REVIEWS OF Eye 1st Vision Center IN Georgia

sharon gipson

Facility is very nice and the staff is very professional. The lady who helped me find the proper glasses for me was an unexpected pleasure!

Myrna Feigenbaum

Excellent eye exam; much attention paid to detail. Excellent optician as well as outstanding service and helpfulness.

Meghan Heyburn

Dr. George Shida truly listens to his patients. I have always had issues wearing contacts with an astigmatism and he took the time to figure out why they were not comfortable, which lead to me wearing my glasses everyday. He sat down and trialed multiple brands of contact until he found the one that fit best. I was very impressed. Thank you!

Leila Ibrahim

On time for appointments, don't try to rush you and are very caring

Tracey Newton

Dr. Laura and all the staff were so awesome, and meticulous! Everyone was so friendly!

Brandy Blake

I take my 4 and 6-year-old, and the staff and doctors are wonderful with them.

riley parks

Everyone was so nice there. It was my first time in the other day and the staff was extremely welcoming and helpful. Definitely excited to go back and would recommend to friends and family.

Max Kohler

Very disappointing experience with Eye 1st Vision. From start to finish, they were more concerned with money than me. I asked several questions over the phone, and again in person, regarding the nature of my visit and correlating costs. I was never given a straight answer until I contested the bill I received in the mail. Long story short, I had a medical issue (conjunctivitis), and insurance does not pay anything before my deductible is met (as opposed to a typical eye exam). Of course, this was explained to me only AFTER the examination, even though I specifically asked how the nature of my visit affected costs. This resulted in $190 bill (plus $75 for a prescription) to get rid of pink eye. No samples taken, blood tests, or anything unusual. $190 to diagnose pink eye. Dr. Patel also "needed" me to return later in the week to "track progress," presumably for another $190. Thanks for offering; I declined. I was charged $105 on the spot, and sent a bill in the mail for $85 more. I spoke with Patricia, the office manager, about the situation, and she took off the "refraction exam" cost of $30 because I'm a "special customer". Patricia was condescending. I guess she can afford to be that way working for "the best eye center in Atlanta" according to her. I can add more, but am exhausted even thinking about Eye 1st.

Danie Halcomb

Professional, friendly, efficient & thorough. Great experience!

jereme garland

I really hate posting Google reviews, and I'm brutally honest in even surveys, which i prefer. But Dr. Patel was the best I could hope for. She's incredible. So kind as calming. I would drive an hour to see her... I might in the future.

Gwenieth Kelly

This was my first time visiting this eye center. I was impressed with the Doctor and the service I received getting new glasses. Since I purchased a few pairs, I had reason to spend time with the staff. I was impressed with their customer service skills and the way in which they handled notifying me when my glasses were available. When I picked up my glasses they took the extra time to adjust them perfectly. I would highly recommend this group.

Jorge Suarez

Very nice place and people, good service

T. viv

M Rousseau

I absolutely LOVE Dr.Shida and his staff!!!!! I was recommended to him by my mother and I promise you they are the most nicest, friendly, very thorough office and staff that I've ever encountered. They get you where you need to be with your vision

Valarie Cole

I’ve been going To Dr. Shidha for over 30 years and will never change to another Doctor! Both he and his staff have always given me the very Best Care. I highly recommend him!!!

Mike Coogan

Quick, professional service. Dr. Shida does a great job explaining his treatment and his staff were helpful walking me through how to maximize my insurance benefits.

Emily Simmons

Great experience. Doctor Patel and the office staff were very helpful and friendly. Dr. Patel diagnosed me quickly with an eye infection and gave me the right advice and medicine to take care of it. The office is located in a super easy location right off the Sandy Springs exit of 400 and has free underground parking.

Wole D

Great service

Adriana Pisani

They are excellent... very well equipped and very professional. In my experience they are the most comprehensive vision center I've been treated in my whole life... (I've seen ophthalmologist since I was 5 years old). Dr Shida has been able to find my perfect fit of contacts, and now I can see the best I've seen in my entire life, even after lasik. They are top of the line. I recommend them 100%.

Megan Jowers

I am always able to get in and out of the office for my annual appointment so quickly. Dr. Shida is easy to talk and understand. They are great at taking you back at your appointment time so be sure to arrive 5-10 minutes early for paperwork.

Tammorah DeMercy

Have been seeing Dr. Shida for years and he’s always done the best job!!

Claudio Noriega

Excellent.

Demetria Barnes

I've been taking my children to Eye 1st Vision Center for a couple of years. They've always had a great experience. Staff and Optometrist is professional and friendly. Highly Recommend!!

Dayle Hazel

Very diverse staff! Truly amazing!

Bill Lohmann

I’ve been a patient of Dr. Shida for 30 years. I won’t go anywhere else. He had been just great. As a practicing dentist I need my eyes in tip-top shape. I trust Dr. Shida. A year later, another great appointment.

Margaret Robbins

This place was excellent! Every person on staff treated me with care and made an effort to meet my needs. Dr. Dillehay was very competent, and I think the new prescription she gave me was spot on. I would highly recommend this place. :)

Cam Man

Dr. Shida does a good job. They have a nice office. I was shocked to say the least when they presented my bill which included some fees they did not disclose...(which I've since learned this is a common practice for medical offices) They worked with me after I expressed my dissatisfaction but it left a bad taste. I probably won't return because of the experience and I found out contacts and glasses are significantly less expensive online....Seriously though the office manager said "we expect you to know what your insurance plan covers" (which I did since called my insurance provider and reviewed my plan online before my appointment...But how would a patient know about a service if it (1) wasn't disclosed by the provider that it was being rendered to the patient (2) wasn't disclosed by the provider there is a fee assoicated with the service that is not covered by insurance plan? I mean the office made sure I knew about the $19 retinal imaging fee before I could even sechedule the appointment but i guess they forgot about the other fees. Finally once i go to settle the order the optician asks the op tech if my contacts are ready and she replies "we always have them in stock but he didn't pay for them" in front of the entire office and waiting room (she obviously didn't know actually I just paid for them before I came in to order my glasses or maybe she did know and doesnt have professional tact) but that interaction was the final straw which led me to write this review. Overall experience...N for needs improvement

Mike Hoskin

Dr. Shida takes time, explains everything, and is very thorough with patients. I ask a lot of questions and he is patient and very informative. The staff is awesome as well.

karen bond

Service was great, glasses were superb...better than expected. Highly recommend.

Lia P

Always a pleasure! Always gain good knowledge about my eyes & leave with the nicest designer glasses/sunglasses

Mark Schlabach

I can't say enough nice things about my first experience as a new patient at Eye 1st Vision. Dr. Shida's vast experience as an Optometrist seemed pretty evident to me. He was able to explain complicated scenarios with ease to me, as a patient. I appreciated him using graphics and handouts so I could fully comprehend his advice and findings. The clinic has a top-notch facility with very advanced and modern equipment. The staff is so friendly and also knowledgeable. Normally, I would be wary giving such a glowing review for my N. Fulton doctors because the truly good ones never have availability for routine appointments but with my Optometrist I have a year before my next appointment. I was really impressed from top to bottom with every interaction from the entire staff.

Dominique Sherrod

I was finally done living without my frames and scheduled a last minute annual exam. Everything from the front desk staff to the young woman who handled the preliminary work to Dr. Shida was excellent. He is very attentive and does a great job answering any questions you have and even explaining how the eye works in layman's terms. Dr. Shida, thanks for being an amazing optometrist. I've found my eye doctor. P.S think of me this football season. :)

Keith Harvey

Annique Riddle

Dr. Patel is amazing. She takes the time to talk through your issues and explain everything, but is at the same time is efficient and very professional. I found her on ZocDoc and feel so lucky!

Raphael Santos

The best place in Atlanta

Michael Lefkove

A wonderful doctor. This office is very professional

Superb customer experience

Grant Sagan

Cheryl Jacoby

I have been seeing Dr. Shida for approximately 20 years. He takes a lot of time evaluating your situation. I'm one of those people who notices even small changes with my vision. He and his staff have been very accommodating. The senior optometry technician Ibis is great. Pricing on frames and lenses is a tad high (as it is at most retail stores) however the service is great and if your lenses don't perform as you expected they will have them redone. They will also order several frames for you to review if you can't find what you want in the store.

Emily Baldwin

Great experience. Dr. Patel's staff was very professional, courteous and efficient. Dr. Patel took the time to explain certain things she was looking for in my eye imagery: more so than any other optometrist I've been to. I now have a lot more clarity as to why I need to have my eyes checked every so often - not just for prescription updates, but because they can actually see certain issues involving the brain via the health of the ocular nerve. I have never been told this before by anyone and as a daughter of recent stroke patient and someone who is now very keen on heart/blood/brain health, I am truly grateful she educated me on this!

Bryan Durio

We always get top-notch care and service with Dr. Shida, and have gone to him since 1994. He is patient, takes the time to explain what is going on with your eyesight, answers all of your questions, and is spot-on with a diagnosis. Everyone at Eye 1st is friendly and knowledgeable. We recommend Eye 1st with absolutely no hesitation!

Leah Bliss

Neeraj Mehta

Very friendly staff and Dr Rayne explained my vision problem so nicely. I got my specs ready as well. Nice support team.

Daphne Gwyn

Great staff. Everyone is very friendly and helpful!

Tony Womble

Have been a client for many years. I return to them whenever I have a need for evaluation and/or vision correction.

Jim Weir

Dr. Shida and his team provide the best eye care in Atlanta. They're incredibly thorough, and take the time to explain every procedure and issue in your check-up. They make an annual eye exam hassle-free and easy, with a quick turnaround time on your contacts or glasses. I can't recommend them more.

Jennifer B.

My husband and I have been patients of Eye 1st Vision Center for years now and have no plans to go anywhere else. We’ve moved further away and still make time to go to Eye 1st. Everyone there is cordial, accommodating and their service is incomparable! Dr. Shida, the Optometrist, is very professional and efficient! When Dr. Shida starts his examinations, you know this is a doctor you can trust! Ibis is the Optician we met with on our first visit years ago and have continued to make appointments to see him. If there’s a day that he is not available, one of the other Opticians will see us. (They are all very helpful and friendly) and you cannot go wrong with Vanisha! She is so sweet, patient and calm. In reference to Ibis - in a word Ibis is wonderful! We feel like we’re visiting with a friend. He is an expert in his field and is so kind, considerate, attentive and he makes sure you’re satisfied before you leave. I cannot say enough about how much he cares for his patients! I don’t know if there is a rating scale for the Opticians but if the highest number is “10” I would give Ibis and Vanisha a 20!! Thank you so much Eye 1st Vision Center! We’re fortunate to have found you!

Ali P

Great customer service- always easy to book appointment & in and out in a timely manner.

Mykol Sutton

Dr. Shida is the best! Customer service is always great! You always feel like your concerns are heard, time well spent with every person, never rushed. And, I love the selection of glasses.

Taylor Morales

Dr. Shida was awesome! Truly spent a lot of time explaining things to me and was very professional.

John Bennett

Excellent experience from beginning to end. Highly recommended.

jeff gimpel

Doctor saw me on schedule- at the appointment time- very impressive! I received a very comprehensive exam and am very satisfied with the quality and professionalism of the staff.

Alison Mercer

Dr. Shida is the best eye doctor I’ve ever seen, and I’ve been wearing contacts for 20 years. He fits my eyes perfectly for contacts. The staff is super friendly and it’s always a good experience overall.

Virgos know Everything

I will never go to another eye doctor again. Their entire staff is top notch

Lindsay Kittrell

Wonderful customer service! They really take care of their customers at Eye 1st!

Lamar Kornegay

Great environment with great service! Please check out Eye 1st Vision Center!!

Krissi Banks

I’ve been to this location a few times and each and every time everyone has been a joy to be around. Front desk staff is always smiling and greets me immediately. My last appointment I was able to be examed by Dr. Patel. She was so friendly and asked me multiple times if I had any questions. She made sure that I was comfortable and could ask any questions I had. Thank you!

John McTaggart

Sadly I waited until the final day of the year to exercise my vision benefit. So when I secured an appointment with Eye 1st Vision, had anticipated long wait and hurried examine to move the procrastinator set through the system. The experience was fantastic; promptly kept the scheduled appointment time; the staff were professional, good-humored and committed to a thorough examination. This was my first examine with Eye 1st, they have won my business. Thanks! John

Mary E. Orr

Dr. Shida is very thorough, discovered a problem, referred me approximately. I went back after eye surgery to get contacts. Delightful personality which helps in patient communication. I’ll definitely be back again.

dawn ferenczy zumpano

Most friendly and caring staff. The Dr was amazing and caring.

Jeff DeMercy

Very high quality office, from the front desk to the assistant in the back. Dr Sheida is top notch with spot on diagnosis.

Hisa Fallico

Dr. Shida was extremely knowledgeable, personable and professional. After a complete eye examination; he took the time to discuss available options and gave me some choices to fit my current needs. His assistant had a great sense of humor and I appreciated her attention to detail in conducting my eye tests. The staff in the Opthamology Department was Great !! They were attentive and took the time to check into my insurance benefits. Once I was fitted for my glasses; delivery and follow up was quick and professional (and very kind). Thank You Eye 1st Vision Center.

Apoorva Salimath-Kalasuramath

Efficient, convenient, friendly, as always!

Mohnd Elmontser

Great people, nice place, very proffessional team and always available to assist me and to answer my questions.

Stephanie Colquitt

Dr. Shida was friendly, thorough and knowledgeable. He explained his recommendations and gave me some options. The staff helped me pick out some frames that I love. I'll definitely be back.

Alexander Parillon

I have been having trouble with my sight for quite some time, and no one was able to correct it. Let me tell you, Dr. Patel and Mr. Steve are the business!!!! I will definitely be recommending them to my family members! I can see 20/20 now!!

Sudarsana Shankar

Dr. Shida is great.. This was my first visit and I was very skeptical on my contact lens prescription since certain changes had left me with bad headaches, in my past experiences (with other eye doctors). But Dr.Shida was very confident and told me it will work.. Just trusted him and it was perfect.. Thanks Dr.Shida..Can't thank the Eye 1st team enough.. they're very helpful and work well with your schedule..

Ubiquitous Seymone

Great experience, thus far. Will update once I get my glasses.

Carol Rivera

Dr. Shida is a great doctor, I came in one day with an excruciating pain in my eye, chemical got inside my contact while cleaning my bathroom sink!! Yes, my cornea was burned. I was dying in pain. Dr. Shida was a life saver, took me in right-away, his staff so caring. Very professional they even followed up after hours to see how I was recovering.

Jingya Liu

Kendra King

Friendly office staff & great doctor!

Erica Moore

The whole staff was extremely friendly and answered all of my questions very thoroughly. They also worked with me to figure out how to get the best bang for my buck with what insurance covers. Will definitely be going back.

Julie Gosselin

I worked in the optical industry for many years and came across numerous eye care practitioners but very few who come close to Dr. Shida. My vision is terrible and complicated by other issues. I was unable to wear contact lenses for years until Dr. Shida. He is an excellent clinician. He takes the time to work with his patients and find the best solution to fit your needs. He sees all four in our family. Each of us has very different needs. My daughter sees Dr. Shida for Corneal Refractive Therapy, CRT. These lenses not only keep her from needing to wear glasses or contacts during the day, but they also have stopped the progression of her myopia. Dr. Shida's years of experience and dedication to cutting edge technology and vision solutions make for a great combination. His practice goes well beyond just him. He hires licensed opticians, not a requirement in GA, who can help one select a frame that suits your lifestyle needs, type of prescription, and budget. Having been educated and licensed in opticianry, his optical staff knows how to troubleshoot a pair of glasses, make the necessary adjustments, and deal with complex prescriptions. Having a qualified optical staff is rare these days. The optical department has current (not closeout) frames to meet each person's budget. The big-box stores cannot compete with this winning combo.

T Ivery

Great customer service. Dr. Patel & staff were personable and made the process simple & fast.

Sadan Lamichhane

Dr. George and his associates were very friendly, professional and informative on my visit. Highly recommended if you're looking for an eye doctor in this area.

Bhoopendra Singh

We had satisfactory experience at Dr George Shida’s clinic. He makes sure everything is checked and in best interest of person who needs care. Definitely a recommendation for this vision center.

Brooke Ann

Jeff T

They did an amazing job. I've only been wearing glasses for about 10 years, but out of the last five places I went to, these folks finally got it right. Technology is state of the art, frames are very stylish, it may cost a little more, but it is totally worth it.

Evy Godwin

Knowledgeable, friendly, & caring staff. Great selection of frames!

Jatoyia Armour

They were awesome with my son! He is five and has sensory difficulties and they were so patient and worked hard to make him comfortable! The glasses came back very quickly and my baby was so excited to see a clearer version of the world! Thank you SOOO much!

Anthony Bucci

I went because of all the positive reviews -- but I found George Shida to be pompous and arrogant. Very poor bedside manner. After he left the room, I had to wait 15 minutes before a staff person asked me what I was waiting for -- I told her to have my eyes dilated. They moved me to another room then waited another 20 minutes before Shida walked in. He forgot to dilate my eyes in the other room. Try somewhere else!

Natalie T

I have had such a great experience with Eye 1st vision from start to finish. Efficient and professional. I would recommend to anyone.

Wyndell Black

First class eye service. Great Doctors and staff who take care of their patients. I have been a patient of Dr. Shedia over twenty years and always had the same great care.

Kevin Ingham

Been going here for years. Highly recommend Dr Shida.

Keith Elliott

Efficient. Had a broken temple on my glasses that had to be ordered. Was able to pick them up in less than a week.

Louis Randall

Outstanding service. Extremely professional treatment.

Sanjeev Pathak

First time I've been to a eye doctor where everything was computerized, including the eye chart test. Appointments run on time. Typical paperwork for new patients. A nice clean office. Staff is very friendly.

Nichole Gunn

Dr Shida and the entire team were excellent. Dr Shida took his time to educate me on what was going on with my eyes. The rest of the team were patient and helped this indecisive lady pick a great pair of frames. Highly recommend!

Jennifer Z

They were great! Far more personale than some of the larger places near them. They also filled me in on some options to treat my contact issues which nobody else has in the past. Life changing.

Jessica Lee

I had a great experience from start to finish. The doctor was extremely thorough in explaining everything to me. Carl helped me pick out frames i wouldn't normally try on but they looked amazing on me. For the first time ever in my life my glasses were ready in 2 days instead if waiting a week like I normally do at my old place. I highly recommend them. Entire staff was also very helpful and friendly.

Mady D

The place is very nice. The employees are very professional and friendly. The Doctor is amazing. The best optimist I’ve seen so far. I ma very satisfied.

Dana Sills

I've been going here for almost half my life. Great people, great quality, great care. Take care of your eyes and they will take care of you.

Beth Patrick

I highly recommend Dr. Shida. Very knowledge and personable. Very thorough.

Lorie Moore

Exceptional service! I went for the selection of frames and found an outstanding office team that delivered personalized service. The location is convenient to 400 and 285.

Maili Skollar

Professional, friendly and great selection! I was in a "rush" because I had lost my glasses and they helped me get them quickly. Helped me work through my insurance to save the most money also, I always get my exams with Dr. Shida Thx!

Mananpreet Singh

Overall experience was good at the day of the checkup BUT! When I went back to get my shades with prescription lenses, they denied to give me the original lenses that came with the RayBan giving me unreasonable reasons saying my insurance do not provide it. But my friend also has the insurance from the same provider (he has silver and I have Gold plan) and he got the proper kit with the original lenses. Not sure why I was told it was not covered. Also, the tinting that was done was not good. Right lens has more darker tint than the left one and it creates unpleasant viewing. So it was sort of a rip off and they lied about the original lenses. My personal experience was not good so I am not going to go there ever in future.

Jessica Blanks

Eye First really went the extra mile for me. We have been going for years to Dr. Shida. When my oldest son needed a spare pair of glasses for an overseas trip, Steve found an affordable way to help us get what we needed. He also took the time to repair and make sure his other pair would last while he was away. I usually don't take time to make comments, but Eye First really deserves and big THANK YOU!!

Lori Schaen

Great caring service. Exceeded my expectations. I have already referred friends to this office.

Scott McGuire

Great place! Been going here for years.

Deb B

The staff was friendly helpful and knowledgeable. A great selection of available frames and some great insights into my lenses will keep me coming back here time and again

Archena Dave

Dr. Shida and staff is so cool and awesome. He is the best Eye Dr. in my opinion. He used to work close by in Johns Creek.and so I still go to him. He knows my Eyes very Well!

Rodney Smith

Service is Great!

Cheryl Fulton

Great experience. The doctor was super informative and explained things in detail. They were on time, and very pleasant.

Tay Choudhury

I have been going to Dr. Shida for the past 4 years. Both him and Dr. Patel do a great job. They take their time and answer all questions. They do a good job with maintaining appointment times and I never feel like they rush through my appointment.

varun Vasudevan

Doctors and staff are nice and caring. Dr. Meha Trivedi is the best

Thomas Reynolds

An easy, seemless visit with a team of professionals. I have been going here for over a decade and the experience is always positive.

Tim Owens

Eye 1st Vision Center is a first class facility with a very polite and professional staff. The doctor was patient, courteous and thorough. After the exam all of my vision correction options were made clear and generous discounts were offered for high quality eyewear. Do yourself a favor and visit here before considering America's Best, Vision Center or Wal-Mart. Those companies don't even come close to the experience at Eye 1st.

Catherine Hilton

I was very pleased with my experience at Eye 1st. I would recommend it to others.

Cory Fogel

Very difficult to get someone in optical on the phone. Left a message and know one called back. Called the next day and was told someone would have to call me back. Not the type of service I’m looking for.

Alexander Castiglione

Great place, both Dr. Patel and Dr. Shida are complete professionals, and value your time and needs. If you need a new eye doctor, or aren't happy with your current one - go here. They are great.

Denise Maling

Love the entire staff at Eye First. I have been going to Dr. Shida for about 10 years and wouldn't consider any other eye care center for my needs. They are on time, friendly and will take great care of you using the latest technology.

Dawn Reed

My experience at Eye 1st Vision was excellent from start to finish. It was my first time using my vision insurance plan, and the staff was very helpful helping me clarify the benefits. Dr. Patel was professional and spent quite a bit of time with me assessing my vision. The staff in the glasses store were super helpful both with picking out new frames and when I returned for the fitting. I'll definitely go back!

Jennifer Donlon

Fast, friendly, great frame selection.

SUNee KC

Very friendly staff and most knowledgeable location I have found to know about many aspects of eye care. Finally a place that is trusting and very efficient in every way!

Rebecca Flaim

Terrible. Unprofessional and took 3 hours...

Patricia Kenyada

Very professional and personable staff. Doctor Shida is always on point!

Kim C.

I have been going to Eye 1st Vision for over 10 years. Just recently I had some major vision issues and Eye 1st Vision got me in to see Dr. Shida right away. Once they confirmed i was having distorted vision out of one eye, they took numerous pictures with 2 different types of cameras. It showed that i have an issue within my retina. Dr. Shida recommended an opthamologist and Jacqueline called to get an appt set up for me. It was so nice to have them call and set the appt for me. I would highly recommend Eye 1st Vision due to knowledgeable Doctors and staff and the latest in equipment to check eye health. The office is very nice and the selection of frames has always met my needs for glasses and prescription sunglasses.

Claudia Dabrowski

Very nice, friendly, and helpful employees

Deidra Stewart

Dr Shida always take time to explain his plan for your vision. He will answer any questions and is very patient.

Howard Smith

I've worked with Dr. Shida and his team for nearly 20 years! The office staff is professional and efficient. Dr. Shida knows his stuff ! The connected store always has a wide variety current and fashionable eyewear. I've tried others but I find Dr. Shida's office to be the best.

Timothy Gunter

Top Notch! Highly recommend! I was experiencing some blurred vision and discomfort in one of my eyes and scheduled a same day appointment. Dr. Patel took care of me and was able to diagnose my condition after an eye exam. It was a relief knowing exactly what it was and it would only be a matter of time before my vision gets back to normal. Dr. Patel is the best!

Melton McWilliams

Very knowledgeable staff and Dr. Shida is very informative. Highly recommend.

Kacey Stuck

Such a great office - all of the staff are kind and knowledgeable. I've seen both doctors, and they are both great. Great selection of frames, and prescription lenses are ready super fast.

Santosh Das

Very impressed with the service staff . Doctors take their time to analyze each aspect and very well organized. I would recommend this place for eye care to everyone.

Shannon Curtis

The customer service was phenomenal during my visit on Friday, January 19, 2018. Vanisha took her time and explained any questions that I had in reference to the eye wear selection and insurance coverage. I am pleased with my visit from being greeted the moment I walked in until the time I departed. I would definitely recommend Eye 1st Vision to family and friends. Happy Client, Shannon Curtis

David Amber

They were great! From the paperwork to the selection of the glasses. Super nice! Had conversation through the whole process. Broke down what specific things meant, and made me feel extra comfortable. And the Doctor

Shar

EYE-mazing. Thank you Eye 1st Vision Center

Parsa Behnia

First time patient at Eye 1st. I went to see Dr. Shida. He was excellent. He was quick and efficient but took the time to answer my questions and concerns. From walk in to walk out with a full exam with eyeglasses and contacts, took less than an hour. Also, their online service to fill out your history and book appointments is always a plus. Will make this my regular office for eye exams.

Ashlyn Staples

I had gone out of town for a wedding and completely forgot to bring my daily wear contacts. Luckily Eye 1st Vision Center is open on Saturdays and were able to call in my prescription to a local Wal-Mart for me to pick up. Their staff is so friendly and helpful, I recommend them to everybody!

Lauren Nieves

Lou Randall

I have been seeing Dr. Shida for 15 years. He has taken extremely good care of me. I wouldn't think of ever going to anyone else.

Christie Bryant

I had an appointment on January 12, 2019. They have a friendly staff. They are extremely knowledgeable. I had an awesome visit!

Liliana Lungu

Great experience. They listened to my concerns and addressed them. Through explanations to all my questions. The optician was very knowledgeable as well. You found me a new place to get my eyes checked. Very happy.

LaToya Newman

I really like Eye 1st Vision! They are very thorough and knowledgeable. From the moment I walk in the door, the experience is awesome! I can get my eyes checked and then go over to the optical center to choose from the vast array of glasses! It's pretty awesome.

George Wieder

Great experience as always! Friendly, efficient and professional staff. Dr. Shida is an outstanding optometrist and has been checking my eyes for 20 years.

Toni Graham

Excellent service! Dr. Trivedi was very thorough, informative and caring with my 6 year old daughter.

Karen Holmes

Very friendly and competent. Fair prices.

I started this process in June this year. Due to strenuous work hrs, It made it extremely difficult to go in for follow-ups. Although my schedule was crazy, I've never experienced so many follow-ups in getting my prescription right for contacts. And because this process had grown so long I began to experience a lot of tension and frustration from some of the staff and the Dr. Finally we wrapped that process up with what seem to be a decent pair of contacts, so I finally had an opportunity to pick glasses. This was probably the worst part of the experience because the entire time I was treated like a criminal. The Spanish guy was not helpful, provided no guidance or feedback, however every time I moved somewhere he followed and when I took a pair of glasses off the shelf he would check them and lock the case back. I only wear one brand of glasses RayBans and I spent most of my time there. The case was full however, the Spanish man made it his duty to pretend he was working in that case so he could watch what I was doing. Once I found some glasses and asked for his help, he was the least bit attentive, I was adjusting on my OWN. Finally, frustration grew and I shared my experience with the office manager and she assured he was the best and all the review say and was having a bad day and to try it again. I did. Once the Office Manager grabbed his attention, he still wasn't helpful, he was just there bc she was, then he obviously overheard my rant because he said he was only in the case with me to add more glasses, the entire case was filled when I was over there looking, he did not replace nor added anything. So, I just left it alone and tried to be a good sport bc the Office lady was very kind. Then the Spanish guy whole family shows and slowing down my process to purchase glasses. So, now, I cant get what I need accomplished because he's attending to his children. Kids are cute but not in the workplace when ppl are short on time. I was so annoyed I selected 3 and told them I would come back later that wk. Came back the next wk was not greeted by the Spanish guy, completely ignored me, the other lady helped me pick my glasses. 2wks later The glasses were ready for pickup but they looked completely different from the ones I tried on. I tried to explain this to the Indian girl that finally decided to come and help but I couldn't get a word out bc she kept cutting me off. No one seem to know anything and the Spanish guy that runs that area was not there. So I was told they were going to order the same pair to see if there was a difference, but its been 2 wks now and Ive heard nothing. The office manager call a few days ago and of all this left a voicemail asking me why my glasses were still there... Shouldn't her staffer have notified her of why they were still there. That VM was a clear indication that they did not do what they said they were going to do.. I just called today, was placed on hold and sent to VM. Its been 4wks and still no update... I would not recommend this company.

My experience was excellent! All of the staff members were very kind and helpful. The customer service was beyond compare. Dr. Patel really took the time to go over all of my eye-care options and was very informative. I will definitely recommend their services to all of my associates.

The only thing I would suggest is friendlier and more helpful people in the vision center to help you find a nice pair of glasses. I could've used some help picking them out. I now have a pair that doesn't really fit very good. But for $400 I guess I'm stuck wearing them til next time. It's my own fault but it would've been nice to have some look at them and give a professional opinion on them.

The selection of glasses is exceptional. I was assisted by two people who were incredibly helpful and really listened to what I said I was looking for. I am excited about my purchase and can't wait to get my new glasses!

Dr. Shida and staff were excellent!

The best vision center experience I have ever had. I am very particular, every where I go I use the following statement when asked which frames I would like, "I want Oprah's frames". This is the only place that understood what I wanted. The customer service is amazing, from the moment you enter the building till you leave. Dr. Patel and staff have a permanent patient now!!! There are not enough words to explain how much I appreciate the quality of the service I received.

Had the best experience with Eye 1st Vision Center and so far the best eye care center I have visited. Dr Trivedi is the very patient in explaning all your questions and concerns. Would recommend to all my friends and colleagues.

Good collection of frames including budget frames.

I finally found the right store! I am far sighted and have to protect my eyes as well. Since I found this facility I am happy with my glasses. There is a optician available who is very capable, has a good taste and does a great job.

Never made it into the office for a visit. Called in to schedule a new patient appointment and the young guy who answered the phone left me on hold for over 10 minutes. :/ Not a great way to start out..... Hung up the phone and called somewhere else who had time to speak to me.

Great staff! Got an amazing pair of multifunction contacts, goodbye readers!!

I visited Eye 1st for the first time in December, since it was right by my hair salon and I needed a new eye doctor. I am so glad I did! I had a great experience there, and everyone has been very friendly and helpful. I had an issue with my contact order that was placed there, so had to revisit in January to try to figure out what the problem was. Throughout that whole process, they were professional, helpful and took care of the problem very quickly. I will definitely keep my business here for a long time to come.
