These people are great, each and every one of the staff here are always welcoming and warm toward me. They keep it immaculately clean in here and I love the wide variety of frames to choose from even with county insurance you can be sure they have unique styles of frames to choose from. I consider this eye shop, to be a hidden gem of the Midway located inside the Spruce Tree Building on Snelling and University. Thank you Blake and staff for treating me well and you have yet to disappoint. I recommend this business whenever the question arises or when I sense someone looking for a recommendation. You will want to most likely enter through the doors across from the church on the back side of the building the front doors are sometimes locked.

I already really liked our new eye doctor before today. I absolutely love our new eye doctor. She is the most thorough eye doctor that I have ever had. Yesterday I called in because the left lens of my glasses was really blurry and I was having a hard time seeing properly. She had me come in, did a new eye exam, checked the pressure in my eyes and checked my field of vision. I have high pressure in my left eye. Then she mentioned to the lady who was doing the field of vision test that it might be high blood pressure and I told her I have high blood pressure off and on. So then she checked my blood pressure and it was spiked up to 167/101 and had me to go the emergency room and then come back today so she could check the pressure in my left eye again. My blood pressure has been hanging around 140/80s today. Sure enough with my blood pressure down from yesterday I am seeing better through my glasses. However I have high pressure in my left eye. So she prescribed me some eye drops to put in my left eye before bed and has me coming back on Friday to check the pressure in my left eye to see if it has lowered. The eye drops are specialized in lowering eye pressure. Her name is Dr. Ta; and I am really glad that I found her eye clinic. After such an amazing level of care and thoroughness I cannot see any other eye doctor.
I CAN SEE CLEARLY NOW! Firstly, the staff are extremely professional and kind. Secondly, the exam was easy and painless (no irritating eye drops). Thirdly, the selection of glasses to choose from is nearly endless! Overall this was an excellent experience for me and I will be using Modern Eyewear in Spruce Tree for all my vision needs. 5 stars!
The staffs are so friendly, well-trained and they have an excellent ophthalmologist. The best service I ever had. My insurance had a lot of issues but they waited the whole process patiently and helped. They even gave me big discount, yayyy. Thank you all!
This Place is wonderful! I see a few bad reviews have been posted and I can't imagine why. Blake and everyone there is amazing. They take their time with you, never a rush! These people really care about their patients. They take very good care of me and my family. They always treat people with respect and courtesy and will fix any issues just like that! they have so many styles and very good prices. I will keep coming back there for years to come!!!!
