Everything about Eye Care West is outstanding. The doctors and staff are professional, friendly and helpful. They never rush and will gladly take the time to answer all your questions. The frame selection is also outstanding. Whenever anyone comments on my glasses, I happily share my feelings about Eye Care West.

I’d highly suggest this place to anyone in need of eye care. They’ve been a wonderful family resource for years. They noticed my youngest son has exotropia, and because they identified it, they helped us find the right support for him. When my wife developed cataracts, they directed her to an excellent doctor for cataract removal and lens replacement, and now she doesn’t need glasses at all. I’m so impressed with everyone’s professionalism and helpfulness. Dr. Schmidt and Dr. Lichtenburg are truly amazing. They’re easy to talk to and explain everything clearly, and you can really see how much they care about their patients. Their optical department is also fantastic. I chatted with Crystal (she’s incredibly knowledgeable and professional), and I told her I wanted a new look. She found me some new frames and lenses that made me look both dapper and trendy. Thanks for everything, you guys are amazing!!! Randy Kaup
I have a lot of anxiety when it comes to anything involving my eyes, but the entire staff was incredibly gentle, patient, and reassuring. They took the time to make me feel comfortable, and their state-of-the-art equipment gave me confidence that I was receiving the best care possible. They turned what I expected to be a stressful experience into a very positive one. I highly recommend them to anyone—especially if you're nervous about eye exams or procedures!
I absolutely love Eye Care West!! Dr Schmidt is the perfect “eye doctor package”- Knowledgeable, kind, takes time to explain (and sometimes for me, re-explain), and so easy to talk with. I can say the very same thing for each of the technicians I have ever worked with over the five + years I have been a patient there. I would name each of them, but then I’d forget someone. They all work well together as a team, you can tell that they enjoy and support each other. I also love that I can sit in the waiting area and have a cup of coffee, but I only get a couple sips before they call me back ha ha. Always very prompt! Whenever I have chosen new frames, I love the help I get as well! 10 stars for Eye Care West!!!!!!!!!!
I had a great experience. My exam started very soon after I checked in. The y oung lady who started my exam was so pleasant an upbeat the experience was enjoyable. Dr. Richert is always so thorough and I feel assured when the exam is over. As a Mono-ocular person this is very important to me. She has my complete trust.
