Excellent care as always! Ive been going to Visionary Eye Care since before I moved to the neighborhood, and it is so great having my eye care doctor within walking distance. They are organized and have great customer service. Highly recommend!
Always great service and super friendly. Dr Ciszek is awesome. Tells it like it is and very helpful w his recommendations and insight.
Every step of the process was professional and well planned. You get excellent treatment from start to finish; I felt confident that I was getting a thorough eye exam and everything was being completely explained.A few additions to the frame collection would make this five stars.
The professionalism and kindness from every person we met with was the best. I took my 14 year old in for her exam today and it was the same quality that I encountered for my exam a few months prior. The office is decorated beautifully as an added bonus. I highly recommend Visionary Eye Care.
The thoroughness and caring of staff makes it worth it to me to drive from Elgin to see Dr Michael Ciszek and his staff. I’ve been a patient since this practice opened and will continue for years to come.
Dr. Warner and team are so astute! I feel very well taken care of… been going here for more than 10 years… they never miss a beat.. outstanding service, best eye care, very personable- they know us! Love Visionary!
Dr. Ryan Nguyen is great! Very knowledgeable and provides a thorough examination! The staff is also great and friendly. They provide you with the best care and answered any questions I had, even before my appointment! Great experience.
Dr Cizek is absolutely wonderful. I never thought I would be able to wear contacts after my surgery for a detached retina, after seeing various optometrists, none of which took the time to listen and try different lens fittings. Dr Cizek figured out an Rx that worked. He’s a lovely person, and the office is so well run.
Went for my bi-yearly check up and as usual was extremely impressed with patient centered service oriented “vibe”of the office. The care and thorough exam was only matched by friendly and professionalism of the staff. I have been a customer for many years now and don’t see that changing any time soon.
Great with children. Very patient and thorough with examination and explaining results. We always have a great experience.
Love having my eyes cared with the professionals at Visionary eye. Visionary eye have the best staffs so kind and very helpful with your questions. Michael Ciszek has been my eye doctor for years and have been happy with my exams every time. This is why I give it a thumbs up!!Thank you so much.
Everyone at Visionary Eye Care Andersonville is kind and knowledgeable. The doctors are thorough and careful in checking your vision and eye health. The staff are helpful and honest when helping you choose glasses, and work with you to get the best fit.
Dr. Ciszek is amazing!!! He is extremely knowledgeable and compassionate. The staff is very helpful and pleasant.
Everything was explained to me. Everything was cleaned before my use. Would recommend this optical location.
This is a boutique optometrist experience, even for services as simple as frame adjustments. Simply called ahead for an appointment, buzzed the door, and was treated to courteous and professional assistance.
My dog broke my glasses while we were playing, leaving me in quite a pickle. I called Visionary, and they carved out a time for me to come in right away.They fixed my glasses super fast, returning me to the land of the fully sighted only a couple of hours after originally breaking them!
Just had my yearly eye exam at Visionary Eye Care. Dr. Warner has been my eye doctor for over 5 years. Hes very professional and did a thorough examination of my eyes. I trust him and his staff to provide excellent eyecare and they do follow Covid protocols. I give them high marks!! I had my exam at the Andersonville location.
Staff was friendly, efficient and on time. Dr. Warner is an incredibly knowledgeable, patient and thoughtful provider. Hands down, the best!!!
New to Chicago so I was having trouble finding an optometrist that lives up to the one I’ve been going to for a decade prior to moving. I’m so happy I shopped around, this team is so fantastic. Very kind and listened to my questions to understand my needs and concerns. I look forward to continue working with the Visionary Eye Care team going forward!
Brian did a great job of patiently helping me select two pairs of glasses I love. I have never encountered so many frames that I liked, so making a choice was challenging. I would have been lost without Brian’s advice.
The best and friendliest ophthalmologist I ever visited. My mom had an emergency and they got us in right away. highly recommended!!!!!
Staff at Visionary Eye care were very friendly, professional and extremely helpful.Thank you for a very pleasant experience!
Brian is fantastic!! He gave great advice on my frames and was so helpful and kind throughout my visit. I ran into a snag with my eyeglass prescription (my fault) and he helped clear it up for me. I love the selection at this store and will def be coming back!
Ive been seeing Dr. Warner for over a decade. Hes very thorough and provides detailed explanations of your condition and recommended treatment. I always leave feeling well informed. The staff at Visionary is always very helpful, professional and client oriented. They also have a great selection of glasses. I love this place.
Truly amazing care and service. Great Drs. Always so friendly and thorough- great equipment. If you need a specialist cone here well worth it!!
Walking in the door, they’re so welcoming. I’ve been going there for several years. And will continue going there for several more. They are the epitome of care.
Wonderful staff everyone is so friendly and helpful. The office is clean and modern. Great experience. Thank you!
Had the best experience at Visionary Eye Care Professionals! From my eye exam to selecting new frames, everyone was courteous, professional and had my best health in mind. Will definitely be coming back!
Visionary is one of the most responsible businesses around - they are very careful about sanitation and safety while continuing to provide their excellent services.I appreciate that Dr. Joe Warner always takes the time to explain procedures and answer my questions. I value the depth of his knowledge and I trust him to give me reliable information.The rest of the staff are always cordial and efficient. My family and I have been going to Visionary since they opened. They’re the best!
As always, I enjoy interacting with the doctor and staff! They’re very helpful and take the time to share useful information. Definitely glad I’ve found visionary and plan to be a patient for many years.
I had a great time at my appt today - such a friendly and helpful staff. It was efficient and easy and I highly recommend them :)
Very good attentive service. Took my teenage son who’s very shy and they always make him feel comfortable and assist in choosing glasses that look good.
Fantastic and warm experience, I’ve never had such a comprehensive exam done before and my appointment was just the basics. They work with insurance and handle everything that needs to be handled which allowed me to avoid going back and forth with my insurance provider about benefits.
Visionary Eye Care team were very helpful and efficient during my visit. I appreciated their expertise and care today. Thanks!
Great service all the way around, from the moment you walk in, through your exam and picking out frames if needed. Very pleased with my experience at Visionary. The goal was to help my 14 year old find her first pair of glasses. That we did, so everything was a success!
Great staff, Dr. Warner is great, and I’ve had a long complicated history of… seeing. Glad I found them many years ago, and huge bonus that they’re so well located.
Wonderful place with extremely helpful team all around. Love Dr. Warner - thorough - explains things and makes sure you are comfortable with plan for your care. Cant say enough good things - and fantastic selection of frames! 5 STARS!!!
This is the most thorough eye exam I have ever experienced.. meticulous in everything they do including covid precautions...Staff is exceptional. I felt cared for in every way possible... I highly recommended Visionary Eye Care !Can’t wait to go back 😊
Saw Dr. Warner. Very impressed! I have had issues due to a troubled LASIK procedure. Dr. Warner listened to my concerns and efficiently AND effectively got me a prescription that addressed those issues.HIGHLY recommend!
Dr. Was amazing explaining all the details about the exam. I feel very welcome by all staff.
Love Visionary Eye Care -- everyone on staff. Extremely knowledgeable and attentive, and they keep it fun when helping me shop for frames. They have a good selection at varying price points. Despite the pandemic, I felt very safe during my exam and while trying on frames.
I’ve been a client at Visionary for well over six years, and I feel complete trust in the expert level of care I’ve received from both Dr. Ciszek and Dr. Warner. Both doctors are patient, thorough, innovative, and kind. The opticians, particularly Jamar Holloway and Brian Estep, are true artists in every sense of the word. They offer their time and talent generously to find eyewear that is favorable to one’s coloring and features…and they assure a superb fit. Jeff makes certain you have a full understanding of insurance, benefits, payments, and scheduling. This is an excellent place for comprehensive eye care.
Visionary is practicing careful social distancing. GOOD.They were able to do what I needed without face-to-face contact. GOOD JOB. THANK YOU.First eye exam since BC, before covid.Everyone was masked, as was I . Very friendly and helpful. Explained my cost clearly.GOOD JOB. THANK YOU.
Well done. Professional and friendly.
First time customer. Treated promptly, pleasantly and with professionalism.
This is the only place I’ll go for exams and glasses. I’ve twice tried other optometrists over the years and have come back both times. Their attention to detail, level of service and the time they spend to make sure that I’ve received their best is extraordinary.
Very nice people and they made me feel very comfortable during the whole visit. I would like to add an additional five stars to make it a perfect ten out of ten!
First visit, easy and painless, even answered my weird questions. Highly recommended.
A+ service. I have been going to Dr Michael C for 20 years. Will never consider going to another eye doctors. Great service, great staff and 2 locations available. One of my favorite service providers.
Everyone was friendly, helpful, and practiced really great safety guidelines throughout my visit. My exam felt thorough, which was appreciated. Everything was more affordable than I expected, too!
Im from out of town, and had the misfortune to break the frames of my bifocals. I called Visionary to ask about repairs, and they were able to handle the repair quickly and easily. Their Covid-19 protocols made me feel very safe even though I was only in the office for 15 minutes. It appears to be a very friendly collection of young eye care specialists, unlike my stogy old optometrists back home :-). And no charge! I had a very nice experience there.
Ive been coming here for YEARS, but on a whim, I went to another optometrist a year ago and boy did I regret it.Dr. Ciszek and the rest of the Visionary staff are the best!
I absolutely recommend VECP to everyone who asks for a referral! Thank you
I have been a patient of the Andersonville office for 3+ years and love it from the minute I walk in. Everyone is helpful, professional and always tells the truth about the glasses I choose. 😊The optometrists take their time with exams and explain everything carefully. I wouldn’t hesitate to suggest this office to any of my friends.
The entire staff is warm, welcoming, and very covid conscious. Great place for eye care! I highly recommend it!
Its always a delight to see Dr Michael, he invented bedside manner. And the staff is the best at helping choose the most flattering frames. A cant recommend Visionary highly enough.
They were awesome to fix my lens. It popped out. They fix it fast and for free.. gonna schedule my appointment next month for an update on my glasses.
As always the staff and Dr. and intern are both friendly and awesome !
Terrific doctors and staff. Everyone is warm, helpful and informative. Most of all, they are efficient! I barely have to wait anytime I’m there and I never feel rushed or like things are slow.
Very friendly and very nice people work here and its very clean and quiet!
Visionary is great! Everyone is always so friendly and genuinely helpful. They have great COVID safety procedures so I felt very safe at my appointment.
This office is so great! It’s always painless to make an appointment and all of the staff are lovely. The office was very clean with strict policies - I felt extra safe when it came to covid. Highly recommend!
I had a great experience here- before COVID and during! Prior to the appointment, they had me fill out a questionnaire to share any relevant medical history. This reduced the amount if in-person appointment time. When I entered, they took my temperature and escorted me to wait for about 5 minutes. Staff were friendly and Helpful . Highly recommend and felt very safe!
Great service. very thorough exam. first time client and i would highly recommend
Very professional, knowledgeable, friendly, efficientAnd they have beautiful glasses!
Quick and painless annual visit. Everything was done with care and I was out the door with my new Contacts easily
This was my first time visiting Visionary Eye Care. Their staff were friendly, professional, and efficient. Dr. Nguyen was excellent. He reviewed my vision history, asked a lot of questions about my context and how I feel about my current glasses and contacts. After having been to a major chain eye doctor for the last few years, this experience was much more personal, and I feel more confident that my glasses and contacts will be better suited to my work and life. Their opticians are also excellent. They have superior knowledge of vision insurance and billing, and theyre great at helping select suitable frames. Ive never had an easier time choosing and paying for new glasses. Visionary will be our new go-to eye doctor.
My annual eye exam coincided with the end of the stay in place but luckily they were open to appointments. I was impressed how seamless the process was upon entering, they took my temperature, made me wash my hands and took every precaution to ensure mine and the doctors safety. They maintain proper social distancing by limiting customer interaction in the store. As always, very professional and supportive which is why I continue to go there.
From checking in to checking out Visionary Eye Care provides personal and professional service. Dr Nguyen was very thorough and efficient during the exam. No pressure to purchase frames or lenses that werent necessary. Highly recommended!
Very efficient and friendly service. Staff/establishment taking all precautions and ensuring a safe visit for all during the pandemic.
My first visit to Visionary and it was great! They’re in top of COVID procedures - you have to be let in, they check your temperature and masks are required! The staff was very helpful explaining everything and the appointment went very smoothly.
Ive been a patient for several years. All the doctors are very thorough and do a great job listening to, and answering, any questions.The rest of the staff is always friendly and very helpful, whether Im there to select new frames or just get my glasses adjusted. Id highly recommend Visionary Eye Care for your eye care needs.
Ive been coming here for years and I always have a fantastic experience! Ive met with all of the Doctors and trust them all. I also love that they help me choose a frame, as I can be very indecisive. This time around I requested contact lenses for the first time and they were very thorough with making sure I was comfortable with the whole process of using them. They even coached me along with putting them in and taking them out several times. I also never feel hurried and they are very knowledgeable about insurance. If I could give Visionary Eye Care ten stars, I would!
What can I say? Everytime I come here it reminds me of my childhood. I grew up in Andersonville. My best friends parents used to own Simons Tavern. The entire staff at Visionary is always very courteous, professional and welcoming. Anytime I need my glasses adjusted or need samples of contact lenses they are ready for me! You will not regret coming here. Thank you all for doing such an amazing job! Even is this pandemic!
I had a concern and they squeezed me in even though they were busy. I appreciate that and the genuine concern with my vision. I highly recommend.
Dr. Michael and the ENTIRE team at Visionary Eye Care are incredible. I look forward to my annual visits because everyone greets me with warmth, friendliness, professionalism, patience, and strong knowledge of what they do. Its a great [and possibly unique] experience to go to a business where everyone consistently embodies these attributes.I highly recommend Dr. Michael and his team.If you want a kind, professional, humorous,and extremely knowledgeable doctor who can simply but very thoroughly explain your particular eye case, in a really fresh, inviting environment, you must make an appointment with Dr. Michael.
We’ve always loved coming here...so much that we switched insurance to be able to stay with them. The docs and staff have always been so gracious and kind, to me and my kids. They are attentive, authentic, aren’t pushing a sale, and support you with knowledge, kindness, humor and honesty.
This place is nothing short but amazing! I have been coming to Visionary for over 10 years. I simply love this place!!
Love these guys. Extremely competent eye care professionals. Ive had a variety of bumps along the road as I age, and theyve diagnosed and managed my visual health every step of the way.
Good, comprehensive exam. Was aware of and took previous history into account. Answered all of my questions well.
Dr Warner is so kind...everyone is! Ive had great experiences here at Visionary Eye Care. Ill be back. No question.
Ive gone to Visionary several times for exams for both myself, and have taken both of my children. Each time, our exams have been thorough and professional. I love the selection of glasses and especially sunglasses (I admit, I have a problem!) and I really love the advice of the people that work there - since they are all so stylish themselves! Visionary has been in the neighborhood for so long, and I can see why. Great customer service, eyecare and excellent products!
Always professionalSuper clean, without any clutterVery confident during Covid to go to office & shopEntry with appointment & temperature check, after completing significant online questionnaireAlway best fashion options for glasses with excellent recommendations for which glasses look best & fit my face best. I could go anywhere for glasses but I’ve been going (18 years) & will continue to go to visionary eye care. Both strategically located locations - 1 in loop & 1 in Andersonville are convenient with easy accessPeople always comment on my glasses & ask me where I got them
I didnt catch anyones name but it might not matter. Everyone was incredibly helpful. I picked out two pairs of glasses in about 10 minutes based on the techs recommendations, and was also in and out for my exam. Both the optometrist and the tech were sensitive to any cost issues I might have. Masks required, temperature taken at the door and the tech brings the glasses to you so he can sterilize them after fitting. I felt safe. See you next year, guys.
Was extremely happy with the level of service, the time during my exam which everything was explained to me and having time to ask questions that I had.Even with COVID precautions, the office wait time was minimum and cleaning and social distancing was enforced well with all customers.
Excellent & friendly service, and their Covid-19 protocols were great. Highly recommended!
I have been going to Dr. Ciszek’s practice for nearly 20 years. I have never had a more kind, caring and compassionate eye doctor (and staff) than at Visionary. The doctors are cutting edge in their field. I went in today for a yearly review and left with a sense of confidence about my results. I can’t recommend them enough!
Ive been a patient here since the 90s. And even though I dont even live in the area anymore, I will do the hour drive for my appointments. Hands down a faithful patient and everyone here is fantastic!Thank you for all you do!
Excellent processes for covid and the staff is always friendly and kind. I moved further from it than before and still go back because of the care.
Been coming to this chic eyecare place for about 10 years. Having 2 locations is super nice, and they always have good glasses. I especially like being able to return later for adjustments.
The care, scheduling and professionalism at Visionary is top notch!
Easy squeduling call. All around welcoming smiles! 🙂 Answered all my worrisome questions and left me at ease. Dr.Jaime is Awesome! Will make this my new go to place for vision care! 😁
Dr Michael and his staff are truly exceptional people and professionals. Ive been seeing Michael for a number of years now. He listens intently, is thorough, an excellent diagnostician, always explains things in ways that allow me to fully understand, and is a great human being as well. His staff is always cheerful, professional, and very helpful. I believe that my eyes are in the best hands possible at VEC.
Ive never experienced this level of cutting edge professionalism and attention to detail anywhere else. Exams take a little longer, but its totally worth it. Outstanding.
Awesome as usual. Called up for a minor repair, set appointment for next day and I was in and out in 15 minutes
Visionary always gives excellent service. Doctors and staff are knowledgeable, warm, and friendly. I contacted them for an eye injury and they were able to see me within a few hours. I highly recommend for all eye care needs!
Youre gonna want to read this. I usually dont trust 5 star reviews because I always figure it was written by an employee, but I am not an employee or a friend but a customer. I sustained an eye injury from a nerf gun ( yeah yeah I know) & went to Pearl Vision & hated everything about that place. I came to Visionary & it was night & day. You wont find that annoying puff-of-air eye pressure test here, only state of the art equipment with top notch doctors. The staff here are great too. They follow COVID-19 guidelines to the T & made me feel very safe & comfortable. You want to go here.Ok, Im done. Carry on
Best eye doctor experience I’ve had, even in the middle of a pandemic - everyone was kind, helpful, and knowledgeable, and my doc was a Trekkie.
Always great service and really safe in the pandemic. Strong cleanliness procedures, still super friendly and so efficient. Visionary is the best place for eyewear and care!
Stunning service from the entire team. They have a genuine desire to fit glasses and contacts to your eyes and show literally zero pressure or rushing through the process. More than happy to answer questions. Also—the store, equipment, and reception area is incredibly clean. 10/10!
