The optometrist seems good. But they have a very poor selection of frames. Heavily marked-up prices. Be careful while selecting your frame, as some of them are quite old and possibly used.. read more

This small shop has the nicest most helpful staff that I've ever run into in my 25 years of wearing glasses. The small shop is packed with a fantastic selection of glasses and eyeglasses. Of course they also do eye exams and contact lenses as well with an active lifestyle and two toddlers. I have mishaps with my glasses frequently and they always work hard to see if they can warranty my lenses or frames or both when they break. I even had a situation in which my frames broke and were discontinued so I thought my relatively new lenses would be useless, but they were able to find another set of frames that match the specs exactly. If you want a great eye exam from a friendly doctor, call and ask for Dr. Bahn. If you already have a prescription, I need help finding glasses and ask for Wendy. read more

I hadn't been to an optometrist in a long time, but Dr. Hwang and the staff at C. Sharp Optometry made the experience fantastic from start to finish. Everyone was friendly, knowledgeable, and professional. They took the time to thoroughly answer my questions and explain everything in a way that was easy to understand. I truly felt cared for throughout the entire visit. I highly recommend C. Sharp Optometry for anyone looking for excellent vision care! read more

Love the selection of eyewear. Doctor was great and appointment was easy to make. Would recommend this place!!!

The staff here are fantastic, and Dr. Chuong Banh is especially kind and knowledgeable. After discovering that my initial eyeglass frame was peeling, Dr. Banh helped me replace it very quickly. Later, when my replacement frame broke, he kindly lent me the peeling one while my new frame was on the way. This thoughtful gesture ensured I wouldn't have to wait without eyeglasses, especially since my old pair had a slightly different prescription. read more

C.Sharp Optometry - Optometrists Near Me - Sunnyvale, California

We had our eye exams from here recently and had a great experience. Very thorough in their approach. Did not feel rushed, very patient with questions as well. read more

Professional, fast, and painless. I called on a Tuesday to get my kid in as a new patient. I said I'd take the first available and they just happened to have some cancellations for the following day (amazing!). Got to the appointment a few minutes early, filled out one sheet of paper that was prefilled out with my kids name (also amazing!), waited a few minutes to see the doctor, and bam we were in! After the appointment we were able to get a doctors note emailed to us for school excuse. We didn't need any corrective lenses so we didn't have to go through that process but I'd recommend this place if you're looking for a new Optometrist. read more

C.Sharp Optometry - Optometrists Near Me - Sunnyvale, California

Great doctors, thorough exams, no unwanted add-ons, decent prices, and great staff and technicians.

I enjoyed my first appointment with Dr. Banh. He was a nerd in the best sense of the word - volunteering information on my eye condition, very open to my questions, providing very clear explanations! I never felt rushed, his pricing on contacts are the same as the Eyeconic online insurance pricing, and there was no pressure to purchase directly from him. His office is small, which means it feels very personable. I have a few other options closer to home that were OK, but this visit convinced me that Dr. Banh is worth the trip. I'll be back for my annual exams! read more

The visit went mostly smooth and felt well organized from start to end. The staff at the front was welcoming and kept things moving without making it feel rushed. I had to wait a bit in the room but nothing too long. The doctor was pretty thorough and asked a lot of questions about how I've been feeling lately, not just physically but also about sleep and energy levels. It didn't feel like they were going through a checklist but more like they were trying to really get a full picture. They spent a decent amount of time talking through some options and lifestyle things I might try. I appreciated that they weren't pushing anything but explained things in a simple way. They also made sure to double check how I reacted to previous treatments which I found helpful since I sometimes forget what worked and what didn't. The nurse who followed up after the doctor was also good at breaking things down and writing a few things out for me to take home which was useful. Overall I felt listened to and that the doctor was actually paying attention not just doing their job. It wasn't perfect but I'd come back again. read more

This is probably the best vision place Ive been to. I had an appointment and I was taken in right away. Dr Julie does the exams fast and listen to my questions and concerns. I was in and out of there in under 20 min. All the staffs there are very professional and friendly. Booking appointments over the phone is super easy as well. The office is small but not crowded. My only wish is that I wish there's a way to book appointments online or via email. read more

Dr. Hwang is kind and patient, and took the time to answer all of my questions. My appointment did not feel rushed at all and she was very knowledgable about the lasik process as well. I'm a new patient to this location as it's close to home and am very glad to have picked this office. The front desk is also friendly and are able to respond to text messages as well. Side note: C Sharp is in the same plaza as Tong Sui - you can get glasses and a delicious dessert all in one visit read more

I definitely recommend this practice and Dr. Bahn especially. He's patient and friendly. I didn't feel one bit pressured to buy anything from their store. I went in for contact lens and he was willing to have me try a couple of different brands and power levels to give me the correction I needed. Plus, the trial lens he had me try were completely free. Even for my family member's eye glass prescriptions, he immediately provided the prescription for us and didn't try to sell us their stuff before handing it over. read more

Fantastic staff and doctor, would definitely recommend! ​Everyone was friendly and helpful. I didn't feel like they tried upselling anything, just genuinely there for their customers. The team was thorough with any questions and they remembered their patients regardless of the time that passed. read more

tl;dr Small shop but friendly people! Large array of decently priced frames. I came here for the first time for my annual eye exam. I was initially surprised by the very small size of the shop. There is like one chair for the waiting area and presumably only one examination room. Seems like there is only one doctor too, but I could be wrong. Despite this, the team was lovely to interact with, and I especially enjoyed my eye exam with Dr. Bahn. I'd always thought my previous optometrists were just carrying out the exam without really being interested in the patient or engaging, but I felt like Dr. Bahn was more fun and engaging while his advice also built trust in his medical experience. I'll be returning to browse their frame selection! read more

* Excellent service and knowledgable doctor * Friendly and efficient front office staff * Almost no waiting time * Patient with kids eye exams as well It was easy to get their appointment. I had recently called them to get rebate forms and receipts (about 1 month after my appointment) and they sent it happily in few minutes. Only con: Their chairs in the store/waiting area are extremely uncomfortable. It was difficult to work from the waiting area while I was waiting for my family. Other than that, five star service from the doctor and staff. read more

Short wait before my appointment. The staff and optometrist were very attentive. They let me take home some trial contacts to see which strengths were most comfortable day to day. read more

Going here was a great experience, and I highly recommend. Everyone here is so professional and kind and patient. Dr. Bahn was happy to explain everything as he was going through the tests and made sure to answer all my questions. He has a great 'bedside manner' and made sure I was comfortable. Any extras offered that are not covered by insurance are very clear ("We can do this test too, but it will be an extra $40") and not pushed if you say no. They DO NOT try to "upsell" which is such a breath of fresh air. I have had bad experiences with other optometry places in the past, so it was wonderful to be able to relax here and know I'm being taken care of. read more

When renewing my driver license , I haven't pas sight test and DMV asked me to see my eye doctor . There has only 5 day (include 3day long weekend) my license will be expiring. I called c.sharp, The staff and doctor was so friendly and high efficient. the earliest day is 9/4, which is 2 day passed my deadline. they promised would call me if anybody canceled appointment. To my surprise is they called me when I just back to home, said Dr. Bamh would see me on 8/30,Friday, before opening! Dr. Bamh rechecked my eye, and found there was change compare to six month ago, and need a new glasses. He said it will be ready in 1 to 2 week. Then I bring his comments to DMV immediately , and DMV gave me a temporary license and scheduled a sight road test on 9/10 with new glasses. That is best result I could have. Thanks Dr. Bamh and his staff, for they excellent help , read more

Dr. Hwang is great. She is extremely professional, efficient with great bedside manner. I can see why there are great reviews. I will definitely be back and recommend this office to my partner too. read more

Came here for a new pair of glasses and I really enjoyed the selection (I got a pair of Paul Smiths) and the workers were super friendly!

Have been going here every year since the place opened in 2015. Nice selection and always polite and helpful staff. Gets crowded towards end of the year so better to take appointment earlier. read more

I don't write many reviews, but I feel compelled to write a good one today. I had a great experience with Dr. Banh. Three things stood out to me: 1. My previous optometrist decreased my prescription from 2.75 to 2.5 without explaining, which had always been mysterious to me. Dr. Bahn explained how it's possible to be in between two prescriptions and demonstrated how my lens preference differed for close and far distances. 2. Dr. Bahn recommended I use daily contact lenses, which would save me money. My previous optometrist sold me monthly contact lenses even though I only wear contacts very infrequently. 3. Dr. Bahn shared knowledge about LASIK with me even though that might decrease my future business with his office. I got the impression that he wanted to be the best possible doctor and not just increase his own business. Overall, I highly recommend this optometry office. read more

Dr. Banh and his staff are amazing. He's so attentive and you can tell he really loves what he does. I had a tight schedule due to my wedding and he was very accommodating. He offered to come in on his day off or come in earlier to meet my husband and I. We moved further away, but we will never go to anyone else! I can't recommend him enough. read more

I had a very bad experience at a previous optometrist. The effect was that I ended up paying a bunch of money for bad glasses that I could use and I could not retrieve my prescription. So with my terrible vision and multiple eye surgeries I had to start from square one. I called 5 different optometrists when trying to find a new one. Only C.Sharp answered all of my questions and they did so in a completely professional manner. At the end of the call I made an appointment. I went in for my examination and they treated me so well. They took my old glasses then gave me the exam. The doctor was friendly and really tried to make my experience nice. They gave me an option of buying two pairs of glasses. One for computers and my regular prescription. I am a software test engineer so that sounded great. I have never had that offered in the past. I picked out killer frames and placed an order. They said 2 weeks and they came in faster. (My old doctor quoted 6 weeks then took 8.) I got the glasses and after 2 weeks realized the computer ones were not right. I took them in an spoke with the office and the same doctor. They figured out the issue and for no charge ordered new lenses. This time it took less than a week! I went back and they were perfect. I am wearing them now and loving them to bits. -= This is the best optometrist I have visited by far in my 40 years of wearing glasses. They make sure the customer is completely happy with their order. Next year I am getting prescription sunglasses! Can't wait! =- read more

Dr Banh is wonderful! He is super knowledgeable, extremely thorough and and overall a really nice person. He always takes time to explain things and goes out of his way to find the best solution for his patients. I highly recommend choosing C.Sharp for your vision needs! read more

I am very satisfied with C Sharp Optometry. Dr. Bahn is very friendly and explains everything. I tried different optometrists in the Bay Area before and I believe Dr. Bahn is the best. read more

C.Sharp is the best optometrist office I've been to out of multiple places. There is zero upselling to fancier brand names for glasses. Compared to other places like Golden Vision and Gary Gold, the final bill for the glasses at C.Sharp was about 1/4 (yes, that's about 25%, or about 75% less) of the cost of these other places. Upselling at these other places happened by stocking only much more expensive frames on display. C.Sharp also gave measured advice about eye health based on the retinal scan. Whereas another place gave alarmist feedback about the heightened risk of blindness, C.Sharp did not. I also got my daughter's glasses here and was very pleased with the customer experience. Despite my daughter taking her time to carefully choose glasses frames well past closing time, the C.Sharp staff patiently waited. read more

Hands down the BEST experience I've had at an optometrist's office! Compared to my last optometrist's office, which was a high-pressured sales environment, Dr. Banh's office was professional and clearly willing to work in my best interest as the patient. Dr. Banh is a great doctor. His staff are also amazing. I made an appointment for a contact lens exam via phone and filled out a get-to-know-you form before being brought back for the exam. Dr. Banh was patient, knowledgeable, and overall very easygoing. I trusted he knew what was best for me. Dr. Banh and his staff also get along super well with each other, which is always a great sign at any doctor's office! I came in knowing exactly which contacts I wanted to purchase (Acuvue Define 1-Day in Natural Shine). Dr. Banh and staff didn't try to sell me something different. I really appreciated this; they special ordered my desired contacts since they didn't have any in stock. Before leaving, they gave me a 2 week supply of samples so that I wouldn't have to go without my new prescription while waiting for my ordered contacts to arrive. Special shout out to Alan, who helped me navigate my dual insurance coverage (with VSP) to maximize my benefits and out-of-pocket savings. Alan was super knowledgeable and friendly. Will be back for all my optometry needs and highly recommend to everyone! read more

Such a great experience at C Sharp Optometry, every time that I have been here! All the staff here is amazing. Dr. Banh is very competent, and super friendly. He went above and beyond to ensure a great experience for me. One of the glasses I ordered broke, just before I was about to move out of the country. Dr. Banh let me choose any frame I wanted to replace the old one, free of charge, and also sent it to me to my international address. Also, in the current time of COVID-19, they are taking all the due precautions. I felt very safe in this store. Highly recommend C Sharp Optometry! read more

Dr. Hwang and her staff continue to be consistent in the excellent quality of their services. - The computer glasses I had been prescribed initially was too strong. They reduced the prism on it and re-made the lens for free. - In another visit, I brought in custom frames and was able to buy just the lenses for them for driving, using a modification of my driving prescription to work with contacts. - The custom frames + lenses were not working properly (still seeing double vision) - they scheduled an appointment to take a look - Today's appointment was to figure out the issue with the custom lenses. Dr. Hwang continued to be great with her bedside manners and addressing my concerns. We found out the prescription needed to be adjusted again and the lens will be re-made at no cost. - Same appointment - it wasn't part of the agenda, but I brought in my computer glasses as even after the re-make it felt off still, and the doctor was happy to help fix the prescription on it (it needed a further reduction in prism); the re-make was also free - I needed chart data to send to a doctor, and they were able to quickly email it to me (they also offered to fax it as well) - I also saw another optometrist for a different issue / second opinion during this time and both were in alignment with their opinions; I appreciated that Dr. Hwang wasn't bothered by this and my experience with her was better than the other optometrist I saw I think I've visited the office around five times at this point in the past few months for various things, and each experience has always been delightful. Please consider this office for your vision needs! read more

=== Knowledgeable, Helpful, Kind, Detailed, Safe === I had been going to the same optometrist for more than a decade. Imagine my horror when I found out he was moving. I scrambled and C.Sharp seemed to have a lot of positive reviews here so I made appointments for standard eye exams for my entire family. C.Sharp exceeded expectations. + Setting up appointments was super easy. Both Alan and Wendy were helpful and patient trying to get my entire family in for eye exams. Alan got a few details and within minutes, could read out to me exactly what my VSP (vision) insurance covered. + When we came in for our exam, Wendy remembered every detail we discussed. Impressed! + Dr. Julie Hwang was patient with myself and my two kids. She was kind to them, answered their questions. Good with kids. Especially since my kids had never had an eye exam before and were thus nervous. + Dr. Hwang was very thorough. The exams weren't rushed and she frequently took the time to explain things to me or my kids. Worth noting that unlike many offices I've been to before, they schedule accordingly so that the OD can take any time necessary to examine and explain. + Dr. Hwang was knowledgeable. She noticed an anomaly in my eyes, and said she didn't have the equipment to investigate further so she wrote me a referral to a specialist in my healthcare network. No one likes finding this out in a routine eye exam, but she took the time to explain it, show me images and information online so that I wasn't panicked. + Dr. Hwang and Wendy both noticed that my particular VSP plan allowed for sunglasses up to $150 and pointed that out. + Wendy took the time with my kids and I to try on styles, offer advice. At no times was she pushy. + They took a lot of precautions during these COVID times. They intentionally schedule light -- to even pick up any frames/lenses/etc, you need to make an appointment. They don't allow multiple parties to shop for lenses at the same time. They enforce hand sanitization at the door and take contact-less temperature before they allow you in. Felt very safe going inside. Honestly, no negatives so far. Been super impressed with how knowledgeable and professional they are. Thanks Yelpers for another great discovery! read more

I just got back from my eye exam and wanted to leave a review because I had such a great experience! The biggest thing I appreciated about this office is that they're not pushy at all. All the previous optometry offices I've gone to do not honor my decisions which has always made me uncomfortable. Ex: The retinal scan via machine isn't fully covered by my insurance so I would decline it or say I want the one where I need drops in my eyes yet it would take some time for them to accept my decline. The receptionist I saw at C.Sharp said off the bat that it was optional which I haven't seen elsewhere. Dr. Hwang was super thorough and efficient. I needed to change my contacts and when I tried on the ones she recommended they were super comfortable and such a great match. This will be the office that I go to each year and will recommend it to my family and friends as well! read more

As a new patient, I was a little anxious coming into this office at the end of the year, under a new employer's insurance. And wow, did the staff take care of me! From the very beginning of my visit, it was so clear that they were prioritizing my experience and in making sure that I felt comfortable and informed with my choices. The doc didn't make me feel patronized with my questions, and the staff took their time to help me understand my insurance plan and bills. It's so rare to get this kind of quality with optometrist services these days, and I feel lucky to have found them. I'm going to be a loyal regular patient for years to come! read more

I've been a patient at C.Sharp Optometry for a few years now since I've moved to the Bay Area. I see Dr. Julie Hwang. She is very kind and knowledgable. I enjoy meeting with her once/year for my annual exams. I have both contact lenses and glasses. I have also purchased both (contacts and glasses) from the practice. Dr. Hwang provides printed prescriptions at the end of the visit if you want to buy contacts or glasses from somewhere else (no pressure to buy there) or the staff provides excellent guidance in utilizing the max benefits with my insurance. The staff has always been helpful, organized, and a pleasure to work with. I am so fortunate they are in-network with my insurance. I definitely recommend them. read more

Thankful for Wendy !!! I had come in with severely damaged frames from sleeping all over them and Wendy was so kind and thorough in getting back into a wearable condition. Wendy you are a hero !!! read more

Very impressed with the team here. I've been wearing glasses for 35 years and I've never had an optometrist take so much time to make sure fitted right: I think this is the first time I've ever had correctly fitted glasses that stay in the right place comfortably! It's not the biggest selection that you'll ever find, but I was able to find both glasses and prescription sunglasses that I'm very happy with. Handled my insurance very company with no fuss. read more

Dr. Banh was professional, knowledgeable and even took the time to explain the various parts of the eye that he was checking. Even though I was running late, he took his time. Also I was impressed with the latest technology they had in the office to check eyes. I'll be back again! Thanks! read more

Dr. Chuong and the CSharp family are great. Every time I go in they really make me feel like I'm part of the family. They stay up to date on my wife and kids and major things happening in my life. I look forward to my yearly checkup since it's a chance to laugh with Dr. Chuong. read more

I'm a bit surprised by all of the 5 star reviews which did not match my first experience here. I felt rushed when I shared concerns about allergy symptoms and felt that Dr. Hwang was actively dissuading me from getting a dilated exam for the sake of time. It may have not been her intention to convey things this way but, altogether, the feeling I got was one of quickly checking the boxes rather than genuine caring. I had to ask to have contact lens fitted at the end which I'm surprised one needs to ask for--I assumed this was routine for all patients who indicate they wear contacts and glasses. Finally, the front desk staff showed very little interest in helping me select frames. I asked one who looked at the other in response to my ask. The second provided about 30 seconds of assistance before calling a third person. He provided the most help by listing three brands that would be of most interest to me. But that was it. Perhaps I'm expecting more than I should but I've typically had more hands on experience with selecting frames--more so than I had here. Perhaps they were having an off day. I won't seek to try to understand. But I do know I've had better service at my prior optometrist and plan to return there moving forward. 3 stars for ease of scheduling, location/parking and cleanliness. read more
