Higgins Brothers' Vision Care
74 E Main St,
Plainville, CT

I wish google had an option to add more than 5 stars! Dr. Higgins and his team are absolutely amazing! I've been dealing with visual issues for 20+ years and more recently dry eye from all the past ocular surgeries I've had to have over the last 2 years. Dr. Higgins is so thorough and takes his time to really understand my medical history and ensure I understand every part of his thought process in order to help get to the bottom of resolving the issues I've been having. I was nervous to have another "procedure" but from just speaking with him I felt completely confident in his ability to help me. So far I've had IPL x2 and the newer probing technique to more aggressively treat my dry eye symptoms. I can absolutely say without a doubt my overall comfort has improved and I will continue to be treated by Dr. Higgins and his team for years to come. Incredibly wonderful people -- the world needs more like them!! Thank you all so much for everything you've done for me this far. You guys are the best!!!!!!

I am so grateful I found Dr. Higgins and the OptiLight IPL treatment for my dry eyes. After only one treatment, my dry eyes stopped watering. I was able to wear my contacts again. I didn’t wake up with gritty eyes that were crusted shut. I felt like myself again. I’ve completed all four treatments now, and it feels like we reversed time on my eyes. Dr. Higgins took the time to listen to my condition and was openly invested in my results. He truly cares about his patients. He was thorough in explaining the process, talked me through each procedure in terms I could understand and literally performed a miracle on my eyes. The experience has been life changing. Thank you to Dr. Higgins and his entire team.

I am very thankful to have found Dr. Higgins. This has been one of the best doctor experiences I have ever had. Ewelina, Gabby, Brianna and the rest of the team at this office are very nice and welcoming! I had been struggling with dry eyes from meibomian gland dysfunction for about 13 months before coming to this office. During that time, I saw 5 other eye doctors, who were unable to give me any relief from my symptoms. When I met Dr. Higgins for my first appointment, I was really impressed by him and his knowledge of dry eye disease. I remember having the impression that “he’s got this”. Furthermore, he’s also just a really nice guy who truly cares about his patients. You can tell that he is passionate about being a doctor. During my first appointment in January 2023, when Dr. Higgins assessed my meibomian glands, he stated that there was basically no oil coming out. Over the past 9 months, I have had 6 IPL treatments and done several rounds of platelet rich plasma eye drops. I am thankful and happy to say that the glands have been making great progress healing and I feel significantly better than I did on the day of my first appointment. As an example of my improvements, my mom had to drive me to my first appointment because my eyes were so dry and uncomfortable that driving for 50 minutes from my house to the office was just torturous. Six months later, in June, I drove for 4+ hours from CT to Philadelphia in one shot. My healing as a result of Dr. Higgins and these treatments has significantly improved my quality of life. I can’t recommend this office enough! Thank you!
