    My new pair of sunglasses on the left, my everyday glasses that Mr. Kim adjusted on the right. Thank you Mr. Kim!

    Mr. Kim has been my optician since grade school. My family has followed him from when he was at Koreatown Plaza to when he opened up Eyeland Optical at the mall on Wilshire Blvd. Now he is permanently situated at City Center on 6th street! I've never picked out my frames. Mr. Kim would pick the perfect frames for my face shape and I always receive compliments from my friends and even from strangers. I just got a new pair of sunglasses and when it was ready, I brought in my other frames that he adjusted for me! You can tell that Mr. Kim loves his craft and he takes pride doing what he does. I usually end up staying for a bit because we'll just catch up on life and everything in between! It's really nice to know that you can visit Eyeland Optical and feel right at home. In addition, you won't find a better selection of all types of glasses for you! There is also an optometrist on site so you can get your eyes checked out. I believe the optometrist is there until 3 PM but do call and schedule an appointment if you need to be seen by one. Otherwise, definitely go visit Mr. Kim at Eyeland Optical and have him pick out the perfect glasses for you! Oh and he does take insurance! So if you do have vision insurance, definitely let Mr. Kim know and he will help you out. Thank you Mr. Kim, for all that you do!

    Good prices, great service, excellent selection. As a family we've purchased probably at least fifteen pairs from Eyeland.

My last optometrist strengthened my previous prescription because I'd said I couldn't read fine print on my TV, but what they needed to do was correctly assess my vision, which (surprisingly!) had improved. Now, with Dr. Osaka's new prescription, I can actually see again, thank goodness! And yesterday, when I went to pick up my glasses, Jacqueline, the general manager, went well out of her way to take care of me. She was so friendly and kind, and shetreated me with such warmth, dignity, and respect. I am so grateful to her and to Tim, the super-friendly and clearly talented lab technician who took care of an important need I had for my new lenses. All in all, I am thrilled that I have found such a terrific optometrist office! I love my wonderful new glasses and the beautiful case that came with them, and I LOVE the fact that I can finally see! Thank you all at Friedman Optometry!

Jacqueline immediately worked to correct the error in the rebates that I was supposed to receive for my contact lens order. She consistently followed up with Friedman Optometry's contact lens representative to speed up the rebate process, and she also checked in with me daily to assure me that the issue was actively being worked on. After less than a week, I received the full amount that I was owed, along with an extra supply of contact lenses to make up for the delay. I appreciate Jacqueline's diligence and her efforts to make things right.

I trusted Dr. Lee so much for her honesty and thoroughness that I stayed with this clinic for years, even though I knew their prices were higher than other places. ​However, I recently realized how much I was overcharged by the store manager. My daughter's vision insurance allows us to apply the frame allowance toward contact lenses if we don't buy frames, making the contact lenses much cheaper. Yet, the store manager told me contacts were not covered at all and charged me full price out-of-pocket. Furthermore, our insurance actually covers high-index (compressed) lenses, but the manager lied, claiming high-index lenses weren't covered, and made me pay around 3-400 every time. ​I admit it was my mistake for not fully checking our insurance policy beforehand. But as a long-term, loyal patient, I expected honesty at the very least. ​Today, I went to the UCI Health Optometry Clinic, used our insurance properly, and saved a lot of money. While I still deeply respect Dr. Lee, the way the store manager runs the business is completely unacceptable. I am beyond disappointed.
