This place is run absolutely horrible. I had accompanied my grandma for her 8am appointment. We checked in and sat down. We waited an hour before I went up to the desk to verify that my grandma had checked in properly. The girls up front had a difficult time finding her account with all the information provided, a couple of minutes later, then FINALLY found the account. They then told me that they were short staffed and that there was a sign that said they were short staffed so wait times would be longer. I told the girl that I understand they are short staffed and I wasn't complaining, I

I went to Eye Centers of Florida to have implantable contact lenses (IPL) several years ago and haven't had any issues since. I was very extremely nearsighted, and I couldn't get Lasik or PRK because my corneas were too thin, and I have an astigmatism. I did my research and found that these fine folks would do IPL. IPL is basically the same procedure they do for cataracts, but they use prescription lenses to correct near or farsightedness. It was the best thing I'd ever done. It cost me $5000 at the time and it was the best money spent. No more glasses or contacts. Once the drugs

I went to Eye Centers with VA referral. I was told I needed catarac surgery and could get regular lenses paid for thru my insurance and VA or I could get lenses that worked at distance and close up. When dr brown did surgery in both eyes the more expensive lens was only put a n one eye and the generic lens in the other with the explanation that the lens pocket was too small . This was done without my authorization. My sight was foggy and there were palpaitations and glare. I was told this would clear up. After many legnthy and cancelled appointments always resulting in long office waits I was scheduled

I provided my written prescription that staff scanned when I first visited Eye Center of FL on Evans in Ft Myers. It took 3 weeks to get the glasses, the longest I have waited in 50 years of glasses wearing. When I picked the glasses up the staff just handed them to me and said ok, you are all set. Typically glasses need a little adjusting, so I took them from the case and as soon as I put them in I knew there was a problem because I was seeing double. Staff kept insisting that I just needed to get used to them.
I then called the eye dr who provided the prescription who ran me through some tests

I have the highest praise for ECOf in Ft. Myers. Dr. Mauer did my cataract surgery on both eyes and I am beyond thrilled with the results! He explained the procedure clearly to me and made me feel comfortable. All the staff members were professional and helpful. I will recommend ECOF to my family and friends.

Save your time and go somewhere else. We are new to the area and my kids needed eye exams. The insurance suggested this place. We made appointments. Showed up 15 min early to fill out paperwork and waited an HOUR beyond our appointment time before they actually got us in. This place is dirty. The equipment is old. They are understaffed. THEN they refused to do my son's contact fitting because they were understaffed and didn't have time. Hello, that's what we made the appointment for!!! We will be finding a different place to get our exams and eyewear.

This is the worst eye care I've ever had. I came here from a recommendation and I waited over 2 hrs to see a doctor. Then I hurt my eye and came in and waited 2 hrs, ihad to come back for a follow up. I've been waiting over an hr. How busy can it be when your appointment is at 9:30 AM. The staff and doctors are nice but the lack of professionalism and patient courtesy is horrific. Run from this place NEVER come here unless you have time to waste. If I could leave no stars I would. AWFUL!!!!

I've been trying to get a hold of the one lady that orders contacts because theirs only one person who can order contacts. She doesn't answer the phone and when you leave a voicemail she doesn't return your calls. Instead they sent me a postcard it's time for a new eye exam. No thank you! Worst customer service ever!!

Great experience! You walk in and it's giant. I was tested by one of the techs then the doctor came in. They both were very friendly. I also purchased my glasses here. I have VSP and it covered my glasses it just was a $25 copay. Some people I could hear complaining about the price but I would disagree. The only reason I didn't give 5 stars is because the person helping get the glasses waited a good 20-25 minutes

Money money money! First thing, the receptionist says I'm not on the schedule. I show her the THREE text messages confirming my appointment and she says they had my DOB wrong in the system. Then, after an hour, got in the the back for the exam and first thing I'm told it's $150 for a contact fitting fee! I've been wearing contacts for 20 years and have never paid a fitting fee! I didn't even get a chance to meet the doctor before they start asking for money. Don't waist your time with this place it's like a cattle drive. Got a refund for my copay and I'm

First, let me say that I have been a patient at Eye Centers of Florida for 31 years. Doctors told me that I needed cataract surgery. I asked what the percentage of people get a 20/20 result and Dr. Spencer said about 97%. He said the lens to see both up close and distance was an addition price of $5000. I went to Ft Myers to do my pretesting/pay I was told the extra lens was $5500, so I had to pay the $5500 instead of the $5000 quoted to me. My first eye was operated on in October 2016. I was in the waiting room for an hour when they called my name. I had four nurses surround me immediately. I

After visiting the Clewiston office I will NEVER go the Eye Centers again. The office staff was rude and Brittany the lady that fits your glasses sat a hollered to the reception staff about a customer they were upset with the entire time. I should have said something but I did not want the backlash I just wanted to see. After calling and checking on my glasses they were very rude on the phone and hung up on me. I called my insurance to complain because I had already paid 471.00 for my glasses but did not want to give them my business I was told by the insurance I was overcharged on my lenses

Do not waste your time or money. If I could give a negative number it would be-5. Two separate years I have gone to this location. Both times I've had to wait hours to see the doctor and that's when I have an appointment. Evidently my time is worth nothing. When it comes to the Eye Center to make your glasses they never get the prescription right. I went back twice the first year to get it corrected. Twice again the second year to try to get it corrected. I now have a two pair of glasses that are worthless and I cannot use. Find another place to go to have your eyes checked and have your

My son was sent there for blurry vision, dr brown did an exam and told him nothing was wrong with his eyes!! A total of 3 tests were done with little or no communication, and after two hours was told he could leave and a dr would call him within two day!! Totally unacceptable, coming from Boston I found this office to be slow , very unfriendly staff, and why would his eye dr tell him it was vert important to get in there in such a hurry if nothing was wrong with his eyes? Will not return there nor recommend to anyone , waste of time and money!!!
Update !!!!!!!!!!!! A week later after three

I went there to get new glasses. I was a first time customer. I told the lady doing my eyeglass order "I ONLY WANT WHAT IS COVER BY DAVIS VISION". I paid my co-pay and left. A couple days later I get a bill for $20. I called them right away. I was told the charge was for scratch resistant I told them I don't want it. I wrote on my bill I don't want it. I continue to get billed. That was my first and last visit to them. You see the Optometrist for 15 minutes. The rest of the Exam is done by other employees. I got the impression one didn't quite know what she was doing
