Winnie Y.

I had a smooth experience here with Dr. Yu and also decided to grab new prescription sunglasses here too. They accept VSP. Scheduling an appointment was super easy and a lot of slots were available. Intake forms were completed on my own via online link, so I didn't have to sit around waiting for too long when I arrived for my actual appointment. My prescription was emailed to me same day without me having to even request. Point Richmond Optometry is not pushy at all about purchasing frames from them. It seemed like they couldn't care less and they didn't have much of an opinion either when I asked which ones looked better on me. However, it is refreshing to go to an optometry office and not feel pressured at all about buying frames. They offered to show me the selection that was covered under my insurance and explained the prices of add-ons. I did in fact end up getting new frames from here though because I didn't want to bother shopping around elsewhere and I knew Point Richmond Optometry could get it all done.

Kind, caring, knowledgeable, professional and friendly, with state-of-the-art equipment, the folks here aren't finished until you're happy. We drive a ways to get to Point Richmond Optometry, and that's the reason. Make an appointment, let them take care of you, and you'll see what I mean. And yes, they handle the insurance stuff, too.

I was in need of new glasses and decided to try the closest optometry to my work. So close it was walking distance, so perfect for after-lunch appointments. I normally get vision tests at Kaiser while glasses are usually at Costco. At some point, you just get tired of the take-a-number system and long lines. Also, my free time is increasingly limited these days with an energetic 2yo. Point Richmond Optometry is appointment-only, and its great they respond quickly by text. Their selection of frames is not as big as Costco or Lens-crafters, but I found what I liked. Ultra-light, Ray Ban plastic frames that feel great, almost like nothing's there. Service was great as they'll bring several styles for you to try, based on your preferences. You'll need a separate appointment for fitting adjustments once the glasses arrive, just under 2 weeks in my case. You'll get glasses, cleaning solution, towelette, and a chocolate bar. Sweet!

See all

Over the phone the woman scheduling the appointment was VERY helpful! She ran our insurance let us know the exact cost and out of pocket fees. She called back with a 24 reminder the day before and all went smoothly. Following my sons appointment I scheduled my husband and myself for appointments as well. After I got our appointment time wrong and showed up way too early (even after the 24 hr. reminder), we were still accommodated! The check up was thorough. The doctor took his time giving my husband and myself a comprehensive exam, after which Hazel was especially helpful in finding the right frames that fit our budget. The office is quaint, very clean, and has a nice selection of frames. They are also very mindful of COVID mandates and do not overbook. They allow no more than 2 customers at a time for safety purposes, and clean all areas after use. The customer service is exceptional! The doctor is efficient, and precise. The office staff and optometrists assistants we great! Super attentive and kind.We will definitely be back, so grateful to have good eye care nearby.

Janet Chan is warm, gentle and exudes kindness. She was able to figure out my exact prescription very efficiently (usually it takes a lot longer) but she seems more competent than the average optometrist in her ability to arrive at the prescription strength for my glasses. Her office staff particularly the girl who helped me locate glass frames were good at finding something I liked. I essentially found a pair of frames that was covered 100 percent by insurance and for the lens, I brought all the bells and whistles including UV protection (transitional lens), glare and scratch resistance, thin lens and the latest reading/distance glasses which added up to 400 dollars and my last pair of glasses was more than a 1000 dollars. Hopefully I will like the final product in a few weeks. So far, I am glad to have found such a great optometrist in my neighborhood thanks to the referral one of my co-workers gave me recently.

It was my first time getting fitted for contact lenses, and I'm so glad I had come here instead of…read moreanywhere else. The waiting room was spacious with an abundance of seats and exceptionally clean. Prior to my appointment, I was given a thorough questionnaire about my eye and general health. I appreciated this because it demonstrated an interest in the patient's health as a whole, instead of focusing solely on the eyes. I have been to other specialists who haven't taken much time to consider any other health issues, but being diagnosed with an autoimmune condition has completely changed my outlook since that diagnosis has impacted my eyes. I knew even before I had met with Dr. Anaya, that I was going to be in good hands. When it was my turn to go, I was both greeted, and escorted, to the office space where my eyes would be examined. The staff here was very kind and explained everything thoroughly during my pre-exam. This was especially important since I had always been nervous about getting prescription contact lenses (despite using color ones in the past), but the staff here and Dr. Anaya had made me feel comfortable and answered all of my questions. Dr. Anaya took the time to answer all of my questions about my eye health, contact lenses, and thoroughly explained my eye's health to me as well. I have worn glasses for years, and I have never had a more comprehensive and thorough exam! It made me feel as though I knew where my eye health was standing, which gave me more confidence and relief than when I had first entered the office! I appreciated Dr. Anaya's recommendations for my eye health, hearing good news is always priceless. Even knowing my eye health was looking good, Dr. Anaya had validated my concerns and was very reassuring. After getting fitted for contact lenses, I went to update my prescription for glasses. I had just gotten glasses the year before, but they had given me a much weaker prescription and corrective lenses - both, weren't doing my eyes any favors! In the end, I was able to try on glasses until I found the perfect pair. The woman who was helping me find my glasses gave me awesome recommendations since I knew what type of frames I had wanted. I ended up loving her selections and left feeling excited and confident about my new glasses' arrival. Everyone here is so kind and attentive and you are guaranteed excellent, informative, care.

If you try to make an appointment online by clicking their emails that remind you to, they say they'll call you and they never do. The only way to do it is to call them.

Such as highly recommending additional tests just to be safe. And pushing for separate computer glasses without really providing an understanding of why they could be optional. Additionally, I suffer from the occasional red eye due to dry tear ducts and long hours in front of a computer due to work. To remedy this, I use a lubricating eye drop which the optometrist claimed I shouldn't use as it supposedly had preservatives. Instead, she tried to push a costly eyedrop brand they carried in-house. This claim however that my over-the-counter eyedrops contained preservatives was definitely false. As the bottles clearly state that they are preservative free. And was recommended to me by an ophthalmologist I had just seen last year. To add insult to injury, the salesperson who helped me to pick out new frames never disclosed to me additional discounts that VSP was offering for certain brands. I only wound up finding out about it after going home and seeing the various promotions through VSP's website for Solano EyeCare. When confronted about it when I went to pickup my new glasses, they stated that it was my responsibility to know what promotions my provider was offering. This is the only optometrist I've ever visited that wasn't aware of or otherwise disclosed additional discounts off specific brands at the time of sale. I understand the need to upsell. But everything about my experience at Solano EyeCare just felt dishonest and non-transparent.
