Hayden Optometric

Dr Hayden is a treat to be a patient of. He's is extremely knowledgeable and helpful. I'd never use another office.

I don't often write Google reviews--I figure everyone can have a bad day--but I feel compelled to share my experience. In the past, I really liked Hayden Optometrists. They had great equipment, and I always felt well taken care of. However, since the ownership change, I've had two disappointing experiences. First, I ordered new glasses with a new prescription. I ended up going back three times to the person who fits the glasses for adjustments, once to Hayden himself (who replaced the glasses, but it didn't solve the problem), and finally back again before the issue was resolved by replacing the lenses again. I had the same complaint each time: the prescription seemed correct, but I had to tilt my head to see clearly at a distance. Frustratingly, the person who fit the glasses even suggested it was my fault--which added to the stress of the situation. During the final visit, Hayden rechecked the prescription, and I couldn't read a single letter with my left eye. He told me that was "okay." I later learned a film had developed over that eye following cataract surgery--a relatively minor issue, but one he visibly noticed and failed to mention. Second, my husband had an annual eye exam and was told he needed drops for glaucoma. He returned for a follow-up, but no one caught that he was only using one type of drop. After his third visit, he was referred to an ophthalmologist, who immediately recognized that he should have been on two different medications. We confirmed that only one prescription had ever been called into the pharmacy--likely contributing to the worsening of his condition. I'm sharing this review in the hope that the new management reflects on these experiences and works to restore the high level of care the practice was once known for.

I've seen both doctors here, once for a routine exam and once for a corneal laceration. Both doctors are very knowledgeable, and the front desk staff are always very friendly and helpful! I'm very happy with my care received here.

I was blown away by my experience here. From the front desk being incredibly welcoming and helpful to Dr. Horton's expertise and comprehensive exam, answering all my questions, I was very happy to become a new patient here. I recommend to all who want a hassle free, patient centered care.

Consistently professional personnel and extremely knowledgeable optometrist with the latest equipment

It is always a pleasure to visit Dr Hayden and his professional staff! My wife and I have been patients for many years! Dr . Hayden is very thorough and knowledgeable and provides outstanding and personal care. I've been having some minor eye issues that were frequent enough that I thought it best to see Dr. Hayden. They were kind enough to set me up with a next-day appointment! His practice uses very modern state of the art technology. We would never consider going anywhere else for our vision care. Thank you !

I had an awesome experience at Dr. Hayden's ophthalmology practice as I have from the very first time I saw him. He is very professional along with all of his staff!! I will forever be his patient as they are all the best!! I would very much recommend him to anyone I know and don't know. He is very personable and explains everything and answers any questions or concerns you should have! I think he his truly the best, I have also have a lot of friends and family including my wife that go to him. they all fell the same way!! Once again I think Dr. Joel Hayden is the very best!

Outstanding eye doctor! I saw doctor Hayden last summer after my vision had deteriated with blurriness and floaters affecting the quality of my life in reading, working, even driving. After examining me and reviewing the digital photos of my eyes he was able to diagnose my condition and recommended a specialist to do the procedure. I had this procedure done and it worked and have clear vision back in that eye! I can't thank Dr Hayden and his outstanding team enough and highly recommend him for your eye health and vision
