    This is a very busy place and you should expect to wait a long time, but I believe it is worth the…read morewait. The staff is quite careful while performing the tests. my experience has been that I see at least 3 people doing separate tests. Because of the volume of patients, being serviced and the need to record comprehensive data, it takes on the appearance of delay, however, I have found that high quality cannot be expected to be rushed. Bring something to read or listen to while you wait. I would have given the highest grade if they were not chronically overbooked.

    I am a Sight MD patient, but my primary doctor is in Plainview, NY. He is outstanding and the…read moresmartest doctor I have ever met in my life. After my annual visit with him, I mentioned that I wanted to ensure the floaters I had recently experienced were not a significant issue. He recommended I see a doctor at Sight MD in Garden City. The best appointment I could get was a month away, which was not a problem for me. However, on the day of my appointment, I received a call asking me to come earlier, which I did. When I arrived, I was under the impression that I would be seen immediately. Instead, I waited about half an hour before entering the examining rooms. The process involved dilation and a review to discuss the purpose of my visit, followed by another fifteen-minute wait. Then, I underwent an eye exam with a machine, waited again, and was brought into a different room for a vision test. This sequence was confusing to me. If they were part of the same organization, I assumed they would have seen that I had already had a comprehensive exam thirty days ago. But on the other hand, that could be the routine for every visit. After that, I spent an hour waiting in the exam room for the doctor. When the doctor finally arrived, they examined my retina on both eyes and stated I was fine. That took about five minutes. To clarify, this review is not about the doctor's competence, my experience was very brief, so I cannot really comment on their skill. Overall, this office operates more like a factory, with patients as conveyor belt items moving through a system. I will not return to this office again. I am fortunate to have a trusted doctor within the organization who is not part of this office and who provides the quality care I need.

    Dr Garibaldi removed a small cyst from my eye. He was astute and professional. I also appreciated…read morethe recommendations of eye care in general. My previous eye doctor didn't make any such recommendations so it was great. The assistants were nice as well. There was one in particular who had a good sense of humor and lightened up the mood prior to the work. The wait could have been shorter but more importantly I appreciated having a good doctor. The eye is healing nicely. The doctor who gave me the initial exam was ok.

    A year ago, I saw Dr David Sachs at the recommendation of Visionworks in Levittown as my…read moreprescriptions that I was getting at Visionworks were not coming out accurate. As a precaution, they suggested I see an ophthalmologist at OCLI to see if there was anything else going on.Dr Sachs of OClI East Meadow gave me a similar prescription and said that I had narrow angle glaucoma and needed a medical procedure to correct it. I asked him to explain it to me as I was not familiar with this. He explained something very quickly - seemed annoyed & handed me a pamphlet. I asked him what would happen if I did not get this medical procedure. He said I would get blind. I found him very abrupt dismissive and uncaring. Something did not sit with me so I pursued a second opinion. My gut was right as my follow up appointment with another ophthalmologist at a different office said at first glance, it looks like I have narrow angles, but if you look further and take a more detailed look, I absolutely do not have narrow angle glaucoma, and definitely do not need to have any medical procedures! I don't know how a doctor can haphazardly recommend surgery on your eye! Thankfully, something just told me Dr. Sachs was wrong- as well as his impatience and poor bedside manner! A Misdiagnosis could've caused me to have invasive medical surgery on my eyes!!!

    I was referred here by my optometrist. Making an appointment was easy enough via phone call. When I…read morearrived to my appointment, on time, I was greeted with a poorly printed and low on ink sign in sheet. I filled it out then handed it back to the receptionist and proceeded to wait for my appointment. After 40 min of waiting, I asked if I was going to be seen soon and was told someone would call my name. I sat back down for another 15 minutes. Annoyed, I went to a different person (presumably the manager/shift lead) and inquired about what is going on. She scrambled to find my check in, and just to realize it was lost in the mix. They called me in immediately after that. I was seen by a young male doctor who was nice enough. Appointment went smoothly but whatever was going on at the front desk needs to be addressed. Likely never to return to such an unprofessional and disorganized environment.

    Very disappointed with OCLI Vision in Garden City…read more My wife was handed multiple forms to sign before her appointment, but nobody clearly explained that certain tests might not be covered by insurance. We have both medical and vision insurance and were surprised to receive a bill afterward. Getting answers was nearly impossible. Calls went unanswered, emails were ignored, and it took almost 10 days plus an in-person visit before we finally received a response. The office manager, Kristy DiSipio, simply emailed us the signed paperwork and stated that we were responsible for the bill without providing any meaningful explanation. She also left a note for the billing department, and when I called, it was clear nobody was interested in reviewing the situation or helping resolve it. We ultimately paid the bill, but the lack of transparency, poor communication, and dismissive customer service were unacceptable. Patients place their trust in medical providers and deserve honesty, transparency, and clear communication. A professional office should clearly explain any charges that may not be covered by insurance before services are performed, not leave patients with unexpected bills and little explanation afterward.
