About
To preserve and maintain the precious gift of eyesight is an awesome responsibility. In 1987, Charles J. Simon, OD, accepted that responsibility by launching a private optometric practice in Wilmington, DE. From the beginning, he put patients' needs first. Growth followed and today, Simon Eye Associates has become one of Delaware's largest optometric practices with six offices, 16 doctors and about 70 employees. Guided by its motto, "Eye Care for Life," Simon Eye Associates has built an outstanding reputation by adopting the latest technologies, emphasizing professionalism, and rigorously developing its personal relationships with patients. One doctor is regularly assigned to quality control, making sure everything is being done correctly on the technical side and improving procedures when necessary. Everything is made as easy for patients as possible, from convenient parking at each office to helpful staff assisting patients with insurance forms. All opticians and optometric assistants are certified at levels beyond the state requirements, and most doctors are residency-trained. Simon Eye Associates has always kept up with advances in technology that assist in the diagnosis and care of our patients' vision and eye health. Simon Eye Associates employs the use of automated equipment with laser light to help establish prescriptions. Our visual field mapping helps screen and detect diseases of the eye and neurologic system. Photography is used to take a picture of the inside of the eye, establishing a baseline for future exams so that changes are more easily detected. This fundus, or "retinal," photography documents the progression--or nonprogression--of eye diseases, such as macular degeneration, glaucoma, retinal vascular disease or diabetic retinopathy.

My visit was an easy one! I arrived to pick up my contact lens which came back with 24 hours that was perfect! I was greeted at the door. I gave my name, and a bag of contact lens were given to me. The only thing missing was my receipt! I didn't return back because I was headed to work after realizing the receipt was missing. Nevertheless service was good besides not having a receipt for the $100.00+ contact lens I ordered!

I have always loved the Union Street office and the staff. A new Eye Dr. Sparks was exceptionally wonderful. She was very gentle, very nice, and very patient and yet quick. I loved the way she spoke to me and directed me, as well as assured me and made me feel safe and comfortable. Her staff were very polite and the lady who helped me pick out my frames was equally as nice and did a great job helping me to pick the right frame for me. The person behind the desk was extremely nice, they both were, and very helpful and understanding. I just love Simon Eye, I am going to miss them when I move to Columbus, OH. I hope they have one there.
