"Dr. Leone and staff, I cannot thank you enough for! I think it says a lot about a doctor when she gives me her personal cell in case of emergencies and calls to check up on me. I’ve worn glasses and contacts since I was six years old, and I still can’t quite get over the fact that I went from contacts with a prescription of -10.00 (what is that, somewhere in the range of 20/1,000?) to 20/15 vision! It’s amazing to be able to roll out of bed in the morning and not have to reach for glasses!"

"My experience with Wilmington Eye was very good. Dr. Amanda B. explained that my floaters in my left eye were a natural part of life and I was happy to know that there was nothing I could have done to cause it. I also spoke with Dr. Hilary C. and she gave me the same advice concerning my right eye, which started having floaters a few months prior. "
Ruth S.
"While on an extended vacation I developed floaters in my right eye. I don't have an eye doctor in the area so I called Wilmington Eye and was immediately transferred to triage. After speaking to a nurse I was scheduled for an appointment the same morning in their Calabash office. Everyone whom I came in contact with was caring and professional. Dr. Watson examined my eyes thoroughly and determined that my condition is due to the normal aging process and not a retina detachment as I had feared. I was so relieved and so grateful for the prompt attention I received. And I know if my condition had needed treatment or surgery, I would have been in extremely kind and capable hands. "
Diana B.
"Noted floaters in my field of vision and called the afterhours line. They called me right back and were able to see me the next day. The doctor listened to what was going on, took pictures and determined that it was not something that needed to be treated urgently and scheduled me a follow up in 3 days with my primary ophthalmologist."

"Dr. Travis Pickens worked me in even though he was already running behind because his wife had just had a baby, even though I was an out-of-town urgent care patient. Thank you so much Dr. Pickens for superb care. You really made a difference in my life!"

"Dr. Oester and his team are absolutely wonderful! I left the office in tears today because of the genuine care and compassion they showed my 12-year-old son! If I could give more than 5 stars I would. I’m still in shock over their kindness after my son’s eyelid procedure! Thank you!"

"Had both eyes done by Dr. Jenkins. Did a great job. The staff is awesome and can’t say enough about Dr. Jenkins. First time since I was 16 yrs old and don’t have to wear glasses. I’m in my 70’s and it feels great. Thanks!"

"This is the second cataract surgery I have had within the last month. Dr. Covington and the entire staff have been most helpful, polite, and professional. I feel all of my questions have been answered and reassuring. From the minute I check in to be seen, the entire staff has been courteous and welcoming. I would highly recommend Dr. Covington and his staff!"

"Dear Dr. Polomsky, It’s been nearly 6 months since you removed the cataract in my eyes (graciously coming in on your vacation to help me) and I just wanted you to know that hardly a day goes by that I don’t whisper a silent “thank you” to you for my eyesight. I cannot tell you how grateful I am. Thank you, Dr.!"

"Since age 10 I have worn contacts and glasses to correct severe nearsightedness. Recently I decided to have ICL corrective vision surgery, and am simply amazed at my results. My quality of life through vision has unquestionably improved. I can see clearly day and night, in and out of water, and in the comfort of my natural eye. I look forward to experiencing all my passions (swimming, surfing, snow skiing, tennis) with clear ICL vision. I would highly recommend Wilmington Eye… professional, personable, quality results."

"With my first eye, I noticed the next day the vibrant colors! I didn’t realize that my vision had gotten so bad. It’s only been a week out from my second eye and my vision is 100%! I’m a retired nurse so I’ve witnessed cataract surgery a long time ago and I knew that it was kind of a big deal. But this was the easiest thing I have ever been through."
