I was disappointed with the full eye exam that I had at the Richmond Costco clinic. The clinic did…read morenot conduct the peripheral vision test for me. I raised my concern with the office technician, she only said that they would call me back if the doctor deemed if it is necessary: obviously they didnot call me. That only thing I would suggest is that since I had an eye laser surgery 2 years ago, I thought they would do the test as a routine. Furthermore, I had to wait for over 35 minutes after my eye dilation for the doctor to exam my eyes. There is no waiting room in teh area and no chairs are provided for waiting. I believe the clinic appears to overbook patients without leaving sufficient time allotted for each patient.

I first became a client of this office back in 2021. I hadn't had my eyes examined since I was a…read moreteenager, and that was roughly ten years ago. I didn't remember much about the process, and wasn't sure if I could have my vision examined at a new optometrist without going back to the one my parents had taken me to as a kid. After I made an appointment online, their office sent me an electronic questionnaire which I was able to return by email. It was great to be able to fill out the paperwork at home, which allowed me to jump right to the exam when I arrived for my appointment the next day. I came for my second examination a few months ago, and my experience was just as positive. The optometrist expertly tested my prescription, and the experience was comfortable and enjoyable. I now have my second pair of eyeglasses manufactured from a prescription measured by this office, and it looks just as crystal clear as the first. I am looking forward to returning many more times in the years to come!

I've had two issues with this clinic. The first was when I visited them the first time and the…read morepart time optometrist I dealt with at the time was quite rude to the point I was going to leave and go somewhere else. I will give the owner credit, he did step up to help and saved the sale and experience. Today, 6 months later, I ordered glasses through another store and it turns out the prescription was incorrect. I've worn contacts without issue and now when I compare my old prescription to my new one, it is obvious they made a mistake. I called in and it sure seems like they were unhappy. They asked me to come in to check the glasses and make are the prescription was right. My left eye is clear as can be and my right eye is completely blurry. Even though I ordered using their instructions they now wanted to charge me again for a re check even though my contacts are perfect, but now the prescription for my glasses is wrong. I am simply going to another optometrist and paying them instead. The staff seemed unhappy and the owner wasn't nearly as cheerful as the last time. All I was looking for is someone to honour what they provided. I'm a fair guy, business owner myself and I get it. It's not about the money but the overall experience of unhappy staff and them not being interested in running a practice that backs up what they do turns me off completely.

It means Dr Kirzner has extensive experience in the field because he's done over 80000 procedures!! My first contact with them was through email. I had asked how long in advance I was to book for an appointment in July. They replied and told me to contact them in May for a July appointment. I called their office to book my appointment then and they took my credit card number for the $300 deposit to secure my spot. Shortly after, I received their information package in the mail. The week of the surgery, I flew in from Calgary the day of my pre-operative exams to see if I was a good candidate for PRK or LASIK. Because of my read up on their very informative website I knew that I was probably going to go with PRK. (Long spiel about the different procedures explained on their website if you're so inclined to know.) It was a bit of a wait to see someone; from the time I got there until the time I left took almost 2 hours. Next day, I am going in for my laser procedure! I get there an hour before the scheduled time to to prep and redo my eye exams two more times. First up, they explain the eye drop medication schedule to you and place them all into the blue pouch along with some really awesome sunnies for after. (Actually, the sunnies are kind of hideous.) Payment is processed and another little eye test again. Dr Kirzner was the first to do my actual eye exam again and then Jeff (?) did the second. Once that was finished, onto the waiting room in the surgical section... When they're ready for you they'll get you to don an awesome surgical cap and booties! You lay down right under the laser and try your best to get comfortable. You'll get numbing eye drops which sort of sting when they're first administered. (Hey, where was the Valium I was hoping to get?) My heart was beating pretty heavily at this point but they explain every step of the way what's expected of you and what they're doing to you. Left eye gets covered first and your right eye gets clamped open. You concentrate on a red blinking light. The assistant announces "30 seconds," at which point Dr Kirzner starts to apply the solution to wipe away the epithelial layer of your eye. Laser starts up and he warns you that you'll smell something like burning hair. I don't feel a thing. I just hear the laser beams doing their thing and my eyes can literally see the patterns that are being burned away. So cool!!! And then it's done within seconds and he covers my eyeball really quickly, then blasts a cold cold liquid solution into my eye. He says, "brain freeze!" to warn me beforehand. A number of different eye drops are administered, then the bandage lens is put in which is basically a contact lens. The eye patch is removed and placed on the opposite eye and all is repeated. Done! I was escorted to the recovery room and laid on a chaise to relax. I was given eye drops to put in 10 minutes later on my own. There was a patient's husband waiting for her in there as well and at one point I started to sit up and chat with him. I was promptly told to lay back and close my eyes by one of the assistants. Oops! It just goes to show how uncomplicated the procedure can be. I felt like I could see pretty well at this point. About 45 minutes later Dr Kirzner came out of the surgical suite to quickly take a close look at my eyes, put in more eye drops, and then let me go. I have my follow up the next morning to check how they're healing and to look for signs of infection. I truly feel that this practice is wonderful and I would highly recommend them to anyone. Not just for their incredible pricing, but for how I felt I was treated by all the staff there. It is a busy practice and it is expected that there will be waits, but never did I feel that I was just another number. I paid $2090 for both eyes for uncomplicated PRK plus $200 for medications as of July 2016. Just a side note: I did overhear that they're moving their office in August so people can probably expect a longer wait for an appointment while they get settled in and move.

I have been a patient of Delta Eye Clinic's for 5 months now, and don't plan on going anywhere…read moreelse. My first introduction to them was in June of this year. I had (unbeknownst to me at the time) a swollen cornea and was calling around looking for someone who would see me as a drop-in. Though they were closed at the time I called, someone at Delta Eye Clinic actually called me back when they opened! And that was without me even leaving a message. I have never gotten that kind of treatment from any professional before. But that sums up the level of care this establishment will give patients. I booked an appointment a few hours later, and have been going there repeatedly since. I have been diagnosed with a fairly uncommon eye condition for 9 years now. To date my treatment had involved wearing hard contact lenses. As I was told, that was the optimal way for me to have clear vision, and I was never presented any alternatives from my lens fitter or Ophthalmologists. But after seeing Dr. Jagpal at Delta Eye Clinic, I was presented with alternatives. I found out there were surgical options available to me that could stop the need for hard lenses, or perhaps any lenses at all in my eyes. After 9 years of wearing uncomfortable, hard contact lenses, finding out that information after my first visit was literally life changing. And now 5 short months later, I am on the road to a second chance with my vision. I have had one eye operated on, and the other will be done next year. And it's all thanks to my consultations with Delta Eye Clinic and their referrals to other eye specialists. I am confident I am getting the best care in the world for my eyes now. And I am always including in the decision making process every step of the way. My options are always laid out, but it's up to me to choose what I wish to do. The staff at Delta Eye Clinic is always friendly, courteous, and very professional. There are always reminder calls before appointments, and if followups are needed they can be booked on the spot before you leave your current appointment. That's a huge plus, as in my experience, some clinics won't let you schedule anything more than a week ahead. The bottom line is this: in 5 months with Dr. Jagpal at Delta Eye Clinic, I have had better care and made more progress with my vision than I had in 9 years previously. That's a fact. I highly recommend Delta Eye Clinic to anyone in the lower mainland area.
