It’s sad that the doctors are so wonderful but I can’t reach someone on the phone! Every time I need to order contacts, I call and call and call and it’s impossible to get an answer much less a call back!
Always a good visit. Everyone is very attentive to details in the services they provide. Never a long wait and everything is explained as to the services provided and/or any problems.
There hours are kind of ridiculous. Being that most people have to be to work at 8:30am, it would be nice for them to start at 8am. Actually it would be nice if they could open up on time if anything, it is 8:36am, and the door is still locked……
Looking for an optometrist in the area? I highly recommend Dr Younger and his staff. Scheduling was easy, the staff was efficient and pleasant and service was superior.
Great visit yesterday. Only thing that I would change is let the staff wear something besides black scrubs. The Dr.s wore light colored clothing, should let staff wear light colors.
The only reason I’m not giving 3 stars is because of the front desk. They are consistently rude. I have come here for years and I love the optometrists. However the front desk needs customer service training.
This is the worst vision center that i ever did business with .. i will be picking up a pair of glasses that don’t fit my needs and paid almost 185.00.
I definitely will be sharing my experience with friends and whoever i know in the future.
Great experience! Everyone was very friendly and answered all of my questions. I just moved to the area, so its nice to know I’ve found my new eye doctor.
We have been waiting for 2 months for my 4 year olds glasses they told me it would be 3 weeks they never called to tell me about a delay or anything i have called multiple times asking where his glasses are and they keep telling me they …
called and tried to get my medical records, which legally I am entitled to, ( I am in the medical field and know my rights) and a girl named Alex answered. She was so disgustingly rude it was despicable. she told me she could not send it to …
First experience here. Friendly staff and professional. Better than several places I’ve been in the Upstate. Turn around is long due to holiday and COVID but I’m sure worth the wait for the care that was given.
Every visit has been great the staff makes you feel welcome! Dr.Younger makes you feel like family! I love going there I even recommend my family members!😊 …
I actually enjoyed my time at the office. The staff was so welcoming and kind. I did nothing but smile and laugh the entire time. They were so helpful. Thank you Carolina Vision Associates. God bless you all.
Everyone is so courteous from the moment you check in, to seeing the doctor, to picking out your frames, to checking out. They have a great selection of frames to choose from so when you can’t make up your mind like me, the staff is there to help you. I would highly recommend Carolina Vision.
I love this eye center. The people are very friendly and I love Dr Penka. She is very thorough on her eye exams. I would recommend this center to all my friends.
I was referred to Carolina vision associates by my primary care physician. They called me set up an appointment, then told me to contact them sometime before my appointment to give them my medicaid information. They contacted me a few days …
I couldn’t be happier with my glasses and the kindness and friendliness of the staff that came along with getting them. It was a literal “eye opening moment” when I put my new glasses on and could see faces that weren’t blurry! Fabulous frames too!
We absolutely love Dr. Younger! He is great with my 13 year old daughter, who is often nervous and jittery when we get there. He puts her right at ease and is easy to understand.
They don’t even deserve 1 star. I had trouble getting to the office and they wanted to reschedule me after I told them it was hard getting here. I didn’t expect the place to look like a dump. Thought it would be in more like an office …
I tried many times to get into the portal. It kept saying to enter the valid validation code. I tried many times. It never worked. The visit to the office was great and very helpful. Dr. Younger is an excellent and informative doctor. I trust his judgement.
Dr. Powell is such a great doctor. She has a great personality that it is so easy to talk to her, and I she cares about her patients which you don’t always see that in a physicians.
I’ve went here since I was a kid. I used to go to Dr. Shealy, but for the past 3 – 4 years i’ve seen Dr. Younger and they both were great. They were always courteous and respectful. The staff was typically friendly… the reason I gave four …
I am changing my review from 1 star to 5 stars. I switched from the Spartanburg office to the Inman office and I am completely blown away at the difference. The staff in Inman are more caring and take a considerable amount of time with you …
The staff is always so friendly. They get you seen in a timely manner and it’s always quick and efficient. Dr. Penka is wonderful and explains what she’s doing as she does it. She makes you feel very comfortable! Love this place and Dr. Penka!
I visited for a glasses purchase. Tammy and Angela were great. They took the time to help find a frame that was perfect for me. Both were very knowledgeable of frame styles and fit. Great customer service! Thanks ladies!
This is the second time we have been here and both times they charged over double what they quoted. The billing office leaves the second it turned 5pm. Our current Dr had retired and was more comprehensive in his exams then they were and …
Loved the variety of glasses they had to offer. Office staff and techs were nice. I wish Dr. Sprouse had been a little more talkative/informative. I left unsure of whether my prescription had changed or not.
Doctor Penka is awesome! The person who helped me with glasses was terrible. She acted like she didn’t want to be there and didn’t want to help me choose anything to purchase. She was confused and ended up causing me a delay in checking out. Her attitude toward me after she was the one who messed up my transaction was rude.
Friendly and efficient service as usual, especially since this appointment was made on short notice. Dr. Sprouse has been my go-to optometrist for years, and he has also referred me to other eye specialists who have literally saved my eyesight. Can’t say enough good things about Carolina Vision.
Employees are rude and need to be trained in billing. After my yearly check up, I paid for my visit and contacts and was told they would be mailed to my home address. I then received a call several days later that they were in and I needed …
I really enjoy going here. The receptionist was friendly, but Jane the Optometrist Assistant made me laugh and relaxed…thanks Jane! Dr. Powell is always the best and the main reason I go here. She is always approachable, passionate, …
I’ve been going here for almost 10 years. Dr. Younger is great. If he can put up with me, that says a lot. His staff is friendly and they’re usually really prompt. I’ve had one time in 10 years that I waited what I considered to be a longer period than normal so I can’t say that’s too bad.
I dislike changing Drs., but I felt so relieved that everyone was professional, nice & patient. I really liked the Dr. , he explained everything & was not rushed . Everyone was nice & helpful. I know that everything possible was done to …
The whole staff at Carolina Vision is amazing no matter what Dr. you decide to go to! I’ve been a patient of Dr. Younger for YEARS! Dr. Younger and his staff always devote me great service. They continue to go above and beyond to meet my needs.
Check-in is stream-lined and staff are friendly and helpful throughout the entire process – from check-in to check-out. Dr. Mike Younger is always a pleasure to deal with. He is professional and thorough and breaks down his clinical …
I’ve always gotten excellent service here. The staff is friendly and competent, waits are rarely past my appointment time. They are very careful with sanitation and Covid 19 protocols. I highly recommend Carolina Vision!
I was flying from Michigan to visit friends. Midway through my travel day, I realized I had NO contacts!!! Carolina Vision Associates worked with my optometrist so that I had contacts waiting for me before I landed in Spartanburg. I truly appreciate their kindness, promptness and overall service. I would highly recommend them!
Everyone in the office was really nice. Dr. Youngner was really patient. He answered all my questions and rexplained what was going on with my eyes. I felt the cost for the glasses were expensive in comparison to other places. I will definately return for my eye exams but I will purchase my glasses somewhere else.
I’ve been going to this practice 20 years or more and I bring my children too. I started with Dr. Shelley, who is now retired and we now see Dr. Powell. She is a wonderful lady who treats you like family. She is knowledgeable, kind and if …
I had a problem with my eye over the weekend. I called Carolina Vision Associates Monday morning to see if I could get an appointment with Dr. Michael Younger. I was able to get an appointment that day! He took care of the problem with …
Carolina Vision has been helping me for many years to make sure that my eye sight is the best thing that I can possibly experience. The optometrists and nurses are all very friendly, knowledgeable, and caring.
The staff at Carolina Vision Associates were very professional and yet very patient and adaptable with my 11 year old son who was very squeamish about hie first eye appointment. Dr. Penka was wonderful as always. Very professional, very …

I really like Dr. Michael Younger. He is always so courteous and professional. He is very thorough with my eye exams. He really puts you at ease where you don’t feel nervous about being there. I would highly recommend his services as an awesome eye care professional!
They were fast getting to me. I hadn’t even filled my paperwork. They were friendly and efficient. The doctor not only answered my questions, but explained terminology. He was thorough, kind and warm and friendly. Then I went to the …
Eye doctor is great but after two negative experiences with the front office staff I won’t be back. I was told my insurance wasn’t accepted so had to pay out of pocket before I was allowed to go back and see the doctor but then was …
Dr. Powell and staff are amazing! I would not be in the best health now if it were not for their support and management of my eye health needs! Highly recommend!
I’ve come to look forward to my consultations with Dr. Younger. Coming for an examination with him is more like coming to visit with a friend. Aside from his being highly professional, knowledgable, and informative, he is extraordinarily …
Eye doctor is good, but front office people are not the people related type staff. The charging fee is high. it is almost twice the price compare to other local optical places like Stanton or lens crafter. Equipment looks old and not up to …
My sister is a patient of this office and she referred me to them. I was very happy with the service they provided. Everyone was very friendly, helpful, and patient. Most importantly, the service was very quick. Dr. Younger was very thorough!! I’m not used to this kind of service. Awesome job everyone!!
Always friendly,they get me in for an appt at the time I need and my yearly appt falls at the end of the year when everyone is trying to get in, rarely have to wait for more than a few minutes to be taken back. I’ve been a patient of Dr W …

I have been a patient of Dr. Younger’s for several years. I have always had a very positive experience with this business.
The service is prompt and professional. They make the experience as pleasant as possible. They also have a great selection of frames and sunglasses.
Danny’s customer service was great. He helped me pick a new frame that fit well, and repaired my glasses on the spot.
There hours are kind of ridiculous. Being that most people have to be to work at 8:30am, it would be nice for them to start at 8am. Actually it would be nice if they could open up on time if anything, it is 8:36am, and the door is still locked……
