I hadn't had my eyes checked in over a year, I called in on a Saturday and to my surprise, I received an appointment the same day. I had never received such a thorough examination. Dr. Nguyen went in depth about my eyes, my astigmatism, and all my questions/concerns. Dr Vu was very friendly and they were both very helpful when it came to picking out my glasses. My eye exam consisted of about 6 or seven different test. The doctor explained to me what each test did and why it would be beneficial to go through with each one. No one ever looked into my astigmatism and balance so much. I felt well informed and confident of my decision to go to this location within the first few tests. Of course, I had seen other reviews and even heard from my girlfriend about cheaper optometrists in the Garden Grove/Westminster area, but after finding this small office in Fullerton I have no problem having Dr. Nguyen become my regular optometrist. The price wasn't as low as I had hoped but I don't mind supporting independent businesses who genuinely care for their customers and perform in such a professional and friendly manner. The glasses selection here fit my needs and I was able to find stylish glasses and even name brands to fit my huge head =). For once, I'm actually looking forward to receiving my glasses after such an outstanding examination. read more

I've been a 4 eyed kid for over 16 years, so I definitely had my share of optometrists and air blowing in my eye. Dr. Nguyen is passionate about eyes and I've never encountered someone who cared so much about eyes. I was there for 1.5 hours for my appointment. At other places, they rush you in and out so they can make more money, but it's not like that here. Dr. Nguyen informed me about my eyes and took the time to explain in detail what he was doing and why he was doing it. I really appreciate that he took his time examining my eyes. I am glad I was able to find this place! I'll probably be visiting Dr. Nguyen every year from now on and will definitely recommend family and friends. read more

I went to Dr. Argarth when I was a kid & a little bit into my adulthood, before he retired. I was a little nervous, at first, going to see Dr. Nyguen, but I received the same friendly, delicate, thorough care as ever. Dr. Nyguen even preformed a few tests I'd never had done before, which brought to light a minor problem I hadn't known about. He and his staff are always extremely caring and want to be sure you are well informed of all your options and why they're preforming the tests. They help you pick out frames that will look best on you, and explain which lense options would be right for your situation. I drive in from Riverside and have no qualms about making the long trek for such outstanding care. I made a point of telling my family about how much I enjoyed my appointment. If you've never been there before, the office can be little bit hard to find. It's hidden in its own little shopping center, next to the Post Office. read more

My daughter came to see Dr. Nguyen a few years ago and so this year when I was shopping around for an optometrist I came in here to inquire on how much an exam would be since I'm not using insurance. I spoke with Dr. Nguyen himself. I ended up choosing Caring Eyes Optometry over Costco, Sam's Club, Wal-Mart, and Target Optometry. His contact and eyeglass exam is $90. Yup, you read right, for both exams, as in together!! So the price initially brought me in, but his customer service has made me a lifelong patient. Dr. Nguyen was very thorough in his examination, and very patient. My daughter was being fitted for contacts and both he and Francesca were very patient during the process which took a while. Once fitted with the contacts he brought her back to the exam room and examined her vision again. He wasn't happy with the results, so he had her try on another brand and examined her vision once more. He sent us home and we didn't order contacts right away. He wanted to see how we did after a week. This is not what I expected. He took the extra time to make sure that these were the right fit for us before committing to ordering. What a stand up guy! I truly felt like he took his time and answered all my questions. In addition he made sure that we were correctly fitted. He took the extra time and went the extra mile. Maya Angelou said it best: "I've learned that people will forget what you said, people will forget what you did, but people will never forget how you made them feel." This place is unforgettable precisely because of the way they made me feel. I was not made to feel like just another name on an appointment book, or a record number. That personal friendly touch, and the willingness to go the extra mile is what sets Caring Eyes Optometry apart from the rest. Go ahead and give them a call. You won't regret it. read more

I had a wonderful first time experience at this office. Dr. Nguyen has a very outgoing character which made me feel very comfortable. I've recommended a few of my friends to his office and they seem to feel the same. Such a family/friend atmosphere that it makes everything so much easier. I called to get set an appointment and I was scheduled the very next day. That's always a Plus! When it came time to pick my glasses, the optician was very sweet and nice helping me pick out the correct glasses that would fit me best. The prices on the glasses was very reasonable. Overall, it was a wonderful first time experience at this office and I would recommend all my friends and family to come here. read more

OK, this is hands down the NICEST most CARING optometry office in southern california! I can honestly say that there are no doctors out there that genuinely care for their patients more than these two doctors here. Dr Nguyen is my boyfriend's optometrist, and I am a patient of his wife, Dr. Vu! We truly feel a sense of sincerity when we are in their office. They have some great frame selections and they are super cute and comfy!!! i love their higher end collections because they pick out some really unique looking frames! i've gotten a pair of Koali Frames from the office, and i constantly get compliments on it because it's so different from all other frames out there! My boyfriend's prescription is not as high as mines, so he doesn't need to wear glasses, so he usually just gets RayBan sunglasses (POLARIZED) he loves that stuff! If you are in the fullerton area, I would recommend this place! read more

My first time in this office, and I must say I felt like I knew the staff for ever lol..... great people, great attention......it was just a wonderful experience in a vision office! No walk-ins only by appt, which was perfect because they give you the time and patience to answer all your questions and choose your lenses... the lady that answer the phone who helped me today at the office, to check my insurance was so sweet..... but they did have an opening for me same day. Thank you for booking me today ....I know how hard it is to fit someone in specially a new patient. My insurance covered part of my glasses .....and I ended up paying the difference, they have good brands at affordable prices! But honestly the service and attention I received from the guy doctor and his assistant was just amazing! Thank you very much! read more

I was a patient of Dr. Agarth initially and then Dr. Nguyen when the practice was sold around 2005/2006 and have been very happy with the level of professionalism. Additionally, I appreciate the personal touch provided by Caring Eyes Optometry. Please give them a try and you won't be disappointed. read more

You have always given us beyond exceptional service. We want to thank you for that Dr. Nguyen & Julie!!! We never have seen waiting times for this office, EVER. When they schedule you for a set time it's always scheduled perfectly. The reception staff is the best of the best. Talk about good old customer care! Ladies and Gents looking for a personal attention, well this is where you want to be! I bring my whole family. This staff knows how to treat my 6 year old and give her the exact care she needs for her eyes same as my 21 year old. We are forever grateful and you have us as customers for life. On a more person note: I've been a customer since Dr. Agarth and you had big shoes to fill Dr. Nguyen. You would make Dr. Agarth proud Dr. Nguyen. Irene & family. read more

This is the best optometrist I have ever been to. They have a great selection of eyewear. I went in and got prescription sun glasses. They were ready within a week. I loved them so much, I went back in a few months later to get new lenses in my current glasses (I love my old frames so much, otherwise I would of gotten new ones there!). Everyone is incredibly friendly and helpful. I'd recommend them to anyone in the area! read more

Caring Eyes Optometry - I love my glasses! - Optometrists Near Me - Fullerton, California

They replaced the lenses for both my new glasses to update my prescription for free. :)

Great expertise and great with my children. Dr. Nguyen and his staff are professional and wonderful. Not all optometrists are the same. It really matters who you see. I highly recommend Dr. Nguyen. read more

We are very happy to have Dr. Nguyen be my family's optometrist. He is very professional, careful, patient, and polite. He tries his best to solve any problems coming up for his clients.

So let's start off with the fact that my eyesight just plain sucks! I have known this for many years and have not found a single doctor that could truly help me.... until I found Caring Eyes Optometry. There are not enough words to express my gratitude to his office. Their office staff is amazing but more importantly Dr. John was incredible. He did more for me in my first visit than any of my other doctors over the last 20 years. Honestly the BEST exam and assistance I have ever had. He will contact you if you have any questions and will give you straight answers. I do not write reviews very often, but when I run into a company that blows me away, I have to take the time to share my experiences. You will never go wrong with this place. Bar NONE, A++++! read more

My experience at Caring Eyes Optometry was nothing but great. From setting my appointment, to getting checked in, to receiving my glasses. Staff here is very attentive and Dr. Nguyen was extremely helpful, he took his time in explaining my eye exam. He also helped me pick my prescription glasses, which I love!! read more

Best customer service! Dr. Nguyen and his staff are very professional and genuinely care for their customers. Last year I was getting prescription sunglasses. There was a mix up and I had to wait a few weeks more because the first time the wrong prescription was put in and then the second time the wrong color lens was put in. I was also getting new lenses put in to my regular glasses at the same time and Dr. N felt so bad about the sunglasses that he surprised me with new frames for my glasses (exact same style as the ones I had). I didn't really care about waiting longer and it wasn't really Dr. Nguyen's fault but he was so apologetic and he's such a nice guy. Went in again this last week to get another pair of prescription sunglasses (I lost the pair I got last year -_-). When I went in to pick them up today, Dr. N told me I overpaid by $16 and gave me a refund. How honest. I'll definitely continue coming back here and recommend Dr. Nguyen to anyone looking for an optometrist. read more

Out of all my healthcare providers right now, Caring Eyes Optometry provides the best care. I never have to wait when I come for my Saturday appointments. Dr. Nguyen is very kind and always makes me feel comfortable, yet not over friendly. I seriously feel like we can be friends! He actually facebook messaged me to congratulate me on my firstborn. He always takes his time to examine my eyes and explains everything thoroughly. There's a lot of glasses frames, with affordable prices, to choose and his awesome staff is always there to assist. So happy we found him! read more

I was completely out of contacts and in desperate need of an exam ASAP. I called Caring Eyes on a Saturday morning and they were able to get me an appointment that day. Dr. Nguyen was very thorough and took his time to explain everything to me. I've been hopping from Costco optometrist to Costco optometrist, but I think I'll stick to Caring Eyes now. read more

Just had my prescription checked by Dr. Nguyen and I was in an out in 33 minutes! I have to say that the front office staff and the Dr. himself were very friendly and efficient. I will definitely be coming here for any vision related needs! read more

I wanted contacts so badly for the last couple of years and the last optometrist I went to said it wasn't possible for me since my eyes weren't "settled." I made an appointment here just to see if I would get a different answer and I'm so glad I did! Dr nguyen was so incredible. He listened to what I had to say, agreed with what I wanted and I was in and out of there with my first pair of contacts in 30 min. His assistant was very helpful, too and very patient with teaching me the basics with contacts. I'm getting married in a few weeks, and Dr Nguyen totally saved me from wearing my glasses the entire time. I'm a very happy customer. read more

I just came back from another delightful appt with Dr. John Nguyen Optometrist. Him & his receptionist are very polite & welcoming. Dr. Nguyen always answers my questions & makes sure I'm happy with my contact & glass wear fittings. I'm happy to have read the yelp reviews and switched over. read more

Great service, never had to wait too long before my check up. Been coming here for years, recommended him to all of my family members and friends, he really cares about your eyes! read more

Went to caring eyes today and what an experience. They took great care of me and were super nice about everything, didn't hesitate to answer any questions and gave me a breakdown of what my insurance covered, no hidden fees and great prices. Would def recommend this place to anyone! read more

It's been about a year since I started coming to Dr. John Nguyen's practice, and unfortunately it's been a bit of a roller coaster as far as my eye health is concerned. It puts me in a unique position to write a review from the perspective of someone who ran into a few more issues with his eyes over the course of a year than most. I feel very fortunate that I can rely on Dr. Nguyen to be as committed to living up to the Caring Eyes name as any professional I've ever met. He dedicates at least an hour of his time to perform an eye exam on each patient, and that's a deliberate decision made in order to be as comprehensive and informative as he can be during your visit. He was open to questions I had during my visits and answered a majority of them with explanations that were easy to understand. He was always forthright with his diagnoses and I never felt like I was in the dark about any tests or procedures he performed. I ran into an eye problem that was as persistent a health issue as I've ever dealt with, and Dr. Nguyen was there to guide me through the road to recovery every step of the way. He wrote prescriptions and kept the fact that I wasn't insured at the time in mind, assuaged any concerns I had about stronger medication (and their side effects) he had recommended, and did a remarkable job of balancing the medicine with what I felt comfortable doing. I can't say enough about how considerate Dr. Nguyen has been every time I've been in his office. You are doing your eyes (and wallet) a disservice by not checking out Caring Eyes Optometry if you live anywhere near Dr. Nguyen's practice. read more

I have been going to Caring Eyes Optometry for about a year and a half or so and absolutely love it. Dr. Nguyen and the staff are always so incredibly friendly, caring, helpful, attentive, and patient. They will make sure they answer any questions/concerns you may have. They also have a great selection of glasses and sunglasses. I highly recommend anyone to come here. They are fantastic. :) read more

This review is based off of the cleanliness of the establishment. For a place that you go to for eye exams, (any medical-type establishment should be clean) you would think that it would be a lot cleaner and that you would have a little bit more pride in your office to make it so. The exam room I was taken to was so unorganized and dusty that I was afraid to even have the equipment placed up to my face. There was a desk with loose lenses, paperwork, the stick you cover an eye with, an old 80s-style desktop fan (nothing wrong with the fan, just mentioning the things on the desk), and whatever else just splattered about. The dr tried handing me the stick you cover your eye with and I had to ask if it was clean. Dude, I saw it sitting underneath a bunch of papers and other shit, do you really think I wanna hold that again my face? MY EYES?? Nope. He wiped it down for me. Then he wiped down only the parts of the equipment that would go on my face. The rest of the parts of the equipment were caked with dust. Even the power strip was so caked with dust that it wasn't even white anymore! Ew! If it wasn't for him wiping it all down in front of me, I wouldn't have had my exam. Here's the deal, doc, make the time. If you can't make the time to clean, have someone do it for you. Splurge a little. It's worth it. I don't need some fungus growing in my eyeballs due to the lack of respect that you have for something you've worked so hard for-your own office. Having such a dirty place only makes me wonder how well you wipe down everything in between your patients. read more

I have been a customer at Caring Eyes Optometry for 2 years now and I will never go anywhere else after finding Dr. Nguyen. He is so personable, caring and extremely thorough with each exam. I promise you that I am not exaggerating, this office rocks and you will not be disappointed! My husband who puts off any sort of office visit actually enjoys going for his annual eye exam and that says a lot :) The selection of glasses is awesome and they help you choose the right pair for you. All in all, I HIGHLY recommend Caring Eyes Optometry! So glad I found them! :) read more

I am a new patient of Dr. Nguyen, and I must say i LOVE this office. I have a few friends who have been coming here since the other doctor was still practicing, and they reccommend this office to me. Dr. Nguyen, was very funny and helpful throughout the whole exam. What I liked the best was the friendly atmosphere that they have in their office. The optician Beanie helped me picked out some really CUTEE frames, and i only had to pay like 45 bucks for my new Juicy frames with my insurance...I saw these plastic Dior frames, that I also want, but Im going to have to come back and get them...plus u get like 20% off your second pair, so im gonna save up! Overall, I think this place is nice and friendly, great customer service. Dr N. knew what he was talking about, staff was sweet and caring. I didn't feel rushed or anything, and I was there for almost 2 hours picking out frames...too many cute frames to chose from!!!! I definitely reccommend this place to anyone. read more

I got my glasses today (sooner than expected) and I absolutely love them. I had put off getting my glasses because I was dreading the process, however I yelped this place and I was not disappointed. Dr. Nguyen was very professional and polite. I also appreciated Jennifer, who was cordial and very pleasant (shout out to her to her for her awesome vibes). Office was clean and so was their equipment. They had a lot of frames to choose from and I did not feel rushed in any way to pick mine out. I definitely recommend this place! read more

Caring Eyes Optometry - I will now have a new outlook on life lol:) - Optometrists Near Me - Fullerton, California

I had a great experience here. I went a few years ago and I have a tricky prescription with prisms, etc. The Dr. was knowledgeable and was spot on with the prescription. I haven't had such luck since then. Too bad I moved out of the area. Also I remember the staff being very friendly. read more

This is customer service at it's best. They take their time to explain everything and answer any questions you have. I went in for an eye exam for contacts and they took care of me. I will definitely be going back for any optometry needs. read more

I have been wearing glasses and contact lens for over 30 years now. Dr. Tina Nguyen-Vu and her team are extremely professional; she has taken great care of my eyes for years. My daughter also goes to her for her eye examine. She takes the time to explain to you the process, procedures, and also the test results. They also have a good selection in frames to choice from. I highly recommend Caring Eyes Optometry; especially Dr. Vu!! read more

I had horrible experiences elsewhere and when I called Caring Eye Optometry it was a breath of fresh air!! they are super AMAZING! Very friendly and caring! Amazing service. I wish i wasn't moving away, I would definitely be a life long customer!!!! read more

Love our new glasses! Caring Eyes is exactly that....caring. They get us in when we need their help and help us pick out the best eyewear for us. I love Caring Eyes! read more

I have always wanted to wear contacts and have tried several times before without success. I went to Caring Eyes because of the great service I received when getting new glasses last year. With their help (and about 30mins of coaching) I was finally able to get the contacts in. I'm very happy with the results. read more

I love this place. Everyone is very nice and welcoming, and the tests are very thorough. Dr. Nguyen explained all the tests he did, and what they meant for my eyes/prescription. Julie Ann was very helpful with selecting my frames, also. I did end up having some problems with my glasses once I received them (I have really sensitive eyes, and they were having trouble adjusting to the larger frames I had chosen), but I went back and Dr. Nguyen explained what was happening, and let me pick new frames! I'm happy with my new glasses, and I'm very impressed with the level of customer service I received. I definitely recommend this optometrist. read more

I honestly picked this optometrist because it was done the street from where I live, but I am forever grateful that I did!!! Both optometrist are married to each other and couldn't have asked for better Dr's to be caring for my eyes. They are both knowledgeable and very friendly. My last appt I had to bring my 3 kids for lack of a sitter and Dr. John Nguyen was very patient with my kids as they ran around. If i needed my glasses to be tightened all I do is drop in and they did it on the spot. Julie Ann was very helpful with picking out my frames. If you are looking for an optometrist look no further! read more

I started going to Dr Agarth in 2001. Then Dr Nguyen took over in 2007. I wasn't sure if I was going to like having a new doctor. I was pleasantly surprised. Dr Nguyen and his staff were very friendly and helpful. They updated the glasses they have to all the new latest styles. If you are looking for a good Optometrist Caring Eyes is your place. read more

Dr. Nguyen is great. He works with my entire family, even our 8 and 6 year olds.

Love these people! I've had perfect vision all my life. Until recently, when I noticed that everything was a little fuzzy in one eye. Time for an eye exam!!! Found these guys here on yelp with a few glowing reviews. And everyone was right!! They were so sweet, genuinely caring, even helped me stay on budget when picking out my glasses. Thanks!!! I guess Ill be back when my eyes get worse. read more
