Cooper Eye Care

Dr. Jeffrey Cooper has been my eye doctor for over 10 years. He is a total pro. He runs exams on my eyes that test every possible arena where problems could arise. I would unequivocally recommend him.

I’ve been seeing Dr. Colavito for several years now and have always had a great experience. She’s always been very thorough, catching a potential issue and referring me to a specialist that helped ensure my issue did not become larger. She’s always very pleasant too and I’d recommend her to anyone!

wonderful office, great attention to detail, always patient when explaining prognosis, I have been coming to Dr. Colavito for years and have never been disappointed.

Just got back from my yearly eye checkup and was a breeze!
I’ve been coming here for years and this place delivers every time. The office staff are all very friendly and professional.
Today my usual doctor was on maternity leave so I saw Dr. Borukhov instead. As much as I like my usual doctor, Dr. Borukhov blew me away! I had a late appointment but Dr. B was friendly and efficient. He also took the time to tell me how to read my Optomap eye images, which was very interesting. He also suggested better over the counter eye drops and gave me samples. Apparently, the ones I’ve been using constrict my blood vessels and it’s not good for my eyes in the long run.
Very highly recommend!

Easy to schedule appointment, great staff and no wait time to see the doctor. Dr. Eisenberg was very nice. Would recommend her to anyone.

Went in for a standard eye exam with Dr. Borukhov. He was very diligent, thorough, and had great bedside manners. I would recommend this practice to others.

Dr. Eisenberg is incredibly friendly, professional, knowledgeable and helpful. I would highly recommend her. She carefully explains things, works with you and makes your appointment as comfortable as possible.

It was hard to find the entrance because it’s through the lobby of what looks like a residential building. You ask the doorman, and he takes you to a door that leads to a small staircase to the dungeon. Then there is a sign for a waiting room. However, after that, it was all fine! I guess that’s what you have to do when you’re on Park Ave!
There was some initial paperwork to fill out. They were running around 20 minutes behind, which is not terrible. I was called in and they did a very quick exam with two machines. Then I waited outside and came back to see the actual optometrist, who was awesome. Super friendly, and explained things in a concise yet helpful manner. She rechecked a few things, including for glaucoma, and gave me the prescriptions for glasses and contact lenses. It was quick, professional, and they didn’t try to up-​sell me anything.

My experience with Dr. Eisenberg was that she is friendly, relaxed, thorough and willing to answer questions.

The exam was thorough and on time, the office clean and modern. I trust these doctors

One of the best doctors I have ever seen. Takes his time with you, his staff is very professional and office is clean and welcoming.

My employer recently switched insurance providers which left me unable to see my normal optometrist (which in hindsight may have been a good thing). I came across Cooper Eye Care (specifically Dr. Eisenberg) after doing a brief search on ZocDoc for optometrists in NYC that accepted my insurance. Dr. Eisenberg and Cooper Eye Care had raving reviews on ZocDoc. After my visit, I now know why.
The office and waiting area were clean and welcoming, and the receptionist staff was great and clearly explained which benefits were covered by my insurance. After a faster-​than-​expected wait time, Dr. Eisenberg conducted a thorough exam and quickly identified pre-​existing conditions (always a good sign) and offered a new, more cost-​effective approach for contact lenses (for my astigmatism) that had not been proposed by my previous two optometrists. I walked out of the office with better fitting contacts at a fraction of the price that I was paying before (regular vs. toric lenses). I highly recommend everyone to schedule an appointment with Dr. Eisenberg at Cooper Eye Care.

Dr. Connena was very good, but I have to dock them stars for not returning any of my several phone calls or emails for over a week requesting an itemized receipt after my FSA required more documentation of the charges.

Great service. Quick, kind, and truly a pleasurable experience. Staff is helpful and gracious.

Excellent experience! Would recommend to anyone who has had chronic eye issues and never could understand why. Dr. Cooper gives the answers to the questions you thought could never be answered.

I am a long-​term patient of Dr Cooper and I think he is an excellent doctor — knowledgeable and thorough. His office always has the latest technology, such as the Optos machine which allows the doctor to examine your retina without dilating your pupils, and all other sorts of cool gadget-​y stuff. He is really friendly, and remembers my unique eye condition every time I see him before even looking in the chart. He gives a very comprehensive exam, and I really trust my eye health to him.

I saw Dr. Vanessa Connena for almost a year. This doctor mis-​diagnosed me, almost made me pay exorbitant rates for specialized contacts I did not need, did not review my historical prescriptions, and at the end, refused to refund my money. I needed contacts and my number is high. She disregarded my topography report, previous prescriptions and even didn’t calculate my myopia herself — she would depend on the contact lens company to do that. the whole time, she was not accounting for astigmatism and repeatedly scared me I had a degenerating eye condition. Not only could I not see properly under her care, she caused me a lot of worry.
While she has a nice personality, I DO NOT recommend her due to her complete incompetence in her field. I also do not recommend the facility as their wait times are always over 45 minutes (up to an hour and a half), they repeatedly would forget to place the order for my contacts, and Dr. Cooper as a doctor was dismissive and insensitive when I asked for a second opinion.
I am now with a new doctor, who has in the first set of contacts got my number right and complimented me on the health of my eyes despite a high number.
Please do not go to this facility.

I had an incredible experience getting hard contact lenses fitted with Cooper Eye Care. Dr. Conenna was professional, customer service oriented, and clearly loved her work.
I am not, however, able to give them a full five stars because I have had instances in which I needed to email multiple times to receive a response. They appear to be more responsive by phone.

This was my first visit to Cooper Eye Care and I will probably never look for an eye doctor again. Dr. Colavito and the staff here are great. I am typically a pretty nervous patient when I go to the doctor, but Dr. Colavito was kind and professional and built a great relationship with me throughout my exam. I saw her before work, so I when I expressed concerns about having my eyes dilated she quickly assured me there were other options and instead photographed my eyes with a machine rather than dilate them. She addressed a few concerns and made me feel at ease with some of the issues I’d been having.
I didn’t need new glasses, so I didn’t try on any glasses, but from the looks of it, they have a really nice selection.
I will definitely recommend the office and Dr Colavito specifically in the future.

Dr. Covalito and the staff at this optometry office are superb.
I have been a glasses wearer for quite a long time and I have never had a doctor develop rapport like she did. She was even able to address issues with my ability to converge on objects at close distances. I knew that it had always been an issue for me but she gave me some great eye exercises to work the muscles to improve my ability.
I also have a computerized exam today and so I wasn’t able to get my eyes dilated. She has a machine that takes a picture of your eye without having to dilate. This, for me, was a lifesaver.
The optician was not in when I finished, so I was unable to choose a pair, but the doctor spent about five minutes with me talking about some options, and she left them on the desk for the optician to call me on Monday.
This visit was pleasant, easy, and quick. I booked my appointment through ZocDoc and was able to fill out medical forms online, which made it all the speedier. I would definitely recommend this office to anyone looking to get an eye exam.
