I thought optometrists only treated vision problems. Boy was I wrong. I had been dealing with the feeling that something was in my eye for two days. It had become bothersome and a little painful. With an important presentation that afternoon, Dr. Robison squeezed me in that morning to get me better. He did a full comprehensive exam and spent about a half hour under my eyelids fishing around for whatever could be causing the problem. Unable to find anything, he told me that I likely had shingles and started me on antivirals. Because of my age and the odd presentation, he suggested I get a second opinion just to be safe. The second opinion came that afternoon at a walk-in clinic. They told me they had no idea what it was and that I should just take some painkillers, wait it out, and if symptoms worsen, seek another evaluation. Symptoms worsened quickly by the next morning so my third opinion came from the emergency room where the doctor told me “this definitely isn’t shingles” and went searching for an aneurism or tumor with a CT scan along with running all of my blood/lab work. With all the results coming back negative, she called it a severe migraine and said there was no reason to continue with the antivirals (so I stopped). She did say I should have my eye looked at again by a “real expert that can do a much better exam and has access to better diagnostic equipment” so she sent me to an ophthalmologist the next day. The ophthalmologist did a fraction of the work that Dr. Robison did. I think his exam took under five minutes. He just repeated a couple of things that Dr. Robison had done and told me that “I can’t tell you what it is but it definitely isn’t shingles and that there’s no reason to keep taking the antivirals." That evening, my eyelid, scalp, and face broke out in a blistery rash. Dr. Robison was right, it was shingles. Dr. Robison is a true primary care eye doctor capable of diagnosing and managing things far beyond vision problems. He was friendly, compassionate, very knowledgeable, and highly professional. And the experience doesn’t end when you check out and leave the clinic. He has been there with followup phone-calls just to check in and see how things are progressing. I will refer everyone I know to him and if you are having problems with your eyes - or just need your vision checked - I highly recommend you seek out his care.

I really enjoy going to Cascadia Eye Care. They are so friendly and professional at the same time. We used to have eye care included with our HMO health insurance, but with changing insurances we no longer have that. So a friend recommended Cascadia Eye Care. I learned more about my eyes than I had before and Dr. Robison suggested a supplement that totally got rid of my dry eyes so my contacts are comfortable all day. The first time I went I decided that my old glasses were okay and I would just get new contacts. (Excellent, by the way.) But the optics in the glasses were not that good, and I would try taking off my glasses to see better when I did wear them. So this year with my appointment, my contacts were good, so I decided to get new glasses. Oh My, I can see so well. Yes they were a little more than I could find at the big box stores, but the difference is huge. These give me the clearest vision I have had with glasses!! My glasses last me several years usually so when I think of the difference of a few pennies a day more to be able to see so clearly with my glasses, I am thrilled. I actually dont hesitate to wear my glasses more as I can see so well. Thank you to Dr. Robison and great staff. I definitely recommend my friends to come see you. Bonnie J

I was very happy with with the care and attention that I received @ Cascadia Eye Care. The doctor and staff were very professional and offered some of the latest technology. However I want to warn people about the cost of classes @ Cascadia I care. They wanted $500.00 for a basic pair of flexon clases with single vision Polycarbonate lenses with anti-scratch and anti-election. You can get the same thing for around $100.00 at Costco. My last pair lasted me 4 & 1/2 years. I highly recommend Cascadia for care but not for buying your glasses.

I have been coming here for over 15 years and have always had outstanding service. I have bifocal contacts and severe nearsightedness and Dr Robinson has done a superb job working with me to get the best fit and correction. In addition the staff work very hard to get the right frame and lens for glasses. It may not be a cheap as Costco (see other review) but you get what you pay for and here you get the best.

The perfect combination of high tech equipment and down home office friendliness. Everything about this experience was five stars. Dr. Robison does an excellent exam and his staff goes above and beyond at every step in the process. Located in a small shopping center near Bridgeport, this unassuming office puts on no pretenses, just delivers exceptional patient care from exam to new glasses.

I dont feel like i got my moneys worth. Went in for an eye exam. Staff wasnt very informative. I got my prescription but thats it. They didnt tell me anything about my eyes like other places do. They wanted me to pay for a second appointment to talk about dry eyes. lenses are expensive there and they only give you one option. Not a big selection of frames. staff was not very up beat.

After being talked down to by a doctor who has an office in both Milwaukie/Lake Oswego, I promised my child Id never make them go back there. Thankfully, Cascadia Eye Care was recommended-and now my whole family goes there. Several of us wear glasses-and while choice in frame styles is great-it is the kind customer service that really keeps us coming back.

I got glasses here several years ago and they were great- really nice people. Plus, the prices are reasonable. Not cheap, but not sky-high like that place down the road. It was helpful to test the difference between the non-glare and regular lenses. I ended up getting the non-glare and I was so glad I did.

Great Customer Service! I needed a pair of glasses, the staff made the process as painless, quick and easy as possible. Dr Robinson also embraces the latest technology for eye exams, which gave me the option to avoid bleary eyes. I would absolutely recommend Dr Robinson!

There is no better optometrist in Oregon. We have been privileged to have Dr. Robison as our optometrist for probably 15 years! He has taken care of us perfectly. And the staff is the most professional and kind as well!

Dr. Robison is quite thorough and an amazing eye doctor. I always had dry eyes and could not wear contacts. He has me wearing contacts and not only that, mono vision! I hope he never retires(:
