Dr. Carl Corrow, OD

This pertains more to the practice in general, Dr. Sylvia and Dr. Corrow as an owner. I am very hesitant to post a poor review because I’m in the healthcare field in RI also and know the negative impact it can have but I feel potential patients must know the choice they are making. I came to Dr. Sylvia with the expressed desire to improve the vision of my previous specialty contact lenses which were 4 years old. He assured me he could do that but required me to sign an agreement that said I would forfeit $500 if I returned them. Of course, with his promise of improved vision I had no reason to return them and I trusted him. Each of his attempts to improve my vision failed and in fact it was significantly worse than before. I was forced to go back to my old contacts each time. On the last visit, I told Dr. Sylvia I had to blink repeatedly to improve my vision for an instant and it was very unstable. His reply was that “my brain would adapt.” Really??? Stay away
