The staff at that location is incredibly kind and thoughtful! I just discovered I needed a prescription and everything was laid out very plainly for me- and the inside of the store is really beautiful! Really nice brands of frames, and the plants there are well kept too, which is a big bonus lol. read more

My husband goes to Hello Optometry for his vision exams and glasses. He likes that they carry the Eco brand because they have a magnetic sunglasses lens that he can put over his glasses. This makes it simple so he doesn't have to carry sunglasses with him. The exams are quick and easy. The doctor spends time going through it all with you and makes you feel listened to. He has seen both doctors here and thinks they are both great. A plus is that he could use his frames from last time and just get new lenses. They ordered the new lenses and we came back a week later for them to replace. It only took them about 45 mins, so we went and spent time in the circle. A note on insurance- they will have you pay out of pocket and then when insurance processes, you will receive a reimbursement check in the mail. read more

I needed a new Optometrist, so I made an appointment, and I am so glad I did. I'm so grateful for Dr. Michelle Cho. Her service, knowledge, patience, and communication were so appreciated. I never thought I could see this clearly with my astigmatism. She matched my prescription as well as it can be, and I wanted to cry when I started using my glasses. THANK YOU! read more

Such a nice location and beautiful space. They are somewhat new to the area. Opened around 2021 I think. Easy booking and staff are very nice and accommodating. Dr Edward was very patient to my young boys for their check up. Recommend this spot read more

Dr Michelle really listened to what my concerns were with my eyesight and gave me options for consideration. Free parking in the back and easy access. Thank you! read more

Had a phenomenal experience here with a routine eye check. The doctor that saw me was extremely knowledgeable and helpful. I highly recommend if you need a check up, contacts or new glasses. Got some Gotti Swiss glasses that are quite nice. read more

I was very happy that I was able to get a same-day appointment. I also appreciate that Dr. Edward gave me a copy of my prescription and I didn't even ask for it. The staff at my prior optometrist's office would die a little bit inside when I asked for it. read more

Well informed staff with great customer service. Going to be returning soon for my next pair of glasses. That will be my 3rd pair from Hello over the last several years. read more

New to Orange and needed an optometrist. This place is so cute and conveniently within the Orange Circle area. I called and they accept VSP. Making an appointment with Dr. Tran was easy. Upon arrival, they were so nice and quickly all the pre-check. Dr. Tran was thorough. I have never seen a doctor as thorough. He did the standard checks but also educated me on eye care. I didn't feel rushed like other places. He took time to get to know me and my needs. I did get some sunglasses and he was able to do that on the spot with little waiting. Loved my experience here. read more

I'm so happy I came across them after deciding not to go back to my prior Optometrist office. Dr. Cho and Jocelyn are awesome. Great patient care. They make the overall annual eye exam comfortable. Thank you so much Hello Optometry!!! Hello Optometry (Owner) a week ago We are happy to hear it was a comfortable experience for you! Nicole Iannaccone 4 reviews·1 photo just now New Hello Optometry has given me 20-20 vision after 3 decades of uncorrectable eye issues! If you have complicated or poor eyes, you need Dr. Michelle Cho. She will put in as much time, effort, customizing, and patient education as it takes to get you to healthy, perfect vision. Hello Optometry also charges low prices, especially given the exceptional amount of time and effort Dr. Cho puts into each follow-up. ... I have poor, complicated vision due to several problems such as Meibobian Gland Dysfunction, Dry Eye syndrome, and eye allergies in my heavily astagmatic and myopic eyes. As a result, at age 35 I'd given up on reaching anything close to adequate vision! I was about to go under the knife for Lasik because in all of my years at various optometrists, no one could ever bring my vision anywhere near other people's. And every other optometrist I'd been to just threw up their hands... it appeared contacts simply could not correct vision as poor as mine. Dr. Michelle Cho showed them all wrong. After walking in off the street and getting a comprehensive contact lens exam, Dr. Cho had me seeing better than I had since I was ten. A couple follow-ups later and I can FINALLY say, for the first time in 3 decades: I can see "20-20"!! I never imagined this would be possible for me without surgery. Michelle had to keep ordering me more and more specialized, practically custom astigmatism contacts and then evaluating exactly how they sat in my eye & how much they moved when I blink to find the perfect, customized prescription for my vision and eye health. She also evaluated and started treatment for my severe dry eye syndrome and allergies. Throughout all this, Dr. Cho explained everything she was doing and observing, and I felt like we were truly working together to fix my eyes. Dr. Michelle Cho is the definitely the most capable, kind, and skilled optometrist I've ever been to. I cannot recommend her highly enough. * * * December 2024: Years later, I still go to Dr. Cho. Every time I go, she teaches me something new about my eyes. She teaches me about my MGD, what the newest treatments are and whether I'm a good candidate, she helps with coupons and prior authorizations... She is genuinely the most caring and knowledgeable optometrist I've ever encountered. I will continue to go back to Dr Cho as long as I live in California. * * * March 2025: How does she keep getting better? I love this optometrist. She spends SO much time with you, using every ounce of medical expertise and newest technology to try to fix your problem. My astigmatism is terrible and my dry eye is worse and she is constantly pulling out all the stops to try new tech and new options to get me some relief. She never gives up and she never gets tired of hearing my complaints! She has all the latest tech and is incredibly up to date on the state of the art. She's also just really funny and sweet, I genuinely like visiting her. Jocelyn is the best!! The whole office is great. Love this place. read more

This place is hands down the BEST optometrist in Orange County! Dr. Edward is so kind, extremely thorough and so genuine. His staff is also very helpful and sweet too! It felt like a very personal experience and we will forever be going back to see Dr. Ed! Thank you guys! Me and my baby love our new glasses!!! Hugs :) xoxo Luv Megan & Rylee read more

I've been a longtime patient of Dr. Tran, and he has always provided excellent care. Recently, I developed an eye infection and called the day before -- he made sure to schedule me in the very next day and prioritized my care. He explained everything clearly, treated me with kindness, and made me feel at ease. I really appreciate his attentiveness and professionalism. read more

hands down my fav optometry clinic ! absolutely loved the front desk service, the aesthetic of the place, and most importantly the optometrist Dr. Edward Tran !

He goes above and beyond as to helping you choose out a pair of glasses which is suiting to you! definitely recommend :^) read more

Great experience from start to finish! Dr. Edward and his team were great. We were running 30 mins late and they still fit us in without hesitation. Their glasses selection is great and all of the equipment seemed top of the line. Most of all, Dr. Edward's demeanor is very easy to get along with and professional. read more

Amazing staff, super quick and fixed my glasses perfectly that I broke! Highly recommend!

This place is great. Right in OldTowne Orange and they have service like the good old days here in Orange. I have been here 2x. Once for basic exam and glasses. They are open a lot so they have choices for appointments. And I have walked in for an "emergency" (turned out not to be) check and they were super accommodating. My insurance covered near everything. Thanks again to Hello. They can service your prescription glasses as well so go see them. Support small local business. read more

Hello Optometry team is welcoming, detailed and the customer service surpasses Nordstrom! They are attentive and gifted at helping you pick the exact frames that are best for you. They take the stress of the process and attend to you in a personal shopper fashion. I love this store, their product and their expertise. Highly recommend! read more

Wandered in the office one day after having lunch and immediately fell in love with their selection. I didn't need an exam as I already have a specialist but was interested in their frames. Dr. Michelle and her staff didn't hesitate to help me out. We tried on everything, I got honest opinions, laughed and got to know each other! They entertained my tiny teenage toddler too LOL. I ordered frames that took a couple weeks to come in and they sent me text updates almost every few days just to keep me in the loop. I appreciated the transparency and communication. I'm so glad they've found a home here in Old Towne, it's nice to have exceptional and trustworthy businesses in town that. They get 5 stars from me! read more

Hello Optometry - Andy Wolf frames, so comfortable and awesome style! - Optometrists Near Me - Orange, California

Visited Dr. Michelle on a Wednesday and she quickly took care of all of my needs and concerns. I work remotely and stare at a computer or phone screen for 10+ hours a day. I noticed my vision changing and she quickly assessed my eyes. She told me how she wants to correct/help with the strain and it really eased my mind since I am fully remote employee. I ordered glasses from a huge selection. She also helped me complete my reimbursement form for VSP. Office is clean, bright, and super cute! I can honestly say I love their aesthetic! It is right near the Orange Circle that has a bunch of stores and restaurants. You can definitely make a day of it! Highly recommend! read more

Small but very clean office with friendly and helpful staff. I didn't feel pressured to buy anything or upgrade my lenses. Super quick turn around time which is useful in situations where you need new lenses for your existing frames ASAP. They have an interesting concept, one that I've never heard before. They don't take insurance, which works out for those who don't have vision insurance because their prices are lower compared to other offices that do accept insurance. If you do have insurance, they will help you get reimbursed but it's out of network. I came here on Monday evening around 3 pm with 2 pairs of old glasses that needed updated lenses for my new prescription. I didn't even have my prescription but they were able to get that information from my old optometrist office in Las Vegas. The optometrist, Dr. Tran, went over my options with me and pricing. I went with thinner lenses (polycarbonate) with blue light protection since I'm always using the computer. Pricing was very fair! I didn't get it done in Vegas because Optic Gallery and LensCrafters wanted to charge me way more. I was worried that they wouldn't be done in time since I was only in town for 2 days. I received a text the following day saying that my glasses were ready for pickup! My fiancé also picked out a pair of glasses and they were also ready for pick up the following day. Everything gets done in house instead of having to deal with insurance and sending out to one of their labs which is why they have a quick turn around time. A downside is that they don't carry the usual brands you normally see like Prada, Oakley, Tiffany & Co, Ray Ban, etc. but the brands they carry seemed pretty durable and unique. They have MASQ, manomos, article one, MODO, ECO, Matsuda, crispin and Plak. My fiance got a gold MANOMOS frame. He says it's light weight and comfortable. read more

Michelle and her team are absolutely amazing! They have Saturday availabilities and also communicate via texts. The frames they have in store are stunning and there's a lot to choose from. I've personally been to countless optometrists since I've been wearing glasses for as long as I could remember. Michelle was the first one who figured out I have chronic allergies. The eye drops she recommended has helped tremendously with what I thought was just dry eyes. Needless to say, I'm very grateful as the irritation in my eyes have gotten more severe the past couple years. I was also offered a couple of extra pair of contacts samples since my order was delayed. Hello Optometry team had truly cared about my experience. I wish them continuous success with the business! read more

Went in for my annual eye exam and was helped by Dr. Michelle. She addressed all my concerns. The staff is warm and friendly. I didn't have my insurance card with me, and everything was handled via text/email after. Made my life a lot easier. The office was also super cute! Highly recommend. read more

I wondered into HELLO Optometry today .... I was greeted by a very friendly staff.. The store is very clean and has wonderful plants . I experienced my first eye exam with Dr. Edward . He was kind and explained everything he was doing. My overall experience was very good ... Affordable ... fast ... friendly Wonderful selection of frames !! What a great location !! read more

Elizabeth was very kind and understanding. The place is very clean and well organized. I'd recommend it to anyone.

I went in to get the nose pads on my glasses replaced, and was quickly helped at no charge!

My wife use to work around this area and we would walk past this newly minted optometry shop. We both needed new glasses and both doctors were amazing, friendly, and thoughtful in helping us pick out our new glasses. They have very affordable glasses and make it easy to pick your new specs. 10/10 would come back. read more

All I can say is wow!!!! Meeting Dr. Cho today for the first time it was a breath of fresh air. Her warmth was felt as soon as I enter her cute little boutique in Old Town Orange. From my initial call with her assistant to the end of my appointment, truly an outstanding service. Being in the health industry myself I can appreciate another professional taking the time to hear my concerns and address my needs. I was impressed with the time she took for my eye exam and the time she took to educate me on my new multifocal lenses. I also got to meet her cute little dog Marshal who is adorable. Her office is truly a gem!!! One of the best optometrists in Orange as far as I am concerned. Thank you Dr. Cho and staff. read more

I just received my new glasses from Hello Optometry. They are terrific, i have a very complex prescription. The office visit was as smooth a glass, the quality of the glasses far exceed previous purchases from Lens Crafters. The customer service provided by Dr. Tran was exceptional, we discussed my vision, the probable causes for my vision issues, and if there are existing things I can do on my own to help my eye hygiene & care....he cares, I can't ever remember, in over 55 years of having my eyes examined, a doctor who asked these important questions....Dr. Tran & Hello Optometry have a new life long customer...thank you read more

Wonderful business! She really listens to the customer and made small changes to perfect my prescription. When the contact company back ordered my contacts, Hello Optometry made sure I had more than enough free contacts to until my order came, kept me updated on the status of my order, and checked in regularly to make sure I didn't run out. read more

Hello Optometry has a very unique selection of glasses, with brands I haven't seen! If you're in the market for something unique, this is the place. I came in as a walk-in and luckily the wait was very short. Dr. Tran was attentive, personable, and knowledgeable. His staff was also very friendly. Dr. Tran helped me narrow down my selections and we ended up with a new pair of glasses that I love! Very glad to have a new optometrist in the neighborhood, a welcome addition to the Orange Circle. read more

This place is super awesome. Dr Tran is awesome. He got me in and out in less than a half hour. He also gave me a bunch of sweet goodies. The whole place is very clean and well set up. They are open all day on Sunday which was very convenient for me as i ripped a contact and was only able to see out of one eye. I am definitely going to return to this establishment going forward. Oh one last thing that i thought was pretty cool is the location. It's right off the circle of old town Orange, across the street from the bbq restaurant called Smoqued. It almost next door to the Native American store called Motaska Trading Company. Check them out! read more

Hello Optometry is a fine establishment at The Orange Circle. Dr. Tran and his team are professional and considerate of my needs. Unlike some franchise optometry businesses, Hello Optometry did an outstanding job in explaining the health of my eyes. They have quality eyewear, and they provide quality customer service. read more

Guys, I highly recommend this shop!!! This is my first experience at this shop and it was so great!!! FAST AND PROFESSIONAL SERVICE AFFORDABLE PRICE I lost my glasses and I really need them for driving. I found this place on Yelp with 5 stars. That's why I called them during office hours for an appointment and told them this was an emergency. However, I was unable to come on time and text them. They moved my appointment to another time. They did my three check-ups for eyes, glasses and contact lenses, and my new glasses only in ONE hour with AFFORDABLE prices. I was so impressed by their FAST and PROFESSIONAL service. Also, because it will be my first time to wear eye contact. They taught me how to wear and clean them. They also explained me how to protect my eyes and my glasses. Very considerate staffs!! I also suggested this eye shop to my friends and coworkers. They all agree that it's a GOOD price. I don't usually write reviews, but I have to do it because of amazing experience that I had. Thank you for your service, Hello Optometry and keep doing great work! read more
