Dr. Janay Sekhon is my doctor and is the absolute best. I have been coming here for well over 15 years. Everyone is so nice and helpful. I can't say enough though about Dr. Janay: she is so kind, sweet, and pleasure to talk with, every time I go in. She happens to also be amazing at her job; knowing how my eyes are over the years and what makes my vision perfect for me. She listens to what I need and makes it happen. If I could give her 10 stars I would.

Love this place

They are amazing. They're so kind and caring and they got great Glasses to choose from

Dr. Germundsen, very kind and professional. She went above & beyond with the level of professional quality care I received. The girl that helped me pick out my glasses was incredibly patient and helpful making my decision. She broke everything down for me cost wise with my insurance factored in which was very easy to understand. Excellent frame selection. Tom Ford, Tory Burch, RayBan, Costa, Maui Jim-Doctors go beyond a regular eye exam! You get the most comprehensive exam and detailed explanation. THANK YOU!!!

Oakley progressive sunglasses! They are pure perfection!!!!

Hi, do you guys accept MEDICAL insurance here?

This is an optometry office, so they accept vision insurance. Ophthalmologists treat eye disease, which is often covered by medical insurance.

Been thinking about getting LASIK and I finally decided to get it done after extensive research. I…read morechose this place based on positive reviews here on yelp and responsiveness during my initial inquiries. First, I scheduled a virtual consult on a Friday which took about 15minutes. The staff was able to answer majority of my questions. After which, I went on a Tuesday to have the in-person check up and scans done. I went to determine if I was a candidate for PRK (4-day recovery) or LASIK (1-day recovery). Shelly was the one who assisted me. Then my surgery was scheduled that Friday. I arrived at 12:30pm as schedule. The scans were redone for accuracy. The LASIK procedure was done at around 2pm and lasted for approximately 15mins. They give you valium 30minutes before and Xanax after to help you sleep. The process I would say is 5/10 in terms of pain. There's a pressure in your eye then the laser. After the procedure, there's a lot of burning's sensation and it's difficult to open your eyes. That's why they recommend to sleep for at least 6 hours to give your eyes a rest and recover. They give you eye shields and glasses and there will be eye medications that you need to instill for 7days and eye drops for 3 months. You need to come back the following day for a follow up. The following morning, I am able to see clearly but a little bit cloudy. Both doctors were nice and have a great bedside manner. Overall, I highly recommend this place for LASIK. They do have payment options, one of is care credit, 18months zero interest.

When I went in for a consult, I was unfortunately not a good candidate for LASIK. Dr. Feinerman suggested another procedure called EVO ICL (Implantable Collamer Lens) that I was a good fit for. Despite the higher cost compared to LASIK, I was totally on board. I scheduled my surgery appointment afterwards and I was given instructions on how to prepare for the procedure (I had to put eye drops in beforehand). The surgery center Dr. Feinerman used was in Tustin (Barranca Surgery Center). I had a very early appointment and I didn't have to wait too long. The procedure took what felt like 10 minutes, but could have been way longer (the anesthesia worked like a charm!). I had my sister drive me home, there is no way you should try to drive yourself home after getting this done!! Immediately after the surgery, my vision had a noticeable improvement, with sensitivity to light. Over the next 3 months, my vision stabilized and I don't have dry eyes as often anymore. Dr. Feinerman and his entire team were a pleasure to interact with. Totally recommend this place!!

The first warning sign was the daily intrusive marketing emails and texts that started almost…read moreimmediately after I scheduled my appointment. It took more effort than it should have to finally unsubscribe from them. More concerning was my recent cataract follow-up appointment. After the exam, the front office refused to provide my eyeglass prescription, stating that I would need to schedule and pay for a separate refractive exam appointment. When I questioned this, staff consulted with Dr. Novik, who confirmed that this was the office policy. I was only able to obtain my prescription after standing up for myself, at which point another doctor made an exception and released it. The FTC Eyeglass Rule (16 C.F.R. Part 456) has been in effect since 1978 and requires patients to be provided their prescription automatically after any exam that includes a refraction, regardless of the appointment type and without requiring the patient to ask. After I complained, the office responded by saying they would address the issue with their staff, although I remain doubtful that meaningful changes will occur. They also asked me to remove my honest, fact-based review, which further undermined my confidence in the office's integrity. The overall experience gave me the impression of a predatory business focused on generating additional appointments and revenue. A friend later told me she also had a bad experience there and described similar questionable business practices. I will not be returning.

Not being educated on what EVOicl, Lasik, and smile treatments are, I came into my first consultations not knowing a thing. Needless to say my counselor Christine took the lead in enlightening me on which procedure was right for my eyes. For context, my eyes were both around -6.5 with bad astigmatism. She ran through the entire process and explained what to expect going into my operation. Overall, from the beginning to the end, I felt safe, secure, and well-educated in every step of the process. The surgery itself was held at their Rowland Heights location, and the office staff/ doctors were super friendly and helpful. Dr Patrick Pham knew what to say to relieve any stress going into the treatment, and was well spoken throughout. With their multiple branches, I had the pleasure of going to their Westminster location for my post-op appointments. If you're looking to get eye surgery done, look no further. IQ Laser will get you right. I am beyond happy to exclude contacts from my daily routine!

When I told her I was interested in RLE surgery, she lit up and a huge smile came across her face! Because it is the pricier vision surgery. A consultation would be learning about the patient and making recommendations. Nope, the entire time was pushing the surgery and a particular surgeon who I could only meet after I put down a $100 refundable deposit to lock in their 1k discount offer. This is eye surgery!!!! Not buying a used car or getting a gym membership. Prior to this place, I have had several enlightening consultations with the surgeons themselves. I wouldn't trust my eyes to this extremely tacky place.

Luckily, I found Sunset Optometry through my insurance and was able to book a much needed appointment quickly. Melina, who handled my pre-testing before I met with Dr. Nguyen, was incredibly patient and understanding. She took the time to explain each test and what it was for, which really helped me feel more comfortable. When I met with Dr. Nguyen, she immediately put me at ease. She was thorough and thoughtful while perfecting my prescription, carefully walking me through each option and giving me time when I felt unsure. She also explained my astigmatism in a way that was easy to understand. I had no idea I even had astigmatism before! On top of that, she was able to identify the cause of my eye irritation and recommended eye drops that have been extremely helpful. After my exam, I went back out to choose a pair of glasses, and Melina jumped right in to help again. She spent a good amount of time walking me through different frames, explaining how things like weight and nose pads can make a big difference in comfort. To top it all off, she actually picked out the pair I ended up loving and chose to get! I'm so excited to get my new glasses and incredibly grateful to both Dr. Nguyen and Melina for making the entire experience so comfortable and positive. If you've been putting off an eye exam or feel nervous like I did, this is absolutely the place to go they truly go above and beyond to take care of you and your eyes.
