I moved to Iowa recently and needed a new eye doctor. My last eye doctor was in Chicago and he was…read morevery up-to-date on the latest technology in eye care systems, technology and products. I wanted something comparable in Iowa, especially an office that had something called Optomap. Optomap is a machine that actually captures images of your retina without having to do dilation. I've been opting to have Optomap images instead of dilation since 2015 and it's been wonderful. So I went to Optopmap.com to locate offices near my area that had the Optomap machine. Vision Park Family Eye care had it! So after doing my research and reading reviews for the Urbandale location I opted to make an appt here and I'm very happy with my decision. Adam was the assistant for Dr. Larson and he was very smart and asked me pointed questions about my eye health. I told Adam I wanted Optomap and he made it happen. He took me through the machines that measured my vision perception, eye pressure, and Optomap. He was also very good at explaining everything to me step-by-step and telling me when and where I'd be hearing noise from a machine so I wasn't startled. He also was nice enough to clean my old glasses and tighten the screws on them! Dr. Larson was fantastic. He explained everything to me very thoroughly, especially since my eyes are now transitioning into a different phase in life where my eye muscles are slower in focusing my vision. He listened to me and honored my request to go back to my previous contact lens brand. We went over the the results of my Optomap and he explained what each thing (spots, veins, shadows) on the image meant in regards to my health. He explained what I would see on the image if I had macular degeneration, high blood pressure, rips/damage in my eyes, etc. In my opinion, this is a much more thorough and accurate way for any optometrist to view your eye health in its ENTIRETY and also the best way to show you visually how your eye looks and what can be done to improve your eye health. Although it is about $39 to do, Optomap is better than dilating your eye because the doctor can only see segments of your eye at a time when its dilated (like puzzle pieces), while Optomap sees your whole eye (the back of it) all at one time (like the whole puzzle put together). It's also a good way to see the history of your eye health (because the images are saved) so if something different appears it can be addressed quickly. Plus it took less than a minute to do and I had no side effects like I would have with dilating. After my visit with Dr. Larson, I went to check out their glasses frames. Another person (I didn't catch her name but she was very nice and helpful) helped me with my glasses and explained to me all the options I could get with my frames and lenses with my insurance (including adding the option to add anti-glare, transition lenses, thinning the lenses (for me because I have a high prescription), blue-light blockers, etc). Their frame selection was very large and I felt very comfortable trying them on and discussing my options. She measured the distance between my eyes and also measured where my pupils fell within the eye glass lens so my vision in my new glasses would be prefect. She also was very patient with me when I asked her my out-of-pocket costs for everything that insurance wouldn't cover. At checkout, I had asked for itemized receipts for my visit (so I could understand what I had paid for and what insurance was paying) and it was not a problem. I was even given a form to claim a rebate that came with my contact lenses. For convenience, my contact lenses will be mailed straight to my home. And my eye glasses will be ready in 7-10 business days for pick up. This office is fantastic and I'm thankful to have found them! They made my move from Chicago to Iowa and the need to find a new eye doctor seamless.

I have a lot of issues with one of my eyes so finding the correct fit is hard! They also have me coming in to make sure they properly fit. I feel heard and they are all so nice and helpful.

The store doesn't show up on the website and they can't email me a prescription, only mail or fax.

The only work around is having the store place my order and to pick them up there in a week or so. Considering I was trying to get the contacts rush ordered, this is massively disappointing.
