"We took our twin 14-year-old sons to MacDonald Eye Care based on the excellent reviews here and elsewhere. The reviews are on the mark. Dr. MacDonald and her staff are very friendly and very patient. They really could not be nicer. Dr. MacDonald took her time fitting contact lenses for the boys and made sure they were comfortable putting them in and taking them out before leaving her office. Very highly recommended!"Arun M. -Washington, DC
