My family has been seeing Dr. Bacaris since 2005. Each year we went for our annual exams and glasses. The last couple of visits we were not impressed. She seemed less than capable in meeting our families needs. For instance, our son broke his glasses 6 months after receiving them. Since my plan did not allow a free pair each year I would have to pay out of pocket for them. A friend of mine recommended an online site that you can get glasses cheap (a great place to pick up extra pairs for the kids) if you can get a script from the doctor. I called Dr. Bacaris and explained the situation and my attentions. She seemed ok with this and I made an appointment. When I came home from the exam to order the glasses online I was asked for a PD (Pupillary Distance). Having no idea what this was, I called Dr. Bacaris and she told me that this information is ONLY given to patients who order glasses through her and that I can go to an opthamologist and get that information. Seriously? She knew what my intentions were BEFORE I made the appointment and the only reason I was ordering online was because the glasses I bought from her were of an inferior quality and broke within the first year. Her demeanor towards me was condescending and rude. On another occasion I had taken my daughter to for an eye exam. I was told her eye sight was fine. My daughter had an in school exam and it was suggested to see an eye doctor for glasses. We had just had the appointment with Dr. Bacaris. So we made another appointment which was not covered by my insurance and low and behold my daughter now needs glasses. Her explanation was that childrens eye change very rapidly and hers could change as much as they did in a very short period of time (2 months). Maybe, maybe not. Finally, I had my exam and when it came to getting my eyes check for glaucoma, she flat out refused stating that I had narrow-end glaucoma and she cannot help me and to see a opthamologist instead. I made my appointment preparing for this test since my eyes would be dilated and now she tells me I have a condition that I do not have. She had given me this procedure in the years prior and never said that she had concerns and to follow up with a medical professional. As a result, three strikes and youre out rule, I lost faith in her ability to properly care for my familys eyes. I suggest that you do your own research before making your decision because maybe I just had an unfortunate experience with her but then again maybe not.

My family and I have been under Dr. Bacaris care for a very long time. We always have an outstanding experience. From making appointments to having our checkups, and then picking up glasses, it all goes easily and well. She is a knowledgeable and caring doctor. Her staff is friendly and helpful. We drive 40 miles east to LI Optometric Eyecare, and plan to continue doing so for years to come.
