Bard Optical - Galesburg

About

Bard Optical - Vision for Life. With 75 years of experience in Central Illinois, we are here for all of your vision care needs.

Description

Bard Optical’s mission is to help our patients preserve and improve the health of their eyes. Our company motto is “Vision for Life” because our offices are family vision centers designed to provide crucial evaluations and treatments of eye health issues for patients ranging in age from 2 to 102. Selling glasses and contact lenses is secondary to developing a lifelong relationship with our patients as their eye doctors. Whether it is a child’s first eye health examination or a senior citizen who is coming back to us following cataract surgery, all of our patients are given individual attention to ensure we are able to educate them and assist them in managing the health of their eyes.

Bard Optical’s Optometrists are highly skilled doctors who diagnose diseases, remove foreign bodies, prescribe medication, fit contact lenses and evaluate the vision correction needed for each patient. Unlike doctors who work for national chains or box stores, our Optometrists have access to extended medical testing equipment to aid in the diagnosis and treatment of eye diseases. We co-manage surgical patients with outside medical doctors to provide our patients with a continuity of care.

Our staff is uniquely trained to help guide patients through important pre-testing, to assist our Optometrists in the exam lane and to dispense products, including designer eyewear and a wide variety of contact lenses.

Bard Optical’s patients are our friends and neighbors. For that reason we are committed to providing ALL patients with the same level of care they have come to expect from their family doctors.

Bard Optical…Vision for Life!

Reviews
Completely satisfied from start to finish. Austin was very thorough with his pre exam. Dr Jensen was so cool and very professional. Best I’ve ever dealt with. The girl that helped with my glasses order was very good. 100% satisfied with my visit.
Great experience! We had some scheduling mix-ups, and arrived at the wrong time, they were all very nice and accommodating. The exam was for my daughter, and they were so quick and efficient, but also made sure to explain everything well. The Doctor was very nice and did a great job! They had a good selection of frames, and my daughter was able to find some she loved. Very pleased overall, and will definitely recommend!
Ahhhh, the most reliable eyeglass and contact service Galesburg provides. Please do yourself a favor and don't go anywhere else. The Doctor, Mrs. Jensen serves her patients and works to ensure that the care that her patients receive is safe, effective, patient centered, and efficient. At the front desk you have the MOST dedicated team of Administration there is. Call, make an appointment, get in get out. Receive your new shades or prescription within 7-10 business days. Pro tip: Come in on a monday or tuesday.
Clerk super nice along with doctor and tester. They ordered tinted glasses. Took 9 days after I paid my part after insurance tried wearing them home to get use to glasses. Got extrem headache. Ad glass never did tent. Called office as soon as getting home. Was told try put them outside. Still no work.
I had a great experience with Bard Optical. These are the people who assisted me with with my glasses - Dr. Jackson, Austin, Lexie and Jasmine. The first person I saw was Austin and I really liked him very personable, then I saw the Dr. who was great, then Jasmine helped me pick out my glasses and she was excellent. I walk with a walker and and she picked out several pairs of glasses, so I didn’t have to walk around. She was very friendly and very helpful. Lexie the receptionist was also great and very helpful. I would highly recommended Bard Optical.
The whole process was good, from the exam to the fittings. Plus they came in right on estimated price.
Everyone I dealt with was nice and accommodating. Had no issues. Got new glasses and saw doctor about an eye issue.
My son had an appointment scheduled in May, due to COVID I had gotten a text saying it was cancelled, but they’d call to reschedule when they opened up. Never got a call. About a week ago I called around 10:30am, went to answering machine. Left a message which included my phone number and why I was calling. I’m still waiting for that call. I called somewhere else and they were able to schedule us for within 2 weeks of me calling. Bard was the first place I called when we moved here 4 years ago, never really felt welcomed. They seemed annoyed with my children. Will not be going back to Bard.
Waited 3 months for an eye appt. They called today to confirm and left a message for me to call back never telling me I had to call back by a certain time, so I call to confirm and am told they canceled my appt because I didn't call back by at first I was told noon then second time I called back was told because I didn't confirm by 2. Now if I want another appt I can't get in till July. Not going back, update--- the first message left was a voice-mail for someone named Karen so I would have not returned that call it being for someone else and the second message was left with my mom and she was not told for me to call before 2. Even on their own website under their policies and protocols regarding Covid19 there is nothing about confirming before a certain time when they call to confirm or they will cancel your appt
I would put zero stars but that's not an option. I have a strong prescription and I know there is not a huge selection of contacts for my eyes but i paid for a contact fitting and only received one pair of contacts to try. They say those contacts are $500 for a years supply and they refuse to get any others for me to try. I have never ever paid over $200 for a years supply before and my eyes have not changed much if at all... They won't even put me in the contacts I was wearing when I went in for my appointment which is air optics a very common brand! Never again!!
