"I have been treated by all three Kirk family M.D.s (Scott, his son Tyler, and Scott's brother Kent), and all seem competent and thorough. Additionally Dr. Scott Kirk performed cataract surgery on me about four months previously with a good outcome. Robin, the optical dept. manager was especially helpful when I asked her to check the correction on two sets of glasses I had purchased elsewhere. The staff is in general fairly friendly, especially the two women at the front desk. --- Ten years later I'm still coming back, and on October 3, 2024, Dr. Scott saw me. Assistants are doing more of the work, but Scott comes in, does the dilated examination, and explains your condition to you. Fortunately for this 80-year old, he said that all looked good. I plan to be moving up north fairly soon, but I will still take Amtrak to Chicago for him to examine me."
"I have had numerous eye surgeries over last 3 years. Thank God for Dr Tyler Kirk and his staff in Glen Ellyn, IL. I most recently had cataract surgery and 24 hours later I feel amazing. My sight has returned and I owe it all to Kirk Eye Center because they were committed to helping me get better. I recommend these guys to anyone seeking professional and great care.Thank You, Dana Noel"

"No one could have told me how dramatic the difference between pre-surgery and post-surgery are! I still am amazed to wake up and be able to see clearly and vividly. The experience was absolutely painless, very efficient and everyone involved was kind and thoughtful!"
"Great experience with cataract surgery at the Kirk Eye Center. The procedure was quick and the staff very organized. Everything was thoroughly explained before and after the procedure. Wish I had this done years ago as my vision is now better than ever."
