⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ My experience at CHA Eye Center has always been excellent. The front desk staff was efficient, Dr. Steven’s assistant was kind and attentive, and Dr. Steven Patalano was professional, knowledgeable, and took the time to explain my treatment clearly. He has been my eye doctor for several years, and I consistently receive outstanding care. Highly recommend.

This review is to advocate for my senior and English second language friends who have had eye glasses made at this facility. The glasses are INFERIOR QUALITY and the help is INFERIOR service. My friend purchased prescription glasses. The screws pop out of the ear pieces and rather than replace the glasses, they are told to GLUE them in. She only wore them one time. Come on! You can be better. How satisfied can you be with your service. Need glasses? Go somewhere else.

Dr Zhuoying Gu was absolutely amazing. Her and the team treated me like all that was important was me that day. I was scared to death! But I did what she told me which was the most important thing I could do for her...which was not to move..to be very still. I did that and my vision is coming back great...within two days it was better...and the kicker for me is that I had absolutely no pain at all ..ZERO which was a miracle to me. I have no pain and it's been five days now. I'm doing my drops four times a day with the cleanest hands possible, and wearing the guard faithfully. I trust Dr Gu for life now as I couldn't see well at all in my right eye. There was no arrogance in her just pure confidence. Get Dr Gu and be as still as a squirrel on a tree trunk as if a hawk was waiting for you on the branch. Be still and she will take care of you!
