Dr Cho and his staff are great. I loved how thorough he was during my eye exam. I don't have any eye issues and I felt confident that he was perfectly evaluating my eyes. He asks questions to get to know you and the next time you come in he mentions those topics. He's really a cool doctor and he bonds with his patients. I only let my family and myself see Dr. Cho for eye exams. He's the best in town. The staff is great and a pleasure to work with. I've been searching for an optometrist the last ten years that is decent and my search stopped with Dr. Cho! read more

Despite of my fear to go to the eye doc, my appointment the other day was great! Very relaxed and stress free! The staff and doctor are the best - friendly and helpful. Up to date equipment and comfortable environment! read more

Dr. Ho Cho is a friend of mine and I decided to get my annual eye exam and new contact lenses from him this past month. I am glad I did! Dr. Cho is very thorough, explains everything to you clearly, and most importantly cares about your eyes and well being! The staff's service was excellent and you felt like you were cared for as well. The decor is unusually "hip" and modern. In addition, Dr. Cho uses the most advanced technologies in his office especially the 3D eye image diagnostic test to see if my eyes were A-OK. I am happy with my new contacts and care by the staff and Dr. Cho at Hip Optics! read more

Dr Cho is very thorough with his exams and his staff are top notch. I drive out of my way to see him because I know I'll be in good hands. Check him out. You won't regret it. read more

I have been going to Dr. Cho for 2 years now and am very happy. The staff is both friendly and courteous. They are very helpful as well. I will not go anywhere else. read more

Dr. Cho is wonderful. He makes you feel so comfortable, and he is extremely thorough. As far as Doctor's go, he is top notch. His staff is friendly, warm, and make you feel like you are the #1 priority. I couldn't recommend a better eye Doctor in all of Riverside County. I send everyone I know to him. He's great. read more

I chose to come to Hip Optics because of all the positive reviews here on Yelp. I had a couple of small issues. The first was, I was contacted by them to let me know that the glasses I ordered was received to them broken and that they where shipping them back for a new set.. This process took an additional 3 weeks. From what I was told by the staff at Hip Optics, was that they where having issues with the UPS delivery driver.. When I finally came in and picked up my new glasses today Dr. Cho was very sincere and apologetic to circumstances that where out of his control. He even went above and beyond and also gave me a gift card to Starbucks for the inconvenience to me. You don't find customer service like this all that often. Thank you Hip Optics for your customer service and I'm very pleased with my new glasses. read more

Great costumer service. Glasses were ready for pick up in a few days. Great variety of frames. Dr. was so caring and sweet! I will definetely recommend this place to everyone! read more

Dr. Cho was great. This was my best optometrist experience ever. He knows what he's doing and makes you feel very comfortable. His office staff were polite and professional as well. I also was happy with the selection of frames and prices. read more

I have been coming to Hip Optics for about 6 years and they are incredible. The staff is so friendly and learns your name so they can remember you when you come back to pick up contacts and glasses. Dr.Cho is so kind and talks through any concerns you may be currently having. I have moved between a few cities and will always make the drive for Hip Optics! read more

Love Dr. Cho!! He is seriously the best optometrist out there. He really cares for his paitents and show great concern.I have been wearing glasses since 2nd grade, soon I've had my share of optometrists. I also like how Dr. Cho knows his paitents name,and makes you feel comfertable in the little eye room thingy you go in. Dr Cho is the bussiness!! read more

Dr Cho is amazing! Very caring and thorough. Dr Cho along with his wonderful staff go above and beyond to make you feel comfortable and well cared for. They also have a great selection of frames. I will definitely recommend Hipoptics to all friends and family! read more

Everyone there is nice and professional. Right away I was greeted with a smile and taken care of right away even though I came in 15 minutes before my appt. I like that Dr. Cho was really sweet and actually made me feel more relaxed, going to any kind of check up makes me nervous especially when it is a new dr. I havent been to before. However, he wasnt like other optometrist I've been to before, we had a casual conversation and he really made me feel like he cared. Oh and the option of frames is amazing! It was really hard to narrow to one I really liked, in a good way. And the fact they accept my insurance was amazing! I'll definitely be a loyal customer from now on. read more

Super friendly staff & very helpful. Dr. Cho is really down to earth & knowledgeable. He takes the time to go through every aspect with you.

Today was our first time at Hip Optics and I couldn't be happier with our visit! We had appointments for myself, my teenage daughter and my elderly parents. Dr. Cho & his staff were very friendly and kind and took time to really make us feel taken care of. Not only that, Dr. Cho was very thorough in his examinations and very knowledgeable about eye care in all stages of life (teen years, middle age, and elderly with cataracts). His office has all the latest technology and he really know how to use them to make sure nothing is missed! I saw some other Yelp reviewer complain about extra tests he likes to run for and extra fee of about $30. each....I know that this is a common practice these days among good eye doctors so that they can really look at the patient's whole eye. For about an extra $60, he can really exam your whole eye/retina and see things that might be missed without these exams and potentially detect any abnormalities early on--and we all know that early detection is key for most diseases--well worth the extra fees I think! I also liked that he didn't try to sell us anything we didn't need. My parent's glasses were still a good dosage so they just kept what they had. I know in the past, we've been to eye doctors that just told us to buy new glasses from them because "it's been a couple of years" even if the change in dosage was extremely minimal and not noticeable at all in sight improvement. Because we were there for a while for all 4 of our appointment times, I saw many patients come and go--many repeat customers--and they seemed to know everyone by name. Also, everyone seemed very happy with their visit--a great sign for any medical practice! Making an appointment was easy and the office staff very friendly. I had to go with my 3 choice of dates though because our dates and time were hard to match with 4 appointments all at once. However, a busy office is a sign of a good doctor so I didn't mind needing to wait a week and a half for my appointment. Make an appointment for your next eye exam.....you won't be sorry! read more

Good service. Came here for eyeglasses. Not a huge selection but gets the job done. Prices are reasonable compared to other places.

Dr.Cho is one of the best Optometrist I have ever been to, all the staff are wonderful , upbeat, and professional . It's also a clean environment ! I never have to wait for my appointment , no overbooking here! Great establishment. If you are looking for a new eye doctor Hip Optics is the place for you. read more

My friend said I was nuts for trusting online reviews to lead me to a good optometry office. But after seeing Dr. Cho's reviews, it was a no-brainer to go and try him out. He and his staff are exactly as described in all the 5-star reviews. They are all amazing. His equipment is very modern, too. I was extremely impressed by my first visit here. I had to pick up my glasses and leave the area for a few months, so I was really depending on this working. Now, I am back four months later, I glad to say that the glasses work fine and I had no trouble passing the vision part of my driver's test. UPDATE: Seeing how well I was served, now the same friend who doubted my judgment also bought his eyeglasses at HIP and is equally well pleased with them. read more

Awesome people! Staff is very friendly and the Dr. Is very patient and explains things in full. They really take care of their clients and always provides reminders for appontments. read more

Definitely my favorite office I've ever visited! All the staff was extremely friendly and quick. Accommodated all my needs and pin pointed my problem when it took over 10 other doctors and they still couldn't figure it until I met this doctor. They truly are amazing. Very up to date on all technology that definitely comes in handy to find the root of all problems. read more

Excellent customer service is reason enough to visit however the real benefit, in my opinion, is the thorough technical exam especially if you go annually (i.e. - depth of data to spot/forecast any potential issues). read more

My family and I have being seeing Dr. Cho for the last five years. I appreciate his attention to detail and the time he invests explaining the condition of his patients eyes. His recommendations are honest, respectful and profesional. I drive 60 miles to see him even though there are many optometrist in my area, Dr Cho is my family's optometrist. He recently moved to a new, ample space with more parking. Congratulations Dr. Cho! We are very happy to see your practice growing. read more

My family goes to Hip Optics and will not go to any other doctor. They are very professional, courteous and the doctor is an expert. My parents have had eye problems for years and Dr. Cho detected the cause immediately. I can't say enough about this eye practice. Do your eyes a favor and go to Hip Optics, you will not be disappointed.They work with most insurances and always try to come up with the best way to optimize your insurance/ money. Not to mention they greet you as you walk in the door. read more

Dr. Cho and his staff are awesome! They are so helpful with explaining benefit coverage and the exam is always thorough and well explained. The office staff is friendly and accommodating always going the extra mile to make you feel comfortable and well informed. read more

My daughters and I have been going to see Dr. Cho for a couple of years now. I've always had a great experience here and I'm particular about where I take my daughters because my youngest has such poor eyesight, poor baby. Dr. Cho is awesome. He always explains what he's doing and what he's seeing. He's extremely patient and doesn't rush through his patients to get to the next. His staff is always helpful and easy to work with. Because kids are kids, glasses do break and the warranty offered has saved me a couple of time. While I quite often read reviews, I rarely leave them.. however, my youngest daughter woke up seeing "zebra stripes" at the beginning of this week and she was very very scared because they weren't going away. I called Dr. Cho's office as soon as they opened, crossing my fingers and toes and eyes, hoping they could squeeze her in.. the gal who answered the phone was very friendly and got my daughter in half an hour later. Unfortunately, I'm a single mom and was not able to get off work to take her myself but my good friend took her and told me how impressed he was this office. My little girl developed a bad migraine in their office and threw up. Staff was caring, comforting and reassuring. They thoroughly examined my daughter and even sent me a follow-up email with a referral document for Kaiser, explaining what their findings were. As a woman who was a stay at home mom for a decade and now feels guilty that she couldn't even go to her child's urgent vision appointment, I am so so grateful for how they cared for my child in my absence and how they kept me informed of what the issue was. Love this place :) read more

I made no appointment just walked in was pretty fast. Staff were very helpful & friendly. Me & my husband walked in right before their lunch time, the close for an hour to go to lunch, and they stayed till anout half n hour past 1 to help me and my husband out. He got his eye exam and the doctor really did a thorough exam. Ablot of doctors now a days just sit you in a chair & walk you right out. This doctor took his time and did a good job. Very satisfied.I found my families new optometrist. read more

I cannot say enough good things about Dr. Cho!! He and his staff are absolutely AMAZING! He has helped me through my LASIK issues and now helped with my 15 month old daughter. He is so very patient and is always understanding! Thanks Dr. Cho for all that you do! read more

My wife and I have been patients here for about a year. Our first visit was amazing. The front office was awesome and very nice. We just had our 2nd visit and the same staff members were amazing. They helped us with our copays. I recommend this office to my friends and family. It's also a plus that they are next to a fruit bar. My wife and kids had something to do while she waited for my exam. I have vision insurance through kaiser and would prefer to come here. They are very informative and nice. The Dr is very personable and explains everything well. read more

Dr. Cho and his staff are amazing. I just found this place by reading all the yelp reviews and it is close to my house. The Dr. and staff made you feel like you have gone there for years. I rarely write reviews but when I find a place that is above and beyond other businesses it needs to be done. Dr. Cho is an ultimate professional and explains clearly the different conditions of the eye. A business that is so customer friendly is rare and this place raises the bar on how to treat customers. I would give them 10 stars if I could! read more

If I could give more than 5 stars I would! It was my first visit to Hip Optics for glasses and an eye exam. I suffer from badly from allergies and most of the time my eyes are red and scratchy. Dr. Ho Young Cho gave me a detailed eye exam that I never received from my regular doctor. He was super thorough and explained my results in a way I could understand. He has been the very 1st doctor that actually gave me insight on the condition of my eyes. He really cares about giving you the right information and is genuine. I had never come here before but it felt like I had been going for years as the service was STELLAR!! I am so glad I found this place. I would recommend them all day every day.. read more

My wife went to her annual eye appointment yesterday and returned very frustrated and disappointed. After three years of loyalty she feels that she was disrespected and treated unfairly. During her consultation with the technician she was offered an optomap (sp) scan which she declined due to it not being covered by our insurance. The tech then told her he could probably get the cost waived. Needless to say after the appointment and tests she was charged for the scan and tests. When she asked the receptionist about the charges she was spoken to in a very rude manner questioning my wife and attracting the attention of other patients/customers in the waiting area. The receptionist then offered to reverse the charges on my wife's credit card but my wife had already been embarrassed and just asked for her receipt and left. During this whole incident my wife had also asked for a new case and was given one that did not even fit her glasses. Unfortunately we will be looking for a new optometrist. May even head back downtown to Dr. Bozner where,after years of patronage, we never received this kind of treatment. read more

My experience at Hip Optics for an eye exam was unlike any other. I can't say enough about the professionalism and kindness demonstrated by Dr. Cho and his staff. I learned more about my eyes than I EVER had in an eye exam. I only wish my family and I had been coming to Hip Optics all along. I highly recommend this office to anyone who needs an eye exam, glasses, or contacts. read more

I've been wearing glasses since the 2nd grade and had the same doctor for years. When I moved to Orange County, I jumped from optometrist to optometrist but I never felt as if they did a thorough job with my check-ups. I tried getting contacts but they would never be clear. I finally went to Dr. Cho and he went above and beyond to make sure I got the right fit for my contacts. I highly recommend Dr. Cho! read more

Quick and painless, very friendly doc and staff. Makes you feel comfortable, funny and they don't use that air puff in eye and makes you jump out if your seat. read more

i just called to make a appointment and they wouldnt take me as a new patient unless i was diabetic?

I was impressed with Dr. Cho the minute I met him. He walked right up to me, put out his hand and introduced himself. He was open, honest and very informative. The care I received at his office was above and beyond anything I ever expected. Not only did my original appointment include follow up visits, Dr. Cho arranged for me to check in with a specialist at no charge to me. How many doctor's do that for anyone in this day and age ? I am back to normal now and will continue to see Dr. Cho for regular care of my eyes. You will be doing yourself a great service to make time to see this guy. Nice office staff, very friendly. HipOptics is a happy place to go and it's the people that make it !! read more

Didn't get the pleasure of personally experiencing the hands-on care of the Doctor pe se, but I will say that he is very unprofessional. Sent my child home with the wrong-sized glasses and no case. When asked for a case, he told me he just didn't have any that fit. Dr. Cho totally took advantage of the fact that I was a new patient, and didn't know squat about optometry. Picked this place based on location. Stupid move on my part. Yet another strip-mall failure! I will take my business to an optometrist who actually cares, and knows how to send a patient on their way with appropriate fitting glasses and a case, without an clipped attitude attached to it! read more

My review is only on the fees this practice charges. You miss an appointment they will charge you $ 25. To get a complete copy of you prescription, including all accurate information to purchase glasses from another vendor, they will charge you $ 25. And these charges are not disclosed in advance. Dr is great. Staff is friendly but the EXTRA CHARGES for a RX is crazy and disappointing. read more

I had two eye exams here and I was not satisfied with their work. Both times I was asked to come back and redo part of the exam. They could still not do their exam right and both times I was asked to come a third time. They can't do a simple exam right, other optometrists have not had problems. I was charged for just any excuse that they can think of and tried to convince me of any unnecessary upgrades. For my second visit I made an appointment to get contacts. I was herded into getting the exam. No one double checked with me wether I wanted glasses or contacts. It turns out the exam was for glasses. I was then told that there would be an additional charge if I wanted to get the exam for contact lenses. I found a much better optometrist (which was not too difficult). I did order my glasses from Hip Optics since they were the only ones who carried the Gucci glasses that I wanted. I was not planning to leave a review, but what they did was way past the last straw. They have a Yelp offer to get a small eyeglass cleaner upon checking in. After I checked I was told that it was pending a review. I did not get my eyeglass cleaner despite my review. read more
