Eyewear And Opticians in Ocala

“AMAZING!! I wanted to use a very specific pediatric vision benefit with my insurance. I am so impressed and grateful for ROMA, who handles the insurance here. This company has hired someone with outstanding work ethic, compassion to help, forward thinking, and an understanding of true customer service. Someone as invaluable as her deserves a raise. Thank you Roma!“

“Everyone from the front office ladies, technicians and Dr. Ritz were awesome! I always get nervous bringing my kids to appointments and they reassured me that they did great and weren’t a problem. I love how family friendly they are and how fast they were able to get me in on a canceled appointment! Thank you Ritz team“

“After submitting an online request for an appointment that was not acknowledged, I called the office and was able to speak with someone to schedule my appointment. The young man that took my information was very professional and pleasant. I was able to schedule an appointment for the following day. Upon arrival, I was greeted and the intake process began; it was painless and expeditious. The assistant/Tech that I had was absolutely wonderful; she communicated, was very courteous, accommodating and professional.
“Dr. GiGi” was also top notch. She explained everything, gave me a thorough eye exam and gave me a chance to ask questions.
I did however have two “negative” things occur- I was quoted more than $1,000 for one pair of non-designer frames with the necessary prescription lenses! I was given my script but it was definitely missing measurements-which isn’t really helpful.
(Especially as a self pay patient).“

“Let's start by quoting Johnny Nash - "I can see clearly now". That's right... If you are looking for a new eye care provider, the Eye Care Center of Ocala is the place. Upon your arrival Courtney or one of the other super friendly receptionists will great you with a great smile ?. Then you'll be escorted to an exam room by an expert technician like Alex. A thorough eye exam and test will be conducted. A highly qualified Doctor like Dr. Castello will look at your eyes ? and correct any vision defects, as needed. After the exam, you be placed in the very capable hands of Penny or Mitch to select your new frames, lenses or contact lenses. You will never look better in the hot ? new frames that you select. NOW that you took the time to read this review. Give them a call today and schedule your eye exam. Be sure to tell them Ray sent you...?“

“The absolute BEST! Everyone here is so kind, friendly, and professional. They take the time to talk to you and explain everything. I got a great exam and contacts. The day of my exam happened to be my birthday. The optometrist actually pulled out a guitar and they whole office serenaded me. They're so wonderful and treat you like an old friend. I know I'll continue to use Marion Oaks Optical for many years to come.“

“Dr. Crowley is an excellent doctor. Very skilled and knowledgeable.. Would definitely recommend.“

“Service was great, selection was great, exam was quick & easy.... Got hit in the face with a metal pole the day I got my glasses and left a huge scratch in it, took them back & they ordered a replacement lens immediately at no cost...“

“Very friendly, funny and engaging staff; I never feel rushed or ignored. Dr. Nadine is engaging, informative and trustworthy. Actually look forward to appointments as they are generally the highlight of my day. God Bless ? ? ❤️“

“The best experience for me was Kim. She was incredibly knowledgeable and went beyond that to find out about my wants and needs. She offered me options that fit and worked beautifully
I picked up my glasses today, all 3 pairs and luckily Kim was there. For the first time in 4 years none of my glasses required any adjustments. All my glasses fit perfectly. Thank you Kim and Americas Best“

“I have to stand corrected after we seen the Doctor today she was so nice an she found the main problem with my Downs syndrome sons eye that no other Doctor had ever mentioned serious problem that can grow worse with age so I judged to soon Thank you.“

“Been here on 3 separate occasions for myself and my young son and Victoria is a blessing to work with! She is very knowledgeable, polite, she is very professional. I prefer to come when she is working just so I know I will get excellent customer service. She definitely is a rock star employee at this location! We hope she never leaves.

Updated Nov. 2025 to add: my whole family has now been to this location dozens of times. Victoria still works at this location and even though my son has a very high prescription, somehow she always manages to find the perfect frames for him. We also adore Dr. Chai, she takes her time and listens and make sure that she gets your prescription right. The two of them are the reason that we have remained customers of this exact location for so many years“
