Eye Care of La Jolla A Surgical-Medical Group

I visited the clinic multiple times. I see Dr. Matthew R Kirk based on the recommendations. This doctor is awesome, he is thorough, takes his time, provides more than one option and is very knowledgeable. I highly recommend him. The wait time at the practice was not bad at all, even though I was the one to arrive later than my appointment. If you are in need of an Ophthalmologist, this is the doctor to go to.

This practice is a big disappointment. Dr. Michelson is my opthamologist and Robert is my optician. In 2009, my Rx was incorrect leading to the creation of incorrect lenses. The expensive high priced Zeiss lenses were incorrectly manufactured, so between Eye Care of La Jolla and Zeiss, my $ 700 lenses took many weeks to arrive correctly. Now, it’s 2011 and the same errors occurred again. Incorrect eye test, led to incorrect Rx, which led to incorrect lenses being made. Then, to add insult to injury, Zeiss flubs the manufacturing of the lens AGAIN. The lenses of course, have be redone AGAIN due to the incorrect prescription.
This year, I began the process in early July and finally received my glasses this week (October). Lenses were $ 1000 for my regular glasses (just the lens, no frames). Lenses for my sunglasses were $ 599. (again I re-​used my old frames). These high prices combined with this miserable delivery of service, makes we want to run in the opposite direction. NEVER AGAIN.
By the way, I asked for an adjustment to make amends for my 8 trips and 3+ months of hassles. Dr. Michelson offered me $ 25 off my $ 1300 bill. Nice eh?
