A little kindness, a lasting impression. Here’s what our customers say about us on Google, in their own words.
Jamie North
Posted on Google★★★★★Always a great experience in the past 5 years that we have been going. We get a professional, complete eye exam there yearly and buy our RX glasses there. ALWAYS a good experience with all staff. They do lots of in-house services in their on-premise lab.
Julie Williams
Posted on Google★★★★★Wow!!!!! The customer service was out of this world! When I walked in the door, I was immediately greeted and waited on. There were others also in the building that were being waited on as well. I felt I was important, listened to, and understood. My glasses are beautiful and well constructed! I will not go anywhere else and I will tell all my neighbors and friends in the south villages!!! Thank you☺️☺️☺️☺️

Posted on Google★★★★★Emily was amazing! She met us at the door and fixed 3 pair of glasses with a smile. We love it here and will be back. I will be switching my doctor to Dr. Russell for my next visit and they have 2 new customers!!
Stacy Schleman
Posted on Google★★★★★Wonderful experience! Staff was pleasant and helpful. I know I’ll get the highest quality care consistently. Fun fact: they haven’t increased their prices in 20 years! Highly recommend. Nuff said.
Sue Abbott
Posted on Google★★★★★Incredibly efficient and well organized. I just needed prescription sunglasses from my out of state doctor’s visit earlier in the year. I had them in just over an hour at a very reasonable price. I would recommend Hindsight to anyone.
Andrea Jacobs
Posted on Google★★★★★I am thrilled with my new glasses from HindSight in Pinellas plaza. From the walk in greeting, the eye exam and personal touch with picking the right features to order, they were wonderful!
Alice Myers
Posted on Google★★★★★At the suggestion of a neighbor, I stopped in hoping to get my glasses fixed. Even though they were purchased elsewhere and the repair was more involved than we initially thought, they persevered and got me back in business quickly. The staff was very friendly & professional. I will be back!

Larry Understein
Posted on Google★★★★★Hadn’t had an eye exam for four years and also needed updating for my reading glasses. Hindsight offered a quick appointment and the most thorough eye exam I have ever had. Thank you. Excellent communication and informed explanation of test results. Quick replacement of lenses too, using my existing frames. Couldn’t ask for more.
Anneda Sohalski
Posted on Google★★★★★I dealt with a wonderful person named Ladonna. I was not satisfied with the glasses I purchased and she was so patient with me until I was completely satisfied. I had to purchase another pair and she was so kind and helpful and above all patient with me. I highly recommend Hindsight and especially Ladonna.
Ali Issa
Posted on Google★★★★★I work in I.T. and had difficulty looking at my computer monitor. I went to Hind Sight Eye Care for their expertise. I left with two different pairs of glasses; one for vision and a great pair of Oakleys. The staff is very knowledgeable in all fields of Eye Care and were patient and thoughtful. I’m never going anywhere else except Hind Sight Eye Care!

Posted on Google★★★★★I stopped in to get my glasses repaired after calling around to several other places, and I’m so glad I did. Mohamed was absolutely amazing — professional, friendly, and incredibly fast! From now on, I’ll proudly be one of their loyal customers. 👓🙌
Alfred Monterio
Posted on Google★★★★★Fantastic service by Dr Russell. I got an appointment within a week. The same day service was more than I expected. In a hour I had new lenses in my frame. I’ve never experienced such wonderful and same day service. I was renting in The Villages of Florida for 2 months when my vision got cloudy. So pleased with results. All at a reasonable fee.

Posted on Google★★★★★Staff is very pleasant and helpful. Doctor is very detailed and explains everything so you can easily understand. My glasses we made within 1 hour I highly recommend this eye Doctor office.
Donna Iverson
Posted on Google★★★★★As this was my first visit to Hindsight, I experienced great success. Dr. Russell greeted me, reviewed my health & eye health with me. The exam was done efficiently and I moved onto the care of staff member, LaDonna. We discussed glasses choices and moved onto the purchase. It was a surprising pleasure that the glasses cost far less than expected…
Rebekah Mae
Posted on Google★★★★★Beautiful glasses to choose from. I asked for help finding something in the style I like, and I went with the frames they recommended for me. They really got my style and picked a flattering size and shape for my face. They also had the glasses done so fast! Normally, at my place back home, I have to wait 1-2 weeks, but they had them done in an hour!
Henderson Eads
Posted on Google★★★★★No question for the best eye exam, Complete check up of your eyes, and a honest opinion as to what you need or dont need and never a mention of buying glasses at HindSight and a perscription given to you with the Doctors results for you to get glasses where ever you choose.
Paula Stacey
Posted on Google★★★★★I love the staff at Hindsight. They are knowledgeable and friendly. The exam is always pleasant and stress free, no long waits. They help me make good choices for lenses and styles and are considerate of my budget. I also love how they fix my glasses free of charge when I bend something the wrong way or they start to sit wrong on my face. I happily recommend them.
