I have been a patient at Brewer Eye Associates for 2 years, and I had such a pleasant experience at my last visit, that I just had to hop on here and give a great review! I came here after going to America's Best Contacts & Eyeglasses for over 7 years. Year after year, I would be disappointed in the service there (at the King of Prussia location). Finally, my mother introduced me to Brewer Eye Associates and raved about the newer technology and the pleasant staff. I was not disappointed! I am always attended to at the time of my appointment or even when I arrive early (no long waits!) The girls at the front desk and the one that makes the reminder phone calls are all so kind and respectful. The technicians are also very kind and always make small talk. I like that they are transparent about what my insurance covers, what fees I need to pay if I do a certain test, and they always explain the procedures to me and why they are beneficial. I had Dr. Erin Evans my first time. She is knowledgeable and thorough with conducting my exam. However, last time, I had Dr. Jacqueline Molinda. I LOVE HER! She was so relatable--we talked about everything and anything. She took my concerns into consideration and actually listened! She explained everything to me, and since I have such a high prescription, she was careful to look at everything. She also explained to me and showed me why she was not increasing my prescription and even showed the different lenses to me. She said she did not want me straining my eyes too much to see tiny things, so if it was not necessary to increase my prescription, she was not going to. She even talked me through my eye charts to show me my optic nerve. I left that office feeling reassured that I was getting the best care. I don't know if Dr. Molinda is hired full-time there, because I didn't see her name when I made an appointment for my mother the next month. Actually, I made my appointment with Dr. Evans, so maybe Dr. Molinda was just filling in for the day? I don't know, but I really hope she works there permanently, because I would totally book my next appointment with her!

What is blue light and why is it dangerous?

Blue light is part of visible light and close to UV on the light spectrum. It is naturally produced by the sun, used in fluorescent light bulbs and emitted by LED screens on computer monitors, tablets, and smartphones. The eyes’ natural filters do not block blue light and chronic exposure can cause age – related macular degeneration. Evidence also shows that blue light exposure can lead to sleep problems.
