I would not use them unless you want to go blind or broke. They charge $75 for photos of your retina that do not appear to work.
When I went in the Optomitrist Grey, was too busy flirting with his intern. They fit me for contacts and when I mentioned I was seeing flashes of light, he told me to come back in three weeks for my contact lens follow up. Three weeks later he I am the last appointment, but I had to wait over an hour between the time my eyes were dialated and when he looked at my eyes. Finally he says "You need to see an Opthamologist right now". He calls around to see if they want me to go to the emergency room right now or wait until morning. It was determined that I would see an Opthamologist the following morning. The next afternoon, I had to have a Scleral Buckle put on my eye for a couple of tears in my retina. Three days later while I am recovering at home. I get a call from Eye Care Associates, and they want to know what happened. I tell them that I had a Scleral buckle and the girl says "whats that". I tell her that it is an eye surgury. She says hope you feel better and then says that they want to bill my last visit as medical visit and I need to give her my insurance information right now.
I'm sure there are better optomitrists in the area. I will even go to Target or Costco.

I cannot imagine what happened with this individual. My experience has been one of great care. I'm really sorry to see that his experience was not a good one and I hope his eye returns to normal function. I live in another state, but use Eye Care Assosiates as my eye care people. And they do an awesome job. Most recently, a blood clot went to my left eye and caused bleeding behind the eye through the veins. I couldn't get to the Centrum store, so used another in my state. He sent the xrays to Dr. Bell and I have never felt so cared for in my life. Long distant phone calls to check on me...offering to answer any questions that might be troubling me...going over the xrays again & again. They are keeping tabs on me even though I'm miles away. Here's a thumbs up to Eye Care Associates of Cary, NC. and also the Raleigh stores. Laura Ely's office where Dr. Grey works is, in my opinion, a very alert and consciencious place of business. It just doesn't make sense to think a doctor would ignore a comment of "flashes of light". Dr.'s have more than one patient and cannot give immediate care to us at times, but to be negligent...I don't think so. Sometimes we will have to wait a bit, but for good reason. Doctors don't become doctors by being negligent. There must be more to this story.
