Worst Doctor in the world! We went to her for our child with concerns that we noticed and multiple times she dismissed it and made it as if it was just a stigmatism that would go away. So we went to get a second opinion at NYU in Manhattan and found out that she has ONH (Optic Nerve Hypoplasia) and SOD (Septo Optic Dysplasia). The other doctors say this is something she should have definitely noticed and to have dismissed it multiple times is unacceptable! Now we have a child with a serious eye disorder that we could have started treating and preparing for from early on but that’s lost time! Avoid her at all costs!

Sep 28, 2023 · Frank DiSimoneMy daughter loves Dr. Dye. She’s great. Dr. Dye is friendly, thorough, knowledgeable, and caring. My daughter is instantly at ease when she knows she’ll be seeing Dr. Dye. The office has a fairly large selection of kids glasses to choose from. They have more trendy frames to pick from, and some more practical stuff. The woman that helps you choose eyeglasses isn’t the friendliest at times, but the rest of the staff is wonderful.
Dec 10, 2018 · Amanda BradyMy son had a serious emergency eye condition and he received excellent care and attention. Dr. Pearlstein is extremely knowledgeable, so much so that she saved me $$$ and time fighting insurance for extra expensive eye medication prescribed by other doctors, medication she explained that my son didn't need. I was extremely grateful for Dr. Pearlstein to have saved me so much extra $$$, time, and effort. Instead, I was able to focus my time and attention on caring for my son. Dr. Pearlstein was also very patient in answering my many questions. The office staff was also extremely knowledgeable, courteous, and patient with my slew of questions about insurance billing. The kind efficient answers to my questions also saved me the chore of phoning my insurance company about out of pocket costs. I also phoned in a follow up question about how to use the medication, and Dr. Pearlstein promptly answered my question over the phone. It truly doesn't get any better than this.
May 07, 2015 · Celeste TamReceptionist very rude told me that my 3 year old who was born premature having eye pains and not being able to see items right infront of her face doesn’t warrant an emergency appointment
