"I remember taking my mom to the Eye Center of PA a few years before she passed away. Little did I realize I would be going there myself years later!When my eye doctor diagnosed me with cataracts in both eyes, I did not hesitate to tell him I wanted to go to the Eye Center of Central PA. I remembered how wonderful everyone was to my mom and I can honestly say I was not disappointed with my care over the past 2 months!I highly recommend Dr. Spencer Onishi, along with Donnel Apuzzio, MSHS, PA-C and the staff at the Eye Center of Central PA! From my initial consultation to my 2 cataract surgeries, along with follow-up appointments, their level of care and professionalism was outstanding.Dr. Onishi was so kind and patient as well as highly skilled. He took time to explain every step of the procedure and answered all my questions. He even came to see me before both surgeries! I was so grateful for all his support and advice to help me recover from my surgeries. My vision is so much clearer and I can see without my glasses! I can honestly say, I was at ease throughout the entire procedure.Donnel Apuzzio, MSHS, PA-C was also so kind and caring as she examined me during my follow-up appointments the day after my surgeries. She is very skilled and also took time to answer all my questions, as well as giving me good advice that helped me in the recovery process.Along with Dr. Onishi and Donnel Apuzzio, MSHS, PA-C, I also appreciated the care I received from all the nurses. Everyone was so kind to me and supportive of one another; they are truly an amazing team!Thank you all so much!"
"The receptionist was extremely helpful with my insurance. She went above and beyond to help me, and I’m loving the glasses picked out. The selection was amazing."
"My appointment went very well. Everyone I came in contact with was very helpful and friendly. Always a great experience. Thank you.My appointment on May 6 for my eye exam for new glasses went extremely well, Dr. Jarrett explained everything to me and answered all my questions. Everyone in the office is very helpful and friendly. Keep up the great work. Thank you."
"Today was a follow up appointment to check the status of my dry eye condition. I only recently transferred to the Eye Center last fall, but have received kind and comprehensive care from Dr. Orren and all staff. This includes support for my condition as well as the purchase of my prescription eyeglasses 🤓"
"The Eye Center is a totally awesome experience. I had lasik in 2007 and now Light Adjustable Lensplacement after cataract surgery. All of the employees are very knowledgeable and caring."
"Went in to get my new glasses, lady that waited on me was very nice and professional, I've been coming here for years, this is 3rd pair of glasses I've gotten from here, will continue to get my business, GREAT PLACE!!!"
"At 70 getting new eyes through light adjustable lenses is nothing short of miraculous!! The process delivered from Dr. Hardsel and Dr. Bonner was awesome to say the least. I am free from corrective Len's of any power and have better that perfect vision. The process is tedious and takes time ! BUT sooooo worth the patience that is required to complete the treatment!! I HIGHLY!! recommend this to anyone ready for cataract surgery ."
"The Eye Center is fantastic ! Wy wife, Beverly had cataract surgery on both eyes. Dr. O is great ! The complete staff in Allenwood was awesome. The staff in Northumberland and Dr. Verna was awesome ! Donnel and Zoey and the staff, in Lewisburg are all amazing ! Everyone at the Eye Centers are all very caring people. Keep up the wonderful work you do. 👍John Eisenhower"
"The Eye Center staff are friendly, organized, and knowledgeable. The facility is clean and comfortable. I was seen for a torn retina that has healed nicely thanks to Dr. Lightman and crew. I’m grateful for the surgery and follow ups."
"This is for the Muncy Eye Center and Dr Bonner.Very thorough professional Eye exams. I really appreciate Dr Bonner's concern and knowledge about ophthalmology and my specific Eye issues. He never misses a thing!"
"I always feel confident in the doctors at the eye center. Dr. Hartzell did my cataract surgery. I cannot believe how clear my sight is. I totally believe the service is at the Eye Center is topnotch!"
"Dr Wayne and all of the staff are the absolute best! They helped me through some issues caused by contacts and helped me get in for a lasik surgery. I will be coming here from here on out for any eye related care."
"After my surgery that went really well, about a year and a half later I was experiencing some issues...Wayne took a look and everything was still good. Turns out it was dry eyes that needed drops...started doing them and my eyes are more relaxed.. kudos for your help."
"The Eye Center visit after having the Cataract surgery has been excellent! However, today I went to have my eyes checked for glasses that I previously used for better sight. The previous lenses needed changed and when I was told of the price for the new lenses, $525.00, I articulated to the individual if I was purchasing the Washington Monument!"
"Bilateral Cataract surgery was very successful under the care of Dr Onishi. He is very skilled and the process was user friendly Educational, efficient, and effective. At 79 y/o I now have 20/20 vision post op !!!"
"This was my return visit after two weeks. Another great experience. Even though they were busy,I was checked in very quickly and was back in the eye exam room before my scheduled appointment time. The tech was very friendly. Dr. Jarrett was thorough and efficient. I was checked out quickly and sent over to the area to purchase eyeglasses. They looked up my insurance information so I knew what was covered. They were helpful and friendly. I purchased a pair of eye glasses. No concerns."
"I was in dire need of an eye appointment before the end of December 2025 and there was an opening when I called. They got me right in was able to order my bifocals.From speaking to someone on the phone to each one of the ladies that I came in contact with that day and the doctor, They were nothing but wonderful. Even the lady that helped me pick out my glasses right there on site was wonderful! If you want a place that you are not considered just a number but a person this is where you need to be. You won’t be disappointed"
"Love the Eye Center - have been going for yearly appts for years. Had my cataract surgery through them--great experience!!"
"I went to the Danville site for consultation. I went to the Allenwood site for cataract surgery. I went to the Lewisburg site for a follow up appointment. From the time I entered each of these locations, I was treated with respect and kindness. The process at each site was extremely organized. Everything was explained very clearly so I was able to understand. They took time to answer any questions I had. I will definitely go back when I have the next eye done."
"The appointments at the eye center have been timely and efficient and the staff is courteous and willing to answer questions. My cataract surgery went smoothly with no complications. I have been pleased with my treatment at The Eye Center."
"Loved the removal of my cataracts. I can't believe the difference in my vision"
"The best experience that I have had with eyecare. I asked my eye doctor to refer me to The Eye Center so I could have Dr. Hartzell to do my cataract surgery. Dr. Hartzell did my Mom's cataract surgery years and years ago, so I knew she had great results and that he is the best around. I met with Dr. Hartzell and he said that he could do both eyes, as one of mine was worse than the other. Everyone at the Eye Center answered all of my questions and encouraged me to call whenever I had any. I paid to upgrade my lenses to light adjustable lenses so I would not have to wear glasses, as my vision was bad and wore glasses for 52 years. Dr. Hartzell operated on one eye at a time and I was given UV glasses to wear when in sunlight and indoors. I followed all of the instructions the Eye Center gave me. I had questions after my 1st eye fogged from inflammation and was assured that it was normal and would be clear up by the next day, which it did. After both eyes were done it was time to see Dr. Jarrett to adjust my light adjustable lenses to my preferred vision. Dr. Jarrett set my vision with one eye great for distance and the other eye great to see to read up close. Since both eyes were set for my vision, I have not had to use readers, which I needed before with contacts. I go back to see Dr. Hartzell in a year. I am so happy with my experience with everyone at the Eye Center. I highly recommend Dr. Hartzell, Dr. Jarrett and the Eye Center for cataract surgery! Randy Gill"
"Excellent Physician Providing Excellent Results - Dr. Hartzell spent time with me during my consultation and answered all my questions relating to my upcoming cataract surgery. I have an aversion to things near my eyes and he assured me there would be no issues. When the surgeries came, he was correct. No issues. His facility and his associates are all very professional. I was very nervous and they put me at ease, even prior to the procedures. I highly recommend Dr. Hartzell and have already done so to several individuals in my sphere of influence."
"Dr. Bradley is an outstanding doctor. He truly cares for his patients and goes the extra mile! He has my dry eye problem under control. I couldn't be happier ☺️."
"From the time I first walked into the Eye Center months ago, I have had nothing but great, friendly service. The Lewisburg office staff were great and Conimarie was wonderful in explaining everything related to insurance. I had eye surgery yesterday, and Dr. Hartzell and his staff at the Allenwood office were AMAZING! I went for my follow up in the Williamsport office, and again, excellent service! I cannot wait to get my 2nd surgery in two weeks and never wear glasses again! I highly recommend this place!"

"Dr. Ou did a wonderful job on my eyes! I just picked up my glasses and I'm in 7th Heaven! I appreciate everything. You're always there to take care of me."
"Dear Dr. Ou, Dr. Orren and Donnel Apuzzio,
Thank you for the care given to me before, during and after the cataract surgery. Before I saw you, I had lost a degree of my vision and glare was a considerable problem. After the surgery, my vision is so much better, and life is better being to see. Be well and I hope that 2025 is a great year for all."
"Wonderful results and wonderful people! - I am ore than happy with the results of my cataract surgery. Dr Onishi is great! Staff so friendly. "
"Great staff , professional and nice doctors Optical shops are fantastic. Nice selection of glasses to choose from . The staff at the mifflinburg location are the best"

"Easy to make an appointment. My glasses broke and I was due for another exam. I opted for the “virtual kind” at the office where you go through the data collection process with a tech who then submits all the data to the doc. Tech was super sweet and kind. Virtual doc was helpful and prescription was accurate. Purchased contact lenses at this location using insurance. Took my eyeglass prescription with me to purchased frames and lenses elsewhere. I am grateful for the services offered and the kindness and professionalism of the staff."
"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"
"Highly recommend Dr Hartzell - Very happy I can see again out of my right eye he did yag laser on it. Dr Hartzel is the best in the state of PA . I highly recommend him. My son drove me there it took us a little over 3 hours to go there one way . Dr. Hartzel is the only one I trust so glad my sister recommended him to me and on the plus side I got to go home for a short visit to see my sister and brother in law. Thank you Dr Hartzel "
"I just had my second eye cataract removed today. I wanted to let people know about my experience. the Surgery Center experience was A+ from check in to discharge both times. The staff was up beat, cheerful and worked as a well oiled team. It ran like clockwork. At no time did I feel stressed or neglected. My outcomes were as I had hoped. Great experience! Kudos to Dr Hartzell and his entire staff. Rick B"
"Dr.Jarret, Raven and Michelle were fantastic to work with. I was granted an appointment in a very timely manner. The day of my appointment I was seen promptly at the scheduled time. My needs were met and exceeded by the courteous staff. I left with more information and knowledge about my eyes than I received in decades. Thank you Eye Center!"
"I just can't express how nice it is to go to an office where everybody is friendly. Everybody smiles. Everybody understands and explains things in a way I can understand. It's just a joy to go there. Everybody smiles. Everybody greets you. Everybody makes you laugh. I love how the office is always happy, smiling, and having fun. The girls down there at the surgery center, they treat you like a person. They explain thing really well. The continually ask which eye, and your date of birth, and I don't care if I have to give it 500 times, it keeps me safe! Everyone is so great! They're always checking on you, asking if you need anything, and if you're okay. And my vision, I couldn't be happier! I can see 500% better! It's a win-win!"
"Excellent doctor who cares. - A wonderful doctor that listened and help resolve my questions and concerns. Made me feel at ease and welcomed to have my eyes checked. Thank you."
"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."
"I have nothing but good to say about this while place! Everyone is so professional and friendly. Dr. Gonzales literally has worked with me through six pair of contacts till we finally found the right ones for my eyes. I would recommend her to anyone."
"Always receive prompt and excellent service. Office staff are friendly and caring. Dr Hartzell is professional, knowledgeable and he takes time to explain conditions and procedures. I rate "A" plus overall for the Eye Center."
"I think Dr. Bonnell in Belfonte is an awesome eye doctor. She has helped me so much with my eyesight to get it better and she didn't stop until she did. If there's anything such as a raise for her, she deserves it. Tell her L.C. said so it took her a quite a while to get my eyesight to where it was bearable and not depressed about my vision."
"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!"
"Outstanding service, care and expertise. I would never go anywhere else for eye care. My first interaction was over 20 years ago for LASIK and I've been a patient ever since. Highly recommend!"
"I've been going to the Eye Center for years. Dr Bowen has been treating me for my dry eyes and doesn't just rush me though or give me a prescription that he doesn't feel comfortable with until he can get my eyes stabilized. It's nice to have a Dr that actually cares and listens to his patients concerns."
"I have dry eye syndrome. I have used a LOT of drops. At one point I was using Xiidra and Restasis and Serum tears and plugs all at the same time. I still had trouble . About a month ago Dr. Bowen said I was a candidate for the Umbelical patch. So I tried it. What a difference!! I am over a month out and my eye still feels good. We don't know how long it will last and it will need to be done again but what a difference. I still use the Xiidra and Serum tears but that is ok. Thank you Dr. Bowen!"
"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."
"I highly recommend the eye center. Clean nice staff very friendly. The eye doctor was awesome she's a sweetheart ❤️ she told me what was wrong with my eyes.i will go to them when I need to go for future eye exams!"
"Dr. Bowen is amazing, very knowledgeable and kind. I have been having some scary issues with my eyes, and he has been wonderful! I also appreciate the kindness of all of the staff members at the Middleburg office. Thanks to all!"
"Very grateful for Dr Ou and all of the wonderful staff who helped me during my cataract surgery. Dr Ou was very reassuring and thoughtful. I was so very frightened to have the surgery and now I’m so relieved and happy I did. They all did a wonderful job and my eyesight is so very much better. Highly recommend Dr Ou and their services"
"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!"
"First time here and had a wonderful experience from start to finish. Staff at front desk was friendly and quick to check me in as a new patient. My wait time was nothing compared to what you normally expect at any doctor’s office. Once I was in the back, my exam was quick and easy. One of the quickest eye exams I’ve ever gotten. Will definitely make this my new eye place."
"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!"
"Staff is professional and friendly. My visits and my cataract surgery went wonderfully. Dr Oh was very nice. I opted for just the basic surgery & now have 20/25 vision.They even accommodated me in a polite and professional manner when I was late for one of my appointments. There is a very short wait time. Their optic Center replaced my lenses. They told me an hour and they were done in an hour. I don't know about their other Lewisburg office in downtown Lewisburg as I've never gone there. But the Mifflinburg office is also great."
"I have been going to Dr. Bonner for over ten years. He does an amazing job at doing my eye exams! I also met with Dr. Hartzel about cataract surgery. I feel very confident he will perform my surgery with the utmost precision! I look forward to having improved vision. Thank you!"
"from the moment i walked in was impressed with the staff, friendly, helpful, fast...dr bonner was amazing as well as the girls who did my eye testing....EXTREMELY DETAILED EXAM...i loved being able to go straight to order my glasses with a very competent and friendly girl who helped me with choosing the style best fitted for my face...HIGHLY RECOMMEND...FIVE STARS FROM ME"
"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."
"I was in and had my right eye fixed from a cataract they got me in and they are fast now going back to get glasses soon thanks guys and ladies"
"Great exam and glasses are very nice too, had a screw come out and went in and Grace had it fixed in a few minutes!! Thanks so much!!"
"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."
"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."
"I recently had cataract surgery done by Dr. Hartzell . I worried about the procedure and how it would affect my eye sight. Turned out Dr. Hartzell did an excellent job and now I only need glasses to read. I no longer have to wear my Rx. glasses after so many years. The staff that he has at both Allenwood and Williamsport are by far the nicest medical staff I ever had, in particular Lydia. My wife and I both had surgery and Lydia made everything so easy for us. We owe her a special thank-you for all her hard work and compassion she showed us."
"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!"

"Having cataracts in both of my eyes had affected my vision over time so much that it was hard to do anything in my daily life. It was also getting very bad driving at night from all the bright lights affecting my vision even more going to and from work. A friend had recommended this eye center so we called and made an appointment and met with Dr. Hartzell. He explained what was going on with my eyes and we began preparations for my surgery. The entire staff was very helpful through the whole process and made things go smoothly. Both surgeries went very well and my sight had improved so much just after 24 hours and kept getting better! Thank you to the great staff for being so helpful and special thanks to Dr. Hartzell for removing my clouded vision and bringing back the wonderful colors and sight back into my life! I can now see very clearly with no issues!Thank you,Iba C."

"I have absolutely no complaints about the treatments and the office visits with Dr. Hartzell. I have always been treated very well and very professionally. The cataract surgery went great, and Dr. Hartzell reviewed everything very thoroughly. I'm very happy with the treatment I received at the Eye Center of Central PA. I would recommend him to anyone."
"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."
"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"

"An excellent ophthalmologist! I went to Dr Ou for what I thought was macular degeneration but turned out to actually be a hole in the macula in my right eye. After examining my eyes and taking pictures of the retinas in both eyes, Dr Ou described my condition very clearly and answered my questions very knowledgeably. He is very personable and I would highly recommend him to family, friends and anyone looking for a good ophthalmologist."
"I had LASIK surgery with Dr. Hartzell and it was perfect. He explains the procedure, and his staff makes the whole process easy. I was thinking of going out of the area, but I'm glad I chose Dr. Hartzell."

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"
