    Call time

    Called the office to schedule an appointment as a new patient a few days ago. They just now responded three days later saying sorry we missed your call because the office is closed. Even though I called while the office was open. Go somewhere else. it's seems like they are all over the place with their schedules.

    Blown away by this friendly and efficient office. Had an emergency need to get a same day eye exam for my 94 year old mother (she broke her glasses), and they squeezed her in, and treated her like gold from the moment we arrived, until we walked out the door. Even their summer intern, "Tai" (sp?) was precious. Check him out in the photo, carefully walking her to the exam room (she needs assistance, this wasn't for show). There are so many small nice experiences that occurred throughout, I don't want to bore you all to tears -- but I do want you all to know that this is a very special business operation. They deserve as many customers as they can handle! Wishing them the best!

    Had to write an update raving about how much I STILL love Capitol Optometry! I've even turned 3 friends onto their greatness. Huge thanks to YoYo for being straightforward about what frame suit me. If I'm asking for your opinion, I want it, and not "well those are nice, what do YOU think?" I've got my two favorite pairs of glasses and my favorite sunnies from his recommendations, with scores of compliments! And all WITHIN the price range covered by the state insurance at no extra cost to me!

    The ladies at the front desk were awesome! They got my in right away and ran all the preliminary…read moretests rather quickly! I was amazed by the more advanced equipment compared to my previous optometrist. The optometrist who saw me was very quick in figuring out the proper contact prescription just after one trial and adjustment. It's a bit difficult with with needing to adjust for multi focal plus astigmatism. So happy I finally found a local optometrist that I'm comfortable with.

    This office does get quite busy so expect your appointment to take a little longer than you would…read moreexpect. I would recommend you to bring your old glasses/contacts prescription so the optometrist will know where to start with providing you the correct prescription. I unfortunately did not bring my old prescription to my appointment. I reviewed my old prescription compared to the one I received from this office and noticed my new prescription is weaker. What I like about this office is that the optometrist listened to my concerns regarding my old contact lenses and was able to provide me with a better brand. I opted to purchase a pair of glasses from this office and it took about two weeks for them to be ready. If you think you will need to make adjustments to your glasses, you must schedule a time to meet with an optician. This is the first time I have come across an optometry office requiring you to schedule a time to make adjustments to your glasses. I had a family member pick up my glasses so I wasn't able to see my glasses until later in the day. I noticed the lenses were a lot thicker than I was used to. My prescription is pretty high so I opted for the high index eyeglass lenses. High index lenses cost a lot more than normal lenses. The glasses I received definitely weren't high index and the way the lenses were shaved down didn't look right at all. I had quite a bit of a back and forth exchange with the office about these lenses not being correct. The office was telling me that these are high index lenses and the lab recommended I get a roll and polish for an extra charge. I have never gotten a roll and polish for any of my glasses. I really had to voice my concerns before the manager jumped in and agreed to send the glasses back to the lab for new high index lenses. It's a bit inconvenient that I had to request time off work to drop off the glasses and then schedule a time with the optician to try on the new glasses. Also, it took about another 2 weeks to get the correct glasses. However, i'm glad the office made things right by finally listening to my concern. The lenses to my new glasses are exactly what I was expecting. Overall, this office isn't the worst place. It's about average. At the end of the day, the office will try to fix the mistake. The optometrist I had listened to my concerns which is a plus as most optometrist just shrug your concerns off.

    Clearly they don't want to do business…read more The closing time is 4pm, we were at the door at 3:50pm. The door was still open, we went in, and told them can we look quickly we are a returning customer who already know which pair of glasses to look at. They said no, made us leave. We went out the door, checked the clock, still 3:55pm. They made leave before closing time. We waited in the car to pack and leave, and at 4:01 we see the staff leave. Apparently closing time means their staff leaves, not when customers leave. Won't be coming back.

    I have never been treated so poorly by a business over a simple question about a purchase. I was…read moretold I would receive $100 off for paying out of pocket and not using my insurance. No one told me this could not be combined with the $99 frame special. I only learned that AFTER I purchased the frames. When I questioned it, instead of simply explaining the policy, the situation was turned into a personal attack. I was told I was no longer welcome in the store, and the owner later labeled me "aggressive" and accused me of cursing at staff. The owner's response says everything. Rather than acknowledging that the terms were not explained to me beforehand, she chose to defend the employee and blame the customer. I got my refund, but I would rather take my business somewhere that values customers more than they value being right. You can keep the $100. I'll keep my dignity and take my business elsewhere.

    I came here because it is close to my house and it seemed like a nice store. There are hidden…read moredoctor offices behind the storefront with a lot of different equipment and rooms to check eyes. I have now been here twice as the first time they found my eyes were likely just tired and I needed to blink more and possibly use eye drops; this last time I got my first perscription for reading sadly. I work for the state and their visit was covered completely under the vision program through the state so that was nice. Also because my perscription is fairly minor (1.25), they recommended that I just grab a cheap pair of glasses at the pharmacy rather than get fancy expensive glasses through them. They also gave me a perscription in case I did want a fancy pair. I do really like that they suggested something quick and cheap though. Staff greeted me right away and the doctors were also very friendly. The store front seems very nice with a bunch of cute glasses too.

    I scheduled an appointment and asked how much the appointment would cost. I was told they could not…read moretell me until after the doctor sees me. I checked out after my appointment and while my comprehensive exam was covered, the contacts fitting was not. Turns out it is $85 for a contacts fitting, which is the highest I have ever seen in sacramento or Los Angeles. It's $35 for contacts fitting elsewhere in sacramento. Price around! And if they won't give you an estimate before your appointment, consider moving on to the next shop. Their frame selection is nicely curated, so worth stopping in to see that.
