Charmaine is great with my daughter and can always make her laugh. She is very skilled in finding the perfect glasses and fit! Everyone who works there is very patient with children; which is awesome! The new office is beautiful and in a very convenient location. I would definitely recommend Virginia Pediatric Eye Care Center!

They were very friendly right from the moment I walked in. Each nurse and doctor took their time with my daughter and explained what they were doing to help her feel more comfortable. The doctor who fitted my daughter for her glasses took her time she also recommended what she thought would be best for my daughter. She waited while my three year old picked her frames and the color. Overall very pleasurable experience I’ll recommend to my friends with children.

When picking out glasses staff was super helpful & knowledgable about what my plan will cover etc. even the checkout staff member was so helpful & friendly. From start to finish this is a wonderful pediatric vision office! I highly recommend it!
