Carbon Valley Eye Care

This was my first time getting glasses so I don’t not have much to compare my experience to but I must say that Dr. Koditek and his staff were phenomenal. Both my husband and I had our eye exams and glasses ordered here and we both left happy. Dr. Koditek took the time to explain everything he was doing and left no question unanswered. However the real fun began after the exam, picking frames! I probably spent half an hour trying on frames from their vast selection (Oakley, Vogue, Ray Ban, etc.) and both of our glasses were ready for pickup in less than a week. We will definitely be returning!

Dr. Koditek and the team and Carbon Valley Eye Care went above and beyond, getting me glasses and contacts better than I’ve had in years! I have a really strong prescription and have had «just OK» vision for years. I’m seeing better now than ever, and my new contact lenses are the most comfortable ones I’ve ever had.

My wife and I recently became patients at Carbon Valley Eye Care, and after our first appointment today, we could not be happier about our decision to switch to CVEC.
After a bad experience with our previous optometrist’s office, we had a few questions regarding our insurance compatibility with CVEC. Madonna went above and beyond in answering these questions for us well before our first appointment, alleviating all of our concerns.
The entire staff — Madonna, CJ, and Dr. Koditek — was extremely friendly and helpful. They each made our visit a very pleasant experience!
Both my wife’s and my previous two eye exams with our prior optometrists felt rushed, and we ultimately walked away not feeling too confident that our prescriptions were completely accurate. Dr. Koditek, on the other hand, took his time explaining each aspect of the exam and ensured that our final prescriptions were correct. My wife and I both agree that we’ve never felt more comfortable than we do now with our updated prescriptions.
We have absolutely no reservations in recommending Carbon Valley Eye Care to anyone in (and around) the Firestone area.

Dr Koditek is the best. Great knowledgeable service at a great price. Most thorough eye exam I have ever had and I’ve been wearing contacts for 30 years. Great selection of contacts and glasses and sunglasses as well. I highly recommend Carbon Valley Eye Care!

Dr. Koditek is very knowledgeable and friendly. He takes the time to help create understanding for any given scenario. He does a thorough exam and has a knack for explaining himself. He was able to refer us to a colleague for our infant son which has made finding care for our son easier.
The Staff is super friendly and helpful as well and are timely with call backs if necessary.
Highly recommended!!! Support small town business and just a flat-​out good Dr!

A new eye doctor, Dr. Koditek, has taken over this shop and I highly recommend him to any and all poindexters out there like myself. Dr. Koditek is knowledgeable, with all the latest techniques and equipment, and is the damn-​hell most amiable and friendly doctor I’ve ever been privy to. A small-​town optometrist, perhaps, but you wouldn’t know it by the great selection of glasses offered in the store. Dr. Koditek’s staff is also very likeable, helpful, and easy to deal with. In short, I had a great experience.

Competent doctor but incredibly hard to deal with this office. The concept of «convenient hours» isn’t something they’ve apparently ever considered and they’ll bury you with reams of unnecessary and duplicative paperwork that must be completed and brought with you to your vist. Their eyeglass selection is low-​end and limited, thankfully I don’t generally wear my glasses in public so «made do» with the least ugly pair of frames I was able to fine. This office is 2 miles from my house but I will NOT be going back for next years exam — I’ll gladly drive 15 miles into Longmont to go to an office that wants to work with me instead of against me.

I am really impressed with Carbon Valley Eye Care. The staff is incredibly friendly and knowledgable, and Dr. Wright is by far the best eye doctor I’ve ever had. She is patient and thorough, and she makes it a point to stay up on the latest technology in eye care. Her expertise is more than evident. They also have a great selection of frames, and they are willing to take the time to get to know your personal needs and help you select lenses and frames that are best suited for you. My glasses were ready quickly, and I received an invoice right away. I didn’t have any trouble using my EyeMed insurance either. I travel from Denver to Firestone to see Dr. Wright because I know that she will ensure all of my eye care needs are met, and I like the vibe I get in a smaller office setting. Thanks to everyone at Carbon Valley!

POSITIVE: On a positive note, I thought the doctor was knowledgeable and did a great job and I will probably go back for the exam just because they are less than 5 minutes from my house.

I’ve been going here for several years because it’s close to where I live. I use VSP and have found this provider to be more affordable than some others who want to max out my VSP and charge me another $ 220 for glasses, etc.
I like Dr. Lindsay a lot and think she is very caring and knowledgeable. I’ve always felt well taken care of…
I do feel the glasses selection is somewhat limited and bought my last pair at Target because their selection is huge. I suspect a smaller office like this cannot compete with a huge chain store, anyway, keeping an expanded inventory. Not sure what other reviewers are talking about, because I’ve received the prescription every time I’ve gone without asking for it.
Their prices on contacts are competitive with online providers. They’ve also been sure to provide the rebate forms that are currently available.

This is a small-​town optometrist. If you live or work in Firestone, it’s your best bet — they were competent, got me into the contacts I needed and accepted my VSP insurance. I didn’t love the doctor I saw, I thought the tech who did my initial exams was kind of a jerk, and the front desk staff was slow because they were busy gossiping with one another. But did they do the job? You betcha.

I went here twice, and after the second time, decided to take my business elsewhere. I was also surprised that they did not give me a copy of my prescription. I know that they are a small business but I need to be able to explore my lens and frame options. I was in several times between my two visits for adjust the glasses I purchased and noticed that their turnover rate for staff seems high. Their professionalism is sub par.
I recently switched to Front Range Eye Associates in Broomfield. They accept VSP, have plenty of experienced staff and excellent customer service.

I had a GREAT experience here. The staff was very knowledgeable and took their time to help me. The doctor was kind and very professional. It was well worth the drive and was way better than Lenscrafters or some other chain. Hands down these are the best glasses I have ever had!
