I highly Recommend Lange Eye Care, Dr Lange is great and I especially have great faith regarding contact lens. I wear daily lens that are mono vision and he takes great care in achieving perfect balance.

Wife went to Lake Eye and all was fine with the exam and we ordered glasses there too. Though everyone was nice they never were able to get the glasses made correctly. After third try they did give us a refund.

Wife requires Crizal high impact progressives and they tried but could not get it right. Think their brand was similar but not the same.

Went to Ocala Eye near Laurel Manor and ordered the glasses and all has been fine, Even ordered sunglasses too.

Default Eye exam at Walmart

We had a very good experience with Dr. Orr at Walmart on 466 today. Very busy there, but she is great! We have no eye issues beyond needing updated prescriptions.

Another vote for Dr. Ram. He was recommended by our ophthalmologist in NJ. Have been seeing him for7 years and am very pleased.

Lake Eye - wife and I both had cataracts eliminated and got multi focal lenses. Were treated by Dr Scott Wehrly (very pleased)

I have been going to Ocala Eye, seeing Dr. Jodie Armstrong, for three years. I sought an ophthalmologist because I knew I was of an age when cataracts need to be monitored more closely. They did not urge surgery at all.


I had surgery last fall and highly recommend Dr. Armstrong and Ocala Eye.


It is golf cart accessible in the area just adjacent to Laurel Manor Rec center on 466.

I go Mid Florida eye specialists with Dr. Ray Maizel.

Very good eye care and an excellent staff. I am never kept waiting.

My wife and I have been going to Mid Florida Eye Center for several years now and never had a problem. Everybody there is great. Dr Pieschke is the eye dr.

Default Lake Eye

I have gone to Dr. Vocci a couple of times now and my experience is you always have to wait and only see the eye Dr for a couple of minutes. His assistant does the majority of the exam and he just comes in to give you a quick look. I am sure he is good but hate the wait and the feeling rushed. I am looking for a good deal on getting new glasses? I belong to Sam's so may try there.

Beware - went there and she put my contacts in wrong eyes and then screamed at me she needed to take my driver's license because I wasn't seeing well enough. Told her I would put my original lens back in (that I brought with me). Did and I was OK with her, but was a total waste of an exam.
