Florida Eye Specialists

About this location

A few stories people tell about this place

1. A few years ago, every morning around sunrise, an old man started showing up outside Florida Eye Specialists' entrance. He carried a small bag and would carefully arrange flowers in front of the clinic's doors. No one knew who he was or why he did it, but soon everyone called him 'the flower guy.' One day, a delivery driver asked him, ‘Hey, old timer, what’s with the flowers?’ The old man just smiled and said, ‘They help remind people that even on cloudy days, there’s always light.’ Soon enough, everyone stopped asking questions and simply enjoyed his early-morning routine. Then, one sunny morning, no flowers appeared. A week later, someone spotted him sitting quietly inside the waiting room—turns out he was a retired optometrist who missed making patients smile.

2. At dawn each day, a delivery driver arrived with boxes piled high. But instead of heading inside Florida Eye Specialists, he’d place them neatly in the parking lot and leave without a word. One morning, a curious neighbor peeked into the boxes and found nothing but stacks of old newspapers. Turns out, it was just the daily paper delivery for the staff’s coffee breaks. Everyone laughed when they realized the mystery man had been delivering reading material all along.

3. Every night at precisely midnight, a soft humming began in the parking lot of Florida Eye Specialists. It grew louder as if someone were tuning a giant musical instrument, but no one could ever find its source. One night, an eager delivery driver pulled up just after midnight, thinking he’d found the cause—a mysterious van with flashing lights. But when he approached, it vanished into thin air. The next morning, everyone joked that maybe the doctor’s office was testing invisible teleportation technology for patients.

4. In the waiting room of Florida Eye Specialists, a small dog named Max had taken to staring intently at the ceiling. His owner shrugged it off until one day, Max started barking furiously whenever a particular doctor entered the hallway. Curious, the vet checked the ceiling and noticed an old poster advertising free eye exams for seniors. Max was actually reacting to his reflection in the glossy paper! The embarrassed owner apologized to the doctor, who smiled and said, ‘Don’t worry, I’ve seen stranger things happen here.’
