The lovely Dr was absolutely awesome! The staff was very professional! Much better than the vision spot at the target in Leominster! I would definitely drive an hour plus to see them again!

The technician was super nice and greeted me and got started right away. All the checks and tests were going great. However when we got to the virtual doctor portion of the eye exam there were multiple technical issues with the TV not working and then the iPad camera not working. That kind of brings down the whole experience. I live an hour away so decided to shop a bit while waiting to see if issues could be fixed. They eventually were able to resolve the issue and I was able to finish my exam. If not for the tech issues rating would be higher.

Technician was wonderful. The equipment didn’t function as expected. I assumed I would get a “thorough” exam but it fell short of that. I was told to follow-up with an Optometrist?

Is a contact lens exam different than an eye exam?
A normal, comprehensive eye exam will allow your optometrist to determine if your eyes are healthy enough to wear contact lenses.

There is an additional fee for a contact lens fitting and evaluation for all contact lens patients (both new and established patients).
