But if you are being treated for pre-diabetes or diabetes, make sure you tell Dr. Brown from the start because the eye exam is slightly different; it's your eyes so let her know. They have some new technology to look inside the eye and map it or look for abnormalities. It will add to your bill (Dr. Brown does not take insurance) but as I get one pair of eyes, I believe it's worth a few extra dollars.

#ThankYouThursday2021…read more Per a very small number of my previous reviews in the last decade, I only post a non-restaurant review for an amazing experience. THAT is what I received here at Gulf Coast Eye Center. We just moved, and second to my dermatologist for skin cancer screening and MOH surgeries, my eye care is of utmost importance. My family and I have had previous issues as well need corrective lenses and contacts. I need screenings for macular degeneration and central serious retinopathy since the 1990s. My wife through HealthGrades whittled down a long list and I scanned Yelp and Google and these folks bubbled to the top of the stack ranked list. Calling the office my wife and EASILY plowed through the insurance and setting up the first visit hassles with Kac who is awesome. Pam was terrific with the exams and laser light show and vision checks. Dr. Steven Bovio earned and proved why his "grades" are so high on HealthGrades and we went off into my history and details and even had discussions about nutrition and eye health and preventative tactics. FANTASTIC doctor and my previous guy in New York for the last 16 years had set a VERY high bar. Out in the eye center Irka dealt with my frugal (a.k.a. cheap Irish bastard) personality and we found some durable, light, and great fitting (for my full figured melon head) eyeglasses AND some protective sunglasses. A HOME RUN!!!!!!!!!!! I almost can't wait for the 1.5 to 2 weeks to get my new specs.....I am long overdue and see with my change in prescription why so many issues!! If your skipped down to the bottom here and did not read the above - pick up the phone and GO HERE!!!! (just don't make them so crowed I can't get in next time????? )

This location definitely has the best choice and superb service.

The physicians are knowledgeable, skilled, and genuinely caring. They take the time to answer questions and explain treatment options to ensure each patient has the best vision possible. The medical care has been outstanding. I recently needed surgery and it was performed with exceptional professionalism, and everything went smoothly. The post-surgical follow-up has been just as impressive, with careful monitoring, thorough examinations, and a staff that is always available to answer questions. Everyone in the practice--from the physicians to the technicians and office staff--is friendly, courteous, and efficient. It is clear that patient care is their highest priority. I highly recommend this practice to anyone seeking outstanding ophthalmologic care. Center for Sight's expertise, compassion, and commitment to excellent outcomes make them truly exceptional.
