They have the cutest area for kids in the waiting room. Staff were so friendly and helpful when I…read moreneeded new glasses. I would definitely truly recommend this place.

Nice confidence-inspiring set-up and process at Berks Eye, but cataract treatment results were NOT…read morevisually impressive. The first issue is that Dr. Domenic Izzo thinks a lot of himself. One eye accelerated into cataracts due to a prior surgery - despite the opportunity to correct my far vision or use newer variable focal length lenses, Izzo just said flat out he's going to give me back my myopia to match my other eye (bad far vision, better up close). I've been in the medicine field for two decades, experienced different levels of vision in one eye for a bit, and worn contacts - I know what the problems can be, but he tired of answering after question number two. Based on familial history, I was fairly sure I would need the other eye done so they would match in the near future - Izzo was having none of that. Surgery (2017) went well on my "bad" eye and, after post-op laser treatment (2021) to clear the cloudly membrane that developed I had my clear but myopic vision back. More disappointing was the result of cataract surgery for the other, "good" eye. Given the ultimate result for my previous cataract surgery and recent laser clean-up, I decided to go back to Berks Eye and Dr. Izzo since they were familiar with my case and this would be the simple case to do (also in 2021). Possibly based on patient reviews in the intravening period, Dr. Izzo was at least pretending that he had a more receptive attitude about listening to the patient. Unfortunately, Izzo's surgery on the "good" eye resulted in NON-CORRECTABLE VISION problems both far AND NEAR. Questioned about this, that's when he brought out the old chestnut: "That's why you wear glasses!" I wish it were that simple. TWO DECADES PRIOR my parents both had cataract surgery and both ended up with nearly 20-20 far vision, so given that Dr. Izzo had forced the simple (myopic) lens replacement on me and that this was a straight-forward change to my good eye, I did expect a result at this level. While Dr. Izzo kept up a patter and went through the motions post-op of feigning that the results were good ("see how it's almost acceptable through the pinhole occluder"?), I now have some kind of UNCORRECTABLE warp in my near vision in that eye, which affects sports/driving/etc. Wearing the glasses PRESCRIBED BY DR. IZZO, I am basically "single-eyeing it" for all reading, near and far.

Care from physician provider and allied health professional running the tests was very good but…read moreoffice staff lacks professionalism and not customer focused. Billing staff not informed of accepted insurances. Accepted my insurance then after being seen several times was informed that they don't take my insurance - seriously! Difficulty obtaining medical records - no online form to download or submit, does not utilize email - still using fax to transmit information. Attitude when calling the office is that they are being bothered. Front desk staff stand around having personal conversations instead of positively greeting and efficiently assisting patients who enter. Other factors such as wait time, scheduling of appointments, cleanliness of office all good.

I have always gone to this place for my eye care and they have been great but recently the service…read morehas gotten terrible. I was told my glasses would be ready in two weeks and would receive a call when they are ready. About 4 days after the two weeks mark i thought it would be a good idea to call them asking if the are ready. I called them 4 times in the week asking if they were ready and nobody answered and when i left a voicemail nobody answered. I would think they are busy but when i came in to see for myself it was a ghost town. The lady at optical told me they were not ready and that i should come tomorrow and wait for her call. i don't know how the expect there customers to just wait for when they are available. when i asked here what time should I expect the call she gave me attitude. There have been delays after delays first it was tuesday then wednesday now thursday. If you want good customer service DO NOT COME HERE!!! the lady is the one in optical with white hair and glasses.

For years, I saw Dr Cairns and she was terrific. When she…read moreretired , I starting seeing Dr Loeb. Two years in a row, he wrote the wrong prescription for my glasses and I had to have them remade. The doctors assistants are very nice and have no issue with them. The office staff are rude at best. They could care less about your issues. I will not not be going back. I also had to wait an hour for a 10:30 appointment.

Terrible and fraudulent. Incredibly frustrating experience with the doctors at this office…read more Where do I start? The secretaries are extremely rude and they are not helpful at all when you ask questions they act visibly annoyed and the answers are not given to you either. Now regarding doctors services: they diagnosed my kid two years ago with a diagnosis and never told me about it. NEVER! Can you imagine how would you feel knowing two years later something may be wrong with your son. However, I wonder if this is just a fraudulent practice as the issue only came up when I asked why am I being charged for medical and vision? So copay and full payment on other visit? That's a lot of money. I took my kid to another practice and this Diagnosis is not present and the most pressing questions how you diagnose a child with a pretty serious eye issue and not tell the parents or provide any treatment for it?

Dr DiPillo and Jean (one of his assistants) are incredible. They are knowledgeable, professional…read moreand caring. If you need an Eye Doctor, Carim Eye and Rentina Center is a great place to go. EVERYONE there has been helpful and friendly. It's a comfortable place for care. I found my home for all my eye care.

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.
