    I had an eye infection, and they took me in that day. My right eye was very blurry. Two doctors…read morelooked at it and both confirmed what I had was scaring my pupil. They put me on meds, and they said if this doesn't work it will require surgery. It took over a month and my eye healed thankfully and no surgery was needed. They made an excellent diagnosis. The office staff were just good and very friendly. Thank you for an awesome experience.

    As a long-time patient of Eye Consultants of Pennsylvania in Wyomissing, I recently found myself…read morehaving to quickly seek care elsewhere because of what I believe is a significant change in their patient triage process--one that could have serious consequences for someone experiencing an urgent eye condition. Over the years, I had received excellent care from this practice. Several years ago, I experienced flashes of light in my left eye. When I called, I was told it was an urgent situation and was instructed to come in first thing the following morning--even though it was a Sunday and the office was otherwise closed. I was promptly diagnosed with a retinal tear and successfully treated with laser surgery. I also had cataract surgery at Eye Consultants, which was another positive experience. At my most recent appointment in March 2026, I again mentioned flashes of light in my left eye. The doctor determined there was no immediate cause for concern but emphasized that if the flashes increased or changed in any way, I should consider it a serious matter and come in immediately to be evaluated. When I noticed that exact change, I called the office expecting to follow those instructions. Instead, the scheduler informed me that my request would first have to be reviewed by a nurse, who would determine whether I could be seen, and that someone would call me back. Unfortunately, my interactions with several phone representatives throughout this process were also lacking in the empathy and courtesy I had come to expect from a medical practice. Because I placed my first call late in the afternoon, I became increasingly concerned that I would not receive a timely response. I called back, explained the doctor's previous instructions, and stressed that my symptoms had changed. I was then told that I would need to see a different physician in the practice and that the earliest available appointment was 3:00 p.m. the following day. Apparently, what had once been treated as an urgent condition was no longer considered one. Hoping there had been some misunderstanding, I called one final time to see whether an earlier appointment was possible. I was told that if I believed my vision was in jeopardy, I should go to an Urgent Care center or the Emergency Room, have them evaluate me, and then have them refer me back to Eye Consultants for an earlier appointment. So if an earlier appointment was available, I don't understand why a patient should have to jump through hoops to get it. At that point, I canceled the 3:00 p.m. appointment and contacted another ophthalmology practice in Lancaster. They immediately agreed that my symptoms warranted prompt evaluation and scheduled me as an emergency patient for 8:00 a.m. the following morning. In the end, I'm grateful this happened because it led me to an outstanding practice with a compassionate physician and one of the most professional, caring staffs I have encountered in years. Having spent ten years working in the administrative side of a large hospital system, I understand that healthcare practices face staffing challenges and scheduling constraints. Even so, I was genuinely surprised by what felt like a dismissive approach to symptoms that can indicate a vision-threatening emergency. This is the first review I have ever written because I believe prospective patients should know about my experience. My hope is that no one experiencing symptoms such as new or worsening flashes of light, floaters, or other potentially serious vision changes delays seeking care because they are unable to obtain a prompt appointment.

When I initially got the glasses there was a small problem (lenses made incorrectly) but the store corrected the issue. (Thank you.) Their prices are a little on the high side, but they may be in line with other eye care places. (I don't know.) Unfortunately 6 months after receiving my glasses, the bridge broke. When I went back to see what could be done I was told if I didn't buy an extended warranty, all I could do is buy new frames. There was no options other than that presented to me. Seems the customer service stopped when I walked out the door after initially buying my glasses. I did not abuse my glasses, just seems as though they had a manufacturing defect from the start, but now I am out $400. I understand that it isn't specifically Lindsey Eye Care's fault, but it is not mine either. If 6 months is the best you can get out of a pair of glasses from them, probably should look to another facility that sells better quality items.

    This was my first visit to Linsey after no longer being satisfied at my previous place. Dr. Hachem…read morewas super nice and not only addressed my vision but also discussed other concerns moving forward. My script was updated, and Jessica assisted me in selecting my new frames. She gave me honest opinions and was helpful with locating certain styles until I made the final decisions. I have no concerns about my eyecare going forward with this practice.

    Probably capable for less serious eye issues; Dr. Carim too impatient with less routine procedures…read more Plus Side: He exceeded others in Reading area in seeing the problem, knows the graduated levels of treatment, and is familiar with them. Developed a blind spot in one eye - neither Eyeland optometrist nor ophthalmologist at Campanella & Pearah could ID the cause. Dr. Carim saw a hole in the retina and immediately injected a bubble to pin it back before laser affixation. Bubble was augmented once. Negatives: Impatience and questionable judgment in my estimation. After the proscribed days of waiting (and head positioning to optimize the bubble's effect), saw him again. Dr. Carim stated that the retina was not all the way back but decided to proceed with the laser procedure (maybe he expected it would get no better, but he didn't go for more days despite feeling that could help). What started as a quick laser attachment procedure turned into a long laser light show and torture session as he grew increasingly frustrated with the retina's remaining detached area. Another bubble. Days later, the blind spot was expanding into the center of my vision. The next step was the more "intense" step of cryogenic attachment. Apart from the glorious feeling of poking multiple instruments into my eyeball and freezing it, my situation ultimately became a full retinal detachment. In this timeframe Dr. Carim noted that my retina had at least three holes that allowed fluid to get behind it. This could have been the result of multiple laser burn-throughs from my military service, or maybe his premature laser attachment action. Blind in one eye now, I went to Dr. David Fisher in Philadelphia (3 locations for him), who laid out my options. A vitrectomy (removal of all fluid, pin the retina back) was performed. Vision in that eye is hazy, non-correctable to anywhere near what it was, and depth perception is off from other eye - the resultant of full retinal detachment.

    Historically, my experiences with Visionworks (Boston MA, Philadelphia PA and Wyomissing PA…read morelocations) have been very good. The staff is normally pleasant, and the optometrists are knowledgeable about their craft. Today, it was a totally different experience. The young lady working at the front desk appeared nice at first, but became increasingly impatient when I asked her to check my medical records to compare the Rx from 2021 and 2024. My recent glasses have the leading increased headaches and I wanted to know what was a significant difference between the Rx from 2021 and 2024. If so, I could discuss this information with the optometrist. Unfortunately, the young lady told me that the 2021 info was no longer available as they have changed systems and some charts no longer have access to the prior medical records!!! I explained to her that it is federal law that they keep this medical information, or they risk up to $10,000 per chart. After further discussion, she was able to find the Rx info documented on an old sales receipt but declined to give me this information for comparison. I requested to speak with the optometrist, to which she initially agreed and then told me he was unable. Another employee chimed in that "we're booked for the day but you can make an appointment for another day." She offered me the ability to request my medical records for which I accepted and waited for the young lady to complete my medical records request. Instead, she continued to help other customers or type into the computer. Eventually, the optometrist then came out to speak with me, was very polite, and informed the young lady to provide me with this information. The entire experience felt like unnecessary "power trip" from the young lady. Unfortunately, my family and I will no longer be using the Wyomissing PA Visionworks location and possibly switching entirely to a different establishment.
