Stamford Eye Care
30 6th St,
Stamford, CT

Staff is cool, there selection of glasses are not that great

I have been visiting this place for about 2 years along with my mother and so far we have had a great experience. The staff is very helpful and patient. Both the ophthalmologists are competent, professional and courteous

I never EVER do reviews. This is actually my very first review on anything. That being said. This is the ABSOLUTE WORST medical professional office I have EVER been to. Front desk never bothered to even acknowledge me ..never mind receiving a welcoming greeting as a new patient. They were too busy talking amongst themselves....from the conversation it was personal and not work related. Simply handed me the paperwork to fill out and waved me off to the waiting room. The Tech (dressed in jeans) who brought be back to the testing area never bothered to warn me of the stair that was there that if you weren’t looking down as you were walking you would miss it, so I tripped. Doctor nor tech could be bothered with coming back out to the waiting area to accompany me to the operatory ...simply yelled my name from three rooms away and waited for me to play hide and seek and find him by myself. Which explained why the front desk is allowed to treat and receive patients as if they were a nuisance instead of a valued patient. Even upon calling the office, your call is answered and addressed as if you were a telemarketer bothering them. I was told my glasses would take a week. A week later I was advised it could be almost three weeks. For a simple prescription nothing fancy. The appearance of the office was at first a little taken back..it’s more like a hole in the wall than a medical professional office. I was expecting roaches or rats to jump out any minute. However the treatment of the entire staff made it make total sense. As the practice administrator of a medical office my staff would be terminated immediately for the treatment I received as a patient. Vision Consultants in Stamford accepts all the same insurance policies and treat their patients with care and concern through the entire visit and you can receive your eyeglasses within a timely manner.

Told my wife no coverage after I went one week before. Called today. They didnt care whatsoever. Actually told me my wife may not be covered without looking. I have a family plan from one of the largest Healthcare firm. The lies from this disgusting place is astounding. Go someplace that cares else. Your eyes are worth it.

My first experience with this Eye Care facility. The care and concern appeared professional. The company policy whereby it is up to the physician to randomly prescribe medication or provide a referral, which triggers additional costs to the patient, is THEFT! I was informed that an additional charge would apply if the doctor has to provide a referral or medication. I REQUIRED NEITHER. I informed the doctor that I have a current pair of glasses and I currently use eye drops. The doctor recommended a new but comparable pair of glasses and new eye drops, which is a different manufacture but basically the same eye drops. I did not need nor request new glasses or eye drops. At the exit of my visits, the front desk team informed me that I owe additional payment because the doctor recommended OVER THE COUNTER EYE DROPS! Which I have already, a different brand but the same thing and nothing I needed. The admin stated that's the policy! No room for consideration nor common sense. THIS IS A SCAM LOCATION masked as an Eye Care Center! Horrible policy to generate additional payment.

I had a very bad experience here. Before my appointment, I was told I would be charged a certain amount for my eye exam. After I received the exam, the store proceeded to charge me almost 3 times that amount (instead of $60, I was charged $160) and the employees refused (and were unable) to explain why their prior estimate was wrong or why I was being charged so much more. They also refused to adjust and honor their prior price. Very disappointing and unprofessional and I will not be going back.

Everyone in this office has a very pleasant attitude. The front office staff are very helpful even when there are a few minor glitches. The back of the house girls are very nice and accommodating. The doctor is very informative, and answers all of your questions. Explains all of the tests he does and what he is looking for. I have had a very good experience with this office.

I did not have a good experience at this eye care. I asked one of the receptionists if I could speak with the doctor again, but with someone to help me translate into Spanish, because my child is only 6 years old and I wanted to understand better how to manage the situation with his glasses. The staff was not very helpful and I felt they did not take the time to explain things clearly. As a parent, this was very frustrating.

Justin Coreano is careful and conscientious. He took the time to see that my glasses fit well and I was satisfied. The entire experience is noteworthy. Dr Wasserman is a gifted Opthamoligist who demonstrates extraordinary concern for his patients eye care

I have been going to this eye care center for 20 plus years and it's been great 👍🏼 I think 20 plus years sums it up a how good they are highly recommend …

Dr. Kalustian is the best! Don’t know where all these bad reviews come from but I been seeing him for over 10 years and I am happy with him. Humble and transparent. The new office staff is not the best but life changes. Yes I had to go to a specialist but only once.

I am leaving this review for any future patients that wish to see this place. While it may seem that the staff is nice, once you disagree with the staff or especially the doctor they will start to push you aside. For example now I cannot make appointments, they ask that I call every day to see if a cancellation is available and then the doctor can see me. The reasoning because I have missed a few appointments. But this is all connected because I disagreed with the doctor on a prognosis which lead to him flagging me as a patient. If you want to avoid a situation like mine I would advise you find another doctor that actually listens to their patients instead informing and pushing them aside.
