The staff and doctors are always extremely friendly. The office is clean and neat. It's usually empty when I've had my appointments. The doctor gave me a good recommendation for laser eye surgery, which I've been considering. They have a lot of my favorite brands of glasses but not a good variety of styles. I feel like every year when I go in, I try on the same pairs of glasses by the different designers. They charge a $45 contact lens "fitting fee"- I've been wearing contacts for 20 years, nothing is changing, not even my prescription as of late, I'm not being fitted for anything. It's not extra work for anyone. And I've never heard of it costing that amount of money for updating a prescription. The office is hit or miss returning calls. Especially if they claim they're going to ask the doctor something. They're also not the place to go if you have a tight schedule and in a jam (last pair of contacts, one ripped, but stuck wearing- never met a doctor who would recommend wearing if glasses aren't an option, but this office doesn't care). I picked the office out of convenience in location to my house but there are so many others, more highly recommended for those in demanding career fields. read more

The staff and the doctor were very helpful they made me feel at home in like a valued customer. I'm really glad my husband recommended them. She was the best eye doctor that I've seen in the last 10 years. read more

Outstanding patient centered service, all the staff and Optometrists are extremely knowledgeable and they take major insurance carriers. This shop is tucked away in the Otay Ranch plaza where major anchors include Vons, In and Out Burger, Oggies, Bank of America, and Wells Fargo and carries a well versed selection of glasses. read more

Otay Ranch Eyeworks - Optometrists Near Me - Chula Vista, California

My family and I visited Otay Ranch Eyeworks last weekend and had the best encounter with Kylie! Kylie was a ROCKSTAR and gave each of us quality time while picking out glasses. She was very patient and took her time helping each of us find our perfect glasses. To my surprise she remembered purple is my favorite color and she had a purple eyeglass waiting for me when I picked up our glasses! A+++ customer service Kylie!!! read more

Great super friendly team, my entire family has visited the Otay Ranch Eyeworks and received nothing, but good service. Appointment setting was quick and easy and the wait time no more than 10mins which is reasonable for a busy office. Keep up the great work guys! read more

I appreciated the Doctor, but the customer service from the staff was not as great as sharp or Costco. I think moving on from this place is best. read more

The ladies here are awesome to work with and very helpful in choosing glasses. The glasses arrived within a week and my exam was really efficient and the dr explained each step of the process. read more

The staff especially Christine is very friendly, helpful and very accommodating. She has the can do attitude willing to tend to the needs of their customers.

I typically get my annual eye exams at Costco (since it was affordable for contact lens & eyeglass exam) but decided to go to Otay Ranch Eyeworks this time around. I rely on Yelp reviews and was a bit hesitant to come here, but went ahead and gave them a try since the accept my insurance. When I called 2 weeks before my appointment, the person I spoke to was friendly. I was able to get an appointment pretty quickly, which was awesome. I also made an appointment for my daughter, which the OTE was able to work both of our appointments in at the same time. Score! We did the basic eye tests and Dr. King was seeing us. She said my daughter's vision was 20/15.. which is better than the average person. I can already tell she was really honest. I've had my daughter's eyes checked in the past at another clinic and was told she needed reading glasses and wanted to prescribe something right away (at that time she was only 8). After the typical checked up on my vision (I'm blind as a bat and rely on contact lenses), the doctor asked a few questions about my contacts. I told her which brand of contacts I was wearing and she asked me if I wouldn't mind trying something new. I'm glad that she asked, because other doctors would continue to keep me on the same brand. She even advised that the new brand is less expensive and I could keep wearing the same ones for a month. She also explained the curvature of my eyes and that I probably would see much better with contacts on than glasses (although I still want glasses to wear at home). I liked the fact that she sent me home with a pair of new contacts with my new prescription to try on for a week. I will have a follow-up appointment next week and will provide an update from that appointment. But based on my recent visit, so far so good! read more

I will proceed with five stars simply because the receptionist was very polite and welcoming and the service was the quickest I have ever had at an eye appointment. This was my first eye appointment ever in San Diego as I have only been here a year and my prescription just expired. I had a tough time finding an eye doctor because I am very picky when it comes to cleanliness and an overall welcoming and bright environment. The pictures and reviews from others helped me make the decision to move forward and I am glad. I was in and out in less than an hour. This is crucial for me because I have a newborn. I will definitely be returning. read more

2 years ago we moved to the area and I was looking for a new optometrist. I wear both contacts and glasses. I found this company when I was driving through the area. The staff here are friendly and knowledgeable. I was able to make my first appointment easily and quickly. The optometrist on staff is wonderful. Since my initial appointment, I've also taken my two step-children and husband in for exams. Their service has also been a great experience. They also have a wonderful selection of eye glasses. Both my boys and husband purchased Oakley's. They look so great on them! Be sure to book your next appointment with Otay Ranch Eyeworks, you'll be glad you did! read more

I came here on a Saturday morning after finding that one the nosepieces on my glasses was missing a screw. I was seen immediately even though there were several customers waiting and being seen for their glasses. Angelica was just that, angelic! She helped replace the screw with no questions asked as if I was within their insurance network. Of course I was in from out of town and definitely not in their insurance network. My glasses were fixed and I was in and out of there in 10 minutes. Great experience! read more

Staff are very friendly especially Pauline. Lots of products to choose from and Pauline took time with me to find what frames I want.

If you want sound advice and practical tips, have Amanda or Giovani assist you. They've been helping me out for three years now. read more

For about 6 months my husbands eyes had been bloodshot and dry. We tried to ignore it, but it really started to get him some strange looks from people, so we decided it might be time to go to the eye doctor. Eyeworks was recommended to us because lets be real here, most of us don't know where to begin when it comes to trusting someone to poke us in the eye. First off, its super cute in there and not at all intimidating like a doctors office. I was immediately swayed because of all the designer stuff in there. If the doctors office had Chanel and Dior every time I walked in, I may be more inclined to make a visit. The reception girls are so adorable and sooo smart. I was so surprised when it was these girls that performed all of my husbands exams before going in to the doc. They are trained quite well and young little lads, so it was a comfortable experience for my hubs. We didn't wait more than 2-3 minutes after reception got him checked in and he was off to all the fun eye charts and tests. After we got in to the see the doctor and she continued with the more intense stuff, she recommend some eye drops for the redness & dryness and we thought we were done until she informed us that she noticed he needed a slight prescription. My husband wanted to cry, almost turning 30 was hard enough, now glasses?!. I think he looks cute with them, so BONUS for me! We had a super easy time with the reception girls trying on as many as he wanted and they never made us feel rushed or annoyed that he tried so many on. They were very descriptive and informative about his new lenses, his warranties, etc. which was great because neither of us wear glasses and all of this was new to us. We were able to use our medical insurance for everything which was awesome and my husband left with an adorable pair of Ray Bans. All in all, we had a good first experience. Since then, my husband has continued to use the eye drops the doctor recommended and he hasn't had anywhere near the issues he had before & the glasses are growing on him. Thanks Eyeworks for keeping my husband safe & looking good. :) read more

A very friendly place. They were very helpful and quick with my exam. Lots of choices to choose from on name brand frames.

Great experience from beginning to end! When I first went in I was greeted by a nice young man at the front desk who was able to set me and both the kids up for an appointment on the same day! Awesome!!! When we went back the the appointment again was greeted and then we saw the tech first who was super nice and friendly. She was really kind to both of my boys and explained what she was doing. We then saw the doctor again super nice made the kids feel really comfortable. she answered all my questions and took her time. I will recommend Eyeworks to all my friends for sure!!! Thank you Eyeworks for a great experience!!!! read more

Not the same place as it was 10 years ago. The girls are a little more abrupt in talking, prone to cutting you off. They promised to help find a pair of glasses , six months ago. Ordered the ones I wanted online. Sad to say this is no longer our family eyeglass store read more

I have been coming here for years and the experience is always great here. John provides great information and can answer all of your questions. Everyone here is extremely helpful. read more

This clean office has a very nice selection of frames in stock. The staff and doctor are helpful with selecting the right styles and explaining your insurance. It was easy to schedule an appointment and they got me in the next day. read more

Let's be honest: no one likes going to the eye doctor, especially when you have progressively blurry vision. But, the entire staff at Eyeworks are so friendly and inviting that I felt as if I was shopping at Nordstrom rather than going in for an appointment. A friend referred me to this location and I'm so thankful that she did. They have an impressive selection of designer collections that for a girl like me, who never has enough glasses/sunglasses, was like Princess Belle walking into a library. I was able to grab my now-favorite Chanel frames for much cheaper than I would at any department store (and believe me, I looked and compared). I was helped by the same associate from start to finish, which is always greatly appreciated for an indecisive shopper as myself. And the eye exam itself went by so quickly and easily that it was over (thankfully) by the time I realized it started. Overall, I was so pleased with my entire experience here. I'd say I'd go back soon, but they may think I'm weird for getting another eye exam so quickly. No one wants to be "that" person. Then again, Belle went to the library everyday...right? read more

Can book appointments online. Great doctor that explains everything if you have any questions. Staff is very friendly on helping you with find and purchase frames that go well with your face and what you are looking for. read more

I really did not want to leave one star, but this issue needs to be corrected. First off, I will say that I am a registered nurse so I understand what it is like to work in the medical field. It frustrates me when medical staff are unpleasant, snobby, and on top of that do not do their job right. I have been to both the National City and Eastlake locations, so I have experienced both services and I want to say National City location has by far much better service compared to this one. I am giving the front desk girls staff ONE star (none if I could), which is sad because I wish I could separately give the Dr. 5 stars. Both times I visited, the girls at the front presented an unfriendly and snobby atmosphere and did not offer help to even choose new glasses frames after my new prescription. This is a shame because the National City staff (I remember Marcela, excellent service with her) were always quick to help me choose nice frames as soon as the Dr. wrote a new prescription. Next, I have insurance that covers my glasses prescription. I clarified with the girls at the front that I was within the time frame for insurance coverage (one routine check up every year and had not used it yet); they said okay that I should have NO problems and my routine check up would be covered. I come back a week later for follow up and they inform me that I have a balance to pay, how my insurance DENIED the claim and that I would have to pay out of pocket. Confused, I told them that is weird because I never had this issue before, especially since I have been to the National City location several times and they were always able to process it correctly there with no problems (I never had to pay a deductible for routine eye check which is covered under my insurance!). I simply paid out of pocket, got my prescription, and left. I call my insurance to investigate why the claim was denied, and my insurance tells me that the code service was entered WRONG by eyeworks, as a point of service code instead of as a routine code, which is why it was denied. Now my insurance had to correct the routine check up in their system, since it IS in fact covered. Okay, I said, so how do I get my money back because I paid out of pocket already. Insurance tells me to get it back from eyeworks. As of today, I am waiting to get my money back from Otay Ranch Eyeworks... no new eye glass frames from here since they did not offer help for choosing new glasses.. money, time, effort all wasted on this, all because the staff did not do their job right. Only the Dr. was excellent. Beware of the services here from the front staff. read more

Great customer service! Assistant took her time to explain deals. They accepted my vision insurance and received a discount, rebate and store certificate. A happy customer here! read more

HORRIBLE! My husband ordered a pair of eyeglasses and was told that it would take 2 to 3 weeks....fast forward 4 weeks later and he is told that the eyeglasses are no longer being made, but that they were receiving more frames from the same line. He went to the store and there are only women's frames. He has tried to get a refund twice and told that only a manager could approve the refund and that she has not been in the store. Additionally, this store is really overpriced. I suggest going in to the store to physically try on the frames, buy them on Amazon and then go to Costco to get the lenses made. read more

Okay down to the meat of this review: 1. easy to make appointments 2. Dr was good 3. got my glasses in less than 5 days 4. got my contacts THE NEXT DAY! 5. if you're looking to make friends or life long companions, this is not the place. The customer service isn't super friendly up in your face let me be your best friend - which I like. I'm just here so I can see properly. We don't need to be FB friends. I LOVE the fact that I can get all my stuff quickly and there's no pressure tactics to up sell me to some crazy expensive frame. I'll keep coming here year after year. read more

I needed a contact prescription asap and Costco didn't have any openings I give them props for being able to see me right away on a Sunday, however I feel like they have you running around in circles. On Wednesday I went back for my trial pair and I believe I got a defective pair so they told me to call with my old prescription details to verify the next order. A week later I got no call back so I call them and they say they will have the doctor call me back. Another week later nobody calls me back and I ask what happened and they say the lab is taking long so they will order another pair and finally I was able to get my right contacts after 2 weeks. read more

Quick and easy eye exam. Excellent customer service from the staff. Received my glasses within a week in spite of being told to wait two weeks. Plenty of inventory to choose from but prices vary and seem to be in the high range, so be prepared to spend. read more

I would select zero stars but that is not an option. Doctors were great. Staff is terrible. I waited more than a month to get my glasses. I am actually still waiting! I am now filing a dispute with my credit card to get my money back. Of course I will have to pay out of pocket to go somewhere else for an exam, since I already used my insurance allowance on them. However I will also submit a report with my insurance, they should not be on the list of preferred vendors! Please go somewhere else and save yourself the trouble! read more

Came in looking for an eyeglass repair kit, Amanda gladly fixed my sunglasses for me for free. I was pleasantly surprised & I'm very grateful they offered this for free. Going to bring my son in for a vision check soon! Everybody was also smiling and friendly. Great environment. read more

First time here and loved the attention and service they provided. The dr. explained every step thoroughly. And at the time of choosing my frames, there was nice frames within my budget to choose from and they were very helpful. read more

The worst customer service ever I experience in my entire life, the employee was really rude and unprofessional. I call her earlier to let her know that I was going to be late, and ask her what's the latest that I can show up and she said 20 min and when we arrived 15 min she told me that I was late and I have to reschedule!!!!! Never coming back to this location!!! read more

First time In years since I've been to the optometrist and couldn't have chosen a better place to go. Super friendly staff and great selection. Will definitely go back for my next exam. read more

Beautiful office & very helpful & attentive staff. They were able to help me find beautiful frames for my oddly shaped face. The exam, ordering & pickup was very easy & efficient. My glasses and contacts arrived earlier than anticipated. I LOVE my new glasses and wear them more often than I ever used to before. Bonus that my insurance helped to cover some costs. read more

I'm new to San Diego and was looking for a Optometrist. Eye works is great got me an appointment quick and was able to accommodate me on my follow up appointment when I showed up a day early. Friendly staff, the service was great even had my hard to find contacts available. Great location I would definitely recommend them to anyone looking for an Optometrist. read more

This was first time coming this office, recommended from a co worker. From the moment I walked in, all smiles. Kylie showed me stellar customer service, truly appreciated all her help. I would definitely recommend this office to any and all friends and family. read more

The eye doctors here are so nice! The receptionists are always so friendly. I always have a good experience whenever I come here.

Arrived 30 minutes before my appointment- they saw me right away- staff very helpful and they are very knowledgeable. From making the appt up-to picking up my glasses, everyone was nice. This place is a one stop shop! I've been seeing them for the past 4 yrs. highly recommend this place for all your eyeworks. read more

Very fast and helpful! I went in to get a new prescription for contacts. Their online patient registration worked great because I was able to fill that out at home on my own time, and didn't need to show up early to fill out the same paperwork in person. I was able to call and schedule my appointments very easily. The staff was great & very helpful with explaining exactly what my insurance covered & didn't cover. And the doctor was great, and even explained some details about my prescription that I never knew about before. My trial contacts had to be special ordered & shipped, but they came sooner than expected...the next day. They were able to squeeze me in for a follow up appointment (to try the new trial contacts) within a few days of my first appointment. read more
