I gave this place two stars because the eye doctor that I saw was really nice, and the receptionist…read moreman was also nice. That is until I told him that my glasses prescription was wrong. He then started arguing with me that I wouldn't be able to tell, as though I haven't been wearing these glasses for 25 years. I came to Inver Grove because Target gave me the wrong prescription the year before. I could see things, but they were much to strong. When I kept arguing with the man at Inver Grove Family Eye Clinic that I was sure these were not the correct lenses (one is stronger and one is weaker) he went out of the room for about 10 minutes, then asked me to come into the exam room with him (he is NOT an optometrist) he had me look at the letters on the wall and asked me to read them. I read them because I can see them because one of my lenses is too strong, and he said, "See, as long as you can see 20-20 that means that you have the right prescription." Anyone who wears glasses knows this is not true. And the whole reason I came there was because my previous prescription was TOO STRONG! In fact my doctor TOLD ME that is was much too strong! I proceeded to try to convince him for awhile longer but he brushed me off and would not reschedule an appointment. I could have kept bothering them, but it seemed futile for me. So they get one star because I did not keep trying, and one star because they were nice in the beginning. Hope this helps...don't let that guy bully you like I did!

Overall, they provided me with particularly bad service--especially the man who worked at the front…read moredesk. The eye doctor gave me two eye exams, because after the first exam, I was still experiencing vision problems, and as a result, returned about a month later for a second exam. This time, he told me I needed bifocals-- according to him, that would fix all my problems... which he concluded after an exam that lasted about 60 to 90 seconds, and involved only one test. He held two plastic lenses over my eyes, and asked, "is that better?" I hesitated for a moment, but eventually responded yes. However, the test he did involved me looking through the lenses at a line of letters on a piece of paper that was sitting on my lap, which was a questionable test at best, because I told him that I was having trouble seeing things clearly, when they're close to my eyes (like a foot away or less)-- for example: the text and numbers on my cell phone; by contrast, the sheet with the line of letters, was about 2 feet away from my eyes... so it didn't really strike me as a good test to diagnose my problem. After this seemingly rushed test of his, he said, "you need bifocals." I felt not totally convinced, but ultimately, I thought, "well-- he's the doctor I guess... he probably knows what's best." When the bifocals were ready for pick up and I tried them on for the first time, I became frustrated and disappointed because they made no difference whatsoever. I still had serious trouble seeing things clearly up close. On top of that, my insurance wouldn't cover them, which I was never warned about in advance by the provider. They ended up costing me $452.88. And worst of all, after I submitted an appeal to the insurance company, Ucare, to reconsider their denial, the man at the front desk, gave me only about half of the information needed, and refused to do the necessary work - which by the way, wasn't much - to figure out the remaining information Ucare needed. When I sent them what he did give me, they responded by saying it wasn't adequate to reconsider my situation. So I returned to him, and when I told him the original form he gave was rejected, he got uppity with me, and said that the info he gave them the first time is all they should need to process the appeal. He refused to find out more and give me all of the requested information. He honestly said, "I'm not doing that! That's stupid." There was no one in the store waiting in line to see him, he wasn't doing anything when I came in, and I read online, that eye care professionals are legally obligated to give the info Ucare asks for, if requested by a patient or customer. My overall rating of Inver Grove Heights Family Eye Clinic? One star out of five. The only reason they get even one star, is that the primary optometrist, during my first eye exam, discovered a blister in the bottom right-hand corner of my eye, which required laser surgery from a retina specialist to fix. So for that, I give genuine thanks. But regarding everything else? Just awful.

Bailey was highly…read moreknowledgeable and asked great questions to glean details to preemptively present information useful to my particular situation. The parking lot is small, with six spots shared between the street-facing optometry office and an interactive media studio behind it. I was greeted by both Bailey and the sunny Teri upon walking in. Soon as I was done with the paperwork, Bailey had a machine quickly measure my eyes for basic numbers to hand off to the optometrist (no puff of air involved, in case that bothers anyone), and I was ushered to the office to meet Dr. Matthew Anderson. Matt is a rather quiet individual - going expect overt humor or any chit-chat. That said, he was professional and thorough, whether in checking my eyesight, fitting me for contact lenses, or rechecking the fitting after I'd put on a trial pair. Eyes All Over typically gives over a week's worth of daily contact lenses for a trial run, and Matthew makes a point of guiding clients towards economical lens choices that offer enough support for their eyes without wallet overkill. Optometrists often have a refitting policy in event a prescription doesn't feel quite right, and Matthew's refitting policy extends 60 days from the examination. Overall, a good experience. I'll be back in a week to pick up the trial contact lens sets on order for me. Meanwhile, I have the remaining pairs the office had on hand to try out.
