I was looking for a top rated ophthalmologist to perform my Cataract Surgery here in Boca Raton. I…read morefound Dr. Bellotte as the highest and most rated ophthalmologist in Boca Raton on both Google and Yelp and decided to look into it. After visiting his website and reading all his achievements, I was very impressed and decided to give his West Boca Eye Center a call. They immediately scheduled me to see him and I was happy with his immediate availability. While visiting his office, I was impressed by the well designed office, the ample size of the office as well as the amount of friendly and knowledgeable staff. When I finally met Dr. Bellotte, he was very friendly with lots of expertise. He didn't push me into any particular lens or operating procedure but simply gave me options and prices accordingly for me to decide. After choosing the best lens and procedure available, with lots of pay options to choose from (went with the Care Credit Card), I booked the operation a week later and put it on the card. When it came to the operation itself, it went very smoothly, about 30mins to fill out forms, 10-15 mins for eye drops and ivy fluids, about 10-15mins for the entire operation, and then an hour or so for recovery before pickup to go home. Initial recovery after the operation was literally 24 hours, with better eye sight right away and full recovery about a week later. Each day after the operation, my eye sight would improve, and at follow up the center said no complications were present. I of course expected the best of recovery since Dr. Bellotte has been awarded a 99% safety award with his procedures. I ended up doing both eyes, and now I'm at 20/20 vision at my senior age and no need to wear glasses for both close up or distance vision, after decades of wearing glasses. I can't thank Dr. Bellotte enough for my new eyes and am recommending my son to do his Laser Vitreolysis (Laser Floater Removal) with Dr. Bellotte as well. In conclusion, after reading all the 5-star reviews, I now find myself writing one as well and it's well deserved. A+ for Dr. Bellotte and his staff from a very grateful and satisfied patient.

I've been a patient of Dr. Clewner's for 11 years, and always think, after my yearly visits, that I…read morereally need to add a review on Yelp. Even though many fellow Yelpers utilize Yelp for identiying restaurants, I'm certain some of them get yearly eye exams, and are interested in knowing about a highly qualified, board certified ophthalmologist. First of all, I strongly recommend that if you are over a certain age (maybe 40?), and/or have any medical condition which might affect your eyesights, eg, diabetes, you really would be negligent if you had your eyes examined by an optometrist, who really only speciaize in examining your eyes to fit for prescription glasses. So, go to a MEDICAL DOCTOR who specializes in the eye, and the diseases of the year, some of them which occur naturally with aging, such as cataracts. Clewner is associated with Boca Raton Regional Hospital. One of his specialities is cornea and external ocular diseases. He received his medical degree at NYU, and his ophthalmology training at the New York Eye and Ear Infirmary in NYC. He has been in practice since the 1980's, is a well trained professional. And, I'm certain you'll like his "vibe". He doesn't rush his examinations, listens to any concerns or complaints you may have - actually proactively asks you if you have any. He is approachable, which is an important quality in physicians. While his practice is a busy one, appointments are not difficult to get, and if you have an urgent problem, his staff will get you in to see him that day or the next. As an example, I woke up one morning about 6 months ago with one eye totally closed and swollen. It was scary, as you might expect. I did not want to assume it was simply allergies, as there was some pain associated with the swelling. His scheduler got me an appointment later that day, and the diagnosis was an infection, and I received the required prescriptions, as well as some sample medication to get me started. So, treat your eyes as good as you treat your palate and food preferences - and only go to someone who is a professional, sensitive provider, and you'll be pleased you made that decision. His office accepts all insurance.

It's a shame because the doctor is very professional.

I brought my wife, Barb, to West Boca Eye Center and Dr. Bellotte. Barb is a long term plaquenil…read moreuser. Barb needed a thorough eye exam because of the damage plaquenil can cause on the eyes especially blindness. Dr. Bellotte had an amazing amount of positive reviews online. We were very impressed with the waiting area and the well organized check-in process. When Barb was called into the exam process, she underwent a variety of tests on a wide variety of eye testing hardware. The team member, Meghan, was very caring and explained each test to us. We understood what was being collected and why. We appreciated what we learned vs being kept in the dark and uninformed which has been my experience with most medical testing. Barb's eye pressures were tested a couple of times. When Dr. Bellotte can into the exam room, we found out why. Dr. Bellotte was very thorough going over all the tests and providing results in non technical human language. His team found that Barb's eye pressures are very high. Barb is sufferring from glaucoma which could lead to a loss of her eye sight if not treated. We also learned that we should inform our children because this condition could be passed on to them. Another thing that our kids can complain about when they are angry with us. Dr. Bellotte's genuine concern for Barb's condition was very appreciated. We felt very comforted by his manner. I could see that Dr. Bellotte put Barb at ease as he explained how he could make things better for her eyesight. Dr. Bellotte explained that he could provide treatment in his office with an eye 'degunking" laser. It would be several treatments but her eye pressures would be in normal ranges. Barb also was provided a treatment plan for helping her overcome dry eye issues. Thanks to Dr Bellotte and his team for helping Barb avoid a loss of her eyesight. I definitely learned today how precious eyesight is and how you can lose it by not having the right care. I highly recommend Dr. Bellotte and his team!

Dear Dr. Cohen and the entire team at Cohen Laser and Vision Center,…read moreI am writing this letter with deep gratitude and the immense satisfaction of someone who has regained a sense of freedom I thought was long gone. After undergoing LASIK refractive surgery at your clinic, I can confidently say it has been one of the most life-changing decisions I have ever made. From my very first consultation, I knew I was in the best possible hands. It is natural to feel a bit of nerves when it comes to eye surgery, but your team's professionalism, warmth, and transparency immediately put me at ease. Thank you for taking the time to explain every technical detail, answering all my questions with patience, and providing the peace of mind I needed to move forward. The Precision of the Procedure: The surgery was incredibly fast and efficient. It is clear that you utilize world-class technology combined with elite surgical skill. I was prepared for some level of discomfort, but to my surprise, the entire process was painless, and my recovery has been remarkably smooth and trouble-free. Every staff member treated me with genuine care, focusing not just on the clinical results, but on my comfort as a patient. Waking up today and seeing the world in perfect clarity without reaching for my glasses is a feeling I cannot adequately describe. Thank you for restoring my daily comfort and for the impeccable standards you maintain at your practice. I will not hesitate to recommend Cohen Laser and Vision Center to anyone seeking excellence in vision care. You are a true example of how medical expertise and human compassion should go hand in hand. With my sincerest thanks, Raycel Pupo
