Dr. Vishal Sharma, MD

"I went to Lakeshore for a consultation concerning cataracts in both eyes. The right eye was a lot worse than the left one, and after a detailed exam, Dr. Sharma advised me that surgery was necessary to restore my vision. I was pretty nervous about the whole thing, but within a minute of meeting Dr. Sharma, I was completely reassured that this was a safe, easy procedure. I went in for the surgery 2 days ago, and the experience was a complete breeze. Firstly, the preparation staff were great! These folks know what they're doing and seemed to really love their jobs. They all really care about their patients comfort, and were as reassuring as Dr. Sharma himself. The surgery itself was non stressful, and virtually painless. Amazingly, it only took 5 to 7 minutes to perform the procedure. I was up, and out the door within 20 minutes, feeling great, with improved vision immediately. Since then, my vision has improved tremendously. I have absolutely no ill effects, it's as if nothing ever was done, except my triple vision in my right eye is gone. I've got another appointment next Thursday with Dr. Sharma and I will make the appointment to get my left eye done then. If I could give 100 stars to Dr. Sharma and his excellent staff, from the receptionist to the surgical and preparation staff, I would. I'm thankful to my optometrist in Holland NY for referring me to Lakeshore and Dr. Sharma."

"Dr Sharma is EXCELLENT! STAFF ARE TOO!! I had cataract surgery with special lens implant to see far away and close up without glasses. I am thrilled to see this well!"

"Went there for an eye exam and glasses. I called ahead of time to make sure they take my insurance because I just moved to the area. They said they accepted it and I also found they were in my network on the website. I went for an eye exam where he because to talk to me about financing for eye surgery(I didn’t know doctors unsold you) and I declined just wanted new frames because mine broke. He then said they don’t take my insurance for frames and I would be paying out of pocket. I left pretty upset. Then a month later I get a bill for $150 for an eye exam. When I called to fight it they were rude and unhelpful. Told me that I had a refraction done and that’s why it was more(not what I asked for). They eventually sent the bill to collections where I also tried to fight it and ultimately ended up paying the fee myself. I would t recommend these scam artists to anyone!"

"When I arrived the receptionists were friendly but they were clearly not treated professionally or politely by the doctor. The appointment felt like I was pushed from one place to the next with no clear explanation of what was going on. My eyes were dilated (first time ever for me) and then I was put at a desk to pick out glasses. No mention of my prescription changing or not. I was then placed back in the bright waiting room while my eyes continued to dilate for about so minutes. After that nightmare I opted to get the glasses elsewhere. I am convinced the prescription is not accurate as I can see better with my old glasses. Go somewhere else!"

"Worst eye doctor experience ever. Horrible customer service, Optician never calls you back when he says he will, receptionists are wonderful, glasses prescribed didn't match my eye sight, cloudy in one lens, was told to fix it they would pop out the left lens and put a clear one in, arm on glasses was bowed. Optician wasn't helpful choosing glasses that looked right for me, and when I got the ones I chose he didn't make sure they were adjusted to my face/head. Brought back to have fixed, kept putting it off and never called me back, had to bounce back and forth calling the locations to locate him. After two months of being dissatisfied, I asked for a return, and they are only willing to give me 2/3 of my money back. COMPLETE NIGHTMARE AND STILL NO GLASSES, hopefully the next place I go will be a much better experience."
