No, Parkview Optometry, this is not the way we do business in the United States. No other business in the country attempts to charge its customers -- ESPECIALLY its new customers -- if they do not confirm by text message. What if my phone is off? What if I block all text messages from unknown phone numbers? Screw that. I'm out. read more

Parkview Optometry - Optometrists Near Me - Irvine, California

Everything about this office feels polished and small-town. My first time in, they knew my name and expected me. There was an admin issue with my insurance but they called me later in the day (after the appointment) to give me the scoop. The doc himself is knowledgeable as well as personable. Recommend coming here! read more

Our whole family see's Dr. Vo at Parkview Optometry and he is the best. He is thorough and explains things very clearly. He is great with my kids and makes their eye exams very calming. The office staff is also great and very patient with you when selecting glasses. I would highly recommend Parkview Optometry. read more

If I could give a million stars, I would. Dr Vo is truly the best doctor Ive ever had the pleasure of interacting with. He has such a kind, honest presence about him. He is EXTREMELY intelligent. I had a foreign object lodged in my eye and he was able to help me within seconds. He also uses stem cells to help regenerate new cells which is such an innovative technique he implements. The front desk girls are very nice and professional as well. read more

Absolutely loved my experience at Parkview Optometry! Dr. Vo is informative, kind and very patient. Getting new glasses is not the easiest process, especially when I have to try individual lenses and walk around to test them out so I'm very thankful for his patience and making the process a breeze. The front desk was also amazing! She offered to help me choose the perfect pair of glasses with ease. If I could give 10 stars I would! read more

Dr. Vo is an amazing doctor, and I would highly recommend him to others who are looking for a new eye doctor. He is kind, patient and really cares about each of his patients. He is also very intelligent, and brings the latest technologies and advancements to his patients. He understands that all of our body functions are related, so he brings a holistic view to medicine, rather than just evaluating the eyes on their own. Lastly, my son had a scratched cornea and needed emergency attention, and he dropped everything to stay open late and care for my son. I have been working with Dr Vo for almost 20 years, and I wouldn't go to anyone else. read more

Fabulously competent orthodontists, Dr. Vo and Dr. Huang at Parkview Optometry in Irvine are the professionals you would want for your vision care. Usually I see Dr. Vo, for whom I have already written a stellar review; but yesterday I was given Dr. Catherine Huang, who is also phenomenal. She received her education from UCSD and UC Berkeley so obviously she is very intelligent; but perhaps as important she knows the questions to ask, can interpret your perhaps sloppy responses to determine what you really meant to say, has a good command of all the diagnostic equipment and optical choices and knows which to suggest for "perfect" vision. She also has a delightful personality which lights up the room as she's doing her testing. read more

Had my first appointment with them today. Very professional. Clean office. Good customer service. :) I'm going to bring the rest of my family here. read more

Can't find the 6 star option so 5 will have to suffice. Having been a patient here for 8 years I've seen Both dr Vo and dr Huang, they are both wonderful + amazing as are the entire staff + rene . Cant recommend em enough ! read more

I've been coming to see Dr. Vo for about 8 years or so. He has recently taken over the business from Dr. Sarlitt and have been making several improvements to the place. The first thing that I noticed was that all of the equipment has been updated with new fancier gadgets. One new equipment that I liked was the retinal imaging device. He told me that with that machine, there would no longer be a need to dilate my pupils. Yea! His examinations continue to be very thorough and he really takes his time to answer all of your questions including personal non-eye related questions. So after all of these years, my annual eye exam has been more like having a friend exam my eyes. Needless to say, I will be coming here indefinitely. I would recommend that you come here if you're new to the area and looking for an optometrist. The office staff has remained the same throughout the years and they continue to be a friendly group of people. It has always been an pleasant experience to interact with them. Even though the office shares parking spaces with a few restaurants and a supermarket, there's usually parking spots available whenever I'm there. read more

Can't say enough good things about Dr. Huang! She is my new and favorite eye doctor! I haven't been to the optometrist in a few years after getting LASIK, and she provided me with a thorough and informative eye exam. The office has the latest technology and modern machines - there was one that was so convenient: it takes pictures of your retina, so you don't need to get your eyes dilated anymore. Dr. Huang was beyond knowledgeable, honest, and super sweet. Made me feel comfortable and she took her time to answer all of my questions. Highly recommend going here! read more

I can't speak highly enough of Dr. Vo and his team here! He is knowledgeable, thorough, and holistic in the way he treats. It's clear that he really cares about his patients, as seen by calling and checking up on me during a time of medical distress. The front desk associates are always caring, kind, and willing to work with you. This place makes you feel right at home. Thank you all. read more

I broke my glasses on a Saturday afternoon. When I stopped by their office, however, the door was locked. To my surprise, they opened it and asked if I needed help. YES, I said. They let me in, fixed my glasses and saved me money at the same time. Simple. Easy. Quick. I felt so good about their integrity, I had to book my annual eye appointment with them. The appointment with the Doctor was thorough and professional. He answered all of my questions (I had many because I enjoy knowing the scientific details and facts). I wasn't rushed and pushed out the door for the next patient. How refreshing! read more

They didn't receive 5 stars because I wasn't quite aware of my options. As a new patient, I got my eye exam for the first time. Dr. Warren was lovely but I didn't receive my prescription afterwards nor the option to buy my glasses elsewhere. I do love my new glasses but it irks me that I didn't have to chance to not buy from them, might've been a lot cheaper. read more

Look no further with Dr. Catherine Huang at Parkview Optometry! She is one of the best! Dr. Huang is caring, thorough, and very knowledgeable. She had the answers to all of my questions and really took care of me. The office is clean/modern and has all of the new equipment/machines. It was a great experience and I highly recommend! read more

Exceptionally clean and modern office! They disinfect all the eye glasses after customers try them on. I love that they have the latest technology so I don't have to get my eyes dilated anymore -it's so much more convenient and comfortable! Front desk and especially Dr. Bryant Vo are extremely caring, thorough, organized and kind. They were great with my daughter as well who can be a little challenging getting her eyes examined. Thank you Dr. Vo and team! read more

Parkview Optometry is the best. I never feel pressured to purchase something that we don't need. Dr. Warren is very patient and takes the time to answer all of your questions. You never feel rushed or like you are "just a number". I have only seen Dr. Warren, however, everyone in the office is very honest and kind so I imagine that the other doctors here are amazing as well. All of the costs associated with the exam and glasses/contacts are fully explained before you agree to the charges so that there are no surprises. I appreciate how up front and honest everyone in this office is. They are taking full COVID protocols so I feel comfortable brining my family to this office. My family and I trust everyone in this office as they treat us all like family and not just another patient. read more

I was looking for a new eye doctor and sought recommendations via Next Door. I settle on Dr. Vo at Parkview Optometry. I luck out. The whole office staff was friendly, courteous, and kind to me. I was impressed with their professionalism. Dr. Vo did a complete eye examination on me. Dr. Vo is more than competent in his field. He gave me excellent advice and answer all of my questions. I was extremely impressed with him. Being a first time patient, I was a little nervous, but became at ease as we proceeded through the examination. read more

My husband and I have been going to Parkview 7+ years. We've seen both Dr. Sarlitt & Dr. Vo. Both are awesome!! Every visit is like meeting up with an old friend, not a doctor's visit. Dr. Vo's style is very conversational and explains everything...in non condescending way. I needed contacts in a pinch and Dr. Vo came thru. The front office ladies are phenomenal. They remember my name and frame preferences. They also carry brands & frames that are very on trend. I wish I can give Parkview 6 or 7 stars. read more

I've been going to Parkview Optometry for over 20 years! Dr. Sarlitt assembled a great team of caring individuals. When Dr. Vo took the practice over, we loved his style too! Patient, personal, professional, and so knowledgeable. Couple that with an office staff who truly looks out for each client. They recently renovated with a beautiful, welcoming office. If you are looking for an excellent eye care office for the whole family, this is it. read more

I haven't had an eye exam in years, so I decided to finally check on the health of my eyes. The staff is super friendly and checked me in right away. Dr. Vo came in right away with no wait time. He ran standard tests, but also had the capability of a 3D imaging of my eyes, that also allowed a detailed check of the back of my eyes (which I was concerned about because of my time on the computer). He explained to me what the tests meant and I felt very comfortable to ask questions. Luckily, I got a healthy report! He also let me try on my prescription and take a spin outside which was very helpful. At check out, the staff gave me a price quote based on my benefits and tips on how to get the frames I want using my benefits. I definitely recommend Parkview, especially if you're newer to an optometrist! read more

I love this place! I have an spent a lot of time in optometry and ophthalmology offices due to a childhood injury, and this is by far the best office I've been to. Dr. Vo is extremely patient, kind, caring, and intelligent! I have a scleral lens and no matter how many times it needs to be adjusted, Dr. Vo is there to help without any issues. The facility is very clean and all staff members are very sweet! They always want to do what's best for you. I honestly recommend this office to everyone I know! If I ever move from Irvine, I would definitely make the trip back here no matter how far. Highly recommend!! read more

Phenomenal customer service! I normally don't write reviews but I was so happy with my visit here today, I just had to say something. I would highly recommend Dr.Bryant Vo to anyone. He is very knowledgeable, professional, welcoming, patient, caring, and a pretty cool guy!! I was very comfortable having him work on my eyes. Compared to all my past optometrists, he's definitely the best, for various reasons. I was very impressed with how much he knew, how thorough he was, and how passionate he was talking about it. I learned a lot about my eye health, way more in my first visit here, than any other optometrist visits elsewhere for the past decade! Dr. Bryant Vo REALLY went above and beyond to take care of me. I came here last minute, pretty uneasy and anxious, about an eye/contact lens accident/issue. Although he was busy, he still took me in, and squeezed in time for me. He really helped to ease me and made me feel A LOT better!-Both my anxiety and the irritation in my eye, whiling getting rid of the problem. I was in and out of there pretty quick, which I appreciated being a grad student. Very, very happy client! Thank you Dr. Vo! read more

You never get a second chance to make a first impression. Had a wonderful experience at Parkview Optometry and there is a reason why they have been in business for 20+ years. Staff was overly accommodating and Dr. Vo was extremely professional and thorough. I will be back and grateful they are close by for my family to see (no pun intended) when needed. Thank you for your professionalism and patient focused business! read more

I moved to Irvine recently and needed to find a new optometrist after a decade. So glad I found them! Jackie & Letty and front desk are very nice and helped me figure out my prescription. I had been using an outdated, not-good-for-my-eye shape contact lens brand for a long time and it started to scratch my cornea and I was having trouble looking at the computer at work and my eyes were getting strained. Dr. Sarlitt was really patient with me and went through at least 8 different contact brands that he let me test until we found the PERFECT contact lens brand for my eyes. I now see perfectly and my eyes don't get red or strained anymore! THANK YOU, PARKVIEW OPTOMETRY!! read more

Love my new specs Using them right now and I can see everything!!! Great service, love the text reminders and Dr. Vo takes all the time you need - there is no sense of being rushed read more

So, I've generally had good experiences here. Sarlitt is a good guy, very pleasant to talk to. But the sessions drag on quite awhile when they make you do this exam where you get blasted with air in your eyeball and then you have to click a stupid button everytime you see a light show up on a screen...it drags on quite a bit and I get the feeling this exam should be updated. Sarlitt's wife, Jackie, runs the reception desk. I kind of got the feeling she was pushy when she'd just hang over my shoulder waiting for me to pick out glasses. She overstepped her boundaries when there was a scheduling mix-up on my behalf, for the 1st appointment of the day after a holiday (my mother made the appointment for me). Jackie called me up the morning after I left a message the night before (yes it was a holiday) saying I wouldn't be able to make it because I didn't have anyone to watch my daughter. After trying to bully me into showing up anyways, she told she wouldn't be able to reschedule me. I tried to apologize for the inconvenience because she seemed truly distraught over one appointment, but then she cut me off and wouldnt even let me finish! I've been going to Sarlitt for years. This was totally unprofessional on her behalf. If being a receptionist is her life, she should know that mix-ups happen. It's just not a good idea to have a stingy wife as a receptionist. She's obviously going to get bent out of shape when she loses pocket change. One star for berating a patient. Don't risk it. Go somewhere else. There's a nice optometry by Albertson's on Campus that I've heard good things about. read more

I am only driven to write reviews when I have a positive review to write, and I have written very few, so this place is special. I had a wonderful experience because of the owner Dr. Sarlitt. The guy is a wonderful person whose only fault was being overly helpful, friendly, engaging, and helping me to see more clearly. It had become harder and harder for me to see the text on my computer screen, but I just didn't have the time to make an appointment and go to the doctors office. Serendipitously, I was visiting my family in Irvine, and decided to pick up some groceries at the neighborhood Ralph's, when boom... I stumbled into my Pal Dr. Sarlitt's office. 30 minutes later I was strolling around town in some pretty posh spectacles, able to read anything at an exceptionally fair price. I don't know how often one needs new glasses, but Dr. S has my business now until I'm blind. Thank you for the wonderful experience as I transition into my 30's. read more

Fantastic place and would recommend 10/10! Every visit is so pleasant and Dr. Vo is incredibly friendly and really builds a relationship with each patient. He is honest and explains everything in detail, which I greatly appreciate. I am so glad I found Parkview Optometry! read more

I have an overarching policy of not doing business with friends or family however I made an exception about ten years ago with Richard Sarlitt OD and it has turned out to be one of my better decisions. The quality of Doctor Sarlitt's work is beyond reproach. When I somehow tore my retina a few years ago he was right there to guide me. He not only referred me to a specialist he made sure I got to see that doctor late on a Friday evening. I have complete confidence in his work and he is most professional. I did see Doctor Vo once before and he too impressed me with his skill and knowledge. The office staff is always friendly and helpful. To be honest I only purchase the glasses Jackie tells me to buy. It is like having my own personal shopper. Marv Mission Viejo, Ca. read more

Most OUTSTANDING eye exam ever! Dr. Vo is extremely cordial yet thorough during the exam. The office staff is very welcoming and pleasant. Highly recommend to anyone who is looking for frames or contacts! I would have given 5 stars but I had to get my contacts mailed to me because their was a mix up when I went down to pick them up. read more

You will not find anyone who cares more about your vision than Dr. Vo and his team. He changed my life by taking the time to explain the detailed pros and cons of lasik, patiently answering all my questions, and giving me the confidence to get it done. AMAZING! read more

Dr. Sarlitt has been our optometrist for many years. years. He's kind, knowledgable, and very thorough. After noticing an area of redness on my eyelid, he referred me to a specialist who found skin cancer. A friendly and welcoming family owned business, even their dog visits. read more

I have never posted a negative review..... but if I can give Dr. Sarlitt negative 100 stars, I would. Unsure about Dr. Vo but the actual owner - Dr. Sarlitt is absolutely horrible. Long story short, I felt that he was too money hungry and milked my insurance and used up all my yearly allowance. Then they called me again to ask me to pay an additional $82 that was outstanding because my insurance did not cover it. I had no choice but to pay it. Stay away at all cost.... read more

This place is awesome. Have been coming here for the last 12 years. There have been changes, but all for the better. There is high end tech that can help detect early eye disease. Dr. Vo is really good at explaining your results and what you can do to minimize your risk for eye problems. The staff here is second to none, always providing exceptional customer service. Always very professional, knowledgeable, and warm. The selection of frames here is unique and eye catching. Every pair has always gotten me tons of compliments! read more

Good service and staffs are nice and patient. Originally I got a progressive lenses and then I realized they are not suitable for me at all. So I interacted with staffs in the optometry and they re-did an eye exam and remade a new pair of glasses for me. This time it is single-visioned and it works great. read more

This is an amazing office. I just walked in off the street and they helped me right away and provided me with great service. The prices are competitive and the service is unbeatable. I highly recommend this office read more

I have been going to Parkview for many years now and highly recommend them! They have a really great selection of unique frames and the doctors and staff are fantastic. read more

Doctor and staff are all great professionals. Great service and great frames to choose from.

My eyes were as red as... well, if you've watched Pineapple Express, you can finish the sentence. At first sight, it looked very serious but the staff at Parkview Optometry were able to provide prompt and effective treatment and sound medical advice. I'm still experiencing symptoms, but it was a relief when Dr. Vo indicated that it was nothing serious. A very professional and well run establishment. read more
