Very surprised to see no reviews within the last two years. I’ve been taking my kids here for over a year now and I can’t recommend this vision center more. The optometrist couldn’t have been any nicer or more patient and his staff follow suite. They’re extremely knowledgeable and only have your best interest in mind. As someone who has wore glasses/ contacts for 25+ years and has worked in hospitality for 15+ years they make an experience that some may see as awkward or annoying and make it as pleasant and comfortable as possible. A lot of business miss the mark on hospitality these days so it’s nice to know that some like the vision center here in Evanston are still doing it the right way.

Was able to get an appt for an eye exam within 24 hrs of request. Staff could not have been more helpful and pleasant. And Dr. Allenstein was wonderful...enthusiastic about his job, communicated very clearly, professional, and easy to work with. Answered all my questions. This will be my new Optical Center from now on. A+

6/7/2022 They got contacts prescriptions wrong on one of the eyes. This could be from the assistants are not optical dept specific. Went back to Professional Eye Care and 6 months supply of DialyAqua comfort Turiq were cheaper than Sam’s. Jan. 2022 Our experience at this location was superb. The entire staff was very friendly and helpful. Vee 💗 was so knowledgeable and so kind to help us find the best solutions for both of my daughters (glasses and contacts). Dr. Allenstein was awesome. Note that for ophthalmologist you will still need to see a specialist but for prescription, general eye health, school forms glasses and contacts, this is a convenient option.
