The office and staff are amazing! Very professional, personable, and they made me feel like family at my appointment. I personally worked with Dr. Kelly and she was wonderful! She took her time to listen to me, perform her exams/tests, and walk me through how my eyes are functioning. I highly recommend this office!!

BEST OPTOMETRIST EVER!!!! I have a very unique prescription and my previous optometrist wasn’t cutting it anymore and I just happened to stumble upon this practice and I’m so happy!!! Everyone was SO NICE and professional!! From the nice people working the front desk to the eye doctor himself. I felt very secure and that they were competent. Highly recommended!!!!

Patient
As a person who struggled with visual issues since I was a child, my children’s visual health is of extreme importance. I wanted to start my children with an optometrist who could give them high quality care and find them a “vision home.” I am so happy that we found Dr. Kelly Cohen at Park Ridge Vision. She was warm and welcoming, and her exam was tailored to the needs and personalities of my children.
