As usual John is amazing and always comes through! He is always awesome at needs that you ask for and goes above and beyond, even if it's A frame from 5 years ago! His office is super calm nice and I love his hand sanitizers and the disco light in the bathroom! John is relatable and always fun to talk to, I feel like I always talk his ear off because we have a lot in common! Anyways he's an awesome optometrist and I even signed my son up with him on my insurance! I recommend john's caring eyes optometry to all of my friends! He has hip Frames and if they don't have what you're looking for they will order within reason :) I've been going to John over a decade and he's amazing!

You will NEVER regret coming to Caring Eyes Optometry and seeing Dr. Nguyen!! He is the epitome of professionalism and kindness rolled into one. I am forever grateful to be able to call him my eye doctor. I've been his patient for three years now and I won't ever go anywhere else. If you are reading this review wanting/needing to see an eye doctor soon, call his office right now at (714) 526-1513 to schedule an appointment. What are you waiting for?? He even works on Saturdays for those of us who work the typical 9-5! His staff is incredibly patient. Shout out to the young woman who helped me out; 93487897+ stars for your stellar customer service. Keep it up, Dr. Nguyen & his team. See you next year 8)

Located in the area with Archery Outpost and right next to the post office. I've never had such superb experience at an optometry before. Most of the optometry I go to just check my eyes and let me browse around, but here Dr. Nguyen and his assistants are very informative and helpful! They walk you through everything and answer all your questions before you even ask! Dr. Nguyen and his assistants take their time to show you the different kinds of frames that specifically fit you. I NEVER KNEW there was such a right "FIT" until I came here. I've got these super cute pairs of rayban's clubmasters (eyeglass + sunglasses), but the nose pads.. kinda bug because they leave marks on my face, but STILL love them. I recently lost my eyeglasses and I NEED MY GLASSES! So I call Dr. Nguyen up and said, I need to get new glasses and I knew which one I wanted because this was my other choice from when I got my raybans. It's the COACH Alternative Fit one. He said "We'll get them done right away!" because he got all my information in file from the last time & he'll give me a call when it's ready. They have these "Alternative Fit" frames for us asians with no nose bridges! I mean, it's not made for just asians.. but most of us fall in that category. I think it's amazing because before my glasses would always slide off my face, but with these cute Coach AF frames I got recently... I'm in love and they are perfect on my face! Great selection of designer and insurance covered frames! Both men & women. They also have a lot of cute kids frame as well. Speaking of kids, they have a kid's toy playing area in the waiting room and children-appropriate movies showing on the TV, which is nice. There's kids toys because he has two little adorable girls himself! :D The time to get my glasses was extremely quick. It took about a week! Dr. Nguyen also sends out Thank You notes after your visit, which is very nice and thoughtful. Shows that he appreciates his patients. Also, the Dr's voice sounds like those love song dedication soothing voice, on KOST 103.5 hahah. How pleasant.

Ray bans! They have a wide selection and are really honest and helpful when you ask for their opinion. They also do adjustments!

I recently visited Lenhardt Optometric group for me and my 3 year old daughter's yearly eye exam…read more Dr. Mike and Desiree exceeded my expectations. Anyone with children knows the stress of taking them to a new doctor. But Dr. Mike and his staff seemed very experienced with little ones and made the whole experience fun for her while giving an efficient and thorough eye exam. Dr. Mike especially knew how to engage with her and make her feel excited about playing games to check her vision. My daughter loved it so much she pouted when we had to leave and chattered on the way home about looking forward to going back. For my exam Dr. Mike was efficient but took time to listen and address my concerns and hooked me up with a new set of glasses that I can't wait to use! 10/10 would recommend!

FYI! Dr. Mike has moved to Allred Family Eye Care down the street! OMG! I had no idea. Thankfully,…read moreI called the LOG phone number which transferred me to AFEC. First attempt was just before lunch, voice mail with greeting stating on odd address 1601 E Chapman... I hung up not knowing the true situation at this point. I tried again a few hours later at 330 pm. I confirmed my appointment but learned Dr. Mike's schedule is Tu-Th and he did join AFEC. The receptionist did tell me that I needed to change my appointment because it landed on a Friday. So I told her I'd call back after I reviewed my calendar. I was fortunate that I was going to be down in the OC area to have a get together dinner. So I called back to officially change my appointment to a Tuesday. I got the low down from the office manager at AFEC about Mike's move. But I won't spill it here. I hope Dr. Mike is happy with his new place. I'll definitely give AFEC a review as well in October.

Although it took me an additional year to move forward with LASIK due to my own hesitation, I am extremely glad I did. Throughout the entire process, I felt supported, informed, and never pressured. From check-in to check-out, the staff made me feel comfortable and confident in the care I was receiving. Dr. Lusby demonstrated exceptional professionalism and expertise, which further reassured me that I was in excellent hands. The level of care, attention to detail, and overall patient experience exceeded my expectations. I am very grateful to Melinda and Dr. Lusby for their dedication and outstanding care. I would highly recommend this practice to my friends and family and would not hesitate to trust them again.

My first visit was a really good experience overall. The eye exam, glasses fitting, and contact…read morelens fitting all felt smooth and thorough. The doctor is professional, easy to talk to, and has a very relaxed, chill demeanor that made the appointment comfortable. I was also recommended Optase Hylo Relief dry eye drops and they've been great. They keep my eyes lubricated with contacts and feel noticeably better than other brands I've tried. David, the office manager, is very straightforward, sometimes blunt, but always clear and helpful. There was a miscommunication with my contact lenses that left me unable to receive them for about two to three months. Luckily I had enough supply to get by. David was instrumental in resolving the issue, which stemmed from my vision benefits. He followed up diligently and handled everything with professionalism and persistence. The matter ultimately resolved with my insurance, and I was impressed by his level of service throughout. Overall, a very positive experience with attentive care and strong follow through when an issue came up. I will definitely be back!

He is always attentive to eye health and has greatly helped us with our youngest's sight issues. Not only is Dr Choi great but so is his office staff.

Their selection of frames is vast and they do turn around lens in store-- which is so convenient. Their pricing is on par and they work with insurance. We truly can't recommend this office more! If you're thinking about going, just book the appointment, you won't be sorry.

900 am, October 02, 2025…read more I'm on time. Check in. Fill out paper work. No one ahead of me. Then a few minutes later, a customer comes in and checks in. WTH, she gets taken ahead of me to do her standard testing before me??? Whatever, it's definitely unappreciated, moving on, minus one star. My time's valuable too. I'm assuming that my optician wasn't ready to test yet as she wasn't the same person I observed earlier. Okay, examination time. I did one standard test, then was asked if I want to have the retinal images done for $29! Haha, later talked to Dr. Mike, he said every other year is fine. Maybe I had forgotten that there's a fee for this imaging. We move on to a different room and my periferal vision done the old fashioned way without a machine? It was one of those "how many fingers an I holding up" test. Then we did a pressure test with a tiny hand held tool. A very different experience from the prior year. We did a check of my 2 current glasses, one of them was my photochromic sunglasses. Both of them were very close to each other in prescription. On to the exam with Dr. Mike... Since I declined the retinal imaging, he did the dilation drops. I'm hindsight, I should have asked for the disposable sunglasses. It was so uncomfortable driving on a bright day afterwards, almost unbearable. Or be sure to have extra dark sunglasses in your car. He did the standard lens checking next. We did that, is 1 or 2 better thing with that massive machine in my face. The result was very little change. I guess I'll have to request the prescription electronically as I was not given a print out. Dr. Mike friendly as he's always been. His care is top notch, the best optometrist ever in my opinion. Parking: there's plenty of street parking as this medical office is in a residential neighborhood. However, in the rear of the building, there are a few spaces and one for disabled with a wheel chair ramp up to the back entrance.

She asked me if the following week would work and I agreed, assuming everything was set. She did not ask for more information from my end. When I arrived after a 45-min drive to my appointment, the front desk girl asked for my insurance information. I found this odd, as I assumed it would have been handled ahead of time like at other optometry offices. After checking her system, she told me that she couldn't get the authorization because a previous eye exam place was "holding" it. She told me to call 1-800 VSP number to have it "released", but the hotline & the previous eye place was already CLOSED. She said I wouldn't be able to get any eye exam today via insurance. I told the girl, "I wish I was notified earlier". She asked if we can reschedule and I told her that I'm no longer available other days. The next morning , I called the other optometry place & VSP hotline and they confirmed I have an open authorization. NOTHING WAS ON HOLD. This was a huge waste of time!!! If you value efficiency and proper communication, please go somewhere else.
