For Eyes Optical

My family and I have been going to For Eyes in Schaumburg for 6 years now. We return because the service is phenomenal. Kristy and Patty are extremely knowledgable, helpful efficient and honest. You’ll leave For Eyes knowing that you’ve had excellent care of and have made the best decisions. I highly recommend this location of For Eyes.

Overall, the prices at For Eyes have been fair and I have been pleased with my glasses prescriptions. However, I have very underwhelmed by the staff at For Eyes, and specifically, Dr. Joanna Kawecka. During my past two visits, Dr. Kawecka has made extremely rude comments to me. She has been very disrespectful towards me, and has refused to acknowledge any issues I am having with my eyes/​contacts. After telling her I have itchy eyes and issues with my contacts, she laughed, and proceeded to encourage me to keep buying the same brand of contacts (she did not make any other suggestions or recommendations).
I do not plan on returning to this For Eyes ever again, and I would never recommend it to a friend or family member.

I was able to get a same day exam. The O.D. was very friendly and I was in and out in 30 minutes. Friendly service while I was there. I definitely recommend if you’re in a rush to just get the prescription and get on with the rest of your day.

I recently moved out to the suburbs and needed a new eye doctor so I chose this location since it was close to home. I was able to get a Saturday appointment for the same week, the staff was friendly, and Dr. Kawecka was awesome. She answered all the questions I had, made me feel comfortable, and was very nice. Other than that just a normal appointment so no issues came up.

I decided to call back yesterday. They were apologetic and also offered free trial and contact solution, which is a nice gesture!

Much better experience when I went last week! I feel more confident about my health after speaking with the doctor/​owner of this location. She was very patient and answered all of my questions. She explained reasoning behind a lot of concerns that I had due to the conversation with the first doctor that I’d work with. She was very reassuring and I left feeling better about my decision to give this location another try. My contacts came in promptly and pick up was quick and easy. Thank you Jorge for contacting me regarding my experience and encouraging me to your company another chance and thank you to the doctor (sorry can’t remember her name) but thanks for caring and explaining things thoroughly! Good customer service goes a long way!

Doctor a 10, service people a 10 and over all office is a 10 ! I pulled up at 9:50am and they invited me in 10 minutes to get me started ! Amazing service ! Highly recommend these guys !

I came here to get a new pair of glasses for my son, the assistant Athenia, was very helpful, courteous, and professional (even though I came in at 4:30 and they close at 5pm. you know how sometimes you are given attitude and the whole «you know we close in 30 min» or «you should come back tomorrow») No, not her, she was a sweetheart. My son had out grew his current pair of frames even though we had just gotten them from another provider in May, and she picked out the perfect ones that would last a little longer instead of frames that fit just right, she noted that these have «room to grow» as my son is only 8. Which is more that I can say for the last place I went to.
This is going to be my go to place for eye care for my whole family from now on.
Thanks Athenia

This review is for both the Schaumburg store and the Lakeview Store in Chicago.
Not impressed. The glasses came back ok, but I find the way For Eyes does business is questionable. Contact lens order took over 4 weeks and still have not received. 1800 Contacts delivered within 2 –3 days. These guys forget it. I will keep my business with online venders who actually deliver.
I had ordered around $ 500 worth of eye wear and contact lens from For Eyes. The glasses came out ok and were done fairly quick. The presentation of them using these cheap lens cases for designer frames I find quite questionable when Pearl Vision always gave you the designer case. I had refused to accept delivery on a pair of $ 200 len frames that didn’t come without a Ralph Lauren hard shell case. After much talking with the management, I finally received a hard shell case. I should not have to be haggled to get a lens case. Give it to the customer it shows they will take care of their glasses.
This message is not against Dr. Klein or their staff. Dr. Klein is one of the best optometrists I know at least in Schaumburg area. I will however not keep my business with For Eyes because I was not impressed with time to delivery for my contact lenses.

sweethearts and hvery helpful! Their prices are honest and if you $ 500 here is cause you bought 5 pairs of glasses not one :) Thanks for everything guys! You are great!

I love love love this place! i have been in glasses and contacts all my life, and i have finally found a place where i want to go back. Dr. Klein was very personal be and professional. Roxanne took one look at me and pulled out the PERFECT pair of glasses for me. She also found a way for me to get an additional $ 30 rebate on top of the $ 60 rebate that was normally being offered for contacts. I found the selection to be very up to date. sometimes a eye wear store has all sorts of older outdated styles filling the wall, this is NOT the case at For Eyes. I would recommend this store to everyone, and I am thrilled at how fun and easy the whole experience has been. i think the pricing was quite competitive as well.

Submitted my frames and prescription to get new lenses. The set an initial expectation of 3 business days. It’s now been 2 weeks and I still don’t have my lenses. They said the lenses didn’t pass final inspection twice and then they broke my frames. They claim they will give me the best possible product, but delays and expectations they set make me wish I went elsewhere.

We love Dr. Kline and his staff. We have been going there for 15 years and he is the best – excellent care and friendly staff. My husband had a very serious and rare eye condition and we were so thankful to be under Dr. Kline’s care so my husband was diagnosed properly and received the care he needed. Dr. Kline went way above and beyond and we felt so thankful for his expertise. We recommend him to everyone. Don’t look any further. This is where you want to be for the best eye care for your family!

I’ve been to a few doctors in the area, and feel like I finally found a place that fits all of my needs without all of the stress. Dr. Kline is fantastic, he did a great job getting me the special contacts I requested (other stores had trouble). Great staff, very friendly!

whew! If going to the eye doctor isn’t stressful enough…
The eye doctor here (Dr Klein) is amazing.
Everyone else here… complete and utter meh! The person (Vanessa) inputting my information on the computer. Couldn’t get the numbers correct. Instead of asking for help she just plugged along and said «she knew how to do it». (I asked her to talk to her boss if she was having trouble)
Then in pricing my contact lens. She told me one price. Then she said a price $ 34 more. When I asked her why the price increased. She told me a discount didn’t take effect. After I walked in the door to my house, she called me telling me she overcharged me $ 34.
Now, if you do not know what you are doing. Pls check with your manager before the patient leaves. You are talking about eyesight here.
Now I am not sure if she was incompetent (um, yep), dumb, or trying to scam money out of me…;When the contacts come in we shall see if they fit or not

Great company all the way around. I have been buying glasses from them for at least 30 years. Their first store in the area was originally on Clark St. When I opened a business in Schaumburg I started to buy at the local one. Mike Klein is great and very informed on eye health care. Connie is the best and always has been. She started helping me pick out glasses and shades over 25 years ago. I am in West Loop in Chicago now, however I still make the road trip out to this store because they are great.

I’ve been going to Dr. Klein for over 20 years and have not been disappointed. They’ve been consistently friendly and helpful through many pairs of glasses and contacts, as well as when a small makeup particle was stuck in my eye and had to be removed. The prices are fair and you will have to wait at least a few days for your contacts or glasses to be delivered, but they usually give a fresh new pair of contacts before you leave the store.

For eyes has great deals, and very cute glasses. I actually have family members that work for lenscrafters yet still go to for eyes to get their lenses lol. I would definatley recommend you try them!

I went through all the normal stuff to get glasses at this place — I had my eyes checked, I picked out frames and then I had to wait a week for my glasses to come in. The first time they came in the lenses were scratched (as in I couldn’t see through them). I sent them back to the lab and was told to wait another week. So I went back a second time and they were scratched again. It looked like they had tried to clean them up, but didn’t finish the job. I sent them back again. A week later I picked them up and they were fine. I asked for some sort of coupon or something for all the trouble. The woman I was dealing with refused to give me anything or even apologize. I will never return to For Eyes and I have told all of my friends and family about what happened.
