I have been a patient of Dr Cary Silverman for over 3 decades with parents also patients of his when they were alive. Over the past many years, because Dr Silverman is very busy, I have been given appts with Dr Nicholas Xanthos so my children have also been patients of Dr Nicholas Xanthos since they were young and go yearly for exams. My middle daughter who is away at college recently had pink eye. She could not get an appt at the college health center for a week. I called Dr Nicholas Xanthos for help. Dr Nicholas Xanthos said that he could not help because she wasnt seen in the office for her yearly which was overdue by just a couple months. She didnt go for her yearly because she is away at college! I was shocked! I am so bothered by his response! My 20 year old daughter has been a patient since she was young... has been going yearly for exams until she left for college. Such horrible treatment and response by Dr Nicholas Xanthos. Beyond disappointing. Literally turned his back when needed most

Dr, Silverman performed my lasik surgery over the summer. The procedure went amazing and was very quick. The staff was very nice and friendly. Sometimes you have to wait a little to see the doctor but it is highly worth it. I recommend lasik by Dr. Silverman to everyone. EyeCare 20/20 doesn't take my insurance so I go to another eye doctor for routine visits and even he asked who did my lasik since they did such a good job.

not impressed. After months of trying new prescriptions I had to ask for a renewal of my old one, so I could refill my contact lenses, then I and left.

This is the worst eye care facility I've been too. I have been wearing glasses since I was 10 and contact lenses since I was 16 and I am now 32. I moved to this area recently and was looking to get my contact prescription renewed so I made an appointment. I show up to my appointment and they do the regular eye glasses exam and tell me that for the contact lens exam I have to go through the fitting process since I am a new patient and they will contact me when the test contacts are in. I agree to this thinking they will call me back in 2-3 days. I call them a few times to get status and eventually 1.5 weeks later they tell me test contacts are in. They then tell me the next available appointment is in another week. I end up telling them to just cancel and I will go to a place that will see me today for contacts. The lady on the phone just yells "WHAT THE HELL, SHE HUNG UP ON ME" and hangs up on me. I call back to say no I was still on the call and to just cancel this order. 20-30 mins later, i get a call back saying they can see me the same day and to come in at 10am. I end up saying yes to get this to get it over with. I waited until 10:45 to be seen and the appointment was rushed (completed in under 5 mins just walking to two rooms) and there was absolutely no fitting done. So pretty much they charged me $60 (copay) for just waiting around band walking and free test contacts

Went here for an emergency visit. Scheduled and seen for severe eye pain within a day. I sat in the waiting room for over an hour but it wasn't unexpected, being an urgent visit scheduled pretty last-minute. I was a little worried I wasn't going to be seen before they closed for the night but once we started getting close to closing, the pace started picking up.
The tech was super friendly and the doctor was polite, friendly, and knowledgable. He took a look in my eye and found a tiny piece of metal in my iris - no idea how that got there but he numbed my eye on the spot and removed it with some fancy drilling magnet. It was actually kind-of a scary procedure but he talked me through it and I barely noticed how scary it was until after he had removed the object. He set me up with a bunch of samples of solution to help treat lingering pain and a followup visit to make sure everything was okay.
Despite the wait it was still a great experience for an urgent visit! Do recommend.Helpful 1Thanks 0Love this 0Oh no 0 - Gina N.Freehold Township, NJ05Nov 15, 2017
I have battled with contacts to correct my terrible vision for nearly 20 years. I was scared, and hesitant for years now to commit to LASIK surgery - the irrational fear that I would be the 1 in 1000 that wasn't successful. Dr. Silverman put an end to all of those fears in my very first consultation as he took his time answering all of my questions, explaining the process and recovery in terms I could easily understand and never speaking in medical terms that had only confused and frightened me in the past.
My consult was thorough, and the staff members that lead me through step by step were friendly and knowledgeable. The day of my procedure I did wait a little longer than i had expected, but as with any doctors office schedules aren't exactly easy to maintain when patients scheduled before you are not on time.
It has been three days since my LASIK procedure and I could not be more pleased. I have already told friends and family who may have been on the fence to go see Dr. Silverman, and they will not be disappointed. Today I had to call the office with a question and it was answered by a nurse immediately - no need to leave a message or wait for a call back.
Thank you, Dr. Silverman, from the bottom of my heart and from my now perfect eyes. You've certainly changed my view of the world!Helpful 1Thanks 0Love this 0Oh no 0 - Lisa L.West Orange, NJ03Jun 3, 2016
I was Dr Silverman's first patient he performed the new Kamra procedure to alleviate the need for reading glasses, that's how much I trusted him. He's amazing. How awesome I won't need reading glasses anymore! He is so knowledgable about all these new procedures. His office staff is incredible. I had it done one week ago and each day my vision is getting better and better. Had lasik done by him years ago which was life changing and now this!
I would recommend him snd Eyecare2020 to everyone!Helpful 0Thanks 0Love this 0Oh no 0 - Bo B.Denville, NJ33733590Oct 8, 2015
Had a great experience with my Lasik surgery. Dr. Silverman was very thorough with testing before determining I was a good candidate for Lasik surgery.
The surgery was fast and painless. Less than ten minutes and I was done. The only bad part was that I couldn't go to the spa or in the lake for two weeks.
Facility is spotless and the staff are very friendly.
As an added bonus, I was the winner of the Apple watch drawing!Helpful 1Thanks 0Love this 0Oh no 0 - Cass C.East Hanover, NJ3374Jul 4, 2018
Been going here for 20 years, I see Dr. Xanthos and trust him 100% he is excellent. I have also recently seen Dr. Silverman and he was very nice and knowledgeable as well. I am looking into LASIK surgery and I definitely would want Dr. Silverman to be the one to perform it. Love the clean office and the nice atmosphere, everyone here is very nice and professional!

At eye care 20/20 they truly care about there patients and put them at ease by always being responsive.
My prk lasik surgery went so smooth and the doctor was extremely attentive to my every need and very professional. There was no wait time and all appointments happened right when they were scheduled for.
I would highly recommend dr Silverman for all of your eye needsHelpful 0Thanks 0Love this 0Oh no 0
