From the moment I arrived, the front desk staff checked me in quickly and confirmed all my information. I only waited about five minutes before being called in for the eye tests. Today, Marisela, the optician who helped me, was absolutely wonderful -- super friendly, patient, and made sure I understood every step. She walked me through all the options and explained the costs clearly, which I really appreciate. Dr. Flores has always been so knowledgeable and takes the time to explain everything about my prescription and eye health in detail. You can tell she truly cares about her patients. The office is very clean, organized, and easy to find with a convenient parking lot, which makes the whole experience even smoother. Highly recommend Dr. Flores and her team -- they've consistently provided amazing care and customer service year after year!

They had great reviews and are close to home. I just picked up my first pair of perfect glasses from them! They have equipment my last optometrist did not have. Dr. Flores gave me a very thorough exam and worked with me to dial in my very difficult and different prescription. That was last year. This year, the same great customer service and exam doctor. I actually was able to "walk in" and be seen right after 9 this morning. I highly recommend this office for your eye care needs. Oh, they've got a nice selection of brand names...good stuff!

I kind of wish I could gate keep this business, but it's a disadvantage to the people who want a good eye doctor. I've been to Walmarts optometrist, Costco's eye exams, and a couple of other optometrists around the Bay Area (Oakland was my last place) they pretty much offered the same type of general service "you don't ask, you don't tell". When I went to Dr. Leung, she had a a two woman team that runs the entire show. They both take you through tests to ensure they are not missing anything. They pointed out that my current glasses did not have the correct prescription for my eyes and the material was not what I thought it was, ( I did wonder about this bc the lens started peeling) I was basically paying for plastic. Dr. Leung is not like Kaiser, where you are pushed out because someone else is waiting. She throughly evaluates you and is very passionate about what she does. I have a slightly rare condition with my eyes, my old optometrist kept getting confused as to why my vision was not returning to normal after my pregnancy was done. When I went to Dr. Leung on my first visit, she called out my condition and was able to help me get the correct prescription. These glasses have been the best pair I have ever received. If you can understand my relief as no doctor has ever brought this up. She had the instinct to say "you look normal, but there's something else behind your situation" and I immediately was impressed. Flash forward the following year, she still has the same spunky personality and all of the special equipment to do everything herself. I asked her why does she have all of this new technology and she explained how she wants to deliver good service and if she can do things without waiting weeks for labs, why not provide that to her clients. It's nice to actually get exceptional service.

I've been going to The Optician since 2018 and my god it has changed my life and how I've viewed glassesware! I didnt even realize that glasses needed to be adjusted to your own face and the amount of comfort it gives you over the entire day, amazing! I never feel fatigued after adjustments done to my frames with them. Simply amazing. I have about 10 pairs of glasses with them now and have brought most people I know who wear glasses into the store for a new pair or two or three of glasses and the level of care and attention to detail to everyone I bring and myself is so above and beyond with what I've gotten in the past before I found The Optician. They not only help guide what looks good on you but also listen to the comfort/needs of the client in such a nuanced way that really lets the person pick what they feel the best in! Not to mention the unbridled enthusiasm when someone finds a pair that they're so in love with is just... chef's kiss moment! Honestly can't wait to start shopping for a new pair every year :)

Everything was empty but walked up to the counter where a man whose straightforwardness and seemed-expertise rival that of Mike from Breaking Bad stood. My very expensive, rimless frames from the 2018-19 era seemed to have a missing screw. I did NOT want to do this myself since I could very easily scratch the lens and just royally F it up in every way possible (even though it was just a screw). The man behind the counter told me to give him a few minutes and that it would be 5 bucks. I was thrilled. I left and returned home in a span of literally 30 minutes.....

The office is in the corner but unfortunately parking can sometimes be very difficult to find. If there is parking, it's metered at about $1.50 per hour. The office itself is pretty small with four chairs for waiting and I think two or three cubicle-like exam rooms. The desk staff are usually pretty nice and accommodating, although I will say I've previously interacted with someone there who seemed really impatient with me which I didn't appreciate (not sure if they still work there now). The optometrists themselves are very professional and understanding, I've worked with two of them before and both were kind and explained everything to me that I needed to know! También ellos tienen traductoras por hispanohablantes. Since the office is small, the selection of glasses was small, too. I've gone before and they had almost no glasses on display, but today they had a bigger selection, just not as much as other places I've seen. They have a variety of brands like Gucci, Versace, Mont Blanc, Prada, etc.. I think the staff can help you select frames that are not on display either since they can access the website of frames. Overall this place has good service for optometry but may be inconvenient to access and can feel cramped at times. The selection of frames on display is OK at best but if you are really picky about your frames, you may want to look elsewhere.
