I've been going to Marion Eye Care Center for many years and when Fairfield open up their branch I went there because they were closest to me and I have been very satisfied with Doctor Schneider and the cost of glasses was wonderful I was able to get a new pair of glasses without using my insurance because the sale they had going on was cheaper than if I used my insurance. I was very impressed that they did not just go ahead and use my insurance and charge me more but made me aware that if I didn't use my insurance I could get a better deal and save me money. I will definitely be a returning customer for as long as I live around here.

Went in because contact prescription wasn't doing it for me anymore. Had an eye exam for contacts and then left awaiting the arrival of the new contacts the Dr. prescribed. I then get a call, "why did you leave"? After explaining I was told I needed to come in and pay a $30 co-pay and a "fitting fee" for the contacts. I asked if both of my eye insurances had been presented the bill (one is primary and the second supplemental usually picks up the co-pay). I was told they don't submit to two separate insurers....what? I then said I didn't have contacts "fitted" and would never need them fitted since I wear them everyday for the past 20 years. I was told it's a fee that is always charged....what? Kinda like going to get my oil changed and being charged for a tire rotation....because it's just a fee they always charge. No thanks.
Came in early! Got in quick and the eye doctor was very efficient and made the experience better with casual conversation! The woman that assisted me with my glasses helped find me find a pair. While we did the paper work we conversed and she was very kind!
I would not recommend taking a child here who has never been before. The dr was not very patient or easy on a scared kid who had no idea what was going on. They didn't explain anything or let me help explain what was going on. Dr also acted like I was terrible for not bringing my child to an optometrist before 5. The front desk lady was super nice though so that's a plus
My experience with this branch has been a bit of a disappointment 😕, which I feel is deeply saddening to have to say. I've always had descent results and a somewhat positive outcome overall. The selection was very limited, assking questions seemed to bring a rise in defensive feedback. Conversation and smiling weren't on the menu that day. Not the brightest or friendliest of atmosphere. Hopefully next time will be better, I can't help but to think about how to change my own attitude to help bring about a more lightened sort of mood or overview.
