There are 29 posted YELP reviews for this Optical establishment. 25 of them are five star reviews…read morefor Tom Collins (previous owner) and his staff who ran this business for many years. They were loved by the community and their customer care was impeccable. Tommy could deal with anyone... even a few crabby dissatisfied customers but he was ALWAYS able to work with EVERYONE and he always took the high road. These reviews were well earned by HIM. The establishment was bought out by Christina and Enrico Palmerino several years ago now. They also own several other local Optical shops.. one is in Brooklyn New York. Since they took over in Newburyport the new business has received only 4 yelp reviews... 2 (5) star reviews and 2 (1) star reviews. Where I am from this is a significant red flag showing that this business needs improvement. It is also sad that Chrisina and Enrico did not wipe out Tommy's reviews because he and Dianne and several other employees worked very hard for those reviews! They should not be inherited they should be earned! My experience with the new owners has been rocky and unpleasant. The acting manager Clark Goodwin is a big part of the problem here at this business. Clark is moody, dismissive and he talks down to good customers. I returned 2 pairs of high end glasses three years ago and he was livid with me and he behaved unprofessionally towards me. Clark Goodwin sadly is the antithesis of what Tommy Collins was! I want to warn ALL of my disabled veteran friends , my healthcare friends ( retired RN here) and all the wonderful seniors in the area to take your business somewhere else. This company has no heart... they are a family of millionaires who could care less about customers and providing quality services to the residents of Newburyport. I really miss Tom Collins and his staff ... I just wish that Tom had screened the new owners more carefully. Buyer beware... this establishment is a greedy wolf in sheep's clothing. Do NOT trust Clark Goodwin with your money or your time. He should get out of the eye wear profession and maybe consider a new career in the Dept of Corrections. The prisons need employees with lousy dispositions like Clark. Good Riddance Market Unfair Optical! I cannot wait until the day that I drive by that shop and a new shop is there -one that actually cares about eye care and about HELPING customers in downtown Newburyport !

I can't remember the last time I had such a positive healthcare experience. I went to the Cambridge…read morelocation. Jackie at the front desk was so warm, welcoming, and engaged. She helped me navigate questions about insurance and clearly had my best interest at heart. Veenu Gill O.D. provided my care with the same warmth and efficiency. She answered my questions, explained what she was doing, and was incredibly thoughtful with her recommendations. Because of these two women (and Jessica, who was taking notes), my visit was easy, comfortable, and somehow enjoyable. Do yourself a favor and go to this location if you need care (or just a pair of glasses!). You'll be glad you did it from the moment you schedule the visit (great scheduling system) to when you walk out the door.

What an outstanding experience I had when I went to The Eye Place for the first time. My glasses…read morethat I've had for over 10 years snapped in half recently, right on the bridge. I need them desperately to see. Ordering glasses at most places would take days to come in. Teaches me a lesson not to have a back up pair around. So on a whim I found The Eye Place. First off, on Shelles The Eye Place website, I really liked what she had to say about herself, her background, and how she runs her business. As a person that has spent many years in sales, I believe in transparency and not being pushy with the customer. Shellee has those same values. Transparently speaking I just went in there to see if she had any ideas on how I could maybe fix them. She's quite lovely in person. She knows what she's talking about and treats you like your family. I felt like I had known her for years, the way that we talked. When I finally pulled out my glasses to show her what had happened, she didn't even miss a beat. She found a similar frame and popped out the lenses on my broken pair of glasses and put them in the new frames. The new frames are at a great price point. She made little adjustments on the glasses to ensure they fit my face properly. The transaction was smooth and seamless. I love my new glasses. Shellee has a wonderful selection of glasses to fit any face and designs to fit anyone's unique style. You can tell by the way Shellee interacts with you that she loves what she does and she ensures that her customers leave with a smile on their face and the perfect eyeglass frames. I would highly recommend her to anyone looking for a wonderful Optician that takes pride in their work and delivers high quality care.

When I tell her I'm there to pick up contacts she'll tell me she can't help me, step away and stand in the kiosk not assisting other customers, while Kyle runs around frantically taking care of ALL of the customers. Please promote Kyle or at least give him a raise! That said... I had the unfortunate experience of speaking with Deanne tonight. I wanted to order a 6 month supply of my contacts. My prescription - which hasn't changed over the past couple of years - is due to expire this month. As all contact lens wearers know, your prescription is good for one year, however my insurance (BCBS) just this year changed their benefit to only allow eye exams once every year and a half. I am a teacher and sadly cannot afford to cover the costs of an eye exam and contact fitting fee out of my own pocket. Since my eyes have been stable, my optometrist's office advised me to order contacts in advance to carry me through the additional 6 months. At first Deanne refused to place my order. Once I explained my situation to Deanne she begrudgingly asked for my card number. I typically order a 3 month supply so i asked her to confirm it woukd be a 6 month. She very condescendingly told me how many contacts would be in each box and said "so yes it will be 6 months." Then, as I began to give her my card number, she rudely interrupted me telling me it wasn't a Visa (it is). Exhausted, I asked if I could just come in with cash. I asked for her name and she proudly told me it was Deanne, and that she was the manager. I'll now be trying to find another discount provider for my contacts. Perhaps BJs has better customer service.
