My first visit was a really good experience overall. The eye exam, glasses fitting, and contact…read morelens fitting all felt smooth and thorough. The doctor is professional, easy to talk to, and has a very relaxed, chill demeanor that made the appointment comfortable. I was also recommended Optase Hylo Relief dry eye drops and they've been great. They keep my eyes lubricated with contacts and feel noticeably better than other brands I've tried. David, the office manager, is very straightforward, sometimes blunt, but always clear and helpful. There was a miscommunication with my contact lenses that left me unable to receive them for about two to three months. Luckily I had enough supply to get by. David was instrumental in resolving the issue, which stemmed from my vision benefits. He followed up diligently and handled everything with professionalism and persistence. The matter ultimately resolved with my insurance, and I was impressed by his level of service throughout. Overall, a very positive experience with attentive care and strong follow through when an issue came up. I will definitely be back!

Dr Choi is amazing. He is able to handle the whole family and his equipment is more high-tech than…read moreour previous optometrist office. He is always attentive to eye health and has greatly helped us with our youngest's sight issues. Not only is Dr Choi great but so is his office staff. We never have to wait more than 10 minutes, it's a well oiled machine. David is incredibly efficient and knowledgeable. Their selection of frames is vast and they do turn around lens in store-- which is so convenient. Their pricing is on par and they work with insurance. We truly can't recommend this office more! If you're thinking about going, just book the appointment, you won't be sorry.

Dr. Kim has been extremely helpful to me over the years. I've had reoccurring corneal ulcers that…read morehave been a pain and she was the first doctor I went to and the only one that I've continually returned to. I know a lot of people on here are complaining about their wait time, but I've seen her well over 10 times and I've never waited that long when I had an appointment scheduled. No more than 20 minutes, which is pretty standard for any doctor's office. I also don't use my insurance when I go to her.. wont go in to detail about why, but for paying out of pocket, I find her pretty reasonable. I called another ophthalmologist that told me that an out of pocket consultation would be $200! Dr. Kim's initial consultation was $90. The only complaint I really have is that there have been a few instances when I showed up and they told me that they had me down for a cancelled appointment when I never cancelled or I was called after I had cancelled an appointment telling me that I didn't cancel my appointment. That happened about three times and I found it a bit irritating, but she still saw me even when they had me down for the cancelled appointment. Besides that, I really do like her as a doctor and highly recommend her.

DO NOT COME HERE!!!! Please save yourself the trouble and stay far away from here. I went at the…read moreend of December to use my insurance benefits and it was the worst experience ever. I was promised my son's contacts would be in about 2 weeks ago and they never came in. I was told they were reordered but again they never came in. When I was offered an extra 3 months for the trouble I obliged and was told the office was open until 6 I went at around 5:45 on my way back from work and guess what they were closed. I called them today asking for a refund once again and was told I could only be refunded the contacts so of the $155 I paid only $50 was refunded. Now I have to wait for them to reverse the claim to be able to use my benefits again. I wish I had read the reviews before coming here. I hope this reached someone before making the same mistake I did.

I had been considering LASIK for a while after having problems with contact lenses. I asked my…read moreoptometrist about LASIK and was referred to NVISION. Scheduling a free consultation online was super easy, and I was helped by a wonderful person, Melinda. She was charismatic, informative, and made me feel so comfortable about what I thought could be a nerve-wracking experience. I knew I wanted Dr. Tooma to perform my surgery since my aunt had her LASIK done with him 28 years ago and has been very happy with her results. Melinda made it easy to schedule my surgery at the Newport Beach NVISION center. The day of surgery was super easygoing...from check-in, my final eye exam and scans, to my 6-minute surgery on both eyes! Everyone at both the Fullerton and Newport Beach centers was so welcoming and comforting. I'm super happy with my results and would definitely recommend NVISION to anyone considering LASIK!

I went for my free consultation and same day lasik surgery (if I was approved to be a good…read morecandidate). My experience overall was great. Staff was all friendly and explained everything very well. They knew what they were talking about. They were thorough with everything. The only reason why I didn't give a 5 start was the wait time. My appointment was at 2 .. it took about 30 minutes of waiting after I filled out my paperwork to get called in for all the test. After that there was a wait to get the actual consultation. Then after that I waited to see dr lee. He was very professional, confident in his work and honest which I appreciated. I was a good candidate so he approved me for lasik surgery. Then still waited around for my turn to get the actual procedure. Finally, around 6 pm I got my lasik procedure. It was a bit nerve wrecking but it was quick... the time I went into the operating room til I got out, it must have been less than 10 minutes. Here's how it went: Lay down. Dr. Lee tapes down your forehead down with tape... I almost laughed because it was so unexpected. Then he puts drops to numb your eyeballs. Waited a few seconds for it work in full effect. Then he puts this clamp on your eye to hold your eye lids open. The nurse puts more eye drops to prevent your eye from drying. I don't know if it was because my eyes are small but the clamp hurt as he winding it open. It stretched open your eyes really wide. I just kept starring at the red light in front. Then Dr. Lee said that this is the part where I'll feel a little bit of pressure. A round black thing covers your eyes and I think that was the laser machine that cut your cornea. That lasted probably for like 3 seconds. Then once the cornea was lifted, everything went SUPER blurry. My eye sight was already really bad (-8) but it was even more blurry. But I could still see the red light. Then, the actual laser part. He warned me that it will smell like something is burning and I will hear a clicking sound. That's the laser. So he zaps it for about 30 or 40 seconds and the whole time I just kept on looking at the red light not trying to move my eye ball. Then he cleaned the surface with more drops.... and then put the cornea back... adjusted the cornea making sure it's on properly by wiping it down... more drops... On to the next eye. It only lasted a few minutes for each but knowing what to expect on my second it was a little more scary for me...but knew that it would be done quickly. However, my second eye hurt more when he clamped it open! I think that pain distracted me of feeling any other anxiety or fear of the procedure. I was so relieved when he removed the clamp. I don't think other people really felt that uncomfortable with the clamp but it was pretty uncomfortable for me, more so on my left eye. Maybe it is because my eyes are small. LOL The recovery is another story. They give you instructions on how to take care of your eye following the procedure. I'm sure each doctor's office is a little different. Here were some of the steps I remember I had to do. First week, there are 2 drops you have to put in your eye every 4 hours - antibiotics and steroids. And they give you vitamins to help for your eyes. Then week 2, you just keep using one drop twice a week. Apply eye drop as needed when it feels dry. You can't get water in your eye for the first 24 hours so shower before your appointment. You can't do eye make up for the first month or apply eye cream the first week. You can't rub your eyes for 3 months. You can't swim either of course for 3 months. I was happy to go home in the evening and just sleep. They give you some pills afterwards. I think one is an anti-anxiety pill and 2 others.... I forget but I remember feeling really drowsy afterwards. You can't drive home after the procedure so you need to have a ride ready. I'm glad mine was in the evening so I just went home and slept. You have to sleep with goggles they give you to prevent yourself from rubbing your eyes or sleeping on your face. It was good I had them on because my toddler son threw a ball at me the next day. I kept them on during the day while I was at home because I know I'm clumsy and with young kids, you never know when they'll poke your eye. I went back for my 1 day follow up appoint. I drove myself during the day. It was great. My eye sight wasn't 20/20 right away but good enough to see and rive without glasses or anything! HALLELUJAH! Night time driving is a bit different. All the lights are very bright and halo-y. They said not to drive at night until you feel comfortable. It's been about 2 months since my procedure. I got it in January. For my 1 month follow up, I was seeing 20/20. Overall. I LOVE IT! my life has changed. I am so happy with the results. AND It was very affordable!!!!! Don't even both shopping around. You probably won't find a better deal. :)

I would give zero stars if I could. The "surgeon" here (Dr. Joseph Lee) cares more about money than…read morethe actual patient. After several consults, we settled on a price that was reasonable for the surgery. All the sudden on the final consult before scheduling the surgery, the surgeon complains that the price is too low for the amount of work he needs to do on my eye and that he would have to make incisions on my eyelids (causes scarring and is extremely painful). He has never made that comment before until now. Apparently it will make the work "easier" for him for how much it will cost and that other lasik doctors would do the same. I went and consulted with two other surgeons (most likely more reputable than him) and mentioned that. None of them said they would need to do that for my eye. Dr. Lee here is a liar! He acts like he is the only eye surgeon who performs lasik around here and criticizes others. He states he does not care about money but has the nerve to tell me that the amount he would be getting from me is all the sudden too cheap. He also says he is a humble guy but during every single consult he spends the entire time talking about himself. This guy even admitted he "experiments" without our consent. He told me the story of how he placed alcohol in the eyes of one of his clients because she developed an infection. He said it's not fda approved but did it anyways. I don't know about you, but I personally don't want to be an experiment to anyone. Avoid this doctor at all costs. There are plenty of other lasik surgeons out there who do much better jobs and are honest.

Janine was extremely helpful throughout the process and took the time to answer my questions with no impression that I was wasting her time. The staff are very patient, knowledgeable, and friendly.

There is a decent selection of frames at this store. I just received my glasses and the prescription is as expected. I'm not sure which specific type of lenses they use, but they feel quality and so far I'm more than happy with my purchase. Parking is right by the building and I had no issues in the late afternoon. I appreciate that they are open until 7PM a couple days a week. Sure it's a bit more expensive than Costco or online stores but I feel like the extra bit is worth it considering the services received.

Do you know how rare it is for somebody to voluntarily write a positive review without being…read moreprompted or asked to do so? My family and I have been seeing Dr. Chao and his team for many years at both the Irvine and Fullerton locations - they are simply outstanding. In the past, we've done cataract surgery (for my dad), routine checkups, and most recently for myself, PRK surgery. In every instance, we've been absolutely impressed with Dr. Chao's team of professional, knowledgeable, and kind staff members. In 9/2020, I went to get a consultation about Lasik vs. PRK surgery with Dr. Chao. He patiently walked me through the relative advantages of each procedure and which was the right one for me. My PRK procedure (10/2020) was incredibly smooth; some of my friends had less than ideal experiences with other practitioners, but I'm happy to report my procedure and recovery process went perfectly. Dr. Chao and his team did an amazing job of caring for me, carefully explaining what I should expect, and always making me feel like I was being treated with the highest level of expertise. I just came in for my three-month follow-up and could not be happier I decided to work with Dr. Chao. It's rare to find such a wonderful team of medical professionals. I genuinely enjoy coming in to see Dr. Chao! My advice is to listen to the onslaught of five-star reviews (especially those from people who actually work in healthcare) and book an appointment with Dr. Chao's office. Don't go anywhere else - this is the type of care we should get from every single doctor.
