Reviews From Our Happy Patients
Yael G, Pittsburgh
“My recent eye exam with Dr. Cecchini was very thorough and professional. He was really knowledgeable. I loved the glasses selection and found the perfect pair for the perfect price, with the optician’s knowledgeable assistance – and I am quite picky! I highly recommend Pittsburgh Eye Associates. Everyone was wonderful, caring and answered all my questions.”
Carl B, Munhall
"For years I struggled with bifocals and that middle-age eye adjustment. Finally, I went to see Dr. Cecchini at Pittsburgh Eye Associates. Between the analysis and proper lens correction, I see as well as I did 20 years ago! Both the eyeglasses and contact lenses have been game-changers for me. I can’t thank and recommend Pittsburgh Eye Associates enough.”
