I was told I would get a text message when the glasses were ready. It has been four weeks and I have yet to receive a text. The ladies at the front desk are extremely rude. One of them gave out information about my account to a person who is not listed on my approved HIPAA paperwork. I believe this was a violation of HIPAA laws.

Dr. McCashen has been the most thorough exam I have every had and with my eyes (thick lens glasses…read moresince age 3 until I had cataracts removed and lenses implanted) I have been to a boatload of Optometrists and Ophthalmologists in my 54 years. He found the cause of constant headaches when I started (last doc had missed the center of my coke bottles by less than a pencil width and my eyes were fighting to pull to the proper centers) spends the most time with the severe astigmatism and other issues I and family have had. So much so I take the time to get there when I have vision issues. He has helped several shooters including some with advanced vision issues; Bullseye handgun shoots himself and has run IDPA if he can't do it you will be referred to someone who can BEFORE you dump a boatload of $$$.

When I asked if there was anything they could do to help me the sales associate got nasty with me. She told me that if I don't like it I should go find a new eye doctor. I will be taking her advice and relaying it to all my friends and family.

Kept me informed through the whole process to figure out the needed prescription and I walked out of there with the BEST eye sight I've had in years. Did you know there's a way to massage your eyeballs? Obviously not by physically touching them. I didn't even think that was possible.

It had been a few years since i purchased new glasses and i decided it was time to go to any eye…read moredoctor to see if my vision changed any and if i should purchase them. Glasses aren't cheap, and certainly i try to extend the life of my glasses as much as possible. I always try to buy great frames and get lens with all the bells and whistles including transitions etc. The better the quality, the more likely they can last you a few years. I have had both good and bad experiences at other eye doctors and eye care centers when buying glasses down in my old home town in Miami, FL. Since i am new to Van Wert, i tried looking up places near my home for reviews. Sadly, not a lot of info. So i decided to roll the dice and i called Van Wert Family Eye Care to make appointments for my entire family. Glad i came! Beautiful place, friendly staff! I was very glad to find the name brand frames i am used to shopping/buying, especially Nike. What impressed me the most was how high tech this place was! So besides the normal eye exam and eye dilation etc, they take a picture of your eyes using a special camera. It was fascinating when my eye doctor showed me a picture of my eyes and did an in depth explanation on what is going on... both good and bad. I learned a lot! This was definitely something i had not seen anywhere else. In retrospect, wish i had gotten a copy of the picture. My other major surprise was both the time and price to get my new eye glasses. Like i mentioned in the beginning of my review, eye glasses are expensive! I was expecting a high price but found that it was half of what i would normally pay in my old eye care center! I also got my new glasses in a few weeks (two if i remember correctly)instead of well over a month-month and a half in my old place. If you need new glasses or an eye exam, go to Van Wert Family Eye Care!
