It is very inviting, AND THE CUSTOMER SERVICE - Well, if this was a hotel, it would be rated Forbes 5-Star. The level of customer service provided almost needs its own scale. Dr. Londa was very personable and did not rush me with all my questions. She has really assembled a great office and staff. Meaghan was also great. Very patient with my indecision of frame choice and was able to assist me in narrowing down frames I may like. In closing, there is a reason all of NorthStar Eye Care's reviews consist of 5-Stars. The only thing that could have made this appointment better would have been a pina colada, but then one's vision would get blurry and you may walk out of the office wearing a pair of pint glasses; rather than some fashionable frames.

The staff was very friendly and patient with me AND with my two year old running around in their play area! Even though the store was busy at the time, they went out of their way to show me and give me their opinion on a wide selection of frames, without making me feel rushed. I was paired with a staff member with a similar prescription (the store manager, Odessa) which turned out to be very helpful in selecting frames as well as lens options that best suited that prescription. We had narrowed it down to two frames, and when I couldn't decide between them, she offered to take pictures of me with both so that I could see them from different angles. A small thing, but another example of their attentiveness and above-and-beyond service. My glasses arrived very quickly and exactly as expected, and I received the same great service when I picked them up and had them fitted. I would definitely go back!

Excessive fees...this office charges extra fees for services are typically included by others. For…read moreexample, they recommend that you have your eyes dilated, but its an extra charge. They also recommend that you get the drops to reverse the dilation, but that is also an additional fee. If you are new to wearing contact lenses, you must take a $129 "class", to learn how to put them on and take them out, typically included elsewhere with exam and purchase of contacts. Mind you, you still need to pay for the actual contacts. To avoid that fee, I asked for her prescription to take elsewhere, and they wouldn't do it. I recommend when booking your appointment to ask about extra charges associated with your appointment.

MN FRAUD! MN FRAUD! - Routine vs Medical coding--read this carefully and thoroughly about their…read morebilling and coding practice. I scheduled my annual routine eye check-up with a $10.00 co-pay. Note: I'm not having any issues but scheduled my annual & routine eye check up. At the appointment they start by doing some standard tests and then the DR does their normal and routine tests. If they don't find any eye issues, I only pay the $10.00 co-pay. However, (little did I know) if they find an eye condition they automatically change this to a medical appointment which now costs $65.23. Here is my complaint. The only thing different is them telling me about the condition of my eyes. So instead of saying your eyes are perfect and come back in a year they tell you about an eye condition, they'll keep an eye on it and come back in a year. Is this not the purpose of a check up is to find out the condition of your eyes. Let me repeat: Nothing (no tests, eye checks) was done different from it being a $10.00 visit to a $65.23 visit except they TOLD me about a situation with my eye. There was absolutely no additional work done during that appointment. When I have my dental check-ups they tell me the condition of my teeth. If they find work that needs to be done they don't go back and charge me for the check up. We move forward with my treatment plan. United Health Care said they pay according to the code the doctor's use. The Eye Care Clinic changing this to medical billing generates more money for them and more out of pocket for the customer. Be aware of how they code your visit: medical or routine

Here they took the time to do a full exam (and as suspected) the previous place did it wrong and my prescription was off. The optometrist explained everything to me which was very helpful. I just recently started using glasses (Mostly for reading smaller text) and she was able to point out a few things. Also, I was having a lot of issues with red eye and dry eye (which I assumed was caused by all the medications I take). I had tried Visine and some others and nothing worked. She explained the oil ducts and releasing those. I was 1 million percent happy with the visit. She was very knowledgeable. The staff on the floor was and is extremely helpful, kind caring. One of the girls commented that my partner and I were a really cute couple. Against my now fiancé's wishes (he wants a small wedding... haha) I told the girls they are welcome! The staff explained to me that my insurance would cover bifocals with the visible line which I didn't want. But if I got a second pair I could get what I wanted at a fraction of the price. So I did that and I LOVE, LOVE, LOVE them. They told me to pick out any frame I like and they would work with me on price. The "other" place brought out a box with 8 frames in it and said "pick one this is all your insurance covers, you can't get any other frames". I was even willing to pay extra. But PV would not let me. Don't go there... a hint it's right next to Taco Johns in Maple Grove..... I will from now on get all of my exams and glasses here. Love all of the staff here!!!!

I was educated about every step of my exam and even got to see images of my retina! I didn't feel rushed at all and he really took the time to explain his findings and to answer all my questions. Kimberly helped me pick out my frames and suggested enhancements to prevent breakage (which is a necessity with a 9 month old!). All in all a 10/10 experience, I highly recommend Crystal Vision Clinic!

Overall their flow of getting you on and out felt seamless. The staff swiftly moved me through all of the steps to check my eyes. I did have to wait for my eyes to dilate, so they had me look at frames to save time instead of sitting in a room waiting. I've always been impressed with how personable all of their staff is, and how much they really want you to be happy in your frames. I picked my frames up 2 weeks later, a week ahead of promised timeframe. Overall if you're looking for an eye clinic in the area, it's an amazing option to choose.
