Glad I checked the Yelp followers' reviews before I visited this place. Dr. Hwang treats his patients with professionalism and his outstanding knowledge. You can tell that he loves his job very much. During the eye examination, he kept providing you with with endless knowledge and solution. Most importantly, he cares about his patients and would spend time to answer all of the questions, even finding a solution for you. Highly recommend Dr. Hwang. read more

Best Optometry, friendly receptionist and they open on the weekends! And I never have to wait when I come for my appointment.

The best eye doctor I have ever been to. He won't sell or charge you for the stuff you don't need. He will also educate you about your eyes. He will also let you make important decision like this one: If you want the sharpest vision(more than 20/20 vision), he will have you give more powerful lenses. Then, your body adapts to the new lenses, and you will have to keep upgrading your lenses every few years to keep your vision that way. But, by accepting a little less sharper vision(still 20/20 vision), your eyes will stabilize and you won't have to keep upgrading your lenses. It is a trade off I am willing to take. Of course, people like pilots will need sharper vision. But, most don't. My previous eye doctor would just give me highest lenses and I had to keep going back every few years. My total out of pocket pay is about $70 after insurance for eye exams and new pair of glasses (frame + lenses). In my previous optometries, I paid like $150+ or more. I would recommend him to everyone. read more

Not knowing what to expect, I chose to come here because of the awesome reviews and I'm glad I did. The Optometrist, Dr. Hwang is great! He's detailed and experienced in what he does and made me feel comfortable right away. I didn't even know my eyeglasses were not the correct vision and that would explain the headaches I've gotten. After a visit with him I walked away with a much clearer perspective, literally! Also, he gave me a free pack of contact lenses which is very accommodating. Didn't try to up-sell me like some places. It's conveniently located near where I live. Pleasant visit, best place for your eyes!! read more

I first visited Dr. Hwang about a year ago to deal with a persistent eye infection and since then, my experience here at the love optometry has been nothing but positive. I have been wearing glasses since I was a little kid and have visited many different optometry for my glasses and contact needs. I can say with great certainty that Dr. Hwang is by far the most helpful and detail oriented optometrist I have ever visited. He will not only help you take care of whatever eye issue that needs to be dealt with, but he will also tell you about all the ways to prevent such problems in the future. I have also ordered my new contact lenses here and a new pair of glasses as well. The prices were very fair and I will be doing all of my orders from here for the future. The staff members are very friendly and helpful as well and I definitely left as a happy customer just like all of my other visits. read more

Very glad that I checked Yelp before going to just any eye doctor. The receptionist was great, the doctor, David, was super!! He was extremely informative and very helpful on my questions. I'm surprised that there's not a long line for eye exams!!! Pricing was very reasonable and the service you get is exceptional! read more

Same day appointment.. on a Sunday! Wow, this place is amazing. Extremely friendly and knowledgeable staff. The most thorough eye exam I've ever had. I live in LA and will happily make the drive down for all of my vision needs going forward. read more

Dr Hwang is very responsible, very good and patient at explaining the situation! Would recommend to everyone....!!

I love Dr. Hwang! Before I started working full-time and making my own money, I vowed that I would find an eye doctor that I truly enjoy going to, since the ones my parents sent me to were all terrible and made the experience miserable (seriously, who likes getting air blown into their eyes?) I've seen Dr. Hwang twice already and the location of his practice is very conveniently located for me off of Yale and Trabuco. His office always smells great, feels clean, and I can honestly say I look forward to going to going to my eye appointments every year now. In the past, I've only had my eye vision increased higher without doctors really telling me how to prevent and help my eyesight get better. From the start, Dr. Hwang has focused on therapy and helping my eyes get better, rather than just focusing on immediate relief. He is an excellent doctor who will do his best to accommodate you and has a great, friendly, and very helpful staff. I would recommend anyone to go see him. Just like the previous reviewer before me, he will also perform other necessary tests to make sure you are getting the right exams you need for your help. If I could, I would seriously give him 10 stars. read more

I've worn glasses for over 20 years and has had many optometrists. None of them was as good as Dr. Hwang. He is very knowledgeable and up to date on the new technology. He's enthusiastic and passionate about his practice and cares for his patients. During his comprehensive eye exam, he also explains what he's doing. I appreciate his professionalism, excellent patient care, and very reasonable prices. Being in the medical profession myself, I would definitely refer any of my patients and family members to Dr. Hwang. read more

I am an oral & maxillofacial surgeon. Glasses are critical for me to see well in order to operate. I have gone to many optometrists but I wasn't happy until I saw Dr. David Hwang. He did a very thorough examination, made a right diagnosis and fixed the problem perfectly. Dr. David Hwang is very confident and professional. He is the best optometrist I have seen and I highly recommend Dr. Hwang to all my professional friends and family whoever need glasses. read more

dr david explains it well. i would recommend him if you want your vision to be awesome!

Highly recommend to others. Dr. Hwang completed my eye exam very quickly and gave me a very clear explanation of the relevant info. His staff was also very nice and pleasant to interact with. This is my go to optometrist. read more

The doctor is very nice. I called him one day and said I needed contacts ASAP because I was all out. He told me to come on by later that day and he would help me out. He gave me a couple pairs free of charge until I could come back for an appointment. I feel like my mediocre insurance goes a long way here. He doesn't over bill me, and that is not the case with most doctors! The office is cute and clean, can't really ask for much more. read more

Dr. Hwang was friendly, and took the time to explain what he was doing. Educated me on the health of my eyes and that I was predisposed to retinal detachment etc. Gave me options for my lenses and was very affordable (I don't have insurance right now). Overall an enjoyable hour spent with Dr. Hwang. read more

This is my first yelp review and I have to say Dr. Hwang is the best optometrist I've ever met. He's really patient on explaining the professional knowledge to his patients and teach us how to maintain good sights. The power of my glasses dropped dramatically after I went there for almost two years. That's definitely something I wasn't expecting at all when I first came in. The lady at front desk is also very nice and friendly. Reasonable price, friendly staff, and professional doctor,highly recommended! read more

I came here after seeing the great reviews and was given a wealth of information, suggestions, and opinions on my eyes. All my questions wereanswered thoroughly and honestly leaving me to make the ultimate decisions. I was also given trial contacts for an entire month, so that was nice. Highly recommended. read more

The most kind, patient, and informative optometrist I have been to yet. I definitely recommend him!

I have a 9 year old boy and he has been having red eyes for couple years. We have been to so many doctors but nothing worked. Dr Hwang right away found out the reason after checking him for 5 mins.. how amazing. He taught my kid how to prevent it happened. I felt so released knowing the real reason and he is so nice talking to my boy. My son loves him. I am so happy to find someone good in Irvine!! I am planning to go back with my husband too. read more

Love Optometry Clinic has a warm and comfortable atmosphere. Dr. Hwang is the best professional who really takes good care of my red eye and has patience to explain details. Dr. Hwang provides great service and he is willing to answer my questions with his abundant knowledge and experience. What I want to say is come to make an appointment with Dr. Hwang, you will experience an awesome treatment of eye care. read more

Dr. H is straightforward and definitely one of a kind. I'm so glad he's open on Sunday's too a life saver !

Friendly, helpful and honest. My prescription was reduced in strength, as a result, I have less headaches! Thanks Doc! My frames have a designer brand look at a very affordable price. read more

I liked this place. There wasn't a long wait and the prices for the frames were good. He spent longer with me than other doctors. He also was the only doctor to explain or even notice that i had a sensitivity to light. read more

First, I would like to thank YELP for allowing all of us to write a review on our "customer service" experiences. This is a great help in figuring out who and where we select in getting the best service possible. I made an appointment with Dr. Hwang all because of the positive experiences indicated here on Yelp. Wow! My experience with this eye doctor was outstanding! Comparing him to every optometrist/ophthalmologist I have dealt with (over 15+/since 1965), he is, by far, the best doctor ever! He is friendly, caring, helpful, professional, thorough and very knowledgeable/intelligent. I am most impressed by his compassion. He "runs circles around" many optometrists, especially the ones in the Irvine area. My son feels the same way about Dr. Hwang. I would like to take this moment to thank Dr. Hwang. I just hope his level of service doesn't falter due to too many new patients after reading more positive Yelp ratings! (grin) In closing, I wish all of you (reading this) the best of experience no matter who you choose for your eye doctor! Your eyes are very important, so choose wisely! Oh, also the young lady at the front desk, is soooo pleasant and super nice!!! read more
