I went to this practice a few times out of convenience - her office was around the corner from my house - each time was a bad experience. I found Dr. Poran to be quite cagey. She had a really hard time getting the correct prescription for me and was visibly annoyed at me when I told her the setting was worse than before. So much so I found myself apologizing! She rushed me out with the wrong prescription. On another visit she scanned my eyes and I raised an issue I remembered a previous doctor had flagged. When I told her about it her response was that she had also observed it. What struck me was if I didn’t bring it up, she wouldn’t have either. Lastly, she never had saved my files, so every time I came in she had no record of me.

My husband and I have different eye issues. First, Dr. Poran saved me from a horrific case of conjunctivitis. Second, throughout Covid, once she re-opened, she and her husband maintained a safe atmosphere for all clients to enter her office safely. Third, she is a lovely, kind and caring doctor who has helped to maintain our Brooklyn neighborhood and keep it rock n’ rolling. We need people like her in Carroll Gardens/cobble hill. 5 stars!
I’ve been going here for at least 10 years and am very happy. Dr. Poran diagnosed an eye condition that all my earlier doctors had missed. I was fitted with the correct lenses and it helped so much. Very accommodating and friendly too.
Dr. Amy Poran and her staff are extremely professional and affable. She's been my optometrist for the past two years and I'm not switching to anyone else! Her exams are thorough and carefully explains every procedure. I cannot recommend this place enough.
Dr Amy Poran and Tamara at Oculus 20/20 are the best. I am so impressed with Dr Poran and her dedication to spending the time to evaluate correctly and I appreciate finally finding someone who really cares! As a photographer my eyes are my livelihood and I wouldn't trust anyone else to continue to examine me and evaluate my prescription. I went to her this past year for a second opinion since I wasn't happy with my first set of contacts at another place and the service and evaluation exceeded my expectations, and I left seeing so much clearer and with the added suggestion and many free trials of an expensive type of contact that works for my dry eye issue, that are worth every penny, am very grateful for the support and true professionalism at Oculus 20/20. Dont hesitate, in fact if you care about proper evaluation and service - this is where you need to go.
