Computer Vision Syndrome (CVS) is complex eye and vision problems related to near work which are experienced during, or related to computer use.

They have the worst customer service with the guy helping to choose the glasses. I been coming here for many years. I choose them over my eye doctor. I will find me a different eye doctor. Not professional at all. And I was given different color of transition on my glasses over all I am very disappointed.

This was my first time using them for eye glasses. They placed an existing prescription and put them in my glasses. After waiting only about a week, my glasses were ready for pick up and it was a good fit as expected.

Recently had my eyes examined here and ordered a new pair of eyeglasses. What a wonderful place with wonderful people! Everyone there was so polite, friendly, and helpful. Doctor Weinstein was the consummate professional. Renee and Ranceenia were two of the nicest people you could hope to deal with. I strongly recommend Weinstein Eye Associates with no hesitation.

If I could give the facility a lower rating I would. First their doctor provided the wrong prescription for my glasses. This resulted in my getting glasses that I could not see out of. When I complained they offered me an exchange of frames and a new set of lenses with the wrong prescription again. When I complained and insisted that I get a new examination they had me come in and see Dr. Weinstein. He acknowledged that I had received the wrong prescription and offered me two frames as a way to appease me. Now the office manager Lindsey has told me that I will only get one pair and that the right

It was a first time appointment with the practice for a routine check up. The location is Dunkirk, MD. The entire staff is awesome, from the technician who performed the basic tests, Dr. Melinda Weinstein who performed a thorough eye examination, the associate that fitted the frames and the office staff for check-in/out. The testing procedures and equipment are state-of-the-art. The showroom, waiting room and exam areas are spotless clean and my appointment was seen on time with Dr. Weinstein, something I really value. All of my questions were answered and I was not rushed or pushed thru the process

Ridiculous policies that show lack of awareness or concern for their patients. We had so many problems over the years and only kept going because our insurance wouldn't cover us going elsewhere. Avoid if you can.

Not a fan. I wear progressive bifocals and had my eye exam done elsewhere. I came here because they are in network with my VSP plan. Even with insurance I was looking to spend $400+ for one pair of eyeglasses. I think they're over priced and really try to get you to pay for the max that your plan allows (I don't need $65 Crizal coating if the coating covered by my insurance works just as well). With the same insurance, I paid $75 at Costco (out of network!) and they replaced one lens for free after a year because I scratched the lens. I was already working with one employee while another

From the time with the doctor to spending time with the ladies up front I had a great experience. I showed up 30 mins early so that I could fill out paperwork because it was my first time. I was called in by the doctor 10/15 mins after my apt time. I walked in and she was so welcoming very nice and answered my 100 questions. While I waited for my eyes to settle after being dialated I went to the front to pick out glasses. Michelle helped me choose the best fit for me. Jen the receptionist even came over to give advice. Everyone was so nice and I would recommend this place to anyone. The only problem

While sitting in the waiting room, I took look at Yelp for reviews of this practice. Seeing the negative reviews, I thought, "Oh, oh, I should have read the reviews before making the appointment." But, not seeing anything negative about the doctors, I went through with the appointment. I am so glad I did.

Yes, the wait for the optometrist to see me was long, about 40 minutes. But in my experience, that's not unusual in medical practices and I allow plenty of time for appointments. If quick in/out eye exams & glass fittings are important, this practice might not be for you.

This place has very rude customer service. I get there 25 min prior to close and she gonna tell me I got 5 minutes to get the contact lens in, mind you I waited 20-25 minutes for someone to help me. I politely told her you can give me back my money. No one tells me I have 5 minutes to do nothing when I'm paying them.
Wouldn't recommend to a soul, especially since they have 19th century hours of operation.
Probably should have read these reviews first but I've been going there for a while. I will NOT be returning.

There are a lot of issues here. Every time I go here, I don't get seen until 20 min after my appointment time. The receptionists are not friendly. I never got a call back from the office either time they were supposed to call me back. I would not recommend this business to anyone and will not be going back again. They didn't have my contacts in stock and in order to write you a prescription for contacts they have to see them on you, so I had to make two appointments just to get a prescription. My contacts were $10 a box more here than on 1-800 contacts.

I think they're open late

I guess I should have come to yelp before making an appointment with this office!! Normally if I at least like the doctor then I'll stick with a business but the ladies in this office have seriously been a thorn in my side and now I have to jump through hoops! The only reason this place gets two stars and not negative (I wish I could sometimes) is because the Dr was really nice and personable. Too bad she doesn't have better people working in the office.

I initially went in for my annual exam and to get fitted for contacts.. I've never had contacts before so I had to go through

I like the doctors at this location, but I agree with everyone else about the ladies in the office...they are ALL HORRIBLE AND NASTY attitudes. A few weeks I walked in and the lady was on the phone talking to her child about returning to class she looked at me and continued to talk on the phone.....I used to work in customer service and I always put my customers first, you can tell the call was not of an urgent manner. I had to wait for the other lady to come from across the store to assist me. And yes, they are so OVERPRICED. My husband and I are already looking for new eye doctors, I cannot

I've been a client of this practice for 3 years. I've always been very happy with Dr. Hetal Rena, but never thrilled with the customer service. On my first visit, I noticed that they severly upcharge the price of frames lenses (checking every "highest" option possible so that you pay the most out of pocket). Even with my insurance, I ended up spending $300 (It was my first pair of glasses, and my last time ordering from them as I was unaware of how badly they were ripping me off).

Since then, I've just gone for annual eye exams, without purchasing new perscription

I spent $434 on a pair of specialized frames, the ones that turn to sunglasses, while outside. I got the frames two weeks later, guess what? They put the wrong lenses in. Then they try to correct the problem. Three weeks later, I get the lens back, but not cut properly as to fit in my frames. I ask for a discount or something for the inconvenience of waiting almost a month and paying almost $500. I am offered 50% off a pair of sunglasses or a new pair of glasses. I do not need sunglasses, and I just bought a new pair of glasses. Talk about cheap!

Their website screens the negative reviews as well

If I could give zero stars I would. I called to see if they could help me with strong prescription sunglasses. The response was to come see us and we'll see if we can fit you. I gave the optician my prescription and the answer was the same. I'm not driving 25 miles just in case they can help.
