    In general, Costco has great competitive prices often equaling their peers in quality and beating them in price or value while maintaining customer service and support. Disclaimer here, the folks at the eyeglass frames and contact lens area have no specific education, expertise, training nor experience to provide optometry support in helping find specific frames that fit your face size and shape, etc. With that, I found my experiences, going in with moderate expectations, to be lackluster, frustrating and leaving me disappointed. I guess, there is a reason why it might be better to go through a professional optometrist who can more professionally and accurately assist customers in a hand-holding customized manner more so than a generic order taking process at Costco. If you know exactly what you want, and they have what you need, Costco can earn a ***** five star rating. That might apply to ordering or reordering basics like contact lens after getting your prescription there or from your own optometrist doctor. BUT if you are in doubt, confused or need help, the that is where Costco might not be the beset option for advice, or at least maybe not the retail counter service more so than the actual doctors / optometrists.

    My new Gucci reading glasses
    Cyn L.

    I recently tried a 3-pack of inexpensive readers from the warehouse. After a few weeks and headaches every day, I wondered if something was seriously wrong with my eyes. I went to my optometrist for an exam and fearing the worst, I was relieved to find out that I shouldn't be wearing over-the-counter readers since my left eye is far-sighted, and my right eye is near-sighted. I had no idea that the readers were way too strong for my right eye and were the cause of the headaches and pounding in my right eye. I got a prescription for reading glasses and brought it to Costco since they had a pair of Gucci frames that I liked. I inquired about Eye Med insurance and found out that they don't accept it at Costco. They told me that some members purchase their glasses from them and submit the receipt for reimbursement. After calling Eye Med, I found out that my policy has out-of-network benefits and will reimburse for a portion of the frame and lenses. Although I will not be reimbursed fully for the glasses, Costco offers great prices on designer frames...way better than getting them from an in-network provider who marks them up with a high profit margin. It was worth getting my new glasses from Costco! I can finally see again!

    Long-term confidence in an optometrist is earned through repetition: exam after exam, prescription…read moreafter prescription, adjustment after adjustment. An entire family continuing with Dr. Diane Risco for years is not an accident. It reflects a level of care that remains steady well beyond a single successful appointment. The defining quality here is clinical patience joined with practical judgment. A prescription can be technically correct and still fail in daily use, especially for sensitive eyes where a slight mismatch can mean headaches, strain, or visual discomfort. The exam is not treated as a rushed exercise in reaching a number. Time is spent refining the result until clear vision and actual comfort align. That care is especially evident with contact lenses. Samples are provided so the prescription can be tested under real conditions before committing: wear time, clarity, sensitivity, and comfort all matter once the lens leaves the exam room. That trial step reflects a clinician who understands that the final answer is not simply what measures correctly, but what performs well in ordinary life. Follow-up is handled with the same seriousness. If a prescription does not feel right afterward, returning for adjustment is treated as part of the care process rather than an inconvenience. Questions also receive thorough explanation, including broader eye-health concerns when they fall within Dr. Risco's expertise. That willingness to explain, reassure, and refine makes a meaningful difference, particularly when vision issues are not straightforward. Dr. Risco is clearly busy and in demand, but the appointment itself never feels disposable. The value is not merely accuracy; it is the insistence that accuracy must translate into comfort, clarity, and usable vision. That is why the care has remained worth returning to for years.

    Dr Risco is very good at her job. Professional,knowledgeable,personable. Absolutely would recommend…read morescheduling an eye exam. Friendly staff ,reasonable priced exam.

Anyway, yesterday was my birthday & I had never been there on my birthday but a happy birthday banner was there, I could not believe it. My appointment was in the morning, & that meant I ran into their lunchtime, I was not rushed, I was not told to come back after lunch, I was well taken care of & treated with kindness. I can not say enough good things about the office staff. They treat me like I am their only customer. I have the most interaction with Sylvia J., awesome does not describe the way she treats me. Rosa D. & Angie C. are awesome also, we talk but since I wear contacts, my main focus is that, I do get glasses once every 3 or 4 years & their treatment is one in a million. Claudia V deserves more than an honorable mention, I'm learning more about her with each visit. I started going to D. Olinger when his daughter was 6, she is now 19. Time does fly. Upon retiring, he did not accept my insurance & that did not stop me from continuing service, I am a cash patient & that is a true testament to the professionalism & compassion of Dr. Olinger & his staff, keep up the good work Sylvia, Claudia, Rosa, Angie & of course Dr. Olinger

I've had many eye exams over the years and nothing came close to what I experienced with Dr Olinger. He was so patient and thorough and did tests that I have not seen before that made me feel extremely confident in the prescription results. He explained everything to me so clearly and I could not ask for a better Optometrist! Angie and Rosa in the Optical department were so welcoming and helpful in my frame and lens choices and also felt confident with their expertise. They have a virtual reality headset that takes measurements for my progressive lenses and this is something else you don't experience at most Optometry offices! I cannot wait to get my glasses!!! EXCELLENT 5 STAR EXPERIENCE!

Dr Fermin is incredibly thorough, knowledgable, professional and very caring. You can tell she truly values the interpersonal relationship with her patients and is service-oriented. I live in West LA and drive down here to see Dr. Fermin because the service is the very best. This may seem like a hyperbolic review but it's been challenging finding optometrists (or doctors) whom have a great bedside manner and spend time w/ their clients. My previous optometrist was always trying to oversell and it gets annoying even when you've declined multiple times. I have a high prescription, differing astigmatism in both eyes and did not have my previous Rx with me at the time of my exam so Dr Fermin had her work cut out for her and my prescription was spot on! Dr. Fermin works with you to find the best contacts/lenses that work with your lifestyle and usage. Laura, the Office Manager is always sweet, helpful and responsive with her replies and scheduling. For a caring professional experience COME HERE!

Warning to the South Bay: This is NOT the local, caring optometry office it pretends to be. They are part of VSP Ventures, a massive corporate giant (Google it & see attached pic), and it shows. They treat patients like numbers on a spreadsheet, not humans and repeatedly got my eye exams wrong. The Negligence: For six years, they failed to diagnose a standard condition I've had since 2017. In July 2025, Dr. Lee removed my astigmatism correction entirely. When I explicitly told her I couldn't see and questioned the prescription, I was dismissed. A manager promised to call me back--no one ever did. The Result: I spent months driving with dangerous, blurry vision and wasted over $3,000 on 9 pairs of useless glasses because I thought better glasses would help me, but the problem was their incompetence. I finally went to a new independent doctor (Leaf Optometry), who immediately diagnosed the issue and confirmed Manhattan Beach Vision Group has been getting it wrong for years after looking over all my previous prescriptions. Do not trust your eyes to this factory. They care about volume, not accuracy. Go to a real local doctor who actually listens and cares.
