The cost was very reasonable compared to other local places. We were a bit concerned at to the quality of the Docs as they were connected to Walmart- though they do run their own shop. I actually feel that this was a benefit as the Doc could focus on eye health and the vision shop could assist with the glasses as separate transactions. Will be back yearly to work with this location!

We have never had a problem with getting a copy of our full prescriptions. We usually order glasses here, as the cost is partially covered by our insurance. We can use the prescription(s) (for reading glasses or sunglasses) elsewhere as well.

I LOVE this eye doctor. I really do. I got to see an actual eye doctor, in person, not this new…read morevirtual nonsense so many other places have defaulted to (ahem EyeCare center). I watched Dr. Taylor put in the prescription right then and there which was also fantastic, don't remember the last time I saw a doctor put everything in instead of an assistant. Dr. Taylor was extremely knowledgeable and answered all our questions and was very patient with us. Turns out my daughter has the unusual and rare anisometropia that will need correction but ultimately he left it up to us for when why. Anywhere else would have immediately put her in glasses and charged an arm and a leg for the insane prescription she needs. Can begin to say how much I appreciate being in charge of our care and wallet. They were fantastic enough to do both me and my daughter's appointment at exactly the same time. And I don't mean I did mine and she followed behind me. We were together for the entire appointment, PERFECT for a kid's first appointment or in our case someone who struggles speaking to strangers. Which actually wasn't a problem, partially because I was there and she was able to watch me and partially because of how great the staff was. They really were so great with her that I know that she won't need me with her but has the option of she wants me. They helped up maximize our insurance benefits which is one of the most important things. They didn't just max everything out they helped us get what we need and use all of our benefit, our out of pocket costs were negligible. I prefer contacts but I need prescription sunglasses for those days I don't wear contacts. Previous providers have just put in orders for contacts not even asking what I want and I walk out $600 lighter and ALWAYS have many contacts left over that what am I supposed to do with?? I was never allowed to just order a box or two, or more accurately I probably was the office just never let me because why would they? Jacksonville Visions Center however let me, I felt like I could actually ask questions and had control over what was happening. Dr. Taylor wrote the prescription for whatever I needed for a year but they are allowing me to order a few boxes at a time so I don't end up with a stock pile of contacts I don't need and don't know what to do with. I cannot rave enough at how patient, knowledgeable and helpful they were with helping my indecisive daughter pick her first pair of glasses. It is a very big decision and they were so AMAZING. I cannot remember her name ((I'll update when I do)) was so great. She put so much attention into making sure the glasses fit her face and complimented her. She was more than happy to collect all 59 pairs and let her keep trying them on. She had a great system for narrowing them down, let her walk around the store and hang out with them while I was searching so she could get a feel for them. It took a bit of time and effort but she found the perfect glasses and she is so happy with them. I believe she's had them 4 months now and she's not complained once, except of course she needs them tightened again and we know we just gotta head in to the office (today hopefully) and they'll get her situated. We REALLY love Jacksonville Vision Center. The only complaint I have is not knowing they existed before! We wasted so much time and energy with EyeCare center just to talk to a tv screen. My whole family has switched and we couldn't be happier. I am certain you will not regret seeing Dr. Taylor.

I have been going to Family Eye Care (Doctors Co nekin and…read moreButler) for several years. Dr. Butler is very nice and thorough. However, some of the members of their office staff are incompetent and rude. The latest incident was a complete mishap with advice that I was given as to how to order my contact lenses utilizing my insurance. Today, the office manager told me, "I'm so sorry you were told that." I was 'told that' by a member of YOUR staff. Way to not take responsibility for the complete misinformation YOUR staff gave me. I have filed a formal grievance with my insurance. This is a constant issue with Family Eye Care - some members of their office staff are rude and incompetent and they refuse to take responsibility for that. To keep and maintain loyal clients, you'd think a medical office would take responsibility for what a patient was told.

I normally see Dr. John (Desmone), but I've also seen Dr. Barbara (Desmone) over the years when he was unavailable. I have high intraocular pressure, which means I'm at risk of getting glaucoma. Everyone who works here is so kind about my nervousness with eye exams. Additionally, both doctors never rush me and always answer the many questions I have! Their optical technology equipment is modern and provides excellent testing to establish a history of your eye health. I used to drive 2 hours to see my previous eye care doctor because of bad experiences with others in the area. When I found DFEC in 2020, I was relieved and happy to be fortunate enough to receive excellent eye care, with the focus on the word "care"!

Dr. Conekin was very kind and professional. He explained things in a way that was easy to understand and helped us determine a plan to keep our daughter's eyes healthy.
