I have dealt with Ron since he took over from Dr Gray. Always first class and kept up with the times. I moved away from Uxbridge awhile back. I will never seek an new eye doctor.

Dr McMullen spent a lot of time with me understanding my requirements for sunglasses for flying. The end result is I have an amazing pair of prescription sunglasses glasses that work exactly as required. Thanks !!!!

I absolutely love this office. The ladies are so nice at the front desk. Dr. Ron treated me so well and was so quick and painless. He answered all my question and I was able to order contacts and have them within days. I would recommend Dr. Ron McMullen to anyone I know. Thanks!

The WORST experience I have ever had with an optometrist! A referral to treat an eye trauma was NEVER SENT! We waited with blurred vision, unable to work for 3 week to see a surgeon that an EMERGENCY ROOM DOCTOR had to refer us to because Dr Ron McMullen's office never sent a referral or followed up to see if it went through to a surgeon. Even though we had called twice to see what the hold up was. Your vision is not something you want to play around with. Hopefully there is not long term damage.
Here's what happened:
We came in to the office for an eye trauma. After 3 days the condition got
