i was recommended by a friend because of my kids need to figure out how to play sports without glasses. Dr. Dean gave me the good solution and it works. Now after one year with Ortho-K lens my baseball son could play catcher at games with clear vision. And i don't need to worry about they might have troubles with daytime contact at school. Same as my daughter. Thanks for Dr. Dean! read more

I have been going to Dr Steinberger since he was in Studio City on Ventura. He is an excellent Dr very personable and has a super cool professional vibe. Everyone in his office is kind, accommodating and I always have a wonderful experience when I go. I highly recommend this office and Dr read more

I accidentally found the Advanced Optometry as I was walking. I went in and tried on some glasses which I liked most of them. So I went back to purchase my new lenses for reading and distance. I loved working with Noah who actually just started to work there and it was his first day!! He was very knowledgeable, knew all the products and he was very courteous and friendly. Also, the doctor double checked my eye site to make sure the measurements are correct on the papers I brought. I really appreciated what he did for me. It show how much he cares about his clients! I am so glad I found his business. I am recommending them wholeheartedly. Enjoy being treated the way you deserve! Blessings, Glyol read more

If you're looking for an eye doctor that knows exactly what to do go to this place Dr. Steinberger is a genius !On Christmas Eve I burned my eye by mistake with some cleaning material I couldn't see anything and I was panic. From the first phone call the front desk ladies was nice Over the phone when I told him about my situation they immediately found time for The doctor to see me. He took care of my burn and was kind enough to see me the following day on Christmas Day. Long story short he did a full exam on my eyes and when I got back for a check up he examined my vision and offered direction I didn't thought of with my vision options. He got me off my reading glasses and that blow my mind how come no one offered this option. My recommendation do not go to no one else when you need help with your vision !! read more

Advanced Optometry - Optometrists Near Me - Westlake Village, California

Absolutely never coming back to this business and would never recommend to anyone. I had called earlier in the day asking if we could come in the afternoon to get glasses for my daughter-they said yes of course. When we got there were met with a dog at the door, no leash. That's great you love dogs, but not everyone is so receptive of animals. And it's a doctors office, why is a dog allowed? The optometrist then JUMPED up and ran to the receptionist telling her "Just tell people no! We can't see them!" -talking about us in front of us. I would have gladly waited if they needed us to. They then told us we needed an appointment, never was that mentioned. Actually they say "walk ins welcome." Every single person that worked there was beyond rude and angry. No problem, I just won't ever go back. read more

Thank you for doing a wonderful job fixing my sunglasses! The nose piece has broken off twice on my Tom Fords. I brought them here both times to get fixed and they do a wonderful job and don't charge. They even cleaned them nicely. I offered a tip, but they said they can't accept tips. It's rare to get things for free these days. Thank you Advanced Optometrics! read more

Dr Steinberger and his team have been INCREDIBLE for our family! They have been quick to get us in and efficient in responding! Thankful to have them just around the corner!!! read more

From the moment you walk in here until the time you leave you are treated so well. They always welcome you so warmly, albeit with a temperature check these days... but that is another way to know that they are taking precautions and taking care of everyone, patients and staff included. Dean is always very thorough and friendly, with great chair side manner. Know that your eyes are in the right hands. The staff includes Stacy, Erica Eden and Alina, who are all amazing as well and help with everything, including giving objective advice on which frames make you look best. Their selection of lenses, frames and prices are great, too. This is by far the best experience I have had in regards to an eye exam and buying new glasses... PLUS, they always clean and adjust my other pairs as well. Thank you!!! read more

I was looking for a new eye doctor in my area when I found this place. The staff are lovely and the doctor is very knowledgeable and attentive, I will be a returning customer. read more

The staff is amazing! Very attentive and knowledge. First class company always willing to go the extra mile. Dr. Dean is so patient with his clients and always goes above and beyond to make the clients experience a five star experience!! Highly recommended! read more

Wow! I left this group very frustrated. I sent in my Tom Fords I paid $550 for, and they did a great job on the lenses but damaged the frames, which pissed me off, but I let it slide. I just went in to do another with Jacques Marie mage glasses and expressed my concern about the last incident and asked them to please take better precautions with these glasses, but the doctor refused to take my business. They refused to do the business because I asked for accountability with these glasses. WoW! I guess the expectation is that the frames can and will get damaged and that there isn't any accountability for this. Interesting . . . . . Take it for what you will. Just the Facts. read more

The day after Christmas, i was playing tennis and the ball ricocheted off my racquet right into my eye. I panicked as the eye was bleeding and was in pain:( Called the office and Dr. Steinberger talked to me and recommended that i come in right away. I was so relieved and literally one hour after injury, i was at his chair. He took such good care of me and did the exam and patched me up and relieved that it wasn't a major injury. Referred me to an ophthalmologist in West hills and currently being taken care of there. Thanks Dr. Steinberger for seeing me on a Sunday after hours . You are a life saver and That meant a lot to me read more

Never enjoyed an eye exam before now. Dr. Steinberger and his technicians are amazing. Will definitely be coming back!

Dean is so patient and professional , he really knows how to treat his patients. And has a lovely variety of eye glasses to choose from . I highly recommend his services. read more

I scheduled an appointment for an eye exam as my vision has suddenly become blurry from a bout of dry eyes. I was treated rudely by the insurance specialist at this office. My insurance company tried to explain to them that I am covered for the exam for which I was scheduled but they had checked in a system called eligibility.com which showed I had an HMO as a primary and not a PPO. This is untrue and my insurance company even tried to correct it with them but they refused to even check why the info in their system is incorrect. A grievance has been filed against this doctor an an investigation launched. I suggest you find another doctor who 1. treats patients with respect 2. has a competent medical insurance specialists who will follow up with the company they use to verify eligibility. Horrible experience and Dr Steinberger should be ashamed of himself. read more

Horrible! Bad prescriptions and they refused to stand behind their work. I went elsewhere and it was confirmed. Don't waste your well being.

Do be very careful about signing papers they give you without explanation . Bad experience

Advanced Optometry great service with a personal touch. Dr Dean is a rock star! Nice people.

This is such a happy place that I look forward to my visits with the doctors at this office! Lovely people!

This place is awful and they delete all their bad reviews. I posted a month ago on here. This place will overcharge you like crazy, and is very unprofessional read more

I just moved to the Thousand Oaks area and needed more contacts for the holidays. I'm extremely disappointed in my experience at Advanced Optometry in Thousand Oaks. After receiving my faxed prescription, and it came time to process my payment for my contacts. The doctor refused to allow me to process the payment without the physical health equity credit card present. This was a first, and this was extremely inconvenient, as I had just moved to the area and my card was left behind in Washington. The doctor expressed to me how they had been "burned way too many fu- times" before by customers in the past, so he wasn't willing to help me with any samples. This showed a complete lack of empathy and understanding. I understood the man entirely about being burned and being taken advantage of as I'm a business owner and from Ukraine and i know well of people taking advantage of you. I asked if I could just get by for the week with samples until the card could be received in the mail and he refused to my surprise. He said cash or card only instead of understanding my situation. Advanced Optometry put their own interests ahead of their future client and denied me the sample contacts I needed, he even said there's many other optometry locations nearby. Who says that? It's a shame that a business in such a beautiful and upscale neighborhood would treat new customers so poorly. I have seen many eye doctors in the past, and I have never been denied sample contacts for any reason, to get by for the week. They have lost my future business and the future business of my family and friends, as I would never recommend them to anyone. It's a sad reality to see a business that puts profit ahead of people and fails to provide the good service and care that their customers deserve. I hope you consider in advance before coming to see them for yourself. It was clear they were more interested in making money than in helping me. I'll be walking by faith and not by sight this holiday season! Happy holidays and may it be a great new year for everyone! read more

Our DO we used to have in LA went into semi-retirement and we had to find a replacement. Enter Advanced Optometrics and Dr Dean Steinberger, who is a total pro. Wifey was diagnosed with cataracts and some type of retinopathy, and referred to ophthalmic surgery stat. She begged for prescription lenses but Dr Steinberger flat out told her that she wouldn't be comfortable with anything he would prescribe until the cataracts are gone. Makes a lot of sense! The exam fee was definitely commensurate with experience and the latest in equipment - no more "ouchy" eye drops, and instead brand new machinery, some of which was like looking at neon shows in Las Vegas - fun instead of pain. Highly recommended! read more

Highly recommended!! I am currently one of the people affected by the strikes and my doctor here worked with me an discounted services for the Hollywood crowd. I am hard to fit and they are very patient to work with me to find a proper fit for both contacts and glasses. read more

Their main issue is calling back when they say they will. Don't get me wrong. They're really nice over there, albeit a bit over priced. But they are nice folks. But they promise call backs that often don't come. I'm actually waiting on one now. Haha. From three weeks ago. So it's hard to recommend the business whole heartedly. read more

Thank you, Dr. Emily Schwartz! I was drawn to Advanced Optometry because of the excellent reputation of Dr. Dean Steinberger, which is well-deserved as he provided excellent oversight care. I feel motivated to share my patient story, though, because of my experience with Dr. Emily Schwartz, who managed my LASIK pre- and post-procedural care. Not only is she a knowledgeable, thorough and compassionate physician, Dr. Schwartz is also a kind and considerate person. She eased my pre-surgery nerves by taking time to listen to my concerns, explain the science of eye health and share patient anecdotes. After the procedure, she communicated with the surgeon during follow-up exams in real-time via text and email to ensure even the minor discomfort I had was closely monitored and quickly resolved. Before Lasik, I had worn glasses for 30 years and contacts lenses for more than two decades. That is to say, I've been to countless eye doctors. Moreover, against the backdrop of a global pandemic, seeking healthcare can feel like an arduous even scary process - which is why when I found an excellent doctor like Emily Schwartz, I thought it important to acknowledge her exemplary service and share my experience with others. It's also worth noting that scheduling my surgery and subsequent follow-up visits with Dr. Schwartz was seamless thanks to Office Manager Cori Segel and the team at Advanced Optometry - all who helped make preparing for and recovering from my surgery stress-free. read more

Office staff are efficient and friendly. Dr Doesn't make you wait. Very intelligent and kind man. Had eyeglass and contact fitting and I was out in just about 40 minutes. I wasn't rushed just a priority during my appointment. I highly recommend Advanced Optometrics. read more

In short- I had a minor eye injury this past weekend. I was advised to go to my hospital system's ER but did not due to my concerns on safety and their capacity due to COVID. I was self admittedly completely panicked as I have never experienced an acute onset issue w my eyesight. I called Dr Steinberger's office (was not a patient even) and they had an emergency text service. He spoke at length to me on Sunday about my issue and was able to see me Monday morning. Fast forward today - and after getting seen right away by a retina specialist as well that he connected me to - my eye has recovered. Everything turn out fine but it was an unsettling 24 hour period and I am very grateful for Dr. Steinberger and his team's care! I only wish there was a 6 star option! read more

I am very thanful to Doctor Dean Weinberger OD for seeing me in urgent matter and providing me excellent very professional help.

Will certainly come back for optometry needs. read more

This was the best medical optical experience I've ever had. Walking up to the office I was kindly greeted with a wave and hello by Stacy. She directed me to Alina at the front desk, and Dr. Shew took great care of me during my appointment. They answered all my questions with informative answers. Stacy helped me choose the perfect frames for my face. Everyone in the office helped make this a great doctors appointment. I recommend coming here for any of your optical needs. read more

Stacy and Erika at Advanced Optometrics are truly amazing. They can find a frame for any face shape.

I went in for new glasses and had a very positive experience. All the girls at the front were very helpful and patient with helping me through the process of deciding on new glasses. They stock a great selection of current stylish frames as well. I would highly recommend Advanced Optometrics! read more

I was going in for a routine eye exam, and my doctor, Dr. Emily Schwartz, discovered a tear in my retina! She immediately got the amazing staff at Advanced to call Retina Partners to get me in at the last minute, for an emergency laser retinal procedure to repair the problem. Dr. Cao at R.P. waited for me to drive the 45 minutes past closing, to perform the procedure. If not for Dr. Schwartz' diligent cross checking and verifying the problem, I could have lost vision in my left eye. She is thorough and conscientious. Very confident in her abilities! I can't recommend her highly enough! read more

What a pleasant service, I went in to ask if I can try on some glasses. The stuff here very helpful, they are friendly and helpful. Giving me suggestions on what type will fit my face. I was so happy to purchase this Tom Ford black frame reading glasses. I got many complements. Thank you!!! I will be back soon. read more
