Wicker Park Reviews

Dr. Zimmerman was fantastic. Genuinely took the time to make sure my daughter had the best eye exam possible. I couldn't recommend her highly enough and will definitely be coming back for all our future check-ups! Thank you for your excellent service!

Clean, welcoming and contemporary retail space.
Efficient, patient and friendly receptionist/support staff.
Superb service from Dr. Curosh who explained several details I'd never heard before about the health of my eyes and the rationale for my changing prescription.

Went here for an annual exam/contact lens fitting and had a great experience. Loved the fact that I was able to try on my new contact lens prescription there, and see what adjustments may be needed before confirming the prescription. Really friendly staff as well. Recommend!

Update to review in Fall 2018: Returned again this year for my annual check up, and the staff was very helpful, the eye doctor listened, offered advice, and overall it was a positive eye exam experience. When I was leaving, the staff helped me work through what was or wasn’t covered by insurance. However later I called to place an order for contacts, and yet again there were issues with getting charged the correct amount. Overall, after 3 visits with Village Eye Care and 3 times having issues with getting charged the right amount, I’m seriously reconsidering my eye doctor.

Original review from Fall 2017: This was my first time going to the Wicker Park location, but my second time going to a Village Eyecare location overall. The area was clean, staff was friendly, everything was timely and I had a great appointment, up until the billing. Last year at the Taylor location I wasn't charged correctly, but I assumed that was a one-off thing. However, a similar thing happened here and I ultimately was not charged the correct amount. Highly recommend being familiar with your insurance coverage yourself, and talking through the final statement prior to paying any charges to ensure you're paying the appropriate amount. (Also, would recommend doing this before you have your eyes dilated, so you can actually read the itemized bill.)

Dr. Curosh and the rest of the Wicker Park team were very helpful. Would highly recommend them!
