    Got these towards the end of 2014, still working Sunday 10 September 2023.
    Tanis L.

    Dream Vision Eye Care was where I went for my eye exams and glasses when I was attending the University of Hawai'i at Mānoa (2012 to 2015). I still use (today is Sunday 10 September 2023) one of the pairs of glasses I got here, the other pair broke earlier this year (in April 2023). For my appointments, I chose to walk to the office from where I was living at the time, on-campus, though I did observe nearby street parking for those who drove. For each of my exams my doctor was professional and friendly and picking out frames and lenses was straightforward. My health insurance covered one pair of glasses every 18 months and I got my first pair in 2013 (thicker plastic Ray Bans frame), which my insurance did a good job on covering. The second pair I got about November/December 2014, which was a couple months before my insurance would cover a second pair. I needed the glasses for a conference and went with the paying out-of-pocket option. Even out of pocket, the price was good (this second pair was metal/plastic Coach frame). Thinned lenses were available for my high prescription, though that did cost a little more. My first pair, the Ray Bans, lasted about a decade (2013 to April 2023) and I was very happy with. They ultimately snapped when my parents' dog ran into the side of my face when I was doing yard work one day. The second pair, the Coach frame glasses, are coming up on year nine in age and I continue to use. Very happy with both pairs, their longevity, and my overall experience with Dream Vision Eye Care.

    Went here to get and eye exam and fitted for contacts. It is kind of hidden across the street from the Wedding ring shop. I've been lucky and have found metered parking right in front on both occasions. The front entrance is locked but employees open it up right away. Very professional and helpful staff. They really take their time in helping each customer. I asked for prices for about 5 different frames and she wrote it all down and put it in my file. They were so patient with me and I really appreciated that. They also put in my new lenses into an old frame. Took about 20-25 minutes to change out. They even adjusted the frames to make them tighter for me. They really do care about their customers. I ended up getting a pair of frames with my eye insurance and they gave me an additional 20% off. The store is clean, comfortable and relaxing. Definitely recommend you give them at try!

    I have been seeing Dr. Poon, I believe over ten years now, and love how she is thorough and caring. Also everyone who works there is efficient and respectful. When you purchase contact lenses and glasses, the staff explains to you until you fully understand the products and never pushes or leads you to buy anything. I feel confident and comfortable to see the doctor and purchase eye care products.

    My very new eyeglasses & happy!

    I've been with Dream Vision for some years now & I am happy to get my eye check-up here every other year! They are fast in doing your eye test and very great people skills of customer service. I would recommend to go here! Since I made an appointment, I didn't have to wait long to be called to see doctor! Great company!

I haven't gone to see him in close to 4 years so I have no idea. In the search for a new eye doctor that was near me Downtown Vision came up and with really good reviews. Being the holiday season they were busy so it took a month to be able to get an appointment on my day off but it was well worth the wait. Dr. Chun and his wife Mia are terrific! They're both extremely personable and I felt welcomed from the moment I stepped into their office. I ended up getting a pair of progressive bifocal glasses that I can use for work and close reading. I also had my regular distance lenses replaced on my older set and I couldn't be happier with both of them. I have no hesitation recommending them if you're in need of eye care.

My eyes were red and inflamed and nothing I did helped overnight to stop the swelling. It literally went down south within 24 hours. I did a quick Yelp search for doctors around kaimuki. If not, I would have probably just tried urgent care. I stumbled about this Yelp page and noticed it was nearby and open late so I could hopefully get an appointment later in the day. Luckily for me - they took me as a new patient and I was squeezed in towards the end of the day. The office is on the second floor in the kaimuki plaza building across the two major municipal lots. They advised me to park in those lots - the meter one is actually cheaper than the one next to it. I then checked in, gave my Id and insurance card and answered a few questions on a iPad, then met with Dr. Richard M. He was very nice and patient for the first meeting. It went fairly fast and I was out of there within 30 minutes. My eye drops were sent to a nearby pharmacy and was ready to pick up when I got there. I did a follow up appointment today to see how my eye and face was doing and it is so much better than 2 days ago! I'm so lucky to have gotten a last minute appointment because I really don't think that my swollen eye and face would have healed on it's own if I didn't go.

Once I submitted their online form, I got a call back and Robert left me a detail message including pricing. He said to go in for Aiea location for the consultation. The day I went in, the office looked really cluttered and unorganized. I saw muliple personal items of the staffs just left around in the office... When I was doing the eye exam, I could not see well on one eye, was wondering why....then after a while I figured their machine lense was dirty, and I had to tell the Dr. it was the lense. I have never had that happen to me at an eye doctor before. The price I got over the phone was 4100 dollars for military dependent. My friend who was also a military dependent at the time paid 3800 for both eyes. I negotiated with the Dr. and he said he could do it for 3900. A month later, I got a bill for thier FREE consultation priced over $240. I was stunned because on the website it said free and even the day of the consultation, I made sure with the receptionist as well. (Matter fact I have never seen any eye doctor who does not do free consultation for lasik). I called the office to have the matter corrected numerous times and the lady who is in charge of billing never picks up her phone so I left voice messages every time, yet NEVER calls me back. I went on their website again and they clearly say free consultation. On top of that, now I found the price list for lasik and they quoated me higher price than what it is listed on their websited even after the negotiation. This business is a scam. I would never ever get anything done here if I were you. I totally believe the one star review someone else left about this Dr. office.
