OFFICE HAS PERSONNEL THAT IS VERY, VERY FRIENDLY AND HELPFUL. MY WAIT WAS NOT LONG AT ALL, GOT RIGHT IN FOR MY TESTING. ONLY PROBLEM I HAD WAS TRYING TO FIND OUT WHEN MY LAST SCRIPT WAS FOR GLASSES. WOMAN AT DR DARINGTON'S OFFICE Show moreSAID SHE COULD NOT GIVE ME THAT INFORMATION. I COULD NOT REMEMBER WHEN I HAD THE EYE TEST AND IF MY PROBLEM WAS WITH GLASSES NEEDING ADJUSTMENT OR VISION. I HAD THE TEST WITH COVERING EACH EYE WITH THE PATCH AND YOUNG LADY SAID THAT WAS GOOD ENOUGH I COULD SEE WELL. DECIDED NOT TO HAVE EYE TEST. MY GLASSES ARE FOR NEAR AN DISTANT VISION. WENT TO COSTCO TO HAVE GLASSES ADJUSTED AND ASKED THE WOMAN ABOUT LAST SCRIPT. I DECIDED I SHOULD GET NEW GLASSES AS I WAS HAVING THEM ADJUSTED TOO MUCH AND MY VISION WAS AFFECTED. WOMAN GAVE ME THE PRINTOUT AND IT SHOWED 3 YEARS AGO. WE TALKED AND SHE SAID I COULD NOT GET NEW GLASSES AT COSTO AS I HAD MY EYE TEST AT DR DARLINGTON'S OFFICE ON 3/14/22 AND IT EXPIRED 1 YEAR FROM THAT DATE ON 3/14/23 PER DR DARLINGTON'S OFFICE. I ASSUME I WOULD HAVE HAD TO GET AN EYE EXAM BEFORE I COULD GET NEW GLASSES AT COSTCO AND SHE SAID YES. COSTCO WOULD NOT LET ME BUY GLASSES THERE BECAUSE OF EXPIRATION DATE. I NEVER HAD THIS PROBLEM BEFORE AND NEVER HEARD OF SUCH A THING. NOW I AM AT A LOSS AS TO WHAT TO DO. DON'T THINK MEDICARE WILL PAY FOR ME TO MAKE ANOTHER APPOINTMENT TO GET EYE TEST TO BUY NEW GLASSES. SUCH A DISPPOINTMENT FOR ME. IRONICALLY I HAD INTENDED TO GET AN EYE TEST WHILE I WAS THERE BUT DECIDED TO WAIT AND HAVE GLASSES CHECKED FIRST. CUSTOMERS SHOUD BE AWARE OF THIS PROCEDURE AHEAD OF TIME. I WAS TOLD THIS IS IS WITH ANY OUTSIDE EYEGLASS BUSINESS AS IT IS ON THEIR COMPUTERS.
Dr. Dowington is one of the best doctors I have ever ever met. I was going with Dr. McManus all those years and I did not know that Dr. Darlington was in the same building. Dr. Stroud has another very good person, but I had a lot Show moreof work from Dr McManus and he was he was good. He helped me, but Dr. Darlington is one of the best doctors around this area as far as on the State and everything he can he’s conscientious he tells the way it is The procedure that he does. The guy works 24 hours in the day his crew his nurses everything are all excellent, so please make sure that he might know or get this information or keeping it in his records or so because he’s one of the best doctors I’ve ever ever had. Please help me with my both of my eyes And I would I refer him to a lot of people in case that they might need somebody for an eye doctor, he’s very knowledgeable and glaucoma cataracts regular eyes God bless that man. He’s one of a time thank you John J Scholer.

I found all of the staff to be patient while doing tests and very gracious in answering all my questions.
I just completed may the last visit with dr.Darlington, after having cataract surgery, completed in both eyes. It was a wonderful experience.And now both my eyes are at twenty twenty. My vision had gotten pretty bad before the surgery. Now it is nice to be able to see clearly again. From beginning to end, the whole experience was terrific. Everyone was so helpful and the process was explained clearly step by step as we went through each visit
Professionalism and expertise personified. Dr. Darlington is a truly gifted eye surgeon who really knows his craft and stands behind his work to make sure his patients are beyond satisfied. I surely am. No more glasses and 20/20 vision again at 70! And he surrounds himself with friendly, competent nurses and office pros!
The whole process for my cataract surgery was quick and painless. Seemed to only take between 5 and 10 minutes.
He is compassionate and professional. Skilled and knowledgeable and I had a great outcome. The staff is pleasant and very caring.
The right eye cataract surgery went fine, no issues. When I had a laser surgery on left eye, I wound up next morning with eye inflammation, redness & watery eye which were all signs of Iritis which is treated with prednisone drops and was documented in my history that I suffer with Chronic Iritis. When I called 3 times (left voice mail messages) to ask if I can use my prednisone drops which is the correct method to treat this Iritis, I was told no when someone from the ofc at 3pm finally returned my call that I must see the Dr. & I could only make an apt on Friday in Merritt Island while he was already scheduled to do surgery and NOT to see patients. I would think that would be called a post opt visit which could have taken all of 5 mins and to be seen at the surgical center. I had to call my previous ophthalmologist for an apt who saw me immediately and I was given the prednisone drops. Then I was given an eye exam and the prescription only had vision site for distance and not for reading. I have worn progressive lenses for over 30 years and was never told I would need reading glasses or why the Dr. Did not think it was necessary to provide a script to include reading vision. I was disappointed and just rushed out and then the Dr. stated, it’s rare but sometimes the laser can cause Iritis inflammation…..I’ll stick with my former ophthalmologist any day.
He's amazing and very nice. Great, friendly knowledgeable staff!
Mad skills with everyone I came in contact with. Sue put me @ ease during testing but I failed to get the others names. Dr. Darlington lives up to his name….so nice, calming & easy on the eyes lol. The fist bump really got me!!
I have had the pleasure of receiving excellent care by Dr. Darlington over the past few years as I have received a successful cornea transplant and cataract removal by him. His expertise and follow-up care have been greatly appreciated and I look forward to receiving his top notch eye care service moving forward.
Great Doctor, go see him.
Everyone was professional in their services!

Dr. Darlington did the surgery on my eye lids and cataracts. It was done with ease and both with successful. I am very pleased with both surgeries.
Great Dr. From the receptionist in the office to the surgical unit group, everyone was very professional.
I was extremely pleased with Dr. Darlington and his staff and my recent cataract surgery. The support team was awesome from the ladies in the office to all the nurses and support staff, they are all knowledgeable, friendly/kind and well trained. Their efficiency and personal confidence gave me confidence. I was honestly nervous about the surgery but after meeting them and watching them work I was emboldened. Dr. Darlington was very friendly and outgoing, helping me to feel calm and protected. He was engaging with the staff and me in friendly banter. Telling me just wait till I saw the light show, which was awesome. I’m actually looking forward to having my second eye done in another week. Need some cataract work done? Dr. Darlington and his staff are the folks to see.
As I’m scheduled to have surgery soon, I had questions and concerns that I wanted to share with Dr Darlington. I was very pleased that he took the time to answer my questions and ease my concerns. Just knowing that we’re n the same page gives me peace of mind.
