Compton Eye Associates

I’ve often had trouble with contacts fitting correctly and no optometrist has really been able to help me out. Dr Compton was thorough and when I mentioned some issues I’ve had in the past was able to identify why I had discomfort. I’ve been to a lot of eye doctors, multiple ones in NYC, and he is the best so far.

An excellent eye experience. Loved them, love my glasses.
In truly spectacular news: they do a glaucoma test that doesn’t involve dilation (in the grand tradition of glaucoma tests, it does cost extra), which is a huge plus for me. Also you get to see a cool picture of the inside of your eye.

I am so excited about this place! I love walking a few blocks and getting amazing eye care. Dr. Compton and his staff are so friendly and professional. I cannot say good enough things about the staff.
The Dr., Dr. Compton spent so much time explaining everything to me and offering me help on not just my eyes but my insurance as well. Even before I had an appointment he helped me understand my insurance! I have never had such a helpful experience at an eye doctor. I am so grateful.
Also, I have never liked frames that I have found at an eye doctor so I assumed I wouldn’t find any here. I WAS WRONG!!! I was so wrong! They have great frames and they are affordable! I was so excited I snatched them up really quick!
Compton Eye Associates is a great addition to the neighborhood!

I walked in today to see if they took my insurance (NYSHIP). I’m relatively new to it, and it’s really confusing at times to know who is covered and who isn’t. I went in, and she took down my information and said she would call to double check for me. She even asked what my co-​pay was and what was covered on my specific plan. After gathering that information, they said that the doctor could actually squeeze me in if I wanted to see him today. Then, EVERYONE (Dr. Compton, included) worked really hard to make sure I was paying as little out of pocket as humanly possible because I needed contacts and new glasses.
They were absolutely amazing. I swear she ran the numbers like ten, twenty times to ensure I was getting the best possible deal (my insurance doesn’t cover contact lense fittings). Everyone was constantly nice, and they went out of their way to accomadate me. I’m leaving town Tuesday (December 22), and I asked if there was any chance that I could get my glasses by then. I was willing to pay any rushing fees it would take. They said they would get it out to the company they had to go through for my insurance, and they would make sure it would be back in time for me to have it before I leave.
Honestly, I am SO impressed by them. I messaged my roommate who needed to get his glasses fixed for a while now, and he dropped them by on his way home. They told them they would fix it for free even though he wasn’t a previous patient and didn’t buy the glasses there.
On top of the WONDERFUL staff, the facility itself is extremely clean. There’s a lot of white, which shows dust and dirt easily, and I couldn’t see a single thing. I grew up with a dad whose job it is to walk through hospitals and spot every ounce of dirt, so I have a habit of doing the same thing when I walk into medical type facilities. There’s was immaculate.
I plan on moving from the neighborhood within the next year, but I’ll probably travel all the way back up here just to see Dr. Compton again. My experience was that good.

Highly recommend. I have already recommended everyone in my family to go see him and they love him. The experience is great! Very much in depth. He really takes his time with you and explains all your results. I was not aware of how much he was able to inform me of my health just thru my eyes. He really took his time to educate me. I recommend you do all the exams he has to offer.

Had great experience. The staff was extremely nice. Dr. Compton was very knowledgable about my condition. Would recommend this office to anyone and everyone !

Highly recommend. Honestly, I live upstairs and I pass by Compton everyday I figured it would be very expensive because it’s so big and looks so nice inside but he was very reasonably priced.
I just walked in to see if I could schedule an exam and he saw me immediately. Nice staff, very clean, sanitized everything in front of me (I’m o.c.d I notice these things) & answered all my questions and made me want to be more involved in my vision because there’s a lot of things I didn’t realize until today as far as annual visits.

Ok so background: I’m blind as a bat. Literally can’t go out without contacts.
I was surprised to get an appointment on a Sunday– so accommodating! But seriously it was such an awesome experience.
So it’s nestled across he street from the park next to tonnies cupcakes. I walk in was greeted by the doctor and staff. Got there about 15 mins early because I needed to fill out paperwork and they even take a pic of you for your file (definitely looked like I rolled out of bed).
So I do all the necessary paperwork and the girl told me about the new option to check your eyes instead of dialatipn: costs 39.00 BUT SO WORTH IT. Best decision I’ve made in my life because you don’t walk out blinded like a vampire.
Then did he usual checks of vision and then the doctor came in for my assessment and to go over things. The great thing was that he was very attentive to family history and knowledgable about it all. The better part was that he actually educates you without the medical jargon and really breaks down your eye to you.
After a few questions we were able to go through what I needed — contacts obviously– and next steps.
The doctor is super thorough and really nice. The place is new and clean and the eyeglass selection is actually pretty nice from what I saw. And I left with trial pairs so I was happy.
If you need your eyes checked don’t hesitate to come here!

Decided to stop by after seeing this office open recently in my neighborhood. I was able to call the night before to book a morning appointment. Loved the assistance from all of the staff. New, clean and spacious office. Completed my eye exams and placed an order for contacts with zero issues. Will definitely return for all of my eye needs.

The doctor, his medical assistant, the receptionists– everyone– were all nice, professional, helpful. The office is a lovely modern place with lots of natural light in the waiting area. I highly recommend this business!

Great people not there to just take your money. Dr compton give you great advice and is very helpful in giving you the right prescription great place highly recommend coming here for your eye exam.

You know when a place’s reviews are all 5-​star and you wonder, «did they pay off their customers?» «Is something wrong with the Unilocal filter?» Rest assured, the five star reviews for this optometrist are warranted.
Came here because I was due for an eye exam as well as some new glasses. My insurance covered me for one pair, and I also bought another pair of designer frames separately on Amazon. As soon as I walked in, it almost felt like I was on 5^th Avenue or something. The place just exudes style and professionalism. I was graciously greeted by the staff in the front. They accept various insurances, and there’s a wide variety of frames that are covered. I then met Dr. Compton whom gave me my eye exam, and was very knowledgable and helpful throughout the process. When it came time to purchase frames, I didn’t feel pressured to pay for add-​ons like Crizal, etc… Unlike other optical places I’ve been to here in Inwood, I felt exceedingly comfortable at this place.
On top of everything, they put lenses into the frames I bought outside their shop, and let me use their $ 75 for $ 100 Unilocal deal to pay for them. Just overall, a wonderful experience where you don’t feel pressured or like you’re gonna get ripped off. I definitely recommend them, and they now have a lifelong customer in me.

Took my mom to Dr. Compton and had a great experience. The staff was friendly and made us feel very welcomed. Dr. Compton was very informative and we were very happy with the results. Will definitely return!

From the moment I walked into this beautiful, spacious office, I was impressed. The front desk greeted me with a warm smile and it was as though I had been coming to this office for years. The entire staff makes you feel right at home, which is something I greatly value and look for. I was seen promptly — as scheduled, which tends to be a rarity in most medical offices (I would give 5++ stars if I could!)
Dr. Compton was excellent, professional, knowledgeable, efficient and charismatic. He had to perform some specialized testing and I was shocked when it was done in office as opposed to being referred out! This office is well equipped and saved me a lot of time. Huge thank you for that!
As a side note, I had to run before I was able to finalize my purchase on the frames, however, I was pleasantly surprised by the variety of frames and brands (including high end names.) I am looking forward to returning next week to get my new glasses and sunglasses.
This is a «one stop for all» type of place. I will most definitely be returning and would highly recommend this place to anyone and everyone.
Thank you again Dr. Compton and staff =)

Dr. Compton was highly professional, courteous and prompt. My eye exam was very thorough and informative. I was very pleased with the services and will return. Thank you Dr. Compton!

Great place!!! Dr. Jason Compton and his staff were super friendly, the examination went pretty smoothly, and I received my contacts shortly after placing the order. Check this guy out you won’t be disappointed.

I dropped in today for an eye exam and the entire staff was awesome. Dr. Compton really took the time to examine me and then explain what the results were and how he was looking for any signs of future possible problems. They made Petey feel special too!

I have been looking for an Optician for a while and when a friend recommended Compton Eye Associates I was a little skeptical but, because it a friend who told me I said OK.
Bottom line the Team here is Awesome!!!
Upon entering the store which was very clean and well laid out, Madeline at the front desk greeted me with an amazing that was both warm and welcoming. When I was introduced to Dr. Compton he was very professional, courteous and down to earth. The Technician Suleimy who is my fellow Virgoan! She was very good at explaining each step of the exam as well as Dr. Compton. They both were willing to answer any and all questions I had and made the overall experience.
When I made it Selah he was helping me to pick the perfect frames. He was on-​point and knew the various pros and cons of of each maker. He laid out all additional costs and was able to offer me the best deal possible comparable to its competitors.
Again, my overall experience was very pleasant and I really appreciate the professionalism and friendliness made the visit a pleasant one.
I give them 5-​Stars and will recommend them to friends and family forever!

I was very happy to discover this place! Excellent service. They gave me full assistance in choosing the right frame, and since I need my new glasses ASAP they are putting in a rush order and it will be ready within 2 days. Serene and beautiful waiting room, with cold water bottles offered, very nice and curious employees, and all in all perfect service. Lots of beautiful frames to chose, too.

I have been a patient of Dr. Compton for many years and he patience and kind. When i found out that he moved to a new location, i made it me business to find him. The new office location is phenomenon. The service that i recieved today connot be compared to any other opthamologist that i ever been to in the last 25 years. It’s peaceful and quiet. Way to go Dr. Compton! The staff is great as well.
