I put off LASIK for nearly two years because I was worried about the time it would take and the hassle. My only regret now is that I did not schedule this procedure sooner!

The staff members I encountered were friendly, informative and did not keep me waiting as most doctors do! My entire appointment lasted about two hours. I was able to watch a video of the surgery, meet with Dr. Varley and also go ahead and pick the day I wanted to have the surgery. They went over billing and answered every question I had. I left feeling educated on the procedure and comfortable.

I truly feel I owe my eyesight to Cincinnati Eye Institute. During a recent visit to CEI, Dr. Adam Kaufman and Dr. Erich Hinel discovered the sarcoidosis in my eyes had become active again. They also diagnosed both of my eyes with glaucoma and referred me to Dr. Alan Zalta, who explained why I was having problems and how to cure them. Within four weeks, with the help of laser treatments and eye drops, I no longer have problems! Thanks to the speedy care given to me by these doctors, my eyesight was saved.

My wife and I have been fortunate to be under the care of Dr. Edward Holland for several years. He performed cataract surgery on my second eye. Cincinnati Eye Institute and its patients are so fortunate to have Ed Holland with us to provide superior care. He is experienced, intelligent, industrious and caring…to name only four adjectives. He is the consummate professional in every way.

Thank you for having such an excellent ophthalmologist to treat us.

Thanks so much for your excellent service and a truly technological advancement in hearing aids. Having been treated at another Clinic, I was skeptical of purchasing hearing aids again and felt the technical advances were more hyperbole than fact. That was not the case with your product and the service you offered.

My LASIK surgery was five years ago, and my vision is still better than 20/20. I ran the Flying Pig last year, and I’ve also run the Chicago Marathon. And I don’t have to worry about my glasses anymore.

I recently had cataract surgery on both eyes. At first, I was very apprehensive because I’d never been to Cincinnati Eye Institute and the procedure was frightening to me. From the very first interaction, the staff at CEI made me feel comfortable. They first sent me a CD with information on the procedure and what to expect, which was so helpful. Even the directions to the facility were so appreciated, because I was just nervous. And then when I met Dr. Michael Nordlund, he was so confident and I immediately knew I could trust him.

I have never experienced such friendliness and consideration as I had with staff at both facilities. Even after my surgeries, I have called back with questions, and each person I’ve spoken with has been serious about helping me, even when my questions seemed to me to be silly. I was very happy with my experience and am at present recommending CEI to all who need eye care.

Thank you for such a good experience!

Thank you for providing exceptional service and being so professional. This morning my hearing aid was not working properly. I am going on vacation in a few days. Linda was able to get me an appointment and John was able to find and correct the problem with my aid quickly.

Hearing aids are an expensive investment, but necessary for those of us who have hearing loss. John and Linda provide great service and have always been able to resolve any issues I have had with my aids in the office and I have never had to have my aids shipped out for costly repairs. I am very glad that I chose The Hearing Services at CEI when purchasing new aids.

I have been a patient of Cincinnati Eye Institute for several years. My first experience with CEI was for cataract treatment, and I now receive ongoing care for issues with my retina. The care I have received from CEI is excellent. I am quite confident that my eye condition is being treated in the best possible way, and my confidence in Dr. Robert Foster is very high. Coupled with his professionalism and the concern he communicates to his patients, his medical knowledge and skill evoke my highest regard.

I was also recently treated for an eye emergency at CEI’s Urgent Eye Clinic. I didn’t know they offered emergency services, but when I had an issue with my vision on New Year’s Eve, my primary care doctor sent me straight to CEI. I was treated that very same day, which was awesome.

I recently joined a “trial” with Dr. Varley for Implantable Contact Lenses surgery. I wanted to share my experience. Dr. Varley is a wonderful doctor who will NOT stop until he gets something right. The best word to use for him and his abilities is perfect. He is a patient, caring, and honest doctor who puts everything and then some into his work and his patients. He is one of the most informative doctors that I have ever met and his “bed-side” manner is unbelievable.

I just wanted to share my experience at The Hearing Services at CEI. I knew I was not hearing well before I came in. After having the test it confirmed that I did have a loss of hearing.

I decided I would try the small hearing aids that you can’t see in your ears. I truly couldn’t believe the difference. On the way home my husband had to turn the radio in the car down because it was way too loud.

Even at home, I hear things I had never heard before like the air-conditioning running, and birds. I hear better on the telephone too. I work at a bank. Employees I work with couldn’t believe the difference it made in me.

I wish I had not waited so long be get hearing aids. I wear them approximately 12 hours a day and don’t even know I have them in. I have even gone to bed and had to get up and take them out. They are so comfortable that I barely know they are in my ears.

Thanks for giving me back my hearing.

My wife said, ‘If you’re not going to wear your other hearing aids, why don’t you go to the Hearing Services at CEI?’ Well, I did, and not only was I pleased to hear my wife of over 50 years, but she was just as pleased that now I was hearing what she had to say!
