Dr. Scott hartzell has done wonders with my eyes. I wore Coke bottles for glasses all of my life. I told him if he could just lighten my prescription I would be extremely happy. He worked on my eyes so well. I don't even have to wear glasses. I haven't worn them for 15 years and I'm extremely happy with Dr. Hartzell in the eye center, they are extremely professional, kind and courteous there. Thanks again, Glenn Miller More

Definitely worth it - I got a quick appt. I did what they told me to do. All went very well and in 1 day after surgery my vision cleared and was so good that I could get rid of my glasses before my other eye was done. I had severe cataract and astigmatism in a otherwise healthy eye. Can't hardly wait to get my other eye fixed. Thank you Dr. Hartzel and the wonderful staff that works there. More

Dr.Gonzalez is great! She is attentive and caring. Our family has benefited greatly by coming here. Every "eye care" need is addressed promptly,and we go home with the correct glasses every time! My kids love that the staff is friendly and make the process pleasant! More

I had cataract surgery which was performed by Dr. Hartzell. This was my final appointment to check the outcome of my procedure. This appointment was with Dr. Bonner. I would highly recommend The Eye Center. Very professional but also personable and caring. Dr. Bonner takes his time when he examines my eyes. I think he enjoys his work. My vision is improved to the point that I only need glasses for reading. More

Most perfect prescription glasses every time, Dr Bonnell is the best. I had prescriptions made at 3 other places in State College area over 6-7 years, and all of them were not quite right. I am glad I found Dr Bonnell! More

Always extremely thorough eye exams and explanations of issues.  My doctor and the staff are always very pleasant and kind.  My glasses are always a great fit and always perfect for correcting my vision issues - they always make sure they are exactly right! More

I recently went to the Muncy eye center for a eye exam and glasses. After my eye exam I went into the Optical to look at frames. Because of Covid only one person at a time is aloud in which I think is better because I had a sales clerk named Kathy. At first I thought she seemed very stressed out but I was wrong. She was very professional and explained all that needed answered. I ordered my new glasses got them but they hurt my bridge on my nose. I called Kathy said come in and she’ll re adjust them. She did but they still hurt my nose so she talked to her manager and called to let me know I could exchange my frames for a lighter pair. I went today and she helped me pick a lighter pair. I should get them in 7 days. I want to thank Kathy for going the extra mile for me. More people should be like her. I sure hope her boss reads this to see that people appreciate a sales person like her. More

I’ve been a patient of their Lewisburg office for over 10 years and have always had excellent care.  Have worked with Dr. Hensel for most of that time.  I wear glasses and contacts.  My prescription is pretty strong.  My kids have seen both Dr. Fritz and Dr. Bowen and trust their visual health with them.  Great people in the optical department.  Love the glasses.

Review from T.R.  |  Source: Google  |  Oct 05, 2019

Came here for my eye and contact lens exam and my 5 yo son’s first eye exam. Dr Bonner was fantastic and so were all of the staff. My son actually had fun and didn’t worry a bit. I’m one of “those” that hates anyone messing around near my eyes and he was so great, I really wasn’t uncomfortable. Had to bring my glasses back, after my 2 yo tried to clean them for me and bent them into the strangest shape. The technician had no problem fixing what I was sure was unfixable. It’s been 2 months and they’re still holding strong. Only thing that stinks about this location is there minimal hours. More

Dr. Hartzell is a miracle worker as far as I’m concerned! In just 2 years my eye sight had gotten extremely bad. I couldn’t read anything without glasses. I wanted lasik surgery to eliminate glasses and correct my bad vision. My night vision was also terrible, it was like everyone had their high beams on. After my eye exam I found out I had cataracts. I never expected that! I was very scared about surgery. Every one there was so kind and professional. Dr. Hartzell removed the cataracts and my sight is unbelievable!!! I actually read my fortune cookie at PF Changs and amazed my family. I would encourage anyone thinking eye surgery to call the Eye Center and ask for Dr. Hartzell! More

Review from G.V.  |  Source: Google  |  Oct 03, 2017

When I arrived at the Eye Center in Lewisburg, I received a thorough exam and then met with Dr. Hartzell. At that time, I had uncorrected vision of 20/400 (that's legally blind) with cataracts that further diminished my vision. Due to three prior retina tears, Dr. Hartzell outlined what he thought would be the safest plan for me. I met with several technicians after that who went over in detail exactly every step in a three month program - and I received a book with information and phone numbers and a precise schedule. Through the measurements, left and right eye surgeries and weekly follow up appointments, I have been met with helpful and courteous people who exhibited the highest level of caring and professionalism. As I type this review, I don't know where my glasses are - my last test had my uncorrected vision at 20/15. I can look at a flower and see individual petals and vivid colors. I can look at my dog and see details in his face I've never seen before. How important is your vision? At the Eye Center, they are giving people sight - it's not like rating a coffee shop. These few paragraphs cannot express how grateful I am. More

When I came to the Eye Center of Central PA in 2016, it was a scary situation. I am a graphic artist by trade, so I need my eyes to earn a living. Both of my eyes were failing due to very aggressive cataracts... My vision turned so poor, so quickly that I could no longer drive, read a magazine or use a computer! Even something as simple as watching TV had become nearly impossible. My entire world was a blur, like looking through Saran Wrap. Dr. Hartzell and his entire staff were very assuring, comforting and confident their procedures would help me. Every step of the way they were efficient, organized and completely professional. Their cheerful demeanor before and during my surgeries, and at every follow-up appointment since, has proven I made the right choice for my eye care. The results? For the first time in 50 years, I no longer need glasses! Waking up each day with nearly perfect vision (20/25) is a true blessing in every way. My wife and I thank Dr. Hartzell, his nurses and staff for all their compassionate assistance and care. — James & Lori Wittlich More
