Saw the 5-star rating on Yelp with a handful of reviews. They definitely delivered!…read more Due for my yearly eye exam and not wanting to drive far away from home to get it, I decided to look for an optometrist closer to me. I came across this place and after reading the reviews, I decided to give it a shot. Communication started via email by inquiring if they accept my insurance. They do, and they advised me when on the soonest I could make an appointment (when my 1 year since the last appointment is reached). I went ahead and made an appointment for my comprehensive eye exam and they emailed me the necessary forms (new patient, etc.) to complete prior to my appointment day. Reponse time was quick! Fast forward to appointment day (today). I walked in and was greeted by a friendly person at the desk who accepted my completed forms. I waited for a short period of time then I was called up to do the usual testing (peripheral vision, etc.) on the machines. She also did a iWellness Retina Exam (optional, additional fee, pretty cool to see a cross section of your eyeballs) to assess the health of my eye. I didn't catch her name, but the person who helped me was very friendly and helped me feel at ease. Once the tests were done, I was walked over to the neighboring room for the comprehensive eye exam with the optometrist. The optometrist who saw me, Sophia, was awesome! She's very knowledgeable (as she should be) and answered all the questions that I had. She provided helpful information to take care of my eyes and my Meibomian glands. Thorough, friendly, and professional are just a few of the many words that could describe her. I can imagine parking might be difficult during lunch time on the weekdays, but anytime before or after should be OK. They are closed every Sunday and tuesday. I highly recommend this place if you're looking for a forever optometrist!

I came in about a month ago to get contact lenses for the first time. After seeing the perfect reviews, I decided to give Optometry Corner in Irvine a try despite the higher price for an eye exam. I was told that my contact lenses would arrive a week after my eye exam. After a week I didn't receive a call and when I called to check in, I was told that my contact lenses were delayed for a month and then was told that it was the standard wait time. So I waited, a few weeks passed by and then I received a phone call that my left eye lenses have arrived and if I already picked up my right eye. No I haven't, because they haven't arrived yet. So another week went by and I finally got a call that my right eye lenses have arrived and I can finally come and pick up my trial lenses. Keep in mind, this is my first time getting contact lenses. When I come into the store, they hand me a little brown bag with my lenses and tell me "that's it". After arriving home and realizing the difficulty of wearing lenses, I call the office of Optometry Corner to schedule a training session. The girl mentions that since it was my first time I should've had that scheduled but due to a new hire and miscommunication, I will have to wait to see a doctor for the training. I hate to be on the side of negativity or even leave a bad review on a business that requires hard work, but unfortunately the incompetence of basic customer service interaction has been ridiculously frustrating and has worn my patience thin. For now, I will see how things go moving forward with the upcoming appointment.

I appreciate her ability to help me find frames that flatter my face shape and how clearly she explained the differences between lens options, tints, coatings, and related technology. I'm the kind of buyer who wants to get granular with the details of what I'm spending my money on; Amy delivers on that front. She also made it easy to understand how my EyeMed insurance applied to different frame and lens combinations. I think it is worth mentioning that she answered many of my technical coverage questions in Spanish. This part of my visit felt very straightforward. Overall, this location has a strong team and I think Amy's expertise adds a nice sparkle to the customer experience. I'll gladly keep coming back.

I drive here back in May because I wanted to get a second-opinion and because I wanted to meet the legendary Dr. Feinerman. I wanted to join the Secret Service and one of their mandated requirements is to get eye surgeries. However, I was never given a transparent explanation on how thick or thin my corneas are. I'd read about the horrors of lasik eye surgery, and the recent suicide of a police officer really made me think twice and such. Dr. Feinerman gives you evaluations for free on that stuff. My heart goes out to that police officer's family and friends for their loss. Dr. Feinerman and his team are so wonderful and amazing. They have these machines that thoroughly examine your eyes and even has a small machine one the size of a small coffee maker you'd find at Target that tells you how old your prescription glasses are. Dr. Feinerman also loved the matcha-Sakura pocky sticks I gave him along with a slice of sweet potato pie as a gift for his generosity and job.

2nd update in response to the business owner, Scott: Scott,…read moreplease don't deflect my concerns by referring to privacy laws and your office records. My concern is the lack of response and proper follow-up from your staff. To clarify, my original review was regarding an incident involving my husband on 9/16. He called your office because his previous emails and text messages regarding his medical records had not received a response. No one answered his phone call. Instead, he received a text instructing him to communicate with the office by text--even though he had already been trying to reach your staff by both email and text without getting a response to his request. As for my own experience, I have also had difficulty getting my questions properly addressed. I have received repetitive or generic text responses that did not actually answer what I was asking. Simply sending a text within 24 hours does not mean that a patient's question or request has been addressed. We have been patients at your office for over seven years, and this review reflects our actual recent experiences. The issue is not whether your records show that a text was sent. The issue is the lack of meaningful responses, follow-up, and communication when patients are trying to get assistance. Rather than focusing on defending your office's response-time records, I hope you will take this feedback seriously and improve how your staff communicates with and follows up with patients. Update -To the business owner, Scott: I would like to clarify that the incident regarding the unanswered emails, texts, and medical record request happened to my husband over the past two weeks. As for my own experience, every time I have communicated with your staff by text, I have received the same repetitive responses rather than a clear answer addressing my actual question or concern. This has made the communication feel extremely unhelpful and frustrating. Scott, I strongly suggest that you provide better training to your staff on how to communicate with patients, respond to questions directly, and properly follow up on requests. After being patients at your office for over 7 years, we know the level of service and communication we used to receive, and unfortunately, our recent experiences have been very disappointing. Original post- I hate to leave a negative review, especially since we have been coming to this optometry office for over 7 years. Our communication with the staff had always been fine until recently. For the past two weeks, we have been emailing and texting the office to request a copy of our latest medical records. After receiving no response, we called the office and left a voicemail, but no one answered. We then received a text asking us to communicate with them by text instead. It is extremely frustrating and ridiculous that we were asked to text them after no one answered our call, yet they still did not respond to our text messages. We have continued trying to contact the office by phone, email, and text, but have not received a response. As of today, we still have not received the medical records we requested. After being patients here for more than 7 years, this experience has been extremely disappointing. Obtaining your own medical records should not require repeated emails, text messages, and phone calls over a period of weeks. I hope the office takes this feedback seriously and improves its communication and responsiveness. For anyone considering this optometry office, I recommend taking our recent experience into consideration.

Dr. Lang and his surgical team provided me with an outstanding cataract surgery experience…read more At 71 years old, I have known only a handful of surgeons who truly stand out in my memory. One saved my life. Another relieved years of chronic pain and gave me back a quality of life I had almost forgotten was possible. Dr. Lang now joins that very small and distinguished group. Not because my cataract surgery was life-saving or dramatic, but because he and his team delivered something equally meaningful: exceptional skill combined with kindness, professionalism, and an ability to make a potentially frightening experience feel comfortable and even enjoyable. From the moment I entered the surgical suite, I felt completely at ease. The procedure was entirely painless, and I was amazed at how calm and relaxed I remained throughout. I never imagined I would describe eye surgery as enjoyable, yet that is exactly how I felt. Dr. Lang and his assistants treated me with genuine warmth and respect. Their confidence inspired trust, and their compassion made all the difference. I will always be grateful to the surgeons who changed my life in profound ways. I am equally grateful that, when it came time for my cataract surgery, I was fortunate enough to be in the care of Dr. Lang and his remarkable team. Like many people, I was nervous beforehand. Having surgery on my eye sounded intimidating, and despite being assured that the procedure would be painless, I still had my doubts. Dr. Lang and his assistants immediately put me at ease with their calm professionalism, confidence, and genuine concern for my comfort. The procedure itself was completely painless... that is something that still amazes me. I was relaxed throughout and even found the experience enjoyable. I remember seeing beautiful hues of the colors blue, yellow, magenta, and brilliant white... all of which made the surgery feel almost surreal in the best possible way. What stands out most to me is how well coordinated and caring the entire team was. Every assistant was friendly, reassuring, and highly skilled. I always felt safe and well cared for. Dr. Lang combines exceptional surgical expertise with a bedside manner that inspires confidence and trust. I could not have asked for a better experience, and I would wholeheartedly recommend Dr. Lang and his team to anyone considering cataract surgery.
