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.

Today I discovered that they measured my PD completely wrong!! Off by 15mm in an rx of -8.0+ I have been terrified all year that my vision was going away because my mother had cataracts in her late 30s. Really terrible experience that decreased my quality of life until my insurance would pay for another exam. Additionally, the plastic rayban frames are the crappiest, lowest QA glasses I have ever had in almost four decades. Go somewhere else.

I used to love Fridley Optical and Brad. That being said... new ownership has taken over (AEG…read moreCorporation). The new people working there are awful. They have treated me with disrespect, very condescending and got very mean spirited when all I was trying to do was get my $417.00 refund back. They couldn't credit my credit card because they received a new card reader that would not credit accounts from the old system. They sent the first check to a wrong address. They make it out that it's my fault and I should go to the post office and straighten it out. Fridley is the one that wrote it wrong. They said they corrected it, but the second check went to the same wrong address, I was lucky enough the postman figured it out and I got it. I'm still waiting for a check from October and the act like they do t know how to take care of the problem. Today the business did not open!!! I think a professional business would put a message on the phone.

Dr. Petronak is still there and he's great, but the opticians are horrible. Someone else mentioned in a review that they're condescending and that description is spot on. The moment we walked in recently we noticed things had changed drastically. Brad, who was one of the kindest people ever, was gone due to personal reasons, but aside from his absence, the atmosphere was unprofessional and kind if Walmart-y. Frames and lenses are overpriced, warranty is a joke, and it's a disorganized zoo where no one is available to help you. Try to ask valid questions and the staff shuts you down. Don't count on anyone calling you when your glasses are ready to be picked up. You pretty much need to just stop in to ask someone since no one answers the phone when you call. I hope Dr. Petronak leaves before this place ruins his great reputation. Brad, everyone misses you and we hope you're doing okay.

It was far and away the best decision I had ever made and best money I ever spent. My eyesight was so bad, I couldn't find the broadside of a barn with 2 hands and a flashlight.

I follow up every year for my annual exam. Dr. Axelson and Dr. Kahil are both great as well. All of the staff are very friendly and helpful. If you need an eye doctor, North Suburban is the best!

I had a great experience at Pearle Vision in Maple Grove and I'm really happy with my new glasses…read more I brought in a prescription from another eye doctor I've been seeing for years, and they made the whole ordering process seamless. 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.
