They take more insurance plans than most places in this area and their provide exceptional care It took a few weeks to get in but the exam and fittings are a well-oiled machine with the doctor doing all the testing and exam instead of a tech which was nice. Dr. Sykes is very personable and attentive. He was able to find the right type of contact lens for reading and distance so I don't have to wear my wear my readers on the top of my head anymore. My husband goes here as well and they were very patient with teaching him how to use contact lenses. I like that it's smaller and patient-focused-not like the huge doc in a box places. I'd definitely recommend if you're looking for a place for all your eye care needs.

Went back, did a bunch of tests, and was diagnosed w virtuous detachment. Told it would go away in a month. And to come back and get a new prescription. Went back. Still had it. Told to come back. Long story short I went back 4 times, paying $300 a visit, only to be told it wasn't done yet. Vision declining. Talked to a Duke eye dr friend. She told me to go see an ophthalmologist at Duke. He ran some tests. Said yes I have vitreous detachment, but the problem is that I have cataracts!! So basically I wasted a year, and lost about $1200. So either they are incompetent or corrupt.

It's a welcome breath of fresh air after the terror that some eye doctors can wreak on you. They didn't even attempt to hide any of the normally-hidden fees that these places normally go with. All in all, I was very impressed.

I had an excellent experience here…read more I'd been searching for a replacement for my prescription Oakley sunglasses that had served me well for about eight years. I had originally purchased these Oakley's from Optical Reflections and thought I had lost them (later found!). Although I had a good buying experience eight years prior when buying the Oakley's I thought it would be wise to do some comparison shopping. I did a lot on on-line research before going out and actually visiting several optical shops in the Chapel Hill area. I had decided that I wanted to get some Maui Jim sunglasses this time around because as an avid boater, I learned that the Maui Jim's were highly regarded by boaters for their clarity in the marine environment. I found that although some of the other local shops (that carried the Maui Jim brand) were fine, I was treated especially well at Optical Reflections. Fred, (one of the two owners) actually remembered me, which I found amazing since it had been eight years. He was very knowledgeable about all the prescription sunglasses and yet not pushy. The shop had a very large selection and I was given lots of time to try on the various models. He offered good insight when asked but didn't try to steer me toward any particular choice . . . which I found quite comfortable. It took me two visits to the shop before I was sure of what I wanted. Once I decided on the particular model the ordering process was fast, efficient and accurate. I say "accurate" because when the glasses arrived about two weeks later I was thrilled with them. As a professional photographer the visual world is important to me and therefor I'm Ok with the higher cost of a quality optical product. This purchase has turned out to be one of my most satisfying buying experiences in a long time. The excellent service provided by Fred and the outstanding end result have inspired me to write this review.
