I have been coming here for a few years and have seen Dr. Burke (before he retired), Dr. Yoo and…read moreDr.Lee. The front staff is friendly and helpful, and it's easy to get an appointment. The reason for the four stars instead of five is that I was asked several times (by the staff and doctor) if I wanted glasses as well as contacts. I get an annual exam mainly due to needing more contact lens. I wear only one (mono vision) and have had the same RX for several years. It felt like they were just trying to sell me glasses, when I was very clear I didn't want them. I also don't know why I'm charged for a "contact fitting exam" (~$130 + my "regular eye exam") when I wear the same contact year after year. Luckily, I have VSP and it covers this, but it seems unnecessary to do this unless I'm having problems with my contacts. They did give me samples of my contact lenses since I was leaving on vacation and was running out.

Both sets had to be redone and I had to go back in for another eye exam to sort things out. I will not be going back there for exams again. The staff are super courteous but the system is not good at all. They send you texts saying your glasses are ready, but they aren't actually ready. You swing by and find out that you have to wait for a call from them before they are ready for pickup. So I had to just ignore multiple texts saying my glasses were ready, and wasted time making a trip to the store. By the time I'm about to pick up the glasses the second time I have very little faith that things will turn out OK. I was understanding and courteous the entire time, but it was frustrating. When I picked them up they were good the second time, but the fitting was rushed and I felt like the staff member just wanted to get me out of there quickly. Final note: the prices. They may not have any control over this at the store but the pricing is just too high. Luxottica is ripping people off. I have very good insurance (EyeMed) and haven't gotten glasses or contacts in 2 years, yet I still had to pay hundreds of dollars to get these new ones. That's just not right. Next time I'm going elsewhere.

I called Dr. Poulin's office one morning when an inflamed eye had become almost unbearable…read more His staff fit me in that same morning, unlike others who wanted me to wait 10 or 12 days to get in. I spent at most 15 minutes in the nice lobby area before being called to the exam room. He spent quite a lot of time diagnosing the problem with my eye and then efficiently removed something that was blocking a tear duct, and gave me some prescription eye drops for the underlying problem, with instructions to call back next morning to check the progress. By the next morning, my eye was much, much better!

This was the first year it was recommended I need bifocals at 43. I was shocked! He explained with my reliance on my iPad and smart phone my regular prescription would be too strong for reading and that's why such weak prescription on the bottom. Considering I can't make out the letter E on the top of the chart and then attempting to read on the top of my glasses he was right. From experience other doctors miss nuances like this. It's where an average doctor moves up a star for having reviewed my chart well enough to know I now do my magazine and newspaper subscriptions reading on my iPad Mini. Several years ago he did my sister's post-op care and noticed an infection before she was even aware of it yet. That gave him the fifth star as I was in that visit.

The optometrist started the exam and asked some questions, since I hadn't had an exam since I had my lasik surgery years ago, he suggested to get the extra check ups, eye pressure... but he didn't push he just suggested and I did decide to do it. Great customer service, knowledgeable. We tried different contact lenses until the third pair was tried, and that was the best one. Very patient and not rushing the exam, answered questions I had. And he gave me prescriptions for both eyeglasses and contacts, without me having to ask or him pushing me to buy glasses there. Will definitely use this as my future exam place!!
