My prescription has been off l since my first visit here in May of 2024. I have never had issues with glasses or contacts in the past at any eye doctor I have been to. It’s now October of 2024 and I’ve been seen 3 times since May, each time they have given me a new prescription. I’m having vertigo symptoms every day with my new contacts and have to lay down or get tired more than usual. I’ve put up with these symptoms because I have a busy life and I feel like I can’t go somewhere else without paying out of pocket so I am stuck with the eye doctor that can’t figure out my prescription. I have not had any medical changes since my last eye visit before being seen at Sanford Downtown eye clinic, and I’m just stumped because I have never had these kinds of issues before.

These people care a lot and helped me in a great time of need. They didn't have to do what they did, but she helped me and saved the day. These folks are wonderful 😊.
