Doctor Meyer was so great! He was really friendly, professional, and engaged me in interesting conversation. After not having visited in a year and a half, he still remembered what job I had when I came in back then and referenced it. I was so impressed by his memory! He also wrote down the name of a specific doctor he recommended I see to take about getting lasik surgery, since i mentioned I might be interested in it at some point. He event wrote me a prescription for both glasses and contacts after I told him he just wrote me a prescription for contacts the first time. Overall, he was super helpful, he listened well, made me feel unique and valued. I've already recommended one of my friends to make an appointment with him!

I briefly mentioned that sometimes my eyes are sensitive to lights in the evening and Dr Meyer provided a great explanation as to why that may be occurring. He explained that since I sit in front of a computer most days the eye sensitivity is a natural result. He offered a great solution that has totally been helping! I'm very impressed with Dr Meyer and feel lucky to have him as a provider.

Dr. Myers specializes in ketatoconus. First off, he met me in the waiting room. How very refreshing. For anyone who has this eye disease, seeing well enough to drive or even read can be challenging. He discussed my treatment options, pros and cons. I now have scleral contacts and I'm so pleased with the outcome.

Dr. Meyer said something to me that REALLY helped me. He said, "You are going to get better and Your eye is going to heal and look normal again". When I left, I thought that was the most helpful thing anyone said to me. It was reassuring to know that my eye was not going to be deformed forever. I still believe that the chalazian was caused by the dialating drop getting into the oil duct and being rubbed into it by the tonometry machine. I'm not sure a tech should be doing that test?? Also, the techs clean the head and chin parts of the equipment, but I never saw the machines --that touch your eye get sterilized.

Besides my original eye care provider, I have not felt confident with anyone else that I have worked with. Dr. Meyer was exception to that rule. He spent time with me really trying to understand my condition and position with contacts. I have tried contacts a few other times and they were not very good experiences at all. Dr. Meyer listened and truly tried to understand my position and his first try got a contact in my right eye, which had never happened before. He didn't like how steep his first lens was but ended up really liking the second lens, and it ended up being the one that he ordered for me. The experience was so encouraging and I'm ecstatic about the vision I was able to gain, even with the temporary lenses that I tried on. Excited to get my new lenses.

Lindsay, the resident, perceived that my prescription warranted a slight change. Dr. Meyer concurred with this, and it was something that had crept up on me without my realizing it. Reading had become more strained over the last year, and a change in my prescription may help. Also, I have had trouble with my itching in my eyes and face, quite a lot in the last several months. I'd had prescription recommendations from two dermatologists since fall of '15, which helped some, but not enough. Dr. Meyer prescribed a steroid cream which is safe for eyes and quieted the itching entirely. He hit a home run, and I am very grateful

Dr Meyer was very friendly and courteous. I rated him Fair only because I felt as though he was rushed for time. My eyes were not dilated (perhaps he doesn't do this).

I visited Dr. David Meyer for an eye exam/new prescription, but I was examined by another person rather than the doctor himself; I have no clue whether she was an eye doctor. The exam was performed three times because my new prescription didn't seem to work. I'm not confident that the prescription is accurate, and I'll likely make an appointment with Dr. Schubach, my previous eye doctor. Dr. Meyer came in a few times to check on me while the other assistant/doctor examined my eyes, and he wasn't sure why the new prescription wasn't working for me. He mentioned a few things to the other assistant/doctor, but the best explanation he gave me was that sometimes things just don't work the way one would expect them to work. He was very cheerful and upbeat, and my interactions with him were very positive, but I wish he would have done an eye exam himself to compare to the other person's prescription. I had made an appointment specifically with him, and under the circumstances, I would have liked to have seen his prescription.
