Good Exam But...

After having a not-so-hot eye exam from an Eyeglass franchise last year, I opted to go to an actual doctor this year. Having found Dr. Rochetti online (with good reviews), I gave him a try. The exam was complete and thorough. That part I was very pleased with...

When it came to having my progressive glasses made, I decided to give Dr. Rochetti a try rather than going to Warby Parker, who made my last pair. That is where this story goes south. The lens can have a distortion, if you are not looking perfective though them. The effect is a bit like a fisheye lens. At some angles the image does not match up correctly in the middle. It happens especially about 3 feet away. This is not all the time nor at every distance but enough to throw me off once or twice during the day.

I did ask for the doctor to check the lens. During my return visit we went over the problem and he explained how progressive work (since I have been wearing them for a number of years I found this curious). He did go into the next room for a moment to adjust the frames (which did little). When I asked about checking the lens the doctor said he had (and that was fast).

So, in the end, my new glasses are my back up glasses. My old glasses are still for the daily use. I would go back for the eye exam but the next pair will be from Warby Parker instead. Oh well...

Dr. Rochetti is the model for doctors to follow. He is knowledgeable, trustworthy, warm, and he explains what and why he does what he does is A professional in all aspects.
I have seen Dr. Rochetti for over 30 years and his standards are always beyond excellent. Tom Adams

You never have to wait in the waiting room, you are the only one there when it is your time to see him.
