I was excited to find an eye doctor close to me, so I booked at the Coupeville location despite the…read morenegative reviews. Unfortunately I'm still be looking for that local eye doctor. I'm hoping my review can provide additional clarity and context on their practices, so that they can improve, because it's clear a lot of people are being misled and extremely inconvenienced by this place. I agree with what people say about the staff. It is definitely not a warm, welcoming place. That's not a big problem for me as I'm not the chattiest person myself, but it's definitely not the "island" feel you'd expect as a local. I want to make it clear that I don't blame the staff. They are clearly working in a difficult environment with upset customers, so I hope that whoever is in charge can help improve this. Now, getting to technician Ashley -- that's where I decided the place is not worth any investment of time, and left after ~7 minutes. We go back to the exam room, and things start normal. I'm a new patient but I came well-prepped with my prescriptions, etc. I start to talk about my contact lens needs and things get unhinged. This must be a sore subject with Ashley. She turns to me, glares, and says we will not be doing contact lens exams today, that's an entirely different appointment. This was surprising to me, because I've been visiting eye doctors for over 30 years now, and they all do a glasses/eye exam at the same time, and there was never any disclaimer up front that they wouldn't. And why does Ashley seem so hostile about the subject? But that's fine, I told her I was surprised because usually eye doctors do the exams at the same time and she says "you're not even wearing contacts and we have no way of knowing what your prescription is". Meanwhile I was carrying my prescription in my hand, which I had just showed her. Keep in mind I don't have any contacts to wear because I ran out of them. I told her this, but I think this is where Ashley trip-wired because I didn't fit into her list of excuses. After listening to a bunch of confusing sentences about why this is a totally unusually, unreasonable request for me to make, I called it. I simply told her that I'm going to leave because this is very strange. My guess is that this place tries to get by on volume vs quality. I'm sure there are enough first-time people coming through that are misled by the reviews. Note that most of the positive ones are for different locations, but the Coupeville ones generally have something ranging from strange to unhinged. I do hope they improve their practices. It's no doubt a horrible place to work, and I feel bad for the staff. I'll keep checking back on the reviews in case they improve eventually!

Old equipment and dinky office. Called for an appointment for contact lenses prescription…read more Appointment was made. Went to an appointment and after an hour of weird exam stuff with old equipment. I got a glasses prescription and was told they could do contacts. After telling them I would have preferred to find out at the time I made appointment, the receptionist tried to guilt me by showing me she had (has?) cancer. It was odd time to mention and not sure how it relates to appointment making. Anyways, wouldn't recommend
