It was due to the excellent reviews here that I went to Skokie Optical, not realizing that when…read moreRosen took it over it lost all the aspects that made it such a fantastic optical place. They only take appointments here on Mondays, and the lab is no longer being used. We booked our appointments 2 weeks out, only to have someone call us a week before the appointment in August to reschedule to a week later. When we got there, we were warmly welcomed and the optometrist did a decent job. We had decent optical insurance. I used to work in the optical industry many years ago, and I found Rosen's model remarkably similar in its predatory nature. Rather than point us to the frames and lenses that would receive the most coverage through our insurance, the optician pointed us to the most expensive lenses our personal money could buy. We bought 1 pair of single vision lenses and 1 pair of progressives through the insurance, plus 1 pair of single vision lenses out of pocket. After the insurance was applied, the out of pocket for the insurance-paid glasses and those I purchased out of pocket were nearly identical--upwards of $300 each. Tack on another $600 out of pocket for the progressives after insurance was applied and the glasses were $1200+. When I asked the optician to convert the lenses over to what was covered, she argued that the total amount we'd save was a mere $40, which was disingenuous at best because that was the difference in out of pocket cost, per lens, but my insurance covered a higher proportion of the insured lenses than the specialty ones. When I asked what was remarkably better about the upgraded lenses, the optician said "you can see better out of them" with absolutely no further explanation about how, qualitatively, they improved vision. The bonus was when the single vision glasses took over 3 weeks to arrive. When I called to ask about them, they said this was standard timing for all glasses throughout the industry, which I know is false because even 20 years ago with an external lab glasses were delivered within a week unless they were really specialized, like glass trifocals. The progressives took 6 weeks apparently because the first make didn't pass inspection. We will not be back to Rosen and resume our search for an ethical optical place for next year. What a racket.

I had a terrible experience with Dr. Dalporto. Not only was she unprofessional, but she provided…read moreme with the wrong contact lens prescription for 2 years. I had difficulty seeing anything up close with the contacts I wore that were based on her prescription. Reading books, checking my watch, or reading on my phone was impossible due to the blurriness. It bothered me for 2 years, and I was very frustrated with the issue. I asked her to adjust the prescription several times. She made slight adjustments, which were not helpful. She finally told me she could do no more, or I would have trouble seeing things far away. She also told me that it was normal to have blurry vision while wearing contacts when looking at things close up because contacts are different than glasses. This was incorrect information! I wasn't sure what the problem was, but I figured it was my eyes. Eventually, due to the discomfort, I gave up wearing contacts unless it was absolutely necessary. The issue was finally resolved when I took a trip to Taiwan and consulted an optometrist there who told me that the prescription Dr. Dalporto gave me was entirely wrong and too strong. They said that she should not have simply given me a prescription based on whatever the vision test machine determined. Every prescription needs to be adjusted based on each individual's lifestyle and habits so that anything--both close up and at a distance--can be seen clearly and comfortably. I received a new prescription, and when I tried the new contacts, I immediately noticed a huge difference. They were so comfortable, and I had no trouble seeing or reading things on a computer, on my phone, or close up. The problem I had with blurriness that had been bothering me for years was finally resolved! Now I can wear contacts again--every day, all day. I went back to Dr. Dalporto and asked her to adjust the prescription on file based on the new prescription. She simply copied the numbers directly from the Taiwanese prescription and checked my vision. It was 20/20, of course. Had she actively tried her best to help me achieve the most comfortable and accurate prescription years ago, I would not have suffered so much with blurry vision when trying to see things close up! When I complained, the office manager was cold and impatient and didn't apologize for all the trouble I had been through. Instead, she asked me, "Is there anything else?" At this point, I was so fed up with this mess and so shocked at the customer service I received that I decided to change optometrists completely for my own vision care. One of the fundamental jobs of an optometrist is to give correct, comfortable contact lens prescriptions to patients. If they fail to provide an accurate prescription, it raises serious doubts about their professional competence. This experience proved to me that Dr. Dalporto doesn't care about her patients' vision, nor does she try her best to solve the vision issues they have. Instead, she is very passive, only does what she is asked to do (but poorly), and performs vision tests that a robot could do. In a word, she is incompetent. Don't go to Dr. Dalporto. She is totally unprofessional and won't give you a correct prescription!
