Children grow up fast. Every day, they learn and change-and that includes their eyes. Vision and eye development change a lot in early childhood. From hand-eye coordination to reading skills, so much is dependent on your child's eye health. While a general health checkup by a family doctor or pediatrician is good for your child's overall health, booking a children's eye exam can tell you more about your child's eye health. After the first thorough eye exam, it's important to schedule periodic exams to protect your children's vision and eye development.
Living with diabetes can affect your health in many ways, including your ocular health. The American Diabetes Association (ADA) recommends annual diabetic eye exams to help maintain your vision and prevent ocular problems. Booking an appointment to assess your ocular health is one step you can take to protect your ocular health.

Been going to see Dr. Baley and Daniel Island Eye care for many years now. Booking appointments is easy. The front desk and sales staff are all kind. The doctors and nurse/techs have great bedside manner, listen well, don't rush the patient, are up to date on technology and methodologies, and are very through. They ask permission and estimate costs before running exams that may not be fully covered by insurance. Dr. Baley even successfully diagnosed a rare condition super early by going above and beyond with a year over year comparison study of previous test results to look for differences.

When shopping for glasses and frames, they don't push you towards expensive ones, but rather focus on function, fit, and form. They provide free maintenance on their products and clear up issues under warranty quickly and without complaint. Great service all around.

I never leave reviews but this place is awesome! It's my first time getting glasses and everyone was very sweet and helpful! I called and booked an appointment in the same day which I was not expecting. I loved the positive attitude of everyone I encountered and the welcoming environment all around! Thank you guys again so much! Can't wait to get my first pair of glasses

Made appts. for both my wife and I. Was told they would verify our vision insurance plan before appt. Between the call and the first appt. we heard nothing back from them. Wife arrived to her appt. and they refused her due to the plan. No call beforehand to cancel appt. Staff was apparently too lazy to verify the insurance beforehand. Would not recommend based on our experience.

I have never written a Google review, but DIEC absolutely deserves the praise. The entire staff has been remarkably kind and capable every time I've gone in there over the last 5 years. Just today, Anne Lauren and Crystal remained at the office for nearly an hour after closing time (on a Friday!) to allow me to pick my way through traffic and grab some eagerly awaited prescription shades.

And this isn't the first or second time that the staff there has gone above and beyond. The employees are second to none. The office space is second to none. The location is second to none. As long as they're around, they have a customer in me. Thanks, ya'll!

Everyone at this office has been wonderful. Put off getting a new eye doctor after moving states because it's just so hard to find reliable/honest and caring people but wow did I get lucky choosing island eye care. The interactions with the staff have been above and beyond anything that was expected. Kyle in particular has been great to deal with and has gone above and beyond on more than one occasion. 10/10 recommend

We had a great first experience at Daniel Island Eye Care! Dr. Baley and the entire staff were very professional and we are so excited to have found such a great place to go! Their technology is cutting-edge and it makes going to the eye doctor so enjoyable! Highly recommend!

Outstanding experience! It is always unnerving to go to a new office with having poor vision; however, the staff at this office is professional, courteous, and understanding. Everyone when out of their way to be accommodating and Rebecca took an exceeding amount of time to be certain that I had the best possible prescription for my contact lens, and glasses! Exemplary service! Highly recommend!

My unbelievable experience with Island Eye Care. My history with Island Eye Care has been extraordinary. My 6 month old daughter was diagnosed with a serious optic nerve issue by Storm Eye Institute. Overwhelmed with concern and fear, I thought it would be a good idea to get a second opinion. After conducting robust research trying to find the most experienced doctor for my daughter, I made an appointment with Dr. Turner at Island Eye Care. Dr. Turner evaluated my daughter with incredible technology, experience and care, and his diagnosis was totally different (and hopeful) for my little girl.

He explained that her condition was something that we could manage, we just needed to get her in glasses at an early age to help strengthen her optic nerves and help her see normally. Fast forward 9 YEARS and we returned for our annual visit. At the end of my daughter's exam, Dr. Turner looked at me and told me that my daughter (shockingly) had 20/20 vision.

It turns out that because Dr. Turner knew to put my daughter in glasses at such a young age, her vision would gradually improve. He never told me 20/20 was even possible, but only with the intent to under promise and over deliver. He over delivered. Island Eye Care, thank you for taking such wonderful care of our little girl. We will be your patients as long as you will have us!

Wow everyone who works here is so wonderful. I had a great surprisingly fun time at the eye doctor! Dr Bailey is lovely and smart and made so comfortable. Oh and they use a machine that replaces the dilation so you don't have to do eye dilation. Very nice facility overall and they followed covid precautions well!

Excellent customer service! Kyle and the whole staff were great throughout the whole process of the exam and eyeglass fitting. Even going above and beyond to ship my glasses across the country while visiting family.

After hearing how nice this place is from my sister and brother in law, I decided to become a patient myself after my old optimist retired. I was thoroughly impressed with everything my first visit. Having now been here three times over as many years, everyone is always so professional and patient and all their medical equipment is cutting edge. Their new office building is very contemporary and bright. I highly recommend coming here and seeing Dr. Bailey (or Dr. Turner) for your vision health.

Incredibly friendly, knowledgeable staff! Had an eye irritation that my nurse practitioner elsewhere was worried was something more significant than pink eye. Dr. Bailey Petersen and her staff were so quick to squeeze me in last minute and do a more thorough assessment of the issue. They were incredibly nice/professional and I definitely won't be going anywhere else from here on out!

Ordered two new pair of reading glasses. Prompt, fair service. Also, just before picking up the new glasses, my right eye developed some irritation and redness. They worked my right in and diagnosed the problem. Great people who provide outstanding customer service.

The staff here are very rude and insensitive. The wait time for an appointment is very extensive and inconvenient. When I arrived for my 2 month out appointment, I was looked down upon because I did not have a medical insurance card. My medical plan offers a Iphone wallet app, so I don't carry it with me. I was rushed through my paperwork and into a room where I was nearly scammed into a non insurance covered procedure. Thankfully I knew better and opted not to partake.

I was advised that it was required as part of the exam so I gladly left elsewhere so I did not have to spend extra money for nothing. Very well worth a trip off Daniel Island to get better care elsewhere!

Dr. Turner is quite possibly the nicest doctor I've ever had the pleasure of meeting with. He was beyond fantastic in dealing with our energetic one year old, extremely reassuring and provided enough information to put our minds at ease. Our family will absolutely be going back to see him. The office staff was amazing too! Thank you Island Eye Care!

Love this place. Been going for over 6 years and always have a great experience. On top of them always being very prompt, they are also friendly and knowledgeable. Recently I took my 5 year son in and I cannot say enough good things about how comfortable they made him and how awesome his first eye appointment experience was. They helped him feel at ease and explained everything they were doing and checking.

If this wasn't enough, they took the extra time to review my medical insurance to find as many benefits as possible to help with the exam and frames. If you need an eye doctor look no further!

Great working with these talented professionals. First contact was via phone for an appointment scheduling, handled quickly and efficiently. When I arrived for my appointment I was greeted warmly, wait was minimal. The doctor came and escorted me to the different exam stations and explained the results of each test. I chose to get eye glasses and that experience was great too. I will continue to use them for my regular eye exams.

Would definitely recommend this place to anyone. Staff is very friendly and helpful, and it's very easy to set up appointments online without having to call when they are open. The optometrists are great, and provide a positive experience.

They are the best! I love this office! They all go out of their way to ensure that your contacts/glasses are working best for me. The patience they have for those new to contacts is amazing!

Dr. Turner has been a great eye doctor for both my Wife and I. Their staff are extremely helpful and handle the insurance without any issues. Their eyeglass frame selection is quite good for a small shop.
