My kids see Dr. Gunton. She is associated with Wills Eye and has a KoP location. We love her!! http://www.eyecareforchildren.com
Lyn M. replied:
He's not in the area, but an excellent doctor if you are willing to go to Paoli https://www.healthgrades.com/physician/dr-martin-wilson-x699 k
Kelly A. replied:
Dr Wilson is so worth the drive to Paoli. Literally the most patient human I've ever met (my oldest was an extremely difficult patient), and an excellent doc and surgeon. We went to chop KOP for a second opinion but they couldn't compare to our years of experience with Wilson. (We saw Anninger at CHOP, i can't speak for the others but he was just ok)
My local moms; anyone have a pediatric eye doctor?
Chris H. replied:
Colleen Christian in Lansdale. I have an eye condition and took Alicia to see if she has (or might) inherited it last year. She hasn't as of yet, but I really liked her and will continue to take Alicia to see her. http://www.ophthalmicassociates.com/physicians.htm

Dr Martin Wilson in Paoli, I took Kayleigh as a baby for a spot on her iris that the ped was concerned about and he was great with her! http://www.mainlinehealth.org/phy/Page.asp?PageID=PHY000281

Agree with Phoenixville Eye Care Associates
Janet G. replied:
I have a great optometrist that always gets me in right away if you're flexible on times. If you do need optho instead, Dr. Koepsell is fabulous but not sure how quickly you can get in; 610-935-1211. He's at Pawlings and Rt23 intersection. Does the most thorough exams I've ever seen. No pun intended lol.
Lisa Y. replied:
Dr. KOEPSELL is a medical eye dr. (accepts my medical insurance) and is outstanding.

Have you tried Dr Susan Wilton in Trappe? She's excellent.

We usually refer to Kremer laser eye for Opthologists, not sure about Saturday hours . Dr. Deschenes is a Optomatrist whom I work for, but we don't have Saturday hours.
I am looking for recommendations on where to take my 11 year old for practice/help with learning how to insert/remove contact lenses. We have our prescription already...
Amanda G. replied:
We use the Collegeville Eye Shop for Brynn. The lady that helped her was so patient. The first time was 45 min with no success. We came back a few days later. Half an hour later Brynn finally got it. She still struggles a bit (really small eyes and usually short on time) so I help her quite a bit. It takes a lot of practice and figuring out just the right way that works for them. Good luck!
