So.... This office is ridiculously unprofessional... I scheduled an eye appt last year that they were about 45 min late for. I didn't think anything of it. This year I schedule an appt for 5p.m. because I work until 4 p.m. They have me confirm my appt for 5p.m. (picture below) They then reschedule my appt for 4:20 p.m. without letting me know. I get a text from the office the day of my sons appt (attached) saying see you at 4:20 p.m. I call the office confirming my appt was for 5. They tell me no, that it some how got changed. That they already have someone scheduled for 5. I said, yes my son.... Anyway.... They tried to book me a little to early. Appts are made because that is the time you are able to be there. The audacity to argue though. Why couldn't they just be honest and say we had a family member that needed that time slot so we cancelled your appt. On to the next.. read more

10/10 recommend! I noticed my eye site was getting bad and my dad referred me to this optometry because they treat him very well. Let me just say, they do not disappoint.

Truly a Gem! everything about La mirada optometry is fantastic i went on a monday first time and loved the place so much from the staff to Dr. Chen she's so bubbly so much great information so we don't feel like we just get glasses and not have understanding of why.

My glasses came in by friday super fast was surprised ! read more

The whole staff at La Mirada Optometry was incredibly helpful. The doctor answered all my questions and Lucy was there to help me choose a great pair of glasses. This is definitely the best optometrist I have been to. read more

I've been looking for a good optometrist and I finally found them!! Front desk greeted me right away as I walked in something that really never happens in other optometry. Doctor Chen explained everything to me about my eyes again something that my former optometrist never explained to me. I am very satisfied with their work and attention to patients. I highly recommend this place. Thank you everyone for being very nice!! read more

Great and friendly staff, I have been needing glasses for a while now. I called and was able to come in as a walk in, came in to get an eye exam and grab some new glasses. The staff and Dr. made me feel welcomed and safe during this Covid time. I will definitely be back for all my eye care needs . read more

This place is highly recommended. Myself and my kids all were seen on a same day appointment which was so convenient. Their prices are great as well! The staff (Lucy, Erika) and the Dr. were so helpful and cheerful and got us taken care of in a very efficient and positive manner. We also loved the selection of glasses that were available. We will definitely be back! read more

I have been to many optometries in the past but this one by far has been my favorite. I recently went for a way long overdue due checkup and when I called I was able to get and appointment pretty quick. Showed up to my appointment and the staff greeted me. I was not aware that Dr. Byrne had retired and that I was going to be seen by Dr. Chen. Dr. Chen was so friendly and super helpful. The staff was very helpful. Erica helped me with my paperwork and was so informative. I am so happy that this place is still running. read more

Wow- class act operation. These people have all the state of the art eye vision care gadgets. There selection of frames, lens and style are by far greater then any place I have been to for eye care. I have been there on several occasions , and have always been greeted with kindness and smiles. Clara and Erika are the best caretakers I've met, they are always ready to help you with any recommendations, help mend or repair my corrected lens if needed. They even sent out a pair of Versace sunglasses to have one lens replaced for me so I didn't have to buy a new pair at $475.00, repaired and cleaned for $50.00 Please give Michael L Byrne , O.D. and his staff a try, they proved to me that " the grass is greener on the other side". read more

Such an amazing optometry office! I spoke to Lucy and she was able to fit me into the schedule last min. She was so helpful and friendly over the phone. Once I got to the office the entire staff was amazing, friendly, and efficient. I can't recommend this office enough. Thank you again for the amazing experience! read more

Not sure why they have received not great reviews, this was my second time coming here and both times have been good experiences. I called last week to make an appointment for my eye exam, my call was answered quickly and the lady who scheduled my appointment was very helpful and friendly. My appointment was for 10:30, I arrived about 10:25. I was greeted by both ladies working, both who were friendly. I was brought back right away in the first room and that series of test was quick. After I was taken to the second room and was told the Dr. would be with me shortly. I waited maybe 2 mins before the Dr. arrived. He was just as friendly as the last time, the eye exam went quickly. From walking in to walking out I was there a total of 20 mins. I highly recommend La Mirada Optimetry, I think everyone who works there is friendly and welcoming. As for the prices of their glasses I cannot say as I do not need glasses. read more

My experience here has been so good. Every encounter is smooth and I leave happier than I walked in. Everyone is so sweet, welcoming, and accommodating. My daughter was treated with so much care, making her laugh and feel comfortable. That's a huge plus for any parent - our children being shown respect and attention. Definitely 5 star worthy. Thank you so much girls! I'm happy I ended up coming here. read more

Highly recommend! The staff was able to see me earlier then my appointment time when I called. As soon as I arrived they were super friendly, and walked me through entire process. The doctor is amazing and extremely friendly and informative. The pricing is affordable and they even offered rebates! Overall quick and seamless experience, I've been using glasses for years and this is the best experience I have ever had. read more

I actually had a an amazing experience! This was the first time I had ever been to an eye dr before and the entire staff made me feel so comfortable ! I felt like I had been going there for years! Erica and Clara were so friendly and down to earth And the Dr was so friendly and personable ! Everyone in the office was very knowledgeable! Thank you for making my first eye appointment a great experience!!! read more

Amazing place i give it 5 stars Lucy was amazing and professional and caring when she says if u want picture of your eye says yes or else you'll come back asking for it lol Érica was amazing also both very funny people #mimor read more

Needed an optometrist to get a new prescription and this was right by my house on the way home... Now, as a business owner I may be more sensitive to customer service than the average patron, so I was pretty turned off from the get go. Walked in, three ladies slouching behind the reception. Two look up and appear too lazy to toss me a greeting. The third realized someone should probably say something so she gives me a "Can I help you" with a -- what the hell do you want?-- scowl... ummm need an exam? Very unwelcoming and I felt like walking out right then and there because who wants to give people like this your money? So I ask about the prices and get answers with no eye contact and the look of "Ummm you're still asking questions"...wtf? I don't know who the doctor is but you might want to check your help buddy. Who knows how much business you lose over the phone or in person because these slobs can't put a smile on or do their job and greet. These ladies look like they have nothing better to offer humanity so they sit behind a desk and just browse the internet, not to be disturbed. Also, I agree with the other review THEY ARE MORE EXPENSIVE THAN LENS CRAFTERS! lol I was like, you have horrible customer service and now you want me to pay you THAT? Where's Gordon Ramsay when you need him "PISS OFF!" BOTTOM LINE: If you don't mind shitty service, go for it. I can't speak for the doc...the other review did so read hers. I'll take my business elsewhere. read more

I'm sad I can't go back to my old provider. I loved the optometrist I found last year, but his office doesn't take my insurance anymore. :( I found La Mirada Optometry and thought I'd give it a shot since it was close to home. Overall, I think Dr. Byrne is an ok optometrist. He is a nice gentlemen and with an easy going attitude. I wish he would communicate more about what he was doing during my eye exam and also what the results were. Rather then him telling me first, I had to ask questions about the health of my eyes and whether my vision had gotten worst at the end of the exam. The reason for the 2 star review? I'm pretty sure I got ripped off when I got my contact prescription refilled. So one of the staff members was calculating the costs of the contacts with my insurance. For a 6 month supply, I basically don't have to pay anything (my insurance covers $130 and then 15% of the amount that is left over). For a year supply it calculates to a total of $150. In my head, I'm thinking "whoa, this is a bit pricier then what I paid last year at my other optometrist." But since she doesn't show me how she came up with that number or a list price of the contacts, I give her the benefit of the doubt. After I paid, I ask her how much the contacts were. She says that the contacts are $70 a box. I need 4 boxes for a year supply so it was $280 w/o my insurance. I do the calculations and realize she hasn't taken off the 15% off the $150. I call the office back to confirm the price again because by then I'm already home and the lady tells me she made a mistake. The contacts were ACTUALLY $80 dollars a box and I was actually suppose to pay more. But she'll let it slide because I already paid. RIP OFF. Is she trying to save face because she already charged me and couldn't refund the difference? Is she trying to make me feel like I actually saved money? Even if the contacts were $80 a box, why would I even go back when I can go to another provider that sells them cheaper. I only paid $110 for a year supply last year. Its even cheaper if I bought it online (and for reference, yes, I did my research. My contacts do not cost $80 per box). I couldn't dispute the price, because I never asked to see the list price of the contacts they were selling. I should have been more aware. I felt like she was arbitrarily throwing out numbers. TIP: Ask to see the list of prices for contacts so you can verify the amount. Also, have the staff write down the calculations of the price you are going to pay and have them walk you through, step by step. Needless to say, I won't be going back. read more

I give this place 4 stars for the Dr. If it wasn't for him I would not come back. Dr Byrne is one of the best optometrist that I've ever had. The staff sucks. I take that back their is one person who always has an attitude. Look if you are having a bad day I should not see it all over your face. You are representing this office so a smile would be nice. If you haven't been to this place then you should definitely pay Dr Byrne a visit read more

Got a call 2 hours before my appointment to cancel it because of an "emergency". Yeah I have one too! My husband can't see because his glasses broke! I'll just go ahead and make an appointment somewhere else. Thanks. read more

We've been looking for a new Optometrist and we found this diamond in the rough.... From the moment we walked in we instantaneously adored Erica. She was professional, knowledgeable, and HILARIOUS!!! Setting up an appointment was easy, all four of our prescription glasses were available in less than a week, and the staff was amazingly friendly. You definitely won't be disappointed choosing this facility to care for all your optometrical needs. read more

Worst place I've ever been too, it's been 8 weeks and my safety prescription glasses are still not ready, they gave me this bullshit excuse that the fax machine was broken down so they're orders weren't going thru read more

I have been coming here since I was a little girl. The ladies are at the front desk are friendly and happy to help. I have since moved from La Mirada and I am willing to drive go see them. read more

our first visit. we love the doctor and the ladies were very helpful and very nice. office was clean. this is our place from now on.

La mirada Optometry is great! They were able to get me in for a same week appointment and the doctor ( Dr Chen) took her time with my exam and Lucy and Ericka in the office are great!!! Definitely come see them!! read more

Great place to go too ! I've been coming here since I was Little . Lucy was such a great help and has such awesome customer service ! We will definitely continue coming here . read more

Friendly staff and good frame options to chose from. Support the smaller stores please.

The optometrist here was rude, unprofessional, and bad at his job. I made an appointment that he came in 20 minutes late for and I had to return my original glasses because he did not measure the distance between my pupils correctly. The staff was warm and welcoming but I wouldn't wish him on my worst enemies. read more

Every time I have visited La Mirada Optometry they have been very courteous and professional. I can't say enough great things about Dr. Byrne. He is a very kind person who always explains everything I ask him about. I much prefer going to a local doctor than the franchise places that don't seem to really care about me. Here, I am a person, a patient they care about. Thank you!!! read more

This is the worst optometrist I've ever been too. Don't even waste your time or money here . It's been 2 weeks and I still haven't received my glasses back after they told me it would only take 5-7 days to get my new lenses . I had to call them & they said oh they just got in today.. I don't understand why they wouldn't even call me to let me know . They said my lenses got damage while being made .. and I had to wait an additional 7 days . I guess they just expect me to be blind for an extra week . This place is a piece of Sh*t and the employees are rude ! I wish they had an option for zero stars . read more

I was looking for an optometrist and a friend recommended La Mirada Optometry, So I scheduled an appointment and decided to check it out... I got there, was acknowledged and Greeted by the staff when I walked in ( which is a plus cuz not many places do) and you know signed and did the usual when you're a new patient at a Dr's office... Got pretested, saw the Dr which I have to say was very thourough, Pleased with my exam. I was handed over to the optician, I explained what I was looking for, sge showed me what selection they had of frames and pointrd to what I had in mind. Optician was very knowledgeable in answering my questions and broke everything down in regards to pricing and what my ins. Covers...I loved that she was there giving me opinions and being honest and not just walking away ...so my experience here was very pleasant, even joked around some, the staff is very outgoing I would definitely recommend and be coming here again :D read more

I love the girls here! Very helpful and always so down to earth. They want to make sure you leave happy and will spend the time to let you figure out what frames work best for you with many options. read more
