Thanks so much for the feedback on Dr. Zeini. Much appreciated since I have an appointment scheduled with him on Wednesday morning.

First of all, this isn't about cost. As far as I'm concerned, cost isn't a factor when eyesight is concerned. And this isn't really criticism of either Ocala Eye or Mid Florida Eye, because they are big institutions and have established procedures which must be followed. But I did need immediate attention to a eye problem I was having which has been causing a lot of discomfort and inflammation.
I was having a lot of difficulty booking an immediate appointment with Ocala Eye or Mid Florida Eye, since I was not an established patient. Although I had a full eye exam by an Opthamologist two months ago, both places insisted I would need a full eye exam at a cost of $245 before they could even look at my current problem. The price wasn't the problem, it's just that both places said a full eye exam couldn't be quickly scheduled. And they said an appointment for the corrective procedure would have to be booked after my initial visit at an additional cost.
I was able to quickly book an appointment with Dr. Zeini, after I explained the situation to his office staff. I was very impressed with the staff, the promptness, and the whole handling of the problem I was having. Dr. Z performed the corrective procedure and all is well. It wasn't surgery, but they had to put numbing drops in my eyes to prevent pain, and I was apprehensive. Dr. Z was terrific. The fee was $120 for exam and procedure.
Dr. Zeini has offices in Southern Trace Plaza and in Spanish Springs. I highly recommend him.
