Why Choose Us
Why choose Beyond 2020?
Great eye care takes two things: doctors who take the time to listen and explain, and a team that makes every step of your visit easy. Patients tell us they find both here, and this page shares their words.
★★★★★“Beyond 2020 Vision has given my 93‑year‑old mother a new outlook on life. After being told by her doctor that her prescription was “as good as it was going to get” due to [her eye condition], we felt defeated—but not willing to give up. We decided to try Beyond 2020 Vision and Dr. Tumolo, and thank heavens we did.
Dr. Tumolo is truly my hero. He gave my mother the most thorough exam she has ever received and recommended a specialized lens tailored to her needs. The difference has been extraordinary. She no longer sees the world as fuzzy and gray—her vision is clearer, sharper, and more vibrant. Even more importantly, her confidence and overall outlook on life have improved dramatically.
I cannot thank Dr. Tumolo and the entire office staff enough. Every single person we interacted with was kind, patient, and genuinely invested in helping my mother. Everyone was GREAT.
Beyond 2020 Vision didn’t just improve her sight—they improved her quality of life. I am endlessly grateful.”
