Med Eye Optical

The office is located in a spectacular place. All the staff of the medical office is very professional The Dr is very professional, explains everything related to the medical problem. I has satisfied by the attention received. A clean medical center, access to parking They are very satisfied with the service and I recommend everyone who needs primary care.

“Warning”: Extremely Poor Surgical Experience I do not recommend MED Eye Associates or Dr. Harish Raja in Miami, Florida for cataract surgery. Before surgery, I followed MED Eye’s protocol and asked multiple staff members—including the surgical coordinator—which lens manufacturer Dr. Raja uses. No one knew, so I asked them to confirm directly with him. They later told me Bausch & Lomb, and I clearly stated that I did not want any lens that sacrificed distance vision. I was perfectly fine using reading glasses for close up. Despite this, on the day of surgery—after waiting two hours in pre op at the Center for Eye Surgery—I learned afterward that Dr. Raja implanted a RayOne EMV Toric lens, a product only recently FDA approved. Even worse, he modified the lens to induce myopia for close up vision, the exact opposite of my instructions. This caused a major loss of distance vision. My research later showed written guidance warning against inducing myopia with the RayOne EMV lens because it reduces distance capability. Due to this mistake, Dr. Raja had to perform a second, lengthy, painful surgery to replace the lens with the Bausch & Lomb lens I originally requested. During that procedure, my iris was severely damaged. I now require a specialist for iris repair, and months later I am still healing and unable to proceed with the repair. I am also out approximately $5,000 in personal expenses, plus the insurance claim. I have never experienced such poor communication, disregard for patient instructions, and overall incompetence.

The only reason i am giving this place a 1 star is because it wouldn't let me do a review without it. I had called weeks prior to my appointment to make my daughter an eye appointment, I asked if they took her insurance and gave them all my information they said yes. the day of the appointment as my husband is on his way to take my daughter they call me and tell me they made a mistake and they actually do not take her insurance, my daughter had already taken the morning off from school and this is something they could've called me the day prior or before the day of the appointment when we were already on our way. I do not recommend this place at all.

WORST PLACE EVER, BEWARE! 50 people scheduled for same time, 20 chairs lined up, all other standing room only, until they move you from room to room, same setup, do not go here. Unprofessional.

This review is on my dad's behalf. My dad was operated by Dr Raja who did a great job on his tiny eyes that left him with almost no swelling. His experience was wonderful and it was thanks to miss Suyapa who took care of him and guided him throughout the whole process. She's the best.
