I do not recommend this eye clinic. I’ve been wearing glasses and contacts my whole life and I’ve never had an eye appointment where I didn’t get a proper eye exam, prescription and a trial pair of contacts the same day. The doctor and his wife are incredibly nice people, but it’s been a circus getting my eyes checked at his Sam’s Club office and rechecked at his main office. The first time, he overcorrected my prescription and I couldn’t see anything up close and the lady up front said, we’ll order your contacts, it should take about a week. I go in for a recheck because I wanted to compare the differences and they were huge differences. The doctor said, he’ll just make a slight adjustment and it felt like he was just winging it, but he said, we will order your trial lenses and it shouldn’t take long. I get to the front desk and she said 3 weeks because they need to be made and manufactured overseas. I am out $160 for an eye exam and will likely have to go elsewhere for a proper eye exam.

I’ve been seeing Dr Adegite for 36 years now and he’s been the greatest, most caring, very professional, and trust worthy for your eye care needs!! I have and will continue to refer anyone I come in contact with that is in need of eye care!! I want to say Thank you Dr Adegite for all the years you have taken care of me and my children and also my grandchildren, extended family and friends!!! I really appreciate you more than you know!! Sincerely, Jennifer Lobato/Martin
An excellent place. Quick response friendly staff friendly doctor on Wednesdays it's at Sam's club outside entrance and then on Saturdays there on West main Walmart. I would definitely suggest him as a GOTO to do your EXAMINATION. They're fast they're friendly and economical.
I got basic frames, no line bifocal, transitional lens & exam. I lost them so, I contacted BCBS for replacements who said this office billed my ins $850.00. Now I don't have coverage to replace becuz they billed my ins for every penny they could get. Outrageous!
Dr. Adegite is awesome, best eye doctor in farmington; however, his staff, especially yvanna, who at any minute that you have a question or disagreement, she says to go somewhere else if you don't like it. I get it, that's how it works of course. I like that they have such good business that they can turn business down, or turn them away. When I asked to speak to the manager or owner, I was told they don't have oneI as a barber would never send a client somewhere else, it's bad for business, in a business sense...it's horrible for business. As a barber ill have no other choice but to tell everyone I know, everyone I cut hair on, and that's between 40 and 80 people a day....not to go there because of her...the terrible billing secretary that has no clue what she is doing.
