Let me begin by saying, like all people looking for eye correction treatment in the beginning, it…read morecan be daunting to think about. Not being educated on what EVOicl, Lasik, and smile treatments are, I came into my first consultations not knowing a thing. Needless to say my counselor Christine took the lead in enlightening me on which procedure was right for my eyes. For context, my eyes were both around -6.5 with bad astigmatism. She ran through the entire process and explained what to expect going into my operation. Overall, from the beginning to the end, I felt safe, secure, and well-educated in every step of the process. The surgery itself was held at their Rowland Heights location, and the office staff/ doctors were super friendly and helpful. Dr Patrick Pham knew what to say to relieve any stress going into the treatment, and was well spoken throughout. With their multiple branches, I had the pleasure of going to their Westminster location for my post-op appointments. If you're looking to get eye surgery done, look no further. IQ Laser will get you right. I am beyond happy to exclude contacts from my daily routine!

Bizarre unprofessional "consultation". Quick check of your eyes by maybe an optometrist and then…read morethe rest of your "consultation" is spent with a salesperson who calls herself a coordinator. When I told her I was interested in RLE surgery, she lit up and a huge smile came across her face! Because it is the pricier vision surgery. A consultation would be learning about the patient and making recommendations. Nope, the entire time was pushing the surgery and a particular surgeon who I could only meet after I put down a $100 refundable deposit to lock in their 1k discount offer. This is eye surgery!!!! Not buying a used car or getting a gym membership. Prior to this place, I have had several enlightening consultations with the surgeons themselves. I wouldn't trust my eyes to this extremely tacky place.

Been thinking about getting LASIK and I finally decided to get it done after extensive research. I…read morechose this place based on positive reviews here on yelp and responsiveness during my initial inquiries. First, I scheduled a virtual consult on a Friday which took about 15minutes. The staff was able to answer majority of my questions. After which, I went on a Tuesday to have the in-person check up and scans done. I went to determine if I was a candidate for PRK (4-day recovery) or LASIK (1-day recovery). Shelly was the one who assisted me. Then my surgery was scheduled that Friday. I arrived at 12:30pm as schedule. The scans were redone for accuracy. The LASIK procedure was done at around 2pm and lasted for approximately 15mins. They give you valium 30minutes before and Xanax after to help you sleep. The process I would say is 5/10 in terms of pain. There's a pressure in your eye then the laser. After the procedure, there's a lot of burning's sensation and it's difficult to open your eyes. That's why they recommend to sleep for at least 6 hours to give your eyes a rest and recover. They give you eye shields and glasses and there will be eye medications that you need to instill for 7days and eye drops for 3 months. You need to come back the following day for a follow up. The following morning, I am able to see clearly but a little bit cloudy. Both doctors were nice and have a great bedside manner. Overall, I highly recommend this place for LASIK. They do have payment options, one of is care credit, 18months zero interest.

Dr. Dang does not discuss necessary information with the patient…read more The first time I visited his office, the test showed my intraocular pressure (IOP) at 24 which is higher than the normal range of 10-21. Even then he did not tell me that the particular IOP reading was at my left eye only. A month later and after 3 tests today, Dr. Dang told me I had glaucoma and needed eye drop for my left eye the rest of my life without any further elaborating about the situation of my eye such as how severity of that eye damage, what other option I have for the treatment, what life style I should adopt to reduce the progressive of the disease. He never asked me if I had any question. When I asked about my situation he stood up and left his office as a way to send me out. This is rude and unacceptable. I was capable of understanding about the disease which I had researched before I came to his office. In short, he showed that he did not care much about the well being of his patients. There was sign of his arrogance the first time I was in his office that I ignored. When I mentioned that I didn't see the ball well when playing tennis. He said tennis was bad for health and went on to give some reasons that I thought his knowledge about overall health and exercise was very limited. In addition, he prejudged me as someone who did not know much about that topic or as much as he did. Both were not true. My advice: avoid this ophthalmologist.

​I really wanted to love this local office because Dr. Amy Dinh was very nice and helpful, and the…read moreframe selection is great. However, my experience on the sales and fitting side mirrored the other negative reviews I found online. I went in on 3/2/26 prepared to invest in a full new setup including Kate Spade frames with progressive transition lenses, but I walked away 400 dollars out of pocket with glasses that are completely unusable. ​My primary need is seeing my computer screen, but when I sit down everything is blurry. Instead of addressing the lens issue, the staff tried to "rig" the frames by adding double nose pads and bending the ear pieces so tightly they dug into my head to force the glasses higher. When I returned after my first pair was finished on 3/16, a different staff member admitted the lenses were made incorrectly, yet they repeatedly mentioned a one-time fee for the correction as if the error was my fault. ​Between the initial fitting and the follow-ups, I spoke directly with four different staff members on the sales and fitting side. I received a second set of lenses on 3/25, but they were just as blurry. Trying to find the "sweet spot" in the prescription caused so much eye strain that I was in tears by 10 AM the next day. When I finally asked for a refund, they refused and even told my insurance company no. I am now out 400 dollars, I still do not have functional glasses, and I was never even given a copy of my prescription. ​I have officially filed a formal complaint with the California State Board of Optometry regarding the refusal to refund for a non-functional medical device. I am also reporting the office for violating the FTC Eyeglass Rule, as I was never provided a copy of my prescription after my exam. While the energy in the office is positive, the policies regarding defective products and the lack of empathy for inaccurate results is unsettling. If your prescription doesn't work out the first time, be prepared for a very difficult and expensive struggle.

This is a review for my five-year-old daughters visit. I was a longtime customer for over five…read moreyears. We had a bad experience with the optometrist and staff being rude when I realized they ordered an incorrect prescription. I wouldn't have known if I didn't insist on asking my daughter if she could see properly after trying on the new glasses. Even though they admitted being wrong they seemed to point the finger at me even though it was their fault. I had to insist on them admitting their mistake so it wouldn't happen to someone else, but they decided to no longer take my daughter as a patient. When I asked for refund, they then changed their mind and said we will allow you to come back for one year while I had warranty and they would no longer want her back. Unless your famous or important, they don't seem to care about their customers. Being a longtime loyal customer doesn't mean anything here. Also, my son who was eight-year-old at the time also had an issue with an incorrect eyeglass lenses order that I didn't know till a year later! I've ordered polarized lenses so my son can comfortably wear his glasses in the sun, but Surf City Optometry charged me for polarized lenses without even adding it to my son's eyeglasses. I'm afraid this wasn't the only time they messed up. When I found out a year later, there was no apology or refund provided. I had to tell them about several times for just a reimbursement since they refused to apologize for any of their mistakes. I bring this up in case anyone goes there to double check what they order since they do mess up. Again, being a longtime loyal customer doesn't mean anything here. I have all the paperwork and evidence. This place is a hit and miss. Like I said I was a longtime customer before these issues came up but once they do don't expect them to care.
