EyeHaven

Excellent optometrist and place to buy glasses. I have been seeing Dr. Hymowitz for many years. I have extremely complicated eyes; off the charts near-​sightedness. Up until recently (due to an intervention recommended by Dr. Hymowitz) I had been wearing contact lenses for 40 years. My lenses had it all; hybrid hard /​soft lens, multi-​focal to address presbyopia and near-​sightedness, and toric to address astigmatism. Dr. Hymowitz worked with me as long as it took to to get the right lens and fit. He genuinely cares about his patients.

Had a 10am appointment, was seen immediately after completing paperwork. The tech took some pictures and measured my pupils in order to present to the doctor. I didn’t get to see Dr. H however a different doctor dilated my eyes and was kind as well as patient in letting me try on different contacts and was open to my decision about keeping the same brand I’m used to. I chose to have my insurance cover glasses since I wear my current ones most of the time and needed a backup. Contacts are worn once in a while so there was no rush to get an order at that moment. The tech helped me choose glasses and she SAID she was understood when I stated that I didn’t have the money for $ 200 – 300 pair of glasses. She ensured me that they were having a sale 20−50% off most glasses. I noticed that she was pushing more towards the higher end, designer glasses which isn’t my thing. I’m not going to purchase a $ 300 pair of glasses that could potentially break and have to pay tons to repair or replace… I know my insurance company will pay for x dollars worth of the cost and it will be 20% after but let me choose… I’m going to be the one having to pay out of pocket for damages!!! I’ve always been a Ray Bans girl so straying away from that was a bit uncomfortable. I know that Ray Bans are durable and have contacted the company for damages in the past. I actually wanted a pair of Ray Bans which she purposely put to the side when we used the «process of elimination» after she chose a few for me to try on. I ended up getting another pair that were not too expensive and looked great on me.
If you’re into splurging on glasses (like I do on food and hair salon trips), go right ahead but I for one will not rock Gucci, Prada or Tom Ford while I’m pushing my little Hyundai Accent.
Will I be back again? Hell yea, I need to pick up my glasses. A follow up? Maybe. I would have to first check out their competition if I’m still in the area by next year.

The absolute worst. Chaotic, confused & unprofessional. Sold me overpriced frames, the lenses were DAMAGED, improper fitting contact lenses, I got an eye infection that lasted for a month. I went to get my glasses adjusted, it was 5:02 pm & they did nothing. Stared at me through the glass like puppies at the pet store. Avoid this place like the plague.

I have been going to Dr. Hymowitz ever since he moved to Brookhaven. Not only is he the nicest Dr., but he is an awesome Dr. — he knows what he is doing and he takes the time to explain things without rushing you out of the office. I visit him once a year and it is always a pleasure to see him. His staff is awesome too.

Dr. Hymowitz seems to get really great reviews and the shop is beautiful with many great options. Even the person (I’m sorry that I forgot her name) who picks out all of the frames was nice. However, this review is about Rhonda, the tech who answered the phone, «greeted» us, and saw our 6 year old daughter.
My daughter was really complaining about her eyes and we couldn’t get into Ross Eye Care where we normally go until the following Monday. This was a Saturday and they could see us at 2:00. We drove in separate cars and I was the first to arrive. Rhonda was at the desk looking as if she had nails for breakfast. I said, «Hi, I’m early but we have a 2:00 appointment for Daniela.» She shoved the clip board toward us and said, «fill this out.» No, «Hello,» «How are you,» «Is this your first time here?» Nothing. I instantly felt unwelcome and although both my husband and I needed glasses (and frankly they have better frames than Ross!), I decided that we just needed to get our daughter seen and get of there. Because she was so rude, I opted to wait for my husband to show up with Daniela. They came in and again, there was no greeting. I kindly said, «they are here and ready to check in.» Again, the scowl and push of the clipboard towards us. At that point, I point blank said «you are so rude.»
I realized now that this had to be the same person who answered he phone when I called and I basically asked her to be be kind, as I really didn’t think it was necessary to talk to a customer in that tone.
It was my daughter’s first time getting her eyes checked and I have to say that there was ZERO warmth from this woman, Rhonda.
Dr. Hymowitz, why would you have someone so rude representing such a lovely business? If were gone, we would switch our family to your practice and we do still need glasses! I saw several paris that I loved!

The doctor is great but the staff is rude. I changed from my eye doctor of 5 years to support my local neighborhood but it is a shame that the staff ruined my experience. I went to visit Eye Haven at the beginning of April and asked for «dailies» contacts. They gave me a 90 quantity that expired at the end of April. I called and asked to exchange the box because I could not possibly use the 90 quantity within 1 month and got a lot of attitude from the lady on the phone. I drove to the store to exchange them and the staff was very rude. Not sure I’ll go back and I’m totally disappointed in the lack of service.

I’ve reached middle-​ish age and never worn glasses, or even had much of an eye exam. I put it off, looked at glasses at Costco, bought reading glasses at Target… it just seemed like too much time and trouble to find an eye doctor and go through the whole process.
I was finally referred to Dr. Hymowitz, and discovered why. He is excellent at his work! I instantly felt at ease. He was patient, friendly and extremely knowledgeable. He even has a cool machine that allows you to not have your eyes dilated for a routine exam — how great is that?
The staff was fantastic too. They walked me through the tests and were very reassuring, and did a great job helping me pick frames when I had no idea where to start from all the choices. It was all way easier than I expected, and I feel silly for waiting so long. Got my new glasses back quickly and the world is not blurry now!

Got glasses here about a year ago. I liked them a lot, but lost them after a few months, unfortunately. They said they would call me a year from my appointment to schedule another appointment. Never happened. I’ve sent them two e-​mails to ask whether they have the same glasses in stock with no response. My mom has had a poor experience getting a warranty honored here too. At the end of the day, I’m not going to force my business on you. I’ll go elsewhere.

I had my first appointment with Eye Haven in the past few days and I am very happy with my experience! The location is easy to get to with ample parking. Dr. Hymowitz and his staff are very friendly and put me at ease. The office it self is very clean, neat, and the technology is all up to date.
Over all, I would (and already have) recommended this office to friends and co workers.

Dr. Hymowitz always does a great job until he says my decrease in vision is age related. Nice selection of frames and helpful staff as well.

Great place I’ve never seen better!

I love EyeHaven! I have been on the hunt for a store that actually carries multiple high-​end labels so I could try them all on at once. I was pleasantly surprised when I went to EyeHaven, their selection is wonderful — Gucci, Burberry, RayBan, Tom Ford, etc.
The staff is wonderful and very helpful (and HONEST)! I can without a doubt say they helped me decide on the perfect pair of eyeglasses for me. I did not have a need to see the Dr. because I had my prescription with me, but I will be making my next checkup appointment at EyeHaven! Highly recommend.

I love eye haven! Not only is this location great tucked in the stores off Dresden but the frames selection is above par and the staff is super attentive and helpful. They are so communicative in booking the appt and helpful in answering questions.
I got some amazing Gucci specs here and they were ready for pick up within days!
Dr. Hymowitz is so knowledgeable and helpful and makes you feel very comfortable and you can tell he really cares about his patients. He makes it easy to understand things and ask any questions. He went above and beyond in making sure he answered all my questions and was 100% happy with my lenses and told me to call if for any reason in a few days I had any concerns — which I didn’t. I love my contacts he reccomended which is hard bc with astigmatism I try many lenses usually before a pair works.
I personally recommend Dr. hymowitz highly!

Dr. Hymowitz was great! The whole experience was easy and convenient. I had never worn contacts before but by the time I left I felt like a (almost) pro. They have a great selection of eyeglasses and though I resisted at first, the lady who helped me knew what she was doing!

Great staff. Very welcoming and friendly. Dr. Hymowitz is very informative and down to earth. The office is very clean and has all updated equipment. I would definitely recommend Eye Haven.

I have been a patient of Dr. Hymowitz for close to ten years and I truly believe he is one of the best optometrists in the Atlanta area. Before that I was always seen by a staff optometrist at a big chain store, and the difference between them and Dr. Hymowitz is like night and day. Your eye exam at Eye Haven is comprehensive and focuses not only on the prescription (which is the only thing the chain store is concerned about), but also more importantly, on your eye health. His staff is very attentive and friendly and they take the time to make sure you are satisfied.
I would highly recommend Dr. Hymowitz and Eye Haven. They are really focused on their patient’s needs and not just trying to sell a product.

Great staff, doc spent the time needed to make sure my needs were met. Third time I’ve tried to get the right prescription in my computer reading glasses. I can now see & no more headaches!
I will return here for sure!

Last week, I went to Eye Haven because I saw a pair of sunglasses in a magazine that I wanted to purchase. Even though they did not carry them, they placed a special order and got the ones I wanted.
Very impressed with Eye Haven. Dr. Hymowitz is great! He takes his time and patiently answers all my questions. His staff is also professional and helpful.
Highly recommend them.

My husband and I went in for a back-​to-​back eye appointment to see Dr. Hymowitz, who is quite friendly but more importantly, experienced. I had a bad prescription from another high end eye boutique in Atlanta who put a dizzying set of lenses in new Chanel eyeglasses and sunglasses. I was told the script would take a couple weeks to get used to – and it never happened. After expressing this, Dr. Hymowitz told me that he didn’t want me to screwed over twice, and long story short, the proof is in the pudding, – the iZon lenses that I now have are the best quality lenses I’ve ever worn. The BEST.
To give a bit of background, I’ve learned that in this business, you get what you pay for. I’ve been to low-​end dealers like American’s Best and purchased overstock Prada frames, which now have terribly scratched up – lenses (which were their «best» option) – complete GARBAGE. Lens Crafters is what you would expect from a franchise. The employees submitted an application here and at Old Navy.
The reason why I’m bothering to take the time to write a review today is because of who I believe to be Eye Haven’s greatest asset. It’s their manager, Robby. He’s got a very zen disposition without an ounce of sales pressure. Unlike most in this business, this guy really knows what he’s talking about… I actually mistook him for one of the optometrists within a moment into our first conversation and thought, «Wow, they have their doctors on the sales floor». I walked away from this experience fully satisfied in my purchase, and knowing that I supported a small business that blows its competition out of the water. Glasses, unlike most other purchases are something that enhances the quality of your life daily. When you plan to invest in a decent pair, go to this place. It’s worth every cent.

Really hard decision btw 3 – 4 stars
Overall I would say I would suggest anyone go there, so I tilt towards 4
Had a voucher for eye exam and I have never needed glasses, but was
due for one
I filled out standard paperwork and was told to look around
my 4 o’clock appointment became more like 430
but everyone was really friendly– answered questions with sincere help/​basically good service all around
when I got my exam, by a lady I forget the name of– she answered my questions walked me through all the expectations, yada yada
So the wait and the prices could be the only downside
Free parking nearby, clean, comfortable, okay variety
If I needed a prescription I would get my a pair, the avg frame is like 270–
eye exam normally under 100
price range $$$, feature designer line so, expect it
