenses, and the doctor told me it would take some time to get it adjusted correctly. After trying some combination of contacts, someone called

My daughter missed 1 appointment, 1. Her grandma was going to take her, but ended up not making it. I did not recieve her text in time to call and cancel. When calling to let them know, the first lady who answered transfered me in the middle of me trying to explain what had happened and the lady who I was transfered to was not any kinder?! She said, " Its a $35.00 fee for no call no show, so you still want to reschedule?".
I don't have an issue paying the fee, it was our fault, obviously. But, where is the good customer service anymore! Good grief. We will be finding a new optometrist

I love Columbus Optical. They are all so nice. I immediately felt like family when I walked in. They introduced me to some super cool techniques that help me with lights at night when I am driving by putting a special coloring on my lens so I don’t get the blinding feeling I have always had before when I drove at night. Highly recommend them for all your eye care needs.

I am from Columbus, Ohio and I was stopping in Columbus, IN to see family on my way to Evansville, IN, when I woke up and realized I forget my contacts at home. I called Columbus Optical and once Madison received my prescription, she called me to let me know they had some contact lenses that would work for me and got me all taken care of very quickly. Thank you so much!

Easy to book an appointment, office is in a great location, convenient hours, friendly and competent staff. Dr. Hernacki is amazing; she is the only eye doctor I can ever remember actually being so kind, caring, and go to such great lengths to make me comfortable and relaxed. A good selection of frames available once you get to that step. My glasses were ready within a couple of days. Definitely will go back for future vision care services.
