Shadyside Eye Associates's Online Review Report Card

Not good IPL did nothing just a waste of money .

Such a pleasant experience, easy to schedule a routine checkup as a new patient, easy to park, kind staff, knowledgable doctor who was efficient with my time but didn't sacrifice being thorough. I last minute needed to bring my baby and everyone was INCREDIBLY chill about it – I was so worried and deeply appreciated the complete lack of fuss. Looking (ha) forward to returning next year!

I began going to this practice because I was assured that a complete exam would be done. I’d been in other places that planned to measure my vision to prescribe glasses only. I do need that, but i know that there are many serious issues that can be discovered when your pupils are dilated and a complete exam is done, so I will not accept the basic exam for glasses. This may be more important as a person ages, I’m not sure, but I have family members with serious problems that I hope to avoid (or minimize, if they do become a concern.) I’ve been very pleased with the professionalism and care that I’ve received here.

I have been to 5 different eye doctors.Dr Telega is the first Dr that is extremely knowledgeable about dry eyes she has helped me so much .I have got IPL treatments there that changed my eyes so much and all the eye products that she recommends are amazing .If you have dry eyes this is the place to go its a game changer and her staff is so friendly and helpful!!!!

Dr. Telega and her incredible office crew are truly second to none in every possible way. Not only will you receive a perfectionistic level of attention and care at this clinic, but you will also feel like family for as long as you're able to utilize their services. Despite me being a chronically difficult patient due to my keratoconus diagnosis, this lovely team refused to continue meeting my needs until everything was perfect with my eyes over the course of the 2 years I got to spend with them. If you're looking for an optometrist in the Pittsburgh area, I highly recommend taking time to schedule with SEA.

Highly recommend if you are looking for a doctor specializing in dry eye! I stumbled upon this practice in an attempt to find a dry eye specialist performing IPL nearby. Dr. Telega has helped me so much in understanding and managing my dry eye symptoms. Most people just don't understand how frustrating and painful this condition can be, how much it affects your life, and she has actual empathy and real life advice to give. She's helped me through a full round of IPL treatments and will continue to help me manage. I'm glad I found her!

I've been struggling with severe dry eye syndrome for nearly two years. Dr. Telega was the first to thoroughly explain my condition and create a comprehensive treatment plan that has finally brought me relief. Her passion for her work and extensive knowledge of the latest dry eye research are clearly evident. In just two months, my eyes feel better than they have in 2 years. If you’re dealing with dry eye, I highly recommend coming here!

Went in for a eye exam as covered by my insurance, the optometrist told me i had a 9/10 chance in developing glaucoma in an attempt to scare me so id come back for more tests. failed to tell me the tests cost me $200+ after i came back and did them. of course i thought about it for days leading up to the tests. then told me there is nothing to worry about. edit: They responded because i gave a bad review but this is 100% what they said there was no miscommunication. she looked at me and said "now i dont want to scare you since we haven't done the test but after looking at this you have a very high chance of developing Glaucoma and it looks like a 9/10 chance, please come in next week for a follow up test"

Amazing I love this office—professional, warm and friendly, with a consistently high quality of care. Dr Telega is incredible! Her expertise and thoughtful, patient-centered treatment have given me my vision back and *changed my life* Really cannot say enough good things

I felt really weird in this place. Everyone was nice enough but I’m definitely not their standard clientele. Very bougie and they wouldn’t give me my pupillary distance so I can order my own glasses online. All of their frames are designer frames. It did not feel welcoming as a queer person.
