Reviews of Druid Hills Eye Care
Celia Méndez
My daughter and I have both purchased glasses here and both times had a very positive experience. The optometrist is very patient and thorough, the staff is professional and sharp, and the frames expert, Juliana, is the absolute best. For example, I had two pairs of glasses from other places with broken frames. I went to both places where I originally bought them and was told that there was noting they could do for me. I brought both glasses here and Julianna found beautiful frames that would work with my old lenses. She was able to pop them into the new frames. I did buy designer frames, but the results were well worth it. I love my new glasses and did not have to shell out money for another prescription or new lenses, so I saved money in the end. Really could not be more pleased and I highly recommend this group. Great selection of frames, too, even for teens and children.

AMAZING. I had eye appointments for 3 of my children. My husband got called in, so I had to take ALL my children BY MYSELF. Including a 2 year old and my 2 month old baby. I was concerned how it would go, but I seriously have not experienced such kindness, thoughtfulness, understanding and care ANYWHERE in Atlanta. The front desk was phenomenally above and beyond. The providers were amazingly kind, skilled with children, professional, knowledgeable, and quick. I can't recommend them enough. Thank you!!!

Dr. Solomon has a great bedside manner and answers all questions. He also has a sense of humor which is a pleasant and rare find for a physician. On two occasions when I had questions outside of an office visit (once, just general information about eye wash, and a second time, an emergency) he was available by phone and called me back or texted back (saved me a trip to the ER). Very kind of him and I appreciated it tremendously. The office staff is very friendly and professional.

On New Year's Eve, the last day of one of the most challenging and heart wrenching years of my life, my cat scratched my eye in a freak accident. Feeling vulnerable and scared when my regular eye doctor was unavailable, I reached out to this practice. Dr. Solomon agreed to see me on short notice during a holiday weekend and helped treat a corneal abrasion. Dr. Solomon's kindness and the friendliness of his staff put me at ease. He went above and beyond in taking the time to answer questions and concerns, helping to prescribe affordable medication, and even making time for follow-up appointments. He's an awesome doctor and a credit to our community. Thank you sincerely!!
Tasha Humphrey
Just had my appointment. I was scheduled at 2:30 and was checked in and seen by 2:36. Amazing diverse staff and they are all extremely kind and knowledgeable. I had my new glasses by 3:36. There selections are pretty pricey but it was still a great experience.
Lara Martin
I love Druid Hills Eye Care! They take care of all my eye care issues and really go beyond for me to be happy. With a recent job change my FSA funds were going to expire and Michelle went over and above to help me get two pairs of new glasses. Seriously, have only had wonderful experiences with staff, stellar care, and always get the perfect glasses/contacts for me!
Stephanie Guess
Lovely surroundings and friendly atmosphere! So pleased to find an Optometrist here in Atlanta. I have complex corneal issues that not even glasses can correct. Thankfully, Dr. Solomon has extensive expertise and fit me with SynergEyes! I can see clearer now than I have for 20 years! What a blessing!
Pete
In store service was good but glasses were weeks late for pickup. Also the prices, even with vision insurance, didn't feel as good as some of the common online sellers I had used before. Overall okay
Jose Ramirez
Great service and friendly. Good assortment of glasses. Paid additional insurance, damaged lenses were easily exchanged for new ones.
Diane Adams
I cannot say enough that is positive about Druid Hills Eye Care. Dr. Solomon and his staff are truly dedicated to giving each patient a positive experience. I have never had to wait for an appointment, and have never waited long once I arrived for an appointment. Dr. Solomon was able to help me to cope problems from a cataract surgery done at another facility, and worked tirelessly to help me do so. His experience and knowledge are first class, and out of all the eye doctors I have seen in Atlanta, he alone, has exhibited a caring spirit--all too rare in today's busy, overwrought medical profession. I highly recommend him and his facility.
Jamie Zheng
Today was my first time at Druid Hills Eye Care and honestly, this is the first time I walked out of an optometrist's office feeling like I actually accomplished something. I was diagnosed with GPC about a year ago and there has not been a single brand of contacts that feels comfortable in my eyes. Dr. Solomon made an excellent recommendation and I finally feel like I can "see" comfortably again. He was patient and worked with me to find the best lens for my vision. I can't recommend him enough.
Ron Tester
Great doctor and staff. Very friendly and fast, very professional and efficient. Best experience I’ve ever had at an optometrist office.
James Steffen
I was very happy with my experience at Druid Hills Eye Care a few months ago. The staff was uniformly helpful, and I appreciated Dr. Ortiz's patience as took I some time to ensure that my prescription was as accurate as possible. They had a good selection of glasses in stock, and although they did not pressure me to purchase the glasses there, I was happy with the selection they had in stock and found a pair that I like. As a result, I have a new pair of progressive lenses that work really well for me, and I've gotten compliments on the new frames. I'm definitely going back!
Alison Daye
Look no further for stellar eye care in Decatur.
Dr. Solomon and his team will take such good care of you.
I had excellent service from everyone I encountered.
Most importantly, Dr. Solomon made sure that my prescription was right and that I was comfortable with it. I can’t believe the difference in my vision, my previous eye doctor at a chain eye care center didn’t take the time to correct an astigmatism in my right eye.
I’m so glad I found Druid Hills Eye Care, I see and feel better now than I have all year!
Ian Tumey
I just had my first appointment with Dr. Solomon today. He was the most efficient and helpful optometrist I've ever been too. He made sure to fit my eyes properly with the perfect contacts and prescription as I had astigmatism in both eyes that my current lenses weren't correcting for. Would highly reccomend anyone who needs an eye exam to come here. Fast, professional, and overall just a pleasure to be seen here as a patient.
Diann Batchan
I have been coming to Druid Hills Eye Care for the past two years. Dr. Katerine Ortiz and the staff have all provided me with nothing less than exceptional
care and service. Today, I picked up my glasses and my corrected vision is excellent. Before, I couldn't see words painted on a large bill board and today I can read at 8 pt (smallest print). I'm ecstatic!!!
THANKS So Much Dr. Ortiz and team!
Kat LaFever
I broke my glasses during midterms and couldn’t see my first exam! Druid Hills Eye Care got me in quickly (despite being a new patient!) and were able to get me fitted in a new pair on the same day as my exam! Juliana was so great at helping me pick a cute pair of frames, and Sean got them adjusted beautifully!
Nathan Hutcheson
Dr. Solomon is great, clinic doesn't take Cigna health insurance.
Thomas Little
This is the second year I have used this company since my insurance changed at work and I have had only good experiences. The new office is fantastic and the friendliness of the staff is exceptional. I was very pleased with the new technology and not having to get my eyes dilated for the retina exam ... VERY PLEASED! Dr. Solomon is friendly and has a distinct wittiness about him, yet he is professional at the same time. That's a good combination to have when providing services.
I actually ordered new contacts and new glasses while at the exam. The frames were easy to select and I received a call an hour after I left ... my glasses were ready! I picked them up quickly and have had no concerns..
I would highly recommend Druid Hills Eye Care to others.
Matt Woehrmann
I was recently on my way to vacation with my family, and realized 10 hours out from home that I had forgotten my contact lenses for a week long trip. I called, and though they don't keep many in stock on hand, William bent over backwards to find a solution for me and get them in an overnight that day. A couple hours went by from our first conversation, and I had lost hope, but sure enough, he called back and said it was done. It was great, personalized customer service.
I've also had a great experience with Dr. Solomon two years in a row now -- spends the time and effort to try different things and find the right solution for the slightest complaints I've had about my vision.
Their onsite technology is also excellent, so you can see the results of your eye health tests on the screen immediately.
Anthony Sweeney
I really enjoyed my visit to Druid Hills Eye Care! The doctor was super knowledgeable and attentive to any concerns I had about my vision. I was able to get an eye exam for glasses and contacts during the same appointment, as well as pick out a pair of glasses. I was happy to hear they had transition brand lenses as an option, and the whole pair was very affordable when my insurance was applied. I even came back to get a new pair of glasses with blue block lenses. I am looking forward to my next visit!
Katie Lane
TL;DR - wonderful staff, doctor and eatablishment all around.
I was fitted for contacts and had to go in for two follow ups. Each time, the staff and Doctor was incredibly nice and professional. Very patient and helpful with all my questions and concerns as a new contacts wearer. When I finally found good contacts for my astigmatism, they continued to provide exceptional customer service in helping me find a pair of glasses. They asked me what types of frames I was interested in, shape, color, style, etc. Picked out frames I might not have tried on myself. I hadn't planned on getting glasses that day, so when it came time to buy, I wanted to think it over. They continued to be patient and simply kept the frames I had chosen in their system so I could easily call back. When I finally placed my order they were ready within 3 days! Wonderful experience.
James Rowe
Professional, prompt and more technologically advanced than I expected, I’d wholeheartedly recommend Druid Hills Eye Care if you’re in need of a great doctor (and staff). From front desk reception to my detailed visit with Dr. Solomon, I felt like my appointment was important to the staff. The type and range of glasses available are good, but not quite as broad as I hoped. But, I was able to find a nice, affordable pair. If I could give six stars, I’d do it.
Daniel Shorr
I've been here a few times over the past few years and had a great experience each time. Dr. Solomon is extremely talented at zeroing in on the best eye prescriptions. I have the clearest vision with his help. Further, I much appreciated that he helped me discover an issue I had going on with my eyelids that contributed to my dry eyes. No one had ever noticed before and with the treatment he recommended, my eyes are feeling much better now. I haven't bothered writing reviews much in recent years, but felt it important to share these words this time for others' benefit. One caveat/heads up- the doctor is quite busy and hence efficient. Some might feel he is a little brusque, but I don't care because he's delivering excellent service.
Lillian Friedenthal
After seeing many doctors, I am finally able to read and see distances with my lousy eyes. Macular in right eye, thank goodness left eye is holding steady. Dr Solomon was smart, thoughtful, took his time thinking about my issues! Here is am a very very happy lady! Thank you to him and his wonderful staff. 🥰. Don’t walk, run there ! …
Kris M.
I called today to make an appointment solely based off of the google reviews I read about this place, and the customer service I received from the admin person was despicable and very rude! She definitely doesn’t know how to deal with people in a professional manner. The eye care practice should be ashamed to even have her working their front desk. She should find a job working with inanimate objects that she doesn’t have to talk to! Don’t go to this place if you value good customer service!.
Update: February 23, 2018
So I have to update this review and change it to 5 stars. My first encounter with Druid Hills Eye Care started out rocky at best, best changed dramatically within hours of me writing my first review! I first have to say Dr Solomon is an amazing Optometrist, he definitely takes pride in what he does to help people. About a hour after I wrote the review, Dr Solomon contacted me via phone and wanted to understand what went wrong with my previous called. I explained the whole thing and he sincerely apologized and addressed the issue and schedule me for an appointment same day. When I went for my appointment, Dr Solomon’s staff was nice and professional. The experience I had was much better than I could have expected. I got all my eye care needs met and had a very informative visit. I definitely recommend this eye care practice.
Kaylyn White
Dr. Solomon and his staff are amazing!!! From the moment I walked into the door it was all positive vibes and smiles! I'm very timid about eye Care and Dr. Solomon put my mind at ease. Jason was great with assisting me with picking out the right glasses for me and I'm super excited to get them! They can have your glasses done the same day!! I made my appointment online and Charmaine called to get insurance information so when I arrived they were all set and ready for me! I highly recommend Dr. Solomon and his entire team!
Nisha Melton
I just had the most Awesome visit with Dr. Solomon!!!!! I cannot believe how far off my last prescription contacts were😩😩😫. With these new contacts my vision is so much clearer. He was very thorough and helped me understand my issue. This was by far the best eye visit I have ever had. And not to mention the staff was amazing. I’m so happy‼️
Christopher Sommerfield
I have worn glasses for 30 years and have been to a multitude of eye doctors, Dr. Solomon is the most professional and informative optometrist I have encountered. He identified an astigmatism I have had for years and so many other doctors missed with their diagnosis. This identification clarified my vision to a place it has never been before. He explained the process and what was happening with my eyes. Dr. Solomon exudes confidence and put me at ease. I will be back soon.
Carolyn Landress
If you are a senior citizen who needs an eye exam and glasses I can recommend Druid Hills Eye Care. It is a well managed office and all the staff took every precaution against Covid 19. Dr. Solomon took all the necessary time to check out my vision and get the best prescription for me. My time picking out frames with Christopher was delightful. He was so helpful and knew just what would look best on me. So glad I came here.
Aman Mohel
Dr. Solomon is very friendly and professional. He sure does makes sure to provide the best treatment you need by taking the necessary time by checking the vision and provide a prescription. His staff is also very helpful and friendly. During my recent visit I found all the Covid protocols were enforced including maintaining safe distance. I’ld definitely recommend him and his staff to my family and friends for any optical needs.
Jennifer Butz
Very nice and professional. I was able to receive my glasses for less than $200 but they weren't the polycarbonate lenses and they are fine. The glasses are comfortable, the staff is very nice, they were even able to do a field test for glaucoma for me. He took his time with me on both occasions and thoroughly explained everything and he even showed me a picture of my optical nerve/eyeballs. They say your glasses will take 2 weeks, mine were back within 3 days. So their lab is very efficient and very good.
Ariel Zhang
I rely a lot on other people's reviews so I think it's time to give back and write a review myself. I had a great experience with this facility and Dr Solomon. I called yesterday and the receptionist was so nice and got me a next day appointment at lunch time. The doctor spent almost an hour with me, did a very thorough examination (the most thorough examination ever). I read some reviews about the doctor's "bed side manner" and was a little concerned. Actually the doctor was so nice, pleasant, considerate and efficient. I can see better with these new contact lenses already. This place is going to be my "go-to" eye doctor going forward for sure. I'll recommend it to everyone.
Christina Brow
The staff was very friendly and prompt. I didn’t spend a lot of time waiting to be seen. My exam was quick and thorough, and they were very knowledgeable of my my insurance benefits. If you want an eye doctor that is efficient and thorough, I would recommend being seen here!
Lauren VanCamp
I love the staff at North Druid Hills Eye Care. Everyone is friendly and very accommodating. My appointments are quick with no long wait times. Dr. Solomon is personable and explains everything that is going on with my eyes. He recommends the best contacts and procedures to keep my eyes in good health. Great office!
Amina Dawn Williams
Dr Solomon is amazing I have keratoconus and he is the only doctor that ever listened to me about my condition and helped me get the best hard contact lenses for me. He is friendly, knowledgeable, and very supportive. If you are looking for a great OD then choose Druid Hills Eye Care Inc.
K P
I highly recommend Dr. Solomon and the staff at Druid Hills Eye Care. I went into my appointment with very low expectations, resigned to the idea that I might have to switch out of contacts to see well again. But Dr. Solomon was determined to correct my vision both up close and far away, with contacts. And he did! I hesitate to throw around the word “miraculous,” but it does seem pretty miraculous to me! I am thrilled to be in a pair of comfortable contacts that allow me to both drive and read up close. It is unusual for a visit to the eye doctor to end with good news for me, but thanks to Dr. Solomon and the friendly staff at Druid Hills Eye Care, it did.
Lisa Spivack
I needed a new eye doctor and I found a great one right near my neighborhood. Dr. Solomon is professional, friendly, prompt and helped me get the correct contacts. His staff is knowledgeable with insurance, very organized and really made it so easy to go to a new doctor. I recommend Dr. Solomon and his staff.
Eric
I've been going there for many years, so is my wife and daughter. Got contact lenses for first time this week. Dr. Solomon and staff were super helpful and patient showing me how to put them in and remove them. Dr. Solomon even came back after hours and opened the clinic to help me out with with one contact lens that stuck in corner of my eye.
Gleb Alikhver
Absolutely fantastic service. Dr. Solomon was very caring. He helped me pick out what was eight for my eyes and even helped teach me how to use contacts. 10/10, would definitely recommend.
Tanya Steckel
I would totally recommend Druid Eye Care to everyone. Very organized office with super friendly staff, lots of equipment for any kind of diagnostic of any problem. They're able to make an appointment really soon for me to be seen. It's a two doctor practice that can accommodate any schedule. Even though I don't need glasses yet and came to see the doctor for dry eye symptoms and recurring styes I saw that they have incredibly large selection of frames or pretty much any designer line and any style. Professional opticians on staff are ready to help you pick something that matches your style and needs. I watched other customers being helped with the selection of glasses.
Dr. Solomon treated my dry eyes very well. The styes are finally gone and my eyes are not burning or itching any longer. The best part for me personally was alternative treatment I was able to ask for. Dr. Solomon took the time to explain the benefits of conventional medicine and after I declined everything and asked for alternative natural way he was able to offer me a treatment plan. I took the supplements he recommended and now my eyes are completely healed! I'm very thankful to Dr. Solomon for taking extra time and accommodating my special request. He is a very knowledgeable, professional and educated doctor that cares a lot about his patients. I would recommend Druid Eye Care to anyone.
Caroline Harris
I really enjoyed the staff and Dr. Solomon! The pricing was a bit much as i picked out frames then was not even asked about what type of lenses, anti reflective coating,or any of the additions. I was just told a price of over $500 for the visit ( this did include contacts, fitting, the exam and glasses with pretty good insurance). only when i questioned why it was so high was i asked what i wanted for the lenses of the glasses. Only the anti reflective was offered as an option to lower from the highest priced it could have been. It brought it down a little. I will not be returning due to this experience. As a customer i would love to be asked what i want and show prices before the highest priced additions are added without my knowledge or consent to create the high total bill. Dr. Solomon was great and the front office staff was great as well. I will get my glasses and contacts and then take my money to another doctor/eye care facility.
Katrina Stewart
I have been a patient here for 5+years, Dr. Solomon and his staff are the best knowledgeable in there expertise . Fashionable frames and lenses availability for all budgets. He is also updated with the latest technology for vision correction with patients who suffer from cornea disorders,astigmatism ,etc.. I highly recommend you make an appointment TODAY with Druid Hills Eye Care!
Jackie E
Dr. Solomon is amazing at what he does! Very professional office and staff. Clean facilities, superior experience and care every time. I have a complicated eye disorder (Kerataconus) that not many typical optometrists can diagnose and treat. Dr. Solomon is extremely passionate about his work, and he is serious about his patients. I have been a patient of his office on and off for 3 years now (since I’ve lived in Atlanta). I have tried other optometrists but have always found my way back to DHEC! He is truly the best at what he does and it shows in his work. He has given me the gift of sight AGAIN, and that to me is priceless! Thank you Druid Hills Eye Care for everything you do!
Savannah
As someone with horrific vision, a trip to the eye doctor is usually an embarrassing nightmare for me. Coming to Atlanta and finding Dr. Solomon's office was one of the best things I've done for my eye health and for peace of mind. He is both patient and kind, and his staff is knowledgeable--all of them are so sweet, even when I'm waltzing around the office blind as a bat with my contacts out. Whether you're new to the area or struggling to find a doctor that caters to your level of vision loss (like me), you definitely can't go wrong here.
Leonard Peruski
Simply put, for eye care go to Druid Hills Eye Care. Fantastic staff throughout the practice. Excellent modern technology combined with outstanding clinical practice. Dr Grigoriy Solomon is excellent - personable, knowledgeable and patient. He and his staff explained what they were doing, why it was being done, and then explained the findings and recommendations clearly.
Sarah K
I just had my first visit with them. The doctor spent a lot of time working with different lenses and fits to find my exact prescription. Adjusted and then readjusted until my vision was 100 % clear. She was really friendly and knowledgeable too. The whole office staff was though. It was the best eye appointment experience I ever had.
Cade Woodcock
I went to Druid Hills Eyecare to get a new pair of glasses, and i had an exceptional experience. I was able to find the glasses I wanted quickly, and the customer service was incredible. One employee in particular, Wynne, set everything up for me and was personable and helpful. He provided my glasses in a single day. I highly recommend this establishment.
Letitia Harris
Excellent customer service from Ben. The whole staff was very welcoming and friendly. My overall experience was very satisfying and I highly recommend them for your eye care needs.
Rough Rider
In a word: Superlative. Doctor Solomon is spectacularly skilled and very attentive. Unlike other big-name opticians, he did not try to force me into a 'new contact lens' that ended up hurting my eyes (temporarily, thankfully) but made sure my lenses were perfect for me. Every step of the way he took extra time with me, making sure the glasses and contacts I chose were perfect for me. His staff is extremely good, knowledgeable, friendly and skilled (and kinda cute, too) lol.... The experience I had -- and I am an exacting customer -- was simply the very best experience I have ever had at an opticians. My eyes have found a home for life.
Matt Nixon
They're the best around. Great service and selection of frames. The staff--Shawn and Michelle, especially--we're extremely helpful and offered great guidance in selecting my new frames and lenses.

I can't praise this place, Dr Solomon and Dr Shah enough!! I have advanced quite keratoconus and have been suffering with extremely poor vision (couldn't drive or work), and constant infections from poor fitting scleral lenses. I was so frustrated and not very optimistic, but it all changed when I came here. Dr Solomon was so thorough and diligent and did not stop until I got the best vision possible (my husband says Dr Solomon is a vigorous problem solver who doesn't quit until his patient gets optimal results!) I was fitted for scleral lenses steep enough for my cornea, and I was so pleasantly surprised!!! I used to have minor issues with previous lenses that I just got used to but Dr. Solomon made sure that not only did I have great vision but followed up with me to make sure that I didn't settle for less than the best results possible. I had an eye emergency once and even though Dr Solomon was out of town, he took my call and asked Dr Shah to come in at 10 pm to assist me. That is the kind of personalized care that you get here. Even though I've been wearing RGP and scleral lenses for 7 years I had been using the wrong techniques and products for insertion/removal which were irritating my eyes, but Dr Solomon made sure I was re-educated on proper scleral lense maintenance and watched to make sure I was doing everything correctly.
Lastly, Dr Solomon assisted me with my insurance, which allowed for my lenses to be fully covered. I am extremely pleased with my experience here, and highly recommend it to all my fellow keratoconus sufferers! :)
Deven Rudy
Great service! They are very personable while being quick as well. Went home with contacts the same day. A week later I had ripped one and really needed it, they hooked me up! They are easy to reach and easy to schedule with.
Andrew Huddleston
Had my 2nd checkup here this morning and it was another fantastic experience. Everyone was very kind and professional. Shawn helped me pick out a new pair of glasses and he absolutely killed it.
Lisa Walker
My last pair of glasses I purchased from a major retailer and they were awful and I couldn't see very well with them. Dr. Solomon looked over those and told me he knew exactly what I needed. He was right on. These are the best glasses I have ever purchased. I have been wearing glasses a long time. I can see clearly, I can see at night when driving and my no line bifocals actually work. I used to have to take my glasses off to read even when my last pair had no lines.
I won't be going anywhere else for my glasses for now on.
Angie Mathews
The doctor was very helpful, thorough and informative. He took his time to get the correct prescription for me. I have very poor eyesight. At first I did not like feeling forced to see an optician to assist me in choosing glasses at their facility; but she did NOT pressure me. I would prefer the doctor hand my prescription to me; not to the optician. But that's just a personal preference. I had a very difficult time finding frames that I liked. The optician was very patient and helpful. There is a camera which will take a picture of you wearing the frames - its awesome because they acknowledge that we cannot see! So this allows you to put your glasses back on and actually see how you look in the frames! Thanks. When I informed the optician that I needed time to think about a pair of expensive designer glasses that she suggested for me, she kindly offered to give me the total cost and reminded me of the dollar amount that my insurance would discount. She also gave me a copy of my prescription :) Because of her attentiveness, kindness and understanding, I decided to purchase the lenses that she suggested. I need to wear a larger frame because of my poor eyesight :( I was glad to have the support as I chose glasses. I would suggest a larger selection of frames. I am the type of person who doesn't need/want designer frames. My lenses cost so much so, I would prefer less expensive frames. Overall- a great experience. If you are someone like me who needs new glasses, you'll understand my excitement because it is such a relief to be able to see. I am still a little nervous about my frames because I did not love them, but I am trusting the optician and hoping for the best.
Liz Schultz
OK, really, this place is awesome. Dr. Solomon spent about an hour with me on the first visit, discussing the possible contacts options for my aging/ changing eyes -- and there were quite a few options, each one to meet a different combination of needs. He actually offered to start with the "best," or start with the cheapest and work my way up if it did not work. We agreed on starting with the lower cost option as he felt it had a good chance of working out, and scheduled a free follow up the next week. He expected me to want to change something, and I did - but just a little adjustment in the farsightedness power in one eye did the trick. Still, I am sent home with both options just to make sure I am happy, then the lenses will be shipped to my home in a few days. I have tried bifocal type lenses before but the doc associated with JCP in my old town just handed me a few pairs and said "try these". I was so confused I was sure they did not work and gave up. Dr. S said he would find the right system for me, and took such care adjusting the prescription just so, that I found they actually DO work -- they just take a lot more time to fit properly. It costs more to do it right - the fitting fee is extra and may be more than with the high volume companies, which I have always used, but totally worth it. And he takes time to dilate the eyes to look inside for eye health.
On to glasses - the ladies were so helpful and so complimentary that I felt like a queen. And did not question their decision/ suggestion. Maybe I should have taken a more active part in selecting frames, but this was so easy and fun!
Not happy with YOUR lenses or glasses? These folks will get it right or make it right!
Katy Kozee
I had LASIK surgery a few years ago that unfortunately didn't quite take. Dr. Solomon was the only eye dr. who even tried to fit me with contacts and took several visits to make sure I had the right pair that gave me the best comfort and vision. Everyone there is very nice and the hours are convenient.
Colten Neath
I have not had a better optometrist experience than this one. Friendly staff and Dr. Solomon is so helpful and obviously loves his work. He clearly takes pride in what he does and finding you the best options for your vision. Couldn’t recommend going here enough.
David Baker
Just went in today for the first time with no insurance to my name. They were very professional and upfront about price and procedure. Very fair pricing!! Dr. Henderson was great, incredibly knowledgeable about everything! Beautiful and clean office and very friendly staff all over. I will be returning here anytime I need professional eye care. Thank you Druid Hills Eye Care! You saved my eye! I would recommend them to anyone.
Kevin Patrick
It’s always a pleasure having a check-up with Dr. Solomon and his staff. They are so courteous, professional, and efficient. I really appreciate that they don’t keep me waiting for an appointment. :-) They have also done a great job with safety precautions with all that is going on these days. I would highly recommend them (and would give them 10 stars if I could). Thanks for all you Dr. Solomon!!!

*Update from Experience Below: Dr. Grigoriy personally reached out to me regarding my situation outlined below within an hour of my visit. He was very attentive and quick to remediate the situation and ensuring that such a situation does not happen in the future for any patients. I cannot express how appreciative I am in Dr. Grigoriy 's efforts in remediating my poor experience below, I certainly will be back and intend to thank him in person.
The front desk staff at this provider is incompetent. I went in for my annual eye exam and scheduled a follow up exam which was confirmed by the front desk staff. The follow up appointment ended up being rescheduled due to a power outage from storms -- fine, totally understandable. Still went in to pick up my contacts that day and to reschedule. All went well and rescheduled the follow up. So, today when I went in, the day I rescheduled to, they told me they did not have me on the schedule. There was no solution to try to accommodate me despite this being their own wrongdoing and the front desk staff was rather rude regarding the matter. I had taken off specifically from my job to attend this appointment and just ended up wasting my time. Switching providers immediately.

It was my first time there and I was very impressed with the staff and the atmosphere! From the front door desk lady (forgot her name :( ) she has on glasses that I want...to the lady that walked me back, they're all awesome! Dr. Grigoriy Solomon took his time with my eyes to make sure I was getting the right prescription. One guy that stood out to me the most "Wynne" is his name...he really took the time to help me find the best frame fit for my face. He was extremely patient with me because I am very picky and it took me forever to find the fit I wanted. So thank you staff for making me feel welcomed as I will surely be making this place a home for my eyes! 👀👀👀❤

This is one of the best optometry practices in Atlanta. A large selection of designer eye wear, great staff, beautiful office, and awesome doctors! Dr. Jinen Shah really takes his time to understand his patients, gets to know them, and recommends a treatment that suits them best. Would definitely recommend him!

Dr Solomon and Team are diligent . I'm having Ortho-K(night-care) treatment and the results are phenomenal.I am glad that my vision is back to a stable condition. Can see the surrounding without the need to wear spectacles or lenses during day and while at night i just pop-in the night care(Ortho-K) lenses and have a good night sleep.The Ortho-K reshapes your cornea at night and provides you with a better vision during the day. Before finding them, I had called most of the optometrists in Altanta and trust me they donot have any clue about orthokeratology. I am highly pleased that Helen from front desk had a good knowledge on ortho-k and walked me through the service. She is a gem and highly professional.

In 2018 i was experiencing swelling, redness, and extreme pain in my left eye. My first instinct was to go to a Minute Clinic since most doctors offices were closed. I was seen by the nurse who advised me i had “Pink Eye”
Thinking my problem was solved, i began the medication that was ordered. A few days later my eye was worse so i went to a Urgent Care next to my house. I was told again it was “Pink Eye” and prescribed additional medication which included steroids for my eye.
I allowed a few days to pass and realized there was a problem with my vision and the pain had increased. I immediately located Dr. Solomon at Druid Hills Eye Care.
During my examination Dr. Soloman throughly explained each step he was taking and discovered in fact i had developed Herpes Simplex B in my left eye and not Pink Eye. Dr Soloman reviewed the medication i was prescribed and immediately told me to stop taking.
Dr. Soloman began treatment with different medication and numerous follow ups to ensure my treatment was progressing in the right direction.
Dr. Soloman even referred me to a cornea specialist to ensure everything and anything involving my eye was addressed.
Once i was seeing the specialist, they told me Dr. Soloman was absolutely correct with his diagnosis. The scares part was sitting in the examination chair and being told I could have lost my eye site due to his.
Now fast forward to 02-21-20. Today i saw Dr. Soloman for my eye exam and prescription eyewear.
After the examination and new eye wear i was seeing 20/15.
Dr. Soloman not only saved my vision in my left eye he has my vision at 20/15.
If anyone is looking for a doctor that will go the extra mile, Dr. Soloman is your doctor. Words can’t express how grateful i am to Dr. Soloman.
Sincerely
Bobby

Dr. Solomon and staff are wonderful. They make the whole experience simple and easy. I love the fact that every time I go Dr. Solomon remembers personal things about me and spends time to get to know me a person and truly cares about my eyes.

This is a great place to go get high quality customer service and care for your eyes! Ask for Sean! He was amazing. Warm and very welcoming. I so appreciated his assistance so much. But if I tell the truth, everyone was great! This is my new go to in my new hometown. You won't regret the visit.
january holmes
Dr. Solomon is a really good eye doctor but every year I visit it seems he pushes his products/in-house optometry store a little harder, which I find super annoying, especially when I don't ask about it. I have no desire to buy glasses there.
Matthew Wann
I can't say enough good things about my experience here. Everyone from the front desk through the doctor was great! I came here because I felt my last eye appointment elsewhere was rushed and not real thorough, and I was definitely not disappointed. The doctor here took the time to make sure my prescription was right and thoroughly answered all my questions. This office definitely has my business moving forward
Spencer Baron
Great Staff, timely and professional. Dr. Solomon is awesome; great education. Wouldn't hesitate to send friends or family.

Druid Hills Eye Care has been the best facility i have ever gone to when it comes to detailed eye exams and frame selections. I have been going here for several years . I had progressives before coming to Druid Hills facility when my insurance changed and the prescription was not working for me at all from my old eye doctor. Lucky for me i was forced to find a new eye car facility when i got a new job and i ended up at Druid Hills eye care and now have the best corrected vision ive had in a long time. I cant say enough good things about the staff and service. I also like how the Doctor stays current with the technology for eye exams. They even have an imac that the exams are done on in the office and more sophisticated equipment to view your eyes so you dont have to get your eyes dilated anymore ....thank goodness! I cant say enough good comments about this place.

I relied heavily on the reviews while searching for an eye doctor. I had the great experience that I read about. Dr. Henderson was great and very knowledgeable. If you are looking for an eye doctor, this is a good place. The ease of making an appointment is great as well.
kpokorski
Exceeded every expectation from the technicians and Dr. Solomon to the state of the art eye examining equipment. The staff cares about quality and I couldn't be happier with my results. I highly recommend Druid Hills Eyecare.
Warren Murray
Same day appointment. Ophthalmic Technician was extremely knowledgeable and helpful. Doctor Henderson walked me thru all I needed. Pricing for frames, lenses and many of the other things was a little pricey, but I enjoyed their attention to detail.
Michael D Friedman
Dr. Solomon was the only eye doctor that actually diagnosed my eye condition and tried to solve for it. Other eye clinics just kept trying to up me to a stronger prescription, but never addressed the issue. Dr. Solomon actually worked with me to find contacts that would solve my problem and actually fit me comfortably.
tony barrs
If you are looking for the best eye care in the World please look no further than Dr.Solomon. Dr. Solomon is the ultimate professional and takes pride in providing the best care for all of his patients, he has personally help restore my vision to near 20/20 when thought it was impossible.
James Johnson
I would recommend anyone who has Keratoconus to visit Druid Hills Eyecare. I didn’t get much knowledge on my condition with my previous eye doctor so I did some research and found them in yelp. The staff was very nice and Dr. Solomon broke down my condition in a way I can understand it. I’ve already started recommending them to people I know!
Kal Miller
I like Dr. Solomon, but just experienced terrible customer service from the ladies at the front desk. I recently ordered a month supply of contacts over the phone and because I’m going on vacation, the woman helping me said I could also have trials and they would be waiting with my order. There were no trials with the order, and instead of grabbing some, they both questioned why I needed trials since I just ordered a month supply... I’m going to the beach, if I get salt water, sand etc. I wanted to be prepared but didn’t feel I needed to explain to them since it seemed like such an issue. Also, they were offered to me over the phone... One of them had THE nastiest look on her face, eye brows raised, and made me feel like I was taking something from them or putting them out. I’ll be looking for a new eye Dr. Customer service is huge.
Halley Blythe
Excellent service. Admin team helped me investigate my insurance. Friendly assistants in the office. Appointment started on time.

Making an appointment is SO easy -- you can do it online. Staff is very friendly as well as the Dr. who knows his stuff. Great place with a great selection in frames. Very quick turn-around time -- I got my glasses much sooner than expected.
Jenna Zargon
The office is very attractive and the people were very attentive and helpful.
And parking was a breeze.
The tech and the Doctor both explain what and why they were doing what they were doing.
We got to see my eyes without dilation.
I will definitely be back for my yearly check ups.
Jasmine Stevenson

I've been going to Dr. Solomon for eye check-ups ever since I was 11 years old. He recently recommended that I undergo LASIK surgery, and it turned out to be one of the best decisions in my life. Dr. Solomon did all the screening procedures before the surgery, and I keep on coming back for my routine check-ups. I highly recommend Druid Hills Eye Care to anyone looking for a professional and caring eye doctor.
