Optometrists near Pontiac

“I had to see Dr. Wilkinson due to my regular eye dr for glasses saw something she was unsure of what it was. The office is clean and bright and it runs very smoothly. Everyone was so kind. Dr. Wilkinson was assuring and professional. I am getting older...I need this kind of care. New client here now a regular!! Thank you for taking such great care of me!! Highly recommend“

“I had a wonderful experience at Claudio Eye Care. The optometrist is incredibly kind and makes you feel right at ease. The entire staff is always eager to help with things like verifying insurance and ordering contacts.“

“These docs have given me back my life! Dr feinberg and colleagues are so smart! Many branches of medicine have well-defined areas that they cover. What if nothing is working for you? Never did I imagine I would be one of those odd-ball people for who me nothing works. I suffered with near-daily migraines for 17 years, treated badly by some neurologists, barely able to function, becoming socially isolated bc I was literally so sick and miserable all the time.

Luckily Dr Feinberg and her group know every path, rock and molehill of this weird post-brain-injury territory that traditional medical providers seem to skirt. I was diagnosed with vertical heterophobia amongst other things, and Drs Ferrence and Feinberg explained that due to my response to the glasses, I likely had other issues going on too.

Well, they have a whole team of providers who specialize in these not-uncommon-yet-not-well-known problems. I was referred to an ENT specialist and found to have “third window syndrome” which was making my life living hell and also a constellation of symptoms that many physicians don’t realize go together or are treatable. Surgical correction of this turned me from a near-daily migraineur to someone who has had a mere 7 migraines since 2/1/2024. I was also found to have growth hormone deficiency from the same brain injury that gave me migraines and third window syndrome. My energy is finally coming back. I’m starting to get back to a wt more in line with my pre-injury weight. I can go outside without sunglasses now; it’s not fun, but I’m no longer prostrate on the ground or feeling like I’m going to vomit or having such profuse eye tearing that I effectively can’t see. My hyperacousis and photophobia are much better too. I’m able to work full time and I just returned from a 5 state solo road trip.

All these weird problems now make sense: why I hate unloading the dishwasher, why folding laundry and cleaning house are so difficult: due to the “third window” my body is unable to correctly interpret the stimuli coming into my eyes and ears which causes brain fog, affects my balance and makes a lot of what-should-be-simple, small daily tasks much more difficult and fatiguing. That weird sound in my head wasn’t the lights, it wasn’t tinnitus—it was literally hearing my blood swooshing on the inside of my body, somehow amplified due to this injury. Who would ever think that is possible to hear something like that? And even better than understanding, point me toward the tools and supplementary specialists I need so I don’t keep wasting my time with mediocre doctors who maybe are okay for basic problems, but don’t really have the intellect or framework to begin to design an approach to an “outlier”.

It’s truly mind-boggling how common these problems are, yet how few physicians are adequately trained to evaluate and treat these problems. So grateful for Dr Debbie, her team and her collaborators for the clinical work, education/explaining and research they do. I have a life again!!

Don’t hesitate to make an appt. The care you receive is worth the drive and the cost (for me, the appts covered by my insurance but not the glasses or lenses). If you have anxiety, hear weird creaking or throbbing or swooshing sounds in you head, chronic headaches that nothing seems to really help, have a history of hitting your head even if it didn’t seem like big of a deal at the time, but a few months later your quality of life deteriorated, have inexplicable balance problems or notice you just don’t feel like yourself since that basketball hit you on the head, these folks can help you. It is one of the more strenuous medical exams I have gone through and I’m often wiped out after the appt but wow! I have a life again. And much improved anxiety and independence.“

“I have purchased eyewear at See the Troy, MI location for many years now. I can proclaim with unwavering honesty that their customer service is topnotch. The two Sandies--one is the store manager, and the other one is a customer specialist--are consummate professionals' They always make me feel like a A-list customer. Both are patience and knowledgeable and have always exceed by expectations and help me keep my eyewear game tight. Last evening, I picked up my 30th pair of eyeglasses. Sandy had me try on three new pair that recently arrived. See Eyewear is the only shop I will ever purchase eyeglasses from. That's my commitment to their terrific customer service.“

“I will never go anywhere else! Dr. Kelly does an amazing job at administering the eye exam in a relaxed, comfortable way, and the staff on the floor is incredibly helpful when it comes to finding glasses. Jon has helped me and my husband both in finding frames that look great on us at an amazing price. Every person I have worked with at this location has been very friendly and helpful. I only have positive things to say about this place!“

“Dr. Bradley was great! I think this is the most thorough eye exam I’ve ever had. Staff are very welcoming. Lynne helped me find a great pair of frames and sunglasses. I like how many options there are to choose from.“

“This was hands down the best eye experience I’ve ever had. I haven’t been to the eye doctor in a few years and needed an exam and a new pair of glasses. I was also wanting to try contacts. I tried 10 years ago, but it didn’t go well, and I have just worn glasses since then.

I saw Dr. Kaji, and the whole experience was amazing from the second I walked in the door. Everyone was so kind and welcoming. I had an eye exam, picked out a new pair of glasses, and am currently wearing contacts (successfully) for the first time in my life.

I’d recommend this place to anyone!!!!“

“Very professional, took my insurance, great selection of covered frames, very stylish, and affordable to get my daughter the cute pair and reasonable enough that a designer frame isn't outta the question“

“I saw Dr Diskin today for eye irritation from drywall dust. I had blisters on inner rims of eyelids that I had removed myself. He had never heard of something like that so I did some investigating myself. I found pictures and a diagnosis. Meibomian gland dysfunction. I have posted a picture of them so Dr Diskin can see what they look like. It's a real thing. I just wanted him to know .“

“A year ago, I had Clear Lens Exchange surgery with Dr. Yaldo, and I could not be more pleased with the results. From my first consultation through post-op care, Dr. Yaldo and his team were professional, attentive, and reassuring. Dr. Yaldo took the time to explain each step of the procedure in clear, easy-to-understand terms, answered all of my questions thoughtfully, and ensured I felt comfortable at every visit.

The surgery itself went perfectly, just as Dr. Yaldo had described. The entire process was smooth, efficient, and comfortable, and I experienced immediate improvement in my vision. I can now read the bottom row of the eye chart and no longer need readers for up-close text. This is incredible! His expertise and precision are evident, and I truly feel like I am seeing the world more clearly because of his care.

I also want to highlight the support staff at Yaldo Eye Center, who were friendly, organized, and always ready to help. They made scheduling and follow-up appointments easy and kept everything running on time.

I highly recommend Dr. Mazin Yaldo for Clear Lens Exchange surgery. He combines exceptional surgical skill with genuine patient care, and I am incredibly grateful for the excellent experience and results.“

“Every step of my experience here was handled professionally, from the intake phone call to the exam to the eyewear fitting. I appreciated the ease of making a timely appointment as well as having my exam start at the time indicated. The technician and the doctor were thorough and caring, making sure to address all my concerns and provide detailed instructions for continued good eye health. Choosing frames was a breeze, with so many styles available and helpful staff who took both esthetics, comfort and my budget into consideration. I'm glad to have found a reliable place for my eye care!“

“Great care, attention to the details. Jennifer Shaba spends good amount of time to understand the root cause for dry eyes. I got significant relief to my dry eyes after the first visit and look forward to the future visits.“

“Had an excellent experience finding new glasses, Tracie was very helpful and courteous. From the time I selected my new glasses thru the payment process. Thank you TracieJordan for all your help.“

“I can’t say enough great things about this office. On two occasions, I needed to be seen urgently, and they went out of their way to expedite my appointment the same day. The doctor was incredibly attentive, explained everything clearly, and made me feel completely at ease during a stressful situation. Outstanding care from start to finish.“

“Words cannot describe how amazing the staff is here! Every single individual made it such a personal experience for me and my sister and I am so glad I have switched to SVS Vision!! Me and my family will definitely now continue to come here for the foreseeable future!“

“Super helpful staff and thorough exam uncovered a medical issue unrelated to vision during the opthomolgy exam“

“Everyone was friendly and helpful. The tech wbo did the preexam, exams was ftiendly and helpful. The optometrist took extra care to get the perscription right. The person who helped me pick out glasses was patient snd helpful. Overall a wonderful experience.“

“My optometrist is better than yours! lol Thank you Dr. Saly Elias! Thank you Lily! Thank you Heather! Thank you Zaid! Thank you Shannon! Thank you Lily! Yes, I said it twice! I feel taking care of your vision is on the top of the list for self-care. This practice is very thorough with their contact lenses and glasses exam. They take their time in screening for any vision problems or disease. They have a wide assortment of glasses for the entire family including sunglasses. I truly appreciate their sanitizing of glasses after a patient has tried on glasses before they put them back on the wall display. Thank you Natalie for helping me with my selections! I was able to select a couple pair this year with my annual exam. A little color and even non-color (clear pair). I chose a purple pair which is my favorite color. Why not wear a color that brings you joy? I love it! I also was able to have my lenses changed in an old pair of glasses with my updated prescription. Bonus!“

“I had a really nice exam, the ladies there was very nice and helpful. My appointment was on time ,I was able to go right in the exam room when I got there.“

“I cannot thank DejAne’ enough for the care and professionalism she showed me. Working in healthcare myself, I know how tough front-desk roles can be, especially over the phone. She remained kind, attentive, and incredibly knowledgeable throughout the entire process.

What could have been overwhelming was handled smoothly and clearly because she took the time to listen and explain everything. DejAne’ truly cares about patients, and it shows. She is outstanding at what she does.“

“We had a wonderful experience at this eye doctor’s office when I brought my five-year-old son in for his exam. From the moment we walked in, the entire staff made us feel genuinely welcome and at ease. Everyone was kind, patient, and took the time to explain each step in a way that was reassuring and easy to understand, especially important when it comes to your vision and a young child’s first experiences with eye care.
The staff did an excellent job helping my son feel comfortable and calm, turning what could have been a stressful appointment into a positive and even enjoyable one. The doctor was thorough, professional, and clearly cared about making sure we understood everything regarding my son’s vision and eye health.
It’s clear that this office truly prioritizes patient comfort, education, and trust. I’m very grateful for the care we received and would highly recommend this practice to anyone, especially parents looking for a welcoming, patient-focused environment.“

“Receptionist always greets me with a smile. Dr. Roy is fantastic and answers any questions you have. I wanted to try contacts and it was a smooth process with them allowing you to try them at the store. overall 10/10 experience.“
