I had such a wonderful experience from beginning to end! Everyone I interacted with was kind, welcoming, and professional, and I really wanted to take the time to recognize them.
Lizet at the front desk was extremely helpful and accommodating. She went out of her way to get me in and scheduled as soon as possible, which I truly appreciated.
Angel, the medical assistant, was absolutely amazing! She was kind, professional, and super funny. She made me feel comfortable throughout the entire process, and her personality made the appointment so much more enjoyable.
Maria was also absolutely wonderful to me. I’m not exactly sure of her position in the office, but I definitely wanted to mention her because of how kind, attentive, and welcoming she was. She made a great impression on me, and I truly appreciated the way she treated me.
And Julian was incredible! He was patient, professional, and genuinely took his time helping me. I was looking for a specific style of clear glasses, and he went above and beyond, looking through different options and finding additional styles for me to try. I never felt rushed or pressured, and thanks to him, I found a beautiful pair of glasses that I absolutely love.
Thank you, Lizet, Angel, Maria, and Julian, for making my experience such a positive one. Each of you made me feel taken care of in your own way. It’s not often that you come across an entire team that makes you feel so welcomed and valued as a patient. I truly appreciate all of you and the exceptional service and care I received!

In today’s Raquel Vera’s experience, it was AMAZING! With the help of Julian Oviedo at South Florida Eyecare Centers, it was a perfect opportunity and time for Raquel Vera to get her eyecare taken care of. With Julian Oviedo explaining and helping Raquel Vera with what she needs for her eye health, makes her feel better, confident and relaxed about herself. Thank you so much Julian Oviedo for being so kind, helpful, and a very generous person that you are.

Ive been coming to this center with my mother (E.R) for approximatly 5 years. The service has always been okay.
On Wednesday July 22nd 2026 we had the pleasure to meet with Dayanis. Young lady with enormous costumer service qualifications. First thing i asked the doctor was-"where was she last year?"
Her patience for seniors is beyond exceptional. She is very attentive and kind. I was surprisingly taken by her good manners, deliverance and outstanding client service.
She made an impact about my future decisions into continuing to come to this center.

I was checked and prepared to be seen by Dayavis, who was thorough in her examination. She was patient, helpful, knowledgeable and candid in taking information about my eye-health. Lastly, she explained concisely of the differences between eye picture with camera and dilating with drops. Overall, she good and cares in what she does.

The service here is crazy. The wait time to be seen. The prices are too expensive then you pay all that money for glasses and they are not even ready on time. I waited over 3 weeks for my glasses to be ready. I definitely have to find another eye doctor!

Came to pick up my daughters glasses. Put the kids name down on the sign in sheet. Waited 15 minutes more clients came in. They put there name down. Another 5 minutes pass and I see the person that got here way after us alredy being helped. Brought it up to the front desk was told she had an appointment. Checked the list show consult. She was discussing her broken glasses. No appointment are given according to the sheet for pick ups and repairs. So aging makes no sense. I would avoid this place.

I had the eye opening experience of my life at this place.
The Doctors I have no qualm with, is their sales departments approach to the up selling technics. For years I had been attending this facility for my eyecare needs with out questioning their procedures. All that change recently. I was always bought my eye ware through insurance and I had no idea as to what the insurance covers or not so I depended on their sales team to help me. Recently I changed insurance and I was for the first time told the benefit amount I was entitled to. With the new insurance I could buy contacts, bifocals, frames and any other addons I wanted with the knowledge that I would have to pay any overages I incurred. The sales person proceeded to bring the tray I was always shown and the same information was articulated "these are the frames your insurance will pay for". The tray was full of unappealing frames that would brake your heart. I asked for bifocals lenses and the sales person articulated "your insurance does not pays for that". We proceeded to what she had to offer and ended up with reading glasses only for almost the total of my benefits.
Days before this happening to me they were asking for $504.00 for glasses with polycarbonate, transition, and antiglare for one of my sons and $385.00 for glasses with polycarbonate, transition, and antiglare for my other son. Mind you these were not the frames my sons wanted, and that helped me tremendously. I told my sons if they did not see what they wanted we could go to another place and see if they can get wat they were looking for. After visiting various places we ended up at of all places Walmart and from $504.00 we were able to get what my son what he wanted and more for total of $365.00 including polycarbonate, transition, antiglare, a second pair of safety glasses with a 1 year protection that was not included in the $504.00 price. For my other son from $385.00 we lowered it to 325.00 and he got polycarbonate, transition, antiglare, a second pair of safety glasses with a 1 year protection that was not included at the $385.00 price ither. So if you decide to visit these doctors take your prescription and do some walking to find what is better for you. Some think it is not my money, but if you don't use it wisely it will end up coming out of your pocket. So I took my prescription and went to another place and was able to obtain my bifocals for less than my benefits with a frame I picked from the wall and not from a tray of dilapidated unappealing frames including Polycarbonate lenses. I have documented all that I am stating in this review so that we may avoid confusions latter on. If your prescription is wrong you can complain to the Florida Board of Optometry.
Today 12/08/2023 received my new glasses form _______ and they are what I had asked from South Florida Eyecare Center and they wanted to charge me for it claiming that my insurance would not pay for bifocals. I got bifocals and it did not cost me a cent.

Leonardo was very professional and very knowledgeable as he explained every step of the way prior to any procedures and before the doctor came in for the examination. The doctor was also very knowledgeable and made some great recommendations for my daughter’s vision to get better. I was very pleased with our visit today.
Thank you to all the staff at South Florida Eye Care Center.
