Midwest Dry Eye Center - Long Grove

Earlier this year, I found myself grappling with persistent dryness in my eyes, especially during the night. Concerned, I heeded my local optometrist's advice and sought out a specialist, leading me to the capable hands of Dr. Cohan. From our very first meeting, I was immensely impressed. Dr. Cohan's detailed explanations, coupled with his calm and composed demeanor, assured me that I had found the right eye care professional. What further endeared him to me was his choice of footwear - the iconic 90's Jordan sneakers - and his Smart Watch, mirroring my own tech-savvy preferences, giving me insight into his work environment and his relatability to his patients. The experience with Dr. Cohan and his staff has been nothing short of exceptional. They patiently addressed all my queries, explaining complex matters in a manner that I could grasp easily. Through their guidance, I gained a profound understanding of my eyes, visualizing them as intricate piano-like keys connected to the canals of my tears. Fortunately, I sought Dr. Cohan's assistance promptly, preventing my dry eye condition from worsening. I wholeheartedly urge anyone seeking eye care to visit this facility and consult with Dr. Cohan. The clinic exudes cleanliness, the staff radiates friendliness, and most notably, Dr. Cohan takes patient care to unparalleled heights. He goes the extra mile by sharing his personal cell phone number with his patients, a gesture that epitomizes his dedication. I was astonished when he responded to my query even on his day off, promptly phoning in a prescription. Such extraordinary service compelled me to spread the word, and I couldn't be more delighted to recommend him to the world. A heartfelt thank you to Dr. Cohan and his remarkable staff. You have not only earned a loyal customer in me but also an advocate who will sing your praises far and wide. Warm regards, Gilbert.

My dry eye treatment experience was fantastic, from the time I checked in and throughout the entire process. Jenelle was a calming and gentle voice, and I also really appreciated her knowledge of the treatment. She walked me through the entire process every step of the way, and it was quick and easy. I highly recommend Dr. Cohan and his phenomenal staff, and I trust them implicitly with my eye care.

I cannot get my money back because the doctor wanted me to file the claim! I have never feel my eyes are dry. I wear contact lens all the time with no problem. For some reasons my eye doctor introduced me to Dr.Cohen. I refused $1000 treatment that insurance will not pay. So he gave me a bill for $350 due the same day. I have Medicare A & B and supplement BB G. In past 5 years, other than yearly deductible $150 - $200, I have never had any medical bills. My insurance covers everything. I don't know how to file a medical claim. I spent hours and days to learn how to file a claim. 10 months is over, I only get $167.28 from Medicare. I have never heard a doctor's office refuse to file claims for patients. If every doctor like Dr.Cohen who doesn't file claim for patients, I cannot see a doctor any more.

I had been experiencing dry eyes due to my work, which requires looking at computer screen for up to 10 hours a day when I heard about what Radio frequency treatment could do for my condition. I was informed that it could reduce inflammation around the eye and also improve my blinking rate for better tear exchange. The procedure didn't take long and Sonia made the experience quite relaxing. Most importantly, I feel a difference after just one treatment. I am looking forward to my follow up visits!

I have been wearing contact lenses for over 30 years, and I have never felt more comfortable in them. Dr. Cohan suggested Lipiflow to manage my dry eye syndrome, and the results have been unimaginable. The procedure was quick, and although definitely different, it was painless. I experienced immediate positive results. I highly recommend Dr. Cohan and his staff.

After going to four different optometrists/ophthalmologists over the last five months, I came across the Midwest Dry Eye Center website. I had previously been diagnosed with MGD, Blepharitis, and Ocular Rosacea. Finding no relief from a series of "prescribed" hot compresses, lid wipes, baby shampoo cleansing, and a variety of other ointments and drops that did nothing to alleviate my symptoms, Dr. Cohan recommended Lipiflow. Since having the treatment two weeks ago, my eyes feel ten times better! I am finally back in contacts (Dr. Cohan fitted me in the most comfortable lens I have ever worn) and I am beginning to feel like myself again. I highly recommend the Midwest Dry Eye Center for anyone who is suffering from MGD, Blepharitis, and any other symptom associated with dry eye disorder!

I can't say enough about Dr. Cohan - and his remarkable staff as well! I came to Dr. Cohan from outside of the Chicago area, after brief and miserable experiences with 6 other doctors. I have dry eye and meibomian gland issues. Dr Cohan has the diagnostics in his office, and the experience - to go down what can be a rough road for some, of dealing with these issues. He is open minded, compassionate, and eager to explore what works for you! - which can change over time, and be frustrating. Medications can cause dry eye, exacerbate it - and sometimes we can not change medications......so figuring out different strategies takes some work, patience, and devotion - to deal with what sometimes can feel like a roller coaster ride. The other 6 doctors I dealt with, were far less informed about dry eye and meibomian gland issues, didn't have any diagnostic equipment, made fun of newer strategies available - and wanted to stick with the same old same old. Dr. Cohan keeps up on the latest journal writings regarding dry eye complexities and the latest avenues of exploration in progress, and actively seeks out being able to try out and offer new techniques. Actually being able to see your setbacks and progress in the office - from examinations, photographs, and test results - is ABSOLUTELY GOLDEN! Anything less, is not worth wasting your money and time. Dr. Cohan gets excited, when he is introducing something new - and appreciates valuable feedback. Driving several hours to see Dr. Cohan, is worth the effort! The office support professionals are quite personable, likable, express concern, and respond in a timely way. Kelly, RN
