I was able to get a same day appointment when I called, which was surprising but very much appreciated. I saw Dr Bartek. She was great! Very personable, listened to everything I mentioned. She also was very informative. When it came time to look at frames, the woman who helped me got many options for me to try. She gave me her honest opinion on which looked best. Pricing for glasses, contacts and the exam was broken down and explained in detail. I had an awesome experience from start to finish.

The staff was professional from the moment I walked in to the end of the visit. I was promptly greeted with a smile, given easy forms to sign, and seen by Dr. Roshnee Patel within ten minutes. The store is very clean, dust free, and sanitizer is readily available throughout. Dr. Patel was very warm, welcoming and so down to earth. Just from her warm smile greeting, Dr. Patel immediately made me feel comfortable. She took her time with the exam, explaining things as she went. She answered my questions and concerns with care. She eased my mind. She never rushed me through the exam. More importantly, the exam went well and I was confident that I (finally) received an accurate lens prescription. Via lens scan, she confirmed my suspicion that one of the lenses in my existing-old prescription from a different chain wasn't accurate. Her staff helped me select new frames based on what style I liked. Then, I was encouraged to browse on my own without the hovering nor upsell pressure. I found a great pair of frames in a style I hadn't considered before. There are many designer frames here: Versace, Michael Kors, etc. Later, I saw that the frames sold here are current designs and sold very close to retail price. The frames that I chose were just five dollars more than the manufacturer's website. If I could change anything, I would suggest that the thermostat be adjusted as needed. It was an unseasonally warm day, and it was very warm inside the building. Overall, this was my first time ever using Pearl Vision and Dr. Patel and her staff left a great impression. They've restored my faith in physicians and I will make this my permanent place for glasses.

The inside was very clean and actually had a lot of good glasses selections under well known brand names. I didn't wait long to go back for pretesting and to be seen by the doctor. Dr. Rathmann did a wonderful job explaining my prescription needs in an understandable manner. She was extremely personable and made me feel very comfortable. I felt like she went above and beyond to ensure I knew how to get my best prescription outcome. After my appt came the sales pitch. I understand that with the service will come the explanation of benefits but I felt as stern as I was on what I wanted to purchase that day, the person helping me kept pushing on additional items and "deals". If the manager had listened a bit more to me as a customer, I would have left giving this a 5 star review. Tip: One can use their Target Red Card for glasses and contact purchases to still save 5% and receive the bonus points.

I will never set foot in a Target Optical if I can afford it. Glad we figured out what kind of "doctor" Dr. Desai is upfront. Saved me a lot of time.

The staff again were so accommodating to my needs in getting the contacts I needed and choosing a great Michael Kors frame.

He insisted that I find him an opthalmologist and schedule an appointment. Thanks to Yelp's directory, I was able to find Dr. John Marchon in our area. When I called his office at 10a this morning, Maryann answered the phone. She is extremely pleasant and articulate. I told her about my dad. She apologized for the ophthalmologist being out of the office. Maryann assured me she would speak with him and call me back with his recommendation as soon as possible. Within an hour, I was on the phone with her with instructions from Dr. Marchon. My dad went to the ER at St. Alexius Brothers. The ER Physician was able to diagnose and treat the eye injury. My dad is home without needing to make a follow up appointment with the referring ophthalmologist. Everyone in my family and relatives all stereotypically wear glasses, have had Lasik surgery or use contacts. We're getting up there in age for risk of eye disease. St. Alexius Brothers Hospital is in close proximity to most of us. If any of us ever needs to see an ophthalmologist, Maryann is the person I'm going to say to call first.

He is one of the most brilliant minds in the country; it seems almost bizarre that such an expert is practicing in Hoffman Estates. Any intimidation I felt staring at the walls of accolades immediately melted away when I met the doctor himself. He's perfectly down to earth: conversational, funny, full of stories. . . it puts a patient right at ease! Heck, I would like to take the guy out to lunch and listen to him chat for an hour. Unlike almost every other doctor I've ever met, he didn't have one hand on the doorknob and a "please shut up" look in his eye throughout the visit. He seemed to have abundant time and patience. He performed an in-office procedure on my eyelid. He explained every detail thoroughly and executed the little surgery with great skill, an A+ experience in every way.
