Glen Oaks Family Vision

Having run out of contacts and in need of an eye exam, I found Glen Oaks Family vision through my Oxford health provider search. Historically, I had visited the likes of Cohen Optical and other small vision businesses, and each time I was never really satisfied. However, after visiting Glen Oaks Family vision and after having a thorough examination by Dr. Levine, I was extremely satisfied and happy with the visit and service. Unlike most other optometrist, Dr. Levine’s seems to genuinely care. She took her time conducting a thorough exam. She used new technology as well as old school methods (which I like!) to recommend for contacts and she also advised on eye care and maintenance. I dd not feel rushed either and their staff was very polite and courteous. I would strong recommend Glen Oaks family vision to anyone whom values top notch eye care and great service.

Good Prices | Courteous Help
I visited Glen Oaks Family Vision on the recommendation of a friend. I am glad I did. I was treated with courtesy and I got a good deal on a new pair of glasses and replacement lenses for an old pair. I was satisfied.
One thing in particular stands out — the replacement lenses. In large chain such as Pearl Vision or Lenscrafters, they price the lenses so high it doesn’t pay to replace. They want you to buy new glasses. You are stuck with a drawer of old glasses.
Not so here. They replaced my lenses in one of my favorite frames (with Cryzal lenses) for $ 250 dollars out of pocket. I saved $ 250 by using my old frames.
Likewise, they will cheerful insert lenses on frames you buy online or on ebay.
I also got a pair of new rimless glasses. Since they were rimless, it took about 10 days.
I am satisfied. Will repeat.

I have been to this place couple of times to find out if they accept my insurance. they staff esp. the girls that are by the reception area are amazing, they are so helpful and take time out to call my insurance to find out exactly the kind of plan I was in. Only if they approved me I wouldve totally bought my glasses from here.

My husband and I have been going to Dr. Poley for over 5 years now. What keeps us coming back is the exceptional service and care with which you are treated. This is becoming increasing rare in the medical field. Dr. Poley is always very thorough, knowledgable and quick, with the latest styles and samples. His office staff are always friendly and helpful as well. Anyone that tries Glen Oaks will be hooked!

My insurance and I paid them a lot of money for a thorough eye exam and a pair of glasses. When I came back to get my prescription and also a measure of my PD, which I paid for when I had a through eye exam and also purchased a pair of glasses from them, they rudely refused (More specifically, Dr. Poley). They had it on file (because I paid for it, it’s not like they took it for their amusement) but wanted an extra $ 25 to tell me a number like 54 mm. I understand if they charge if they didn’t have it on file and were not paid for it but they are just money hungry. Not to mention it is American law to have a right to your medical records. Opticians are not required to give out PD as a part of a regular eye exam in some states however they do have to if it is already on your paid medical record. I wasn’t asking for anything for free, just access to my exam.
So people, beware — do not go to this place if you want access to your medical records. They WILL withhold it for money
Edit: Dr. Poley responded to my review, and even though he claims it is not a part of my medical records, it’s a record he had on file that he refused to release to me. I paid for the examination and the glasses, I was not asking for a free service. It’s like a tailor refusing to tell you your waist size. It would require no extra work but simply using your voice to reveal a number that was already on file. Either way, if any of you ever have this issue, you can buy a PD ruler/​measurer on Amazon or eBay. Also, Dr. Poley, my insurance found it strange you wouldn’t tell me my PD and actually retrieved it from your office for free for me.
Response to Dr. Poley: You took my PD when I purchased my glasses and exam. Then, you weren’t willing to tell me the simple two numbers. Thats absurd. End of story.

This is my second visit to the Glen Oaks Family Vision to get an eye exam and new glasses.
The optometrist (Vladimir Poley O.D.) is very nice. His office staff are very friendly and helpful. The eye exam is routine but thorough and the doctor will answer all of your questions.
The appointments are kept within schedule and the waiting time is short. They also take walk-​ins (just in case you have pinkeye and need a see doctor).
I would recommend this optometrist if you live in the area and looking for an eye doctor.
