Instead of the copay and bill your insurance model you may be used to, I was told they'd simply bill my insurance. My insurance paid $167.00 and they sent me a bill for $149.45, which I eventually paid. There was supposedly a $17.55 discount associated with the insurance plan. I had a sty in one of my eyes due to sunscreen clogging my pores. The doctor performed an examination and prescribed tobramycin eye drops to treat the infection, which worked. I don't understand why the cost for this was a rather opaque $334.00. I was planning on using this clinic for my exam and vision needs but who knows how much I'll have to pay out of pocket?! You judge for yourself. The one positive is that I was able to get same day service.

I've been coming here since I moved to Seattle in 2014 and don't have a bad word to say about them. I've always had VSP, and from that perspective I've never even seen a bill from them as I just pay the small copay when I come in and they handle the rest. I also had a strange eye condition where contacts caused me extreme redness and itchy, sore eyes, and over the course of 6-8 months went in several times. Each time the front desk was helpful and fast, my appointment was on time, and the doctor really worked hard to help fix my eyes - which he did! I have been seen by both eye doctors in the office and I can say that either of them are great.

I am visiting from Chicago and forgot my contact supply. I called Seattle Eye Care and they searched through new arrivals to find some of my exact prescription for me to pick up. It was such great customer service! I highly recommend!
