    After getting a great LASIK done over 15 years ago, I wasn't very diligent about getting my annual and this year, I noticed I couldn't read the tiny letters far away sometimes, nothing alarming, but there was a difference. So went to make my appointment and found my last optometrist had closed, not sure when. So now it's COVID and need a new doctor, did a search online and found a few where you can make online appointments. The first place wasn't a true online appointment application, it was one of those send me an email with some options, that's annoying so I moved on to the next, that one had a wait period like a month out, so this was actually my third try and the reason why I didn't try it first was because it's in the mall, and I just assumed it would be packed during the holidays. Anyway, made the online appointment, it was super easy, and filled out all the questionnaires and everything online. I love getting everything done online before I get to an appointment! They had a message on the door to call a phone number so someone could come let you in, however, the staff saw me and greeted me from inside to let me know to they'll be right with me. Once inside, they took my temperature and asked me to wash my hands, then had me sit/wait. They sanitize everywhere anyone has been and made me feel safe. Bonus, they were all super friendly and nice and patient. I'm terrible with names but there was a guy up front, then a lady who helped you pick out glasses and the female optometrist. I must say this experience was enjoyable and for the pricing, they told me the guy made an Excel sheet which had formulas, which I love because I'm an analyst and love Excel lol. I think I tried on 6-7 pairs of glasses before finding "the one" and I just LOVE them!

    I have been a patient/client for several years. I drove over 40 miles one way just to meet with Dr. Paul who is very thorough during an eye exam. In fact, my vision has changed drastically in that last few months which was a concern of mine. I was worried and she explained what was going on, which put me at ease. I appreciated the extra precautions and measures they have taken to go above and beyond to adhere to the COVID-19 Pandemic. During the eyeglass fitting, I appreciated James's feedback and patience once I made my final selection of course the pair I selected were on back order. Jon, one of the managers stepped in and offered several solutions which I very much appreciated. If you want cleanliness and impeccable service for your next eye exam and eyewear this is the place to make your eye exam appointment. With kind regards, Judy Casillas

    Great store with nice selections of frames ! James and John were very accommodating and helpful trying to find us the perfect Frame ! Will come back again for sure

    THERE IS A NEW DOCTOR! And I think new ownership? lots of new faces. I don't know when Dr. Ciobanu took over this place, but she is so nice! She is very knowledgeable and friendly and she brings a great vibe to this office. The office is pretty nice and they have a unique selection of glasses. I don't think I've seen Chanel or a brand called Salt anywhere else. Located inside the mall, I would recommend!

From the moment we arrived, Dr. Truong treated my mother with the utmost respect, patience, and genuine care. She took the time to make sure my mother felt comfortable throughout the appointment and never rushed the process. It meant a lot to see a physician show that level of compassion and professionalism. Dr. Truong was also extremely thorough during the eye examination. She carefully evaluated my mother's vision and eye health and took the time to explain everything in a clear and helpful way. She provided a lot of valuable information that helped us better understand my mother's eye health and what to look out for moving forward. La Paz Optometric Center has been serving Southern California communities for decades and offers comprehensive eye care services, including detailed eye exams, advanced diagnostic testing, and a wide selection of eyewear. Their doctors use modern technology to detect and manage eye conditions early and help patients maintain healthy vision. (Optometric Centers in Southern, CA) Our visit confirmed exactly what their reputation suggests: a professional clinic with knowledgeable doctors who truly care about their patients. If you are looking for an eye doctor in the Mission Viejo area, I highly recommend La Paz Optometry and Dr. Mimi Truong.

After waiting over a month for my Metas, they arrived and rested right on my cheeks (which the sample pair didn't do). When I raised this concern, the technician dismissively told me they are "universal frames" and offered no help. It feels like the measurements taken by the optician didn't matter. Now I have to buy my own nose bridge inserts to prevent the glasses from causing acne and skin irritations. I want to continue seeing Dr. Grichine, but the lack of kindness and technical support from the staff makes it very difficult to return.
