Eyewear And Opticians in Elgin

“We had been using places like Costco, Sam’s Club, and America’s Best for quick eye exams for our kids, but after years of rushed visits and frustration — especially around contact lenses — I sought out a provider with more experience working with children. We found Fox Valley Ophthalmology and Eyes, and I’m so glad we did.

Dr. Pica immediately caught a significant diagnosis that had been missed for years, despite my child having annual exams. She helped us understand what had been overlooked and created a plan going forward.

We also wanted to try contacts, but other places told us my child was too young or handed us a short video and gave up when he couldn’t get them in. At Fox Valley, the difference was night and day. Sandy, a kind and patient staff member, spent a full hour working with him, encouraging him and giving him practice exercises. At our follow-up, we were scheduled with Sandy again, and she was just as supportive, patient, and encouraging as the first time. She made all the difference for my son.

Fox Valley might not have the rock-bottom prices of a Sam’s Club, but the expertise, patience, and compassion they showed made every visit worth it. Highly recommend — especially for families with kids.“

“I absolutely love Elgin Family Eye care. I have always been treated very well by all the staff and I have been seeing Dr. Kennedy for the past 10-15 years! He takes the time to listen to you and make sure to come up with the right options for you. I do not even live in Elgin anymore and I still see Dr. Kennedy!“

“Loved my glasses! Any the folks here are so helpful. Prices were more than fair. I would definitely come here again.“

“Great, generous and very well mannered. The front receptionists always have a smile on their face and give great and respectable service“

“The staff at this location is so helpful & kind. I’ve been bringing my kids here for a few years now & have never had a bad experience - from scheduling to check out. The ophthalmologist is very patient and personable - my kid is a new contact lens wearer & he really took his time to ensure she was confident with them.“
