Just went for my first appointment yesterday - I just moved here from New Hampshire and I loved my eye doctor but just too far. This place was clean, the front desk girls were very nice, smiley and just kind. The doctor I saw was great. He was so friendly and understanding. My contacts had changed a little and he was so patient when I was trying to see what worked best. 10/10 would recommend.

I would give this place 0 stars if I could. My husband and I were out of state on vacation in Florida when he accidentally lost his glasses. Unfortunately, he literally cannot see without them, so this immediately became a very stressful situation. We found an eye doctor in Florida that was able to make same-day glasses, but they needed his prescription from Modern Eye in Rhode Island. We called Modern Eye, explained the entire situation, and asked if they could please provide the prescription they had on file. The staff showed absolutely no interest in helping and told us they could not provide it because it was over two years old. While I understand policies exist, the complete lack of empathy, effort, or even basic courtesy was shocking; especially considering we were out of state and dealing with an urgent situation. To make a long story short, the staff were rude, dismissive, and completely unhelpful. There was no attempt to offer alternatives, guidance, or any kind of understanding. They were zero help during a stressful situation when a little compassion would have gone a long way. Based on this experience, I would not recommend this office. They don’t even deserve the 1 star.

I was way over do for a eye exam and modern eyes made the trip worth it. Came in for my appointment and everything was super smooth and great selection of glasses. Highly recommend.

I’ve been seeing Nicole at Modern Eyes for IPL treatments to help reduce acne scarring and improve my overall complexion. While the Lumenis OptiLight is designed to treat dry eye, I’ve been so pleased with the aesthetic benefits it provides. Nicole is professional, knowledgeable, and makes each session feel easy and comfortable. Dr. McMahon and Dr. Gianfrancesco are both incredibly kind, thorough, and deeply skilled at what they do. The office is clean, modern, and welcoming—truly a place where you feel well cared for. My dad has dealt with a number of eye issues over the past year and a half, and Dr. McMahon has consistently gone above and beyond, answering all of his questions with patience and compassion. And when it’s time for my young children to have their first eye exams, this is the only place I’ll call. Modern Eyes delivers exceptional care for every stage of life, and I can’t recommend them highly enough.

To "V" your comment is ridiculous! Yes glasses are expensive especially when you add things to your lenses. But when you have over $400,000 of equipment, 8 or 9,000 a month rent , $200,000 to $300,000 payroll\yr, $2,000 to $3,000 a month for liability insurance, and double at malpractice insurance, and of course you want to have lights and air conditioning that's always nice. Or you can get your glasses online send the back four or five times because they don't fit right.
