The staff was very kind and welcoming! The doctor I had was amazing. I don't remember her name but she was so knowledgeable and truly listened to my concerns. She explained some things about my eyes that no other doctor had ever taken the time to explain to me. Overall I left feeling super informed, heard and understood. I have a better understanding of what's going on with my eyes and I can't wait to try out the anti-fatigue lenses! The young lady with red hair helped me pick some really cute frames that I liked and I plan to go back to purchase my frames after I try on a few more pairs. I'm so glad my friend recommended them to me! read more

Professional staff,excellent eye exam,relaxed atmosphere.Doctor Cheng is an awesome optometrist.The exam was very detailed,and he helped me understand what was the outcome and why. I appreciated that,and his honesty. Picking out a frame and lens was made easy, with no pressure. I would recommend them to any one in West Hollywood . read more

I had a great first visit! All the staff were super nice. Dr. Cheng was extremely knowledgeable and maintains a friendly relaxed approach that puts patients at ease. He even informed me of slight stigmatism that I wasn't aware of, but it explained why I struggled more with one eye than the other at night. I've worn glasses for more than half my life and never knew this. read more

I had a very poor experience at this ophthalmology clinic and would not recommend it. This was my first visit to the office to get my Meta glasses fitted, and from the moment I arrived, the staff was rushed, disorganized, and unwelcoming. I was given a large amount of paperwork to fill out by hand, with no option to complete forms electronically or in advance. While I was still filling everything out, the staff kept rushing me through the process without explaining what was happening or answering questions. I was asked whether I needed a retinal exam, which I declined, as I had recently had one done at my previous ophthalmologist before moving to the area. Despite this, after seeing the doctor, I was told to proceed with the retinal test anyway without being informed that it would be an out-of-pocket charge. At no point did anyone confirm the cost with me. I was later charged around $85-$95, which was extremely frustrating and unprofessional. What made it worse was that after the test, no one reviewed the results with me. There was no explanation, no discussion of findings just a charge and being sent on my way. Paying for a medical test without any review or communication is unacceptable. Communication regarding my glasses was just as poor. No one ever called me with updates on the status of my glasses. After waiting, I had to call the office myself. I was told they would "follow up with the vendor," and over a week later, I finally received a call back only to be informed that they had just placed the order again. This confirmed that the delay was due to internal issues, not the manufacturer as initially implied. When I finally came in to pick up my glasses, the staff was again rude and dismissive. I was asked "who are you?" in a blunt manner, even after stating my name, and the interaction felt cold and disrespectful. Overall, this office lacks professionalism, transparency, and basic patient care. Between the rushed staff, unexpected charges, lack of consent, zero follow-up, and rude interactions, I will never return and strongly suggest others look elsewhere. read more

Superb service and top notch care. Dr. Jimmy Cheng is thoughtful, communicative and trust-worthy. I hadn't been in several years and needed a new prescription (both contacts + glasses). It was a quick appointment, started on time, and I felt that I got all the attention I needed for my needs to be met. The staff is very friendly, and Sabrina, especially, was helpful as I navigated a few issues with my insurance. Getting trial sizes was easy, too. Highly recommend! read more

I'm so bad at taking care of my eyes I get yelled at all the time for forgetting to take out my contacts. I hate going to the eye doctor, I already know what they're going to say. It gives me such anxiety. I should be more responsible I know. Anyways my friend recommended this place due their large selection of frames, but the doctor was so nice I'll make the extra drive. No judgment zone & great bedside manner but he still got his point across. If you're dreading the eye doctor this is the place to go, everyone is so nice. Great experience overall read more

Went to get my first set of glasses. The optometrist was very knowledgeable and thorough in the eye exam process. I am really happy with my glasses and will likely return for a new pair when needed. read more

Love Love Love Dr. Cheng!!! He is such a wonderful man and great doctor! Everyone I go in I have such a lovely experience and feel taken care of. read more

I've gone to Professional Visioncare a few times and have always been happy with the care and service. Just received my newest glasses and could not be more satisified. Thank you Dr. Cheng and everyone who helped. 8-15-25. read more

the service was absolutely wonderful, great,friendly and helpful staff!!! The store is super clean&organized, they addressed all of our needs and we left really happy. Highly recommend this place to everyone! read more

Highly recommend! Dr. Cheng and the staff are knowledgable, friendly and thorough. They care about their customers. My appointment was on time, and I didn't feel rushed. If you're looking for an eye doctor, this is the place! read more

Dr. Jimmy R. Cheng and his staff are WONDERFUL! My wife and I got new insurance through her employer, so we had to unexpectedly find a new in-network optometrist. We consider ourselves super lucky because this office is GREAT! The staff is friendly, the office has a relaxed vibe with some cool artwork on the walls, and the glasses selection was pretty great! We truly feel we've found our new home for anything vision! Thanks Dr. Jimmy! Y'all really made our visit memorable, and we're looking forward to bringing our kiddo around someday! -Ace and Krystal read more

I have been going to Dr. Cheng for a while now and he's exceptional - his staff is top notch and he is contientious, caring, thorough and makes you feel like you are the only patient. He takes his time and explains everything you need to know to be put at ease. I have complete confidence in him and can't recommend him more highly. read more

I always appreciate great customer service and bedside manner when it comes to my health/body. They have put protocols in place to keep patients and employees safe. You enter through the back entrance and then a screening is done with temperature checks and questions. All employees had masks on. There's is a waiting section that is away from employees. An assistant/technician does the work up before seeing Dr. Cheng. Dr. Cheng is always friendly and takes the time to check in on any eye concerns I have. He is personable and informative. I noticed he wiped down all the equipment and chair before I sat down. He was great with my kids as well! My 5 yo can be very anxious around doctors. He made it seamless and easy. I didn't have to step in to help. When shopping for frames, you can select the ones you want to try on and then they ask that you place it on the side so they can clean it before they put it back up on display. I appreciate the safety measures. We make a long hour drive just to continue seeing Dr. Cheng. Our whole family are patients (husband and two kids 9yo amd 5yo). If you're in need of contacts, glasses, or other eye concerns, this is the place. They don't treat you like a number and crank out exams like an assembly line that other places do. read more

Just finished my eye exam with the Dr. He is incredibly professional and personable. Katie at the front desk was kind and very helpful. I feel lucky to have a great optometrist near home. I will definitely continue to come back for all me vision needs! PS. Can't wait for my new glasses! read more

OUTSTANDING CUSTOMER SERVICE! If you're looking for a new optometrist, look no further! I am beyond pleased with my sunglasses and progressive reading glasses from Professional VisionCare. The level of service is definitely worthy of all five stars (and then some). They go above and beyond! I also want to commend the doctors here for making sure that you're 100% happy. My initial reading glasses needed to be adjusted because of an error in the prescription. The doctor conducted a second exam to fix the prescription, and I'm very pleased with the end result. It was perfect. The entire office staff is professional, personable, helpful, friendly and accommodating. I will definitely be coming back for all my eye care needs! read more

Just the best eye doctor I've ever been to. His exams are more thorough, his explanations really clear and detailed, and he's also just a really great guy to deal with. Highly recommended. read more

Discovered this place on yelp. Went in and got the best glasses and the best service. I would recommend this place to anyone. Also, it is conveniently located next to a cute restaurant and some vintage stores so you can make it a whole moment. read more

Dr. Cheng and his staff are very professional. I visited this place for around 10 years (since 2013) before moving. Dr. Cheng is very patient and answers all the questions. I highly recommend this place and Dr. Cheng for your vision needs. read more

I have to give Katie five stars for providing amazing service, for her professionalism and for being so knowledgeable in explaining the different options I had when I ordered my glasses. Katie is definitely an asset to professional Visioncare. read more

I can't believe it has taken me this long to post a review. I have been going there for several years. My husband goes there as well. Dr. Cheng, Brian, Angel, and Andrea are amazing (not in any particular order). Amazing patient care from start to finish. Dr. Cheng truly takes his time with patients and has a personable and gentle approach. The office provides a thoughtful review and education of insurance coverage. Fantastic help in selecting new frames (great selection) and more. These folks are the best. Highly recommend. It is a joy to be a patient and walk out of the office with a true smile on my face and comfort knowing I am in great care. read more

Professional Visioncare of West Hollywood is a treasure. Brian and his team are helpful, skilled and honest. No high pressure sales tactics. They really want to help from the heart. I walked in because I love around the corner and I thought it was convenient but knowing what I know now, I wouldn't driven across LA to get my eyes checked there. And the glasses are super chic! read more

I have been a patient of Dr. Cheng's for the last 11-12 years, and every time my insurance changes and I make sure I'm able to go to him. He's compassionate for his patients and he's kept up with mine and my family's life changes. He's one of those doctors that truly cares for his patients. His staff has changed over the years due to the pandemic, but nonetheless, his staff have ALWAYS been kind, professional and have made me feel welcome and well taken care of. I recommend Dr. Cheng to everyone I know looking for an optometrist. He and his staff are truly amazing! read more

I just visited Professional Visioncare and saw Dr. Law. Dr. Law was amazing and informative. The staff, not so much. One of the associates did not understand a word I was saying and the other gentlemen that attempted to help me were extremely rude and impatient. His shirt was not buttoned completely and his stomach was exposed. Especially in a professional setting such as this proper attire should be mandatory. Also, they did not have any glasses that I wanted. Part of the reason was that I felt extremely rushed. He basically said, "don't worry you won't hurt our feelings if you go elsewhere for your glasses." I went down the street to another business and ordered a pair of glasses and a 3 month supply of contacts. They missed out on a big sale. I wish my business was as good as theirs where I didn't have to help customers and worry about my bottom line. Needless to say, I will not be returning to Professional Visioncare. read more

Could not be more impressed with the eye test and contact lens fitting services here. I've worn contact lenses for 30 years and the test I relieved last week was the most thorough and well explained I've ever had. The doctor not only explained my retina scan, but also the issue I've been experiencing, and the options I have to help said issue. He completely changed my eye prescription which now allows me to see well up close as I do for distance, and I already notice the difference in my daily life - especially when enduring hours in front of the computer. Really great optometrist - will keep going to him for sure. read more

I've been coming here for years! Dr. Jimmy Cheng and his staff are great. Shout out to Angel for his excellent customer service. :) Also, wanted to mention that there is usually convenient meter parking in front which is a big deal in LA. read more

I've been a patient of Dr. Cheng's for years and he does an amazing job. When I needed cataract surgery, he found a fantastic surgeon for me and my annual exams are always thorough and complete. He has a great rapport with patients, and explains everything in terms the lay person can understand - and understands if the retinal scan photos squick you out! His office works great with my insurance, too! Shout out to Angel, who helped me pick out the perfect pair of frames in nanoseconds - he listened carefully to what I said I liked and didn't like, and found me exactly what I wanted - which was impressive, since *I* didn't really know what I wanted. read more

I came here last December because my eyes were burning when I put my contact lenses in. Post visit, Dr. Cheng told me to only use a specific contact lens solution and change contact lenses to a different brand. I called 1-800 Contacts and placed a 6 month order, which Dr. Cheng's office approved after a long back and forth and many unreturned emails, in order to follow his directions. Now, that I'm trying to place a refill order, his office is rejecting the confirmation from 1-800 Contacts because they're saying I need to make another appointment and go in there for a prescription appointment even though my prescription hasn't changed as attested to last December. Very difficult office and staff to get a hold. You need to follow up with them numerous times in order to confirm something or get a call back. I would recommend looking elsewhere. read more

My first time at PVC optometry and everyone was pleasant enough. After I had my eyes checked, I wanted updated lenses in my favorite LA Eyeworks frames (they were only a year old and cost $500). A few days later I received a call from PVC telling me my frames were broken when they changed the lenses. When got the damaged frames back they were completely destroyed and broken in several areas (it seemed intentional). They were not very upset about the damage and blamed LA Eyeworks and gave me a offer of a small discount on frames if I bought them there. In desperate need of glasses I took their offer on a pair of Ray Bans. Hours After I left with the glasses, I realized there was a small scratch on the lens. I was so angry about the whole situation I just never went back and its taken me months to write this review. I don't trust these guys. Be warned. read more

Great customer service! Love the staff! Came here for all my consultations. Dr Cheng and Dr Kim rock!!

There are few services I would drive more than 3 hours for round trip but I gladly do so to see Dr. Jimmy every year for my annual eye exam. He is the most professional, kind, and caring optometrist I've had in over 30 years of wearing glasses and contacts. What's more, he's actually been able to reduce my prescription over the last few years which is just amazing. His office has a very nice, high-end selection of frames and the staff is always very professional and friendly (even when I am late for my appointments due to the long drive and cause havoc on the schedule). Highly recommend this place for all my fellow vision-challenged friends read more

I cannot believe that is still haven't made a review yet!! I have been coming here since 2002, when it was still under Dr. Lawenda. Dr Cheng bought the place several years ago and maintained the same staff, named Terry, Aileen and Amber. Recently the got Angel who is a great addition. Unfortunately, our dearest Aileen just passed away, toward the end of March. She will be missed. And most recently, Summer has joined the team. Anyways, back to the review: Staff: As mentioned,just a great group of people. Always very helpful, lending their knowledge with any situation or request you may have. Exam: Dr Cheng is very thorough with his exam. He always checks your history, precious prescription, and does all the fundamental tests. He also gives insight on possible health concerns should he notice any inkling of an issue, that way you can go get it checked. Parking: Huge metered parking at the back of the office and metered street parking in front. Selection: They have a wide range of frames and makers. I wanted a specific one they don't carry and we're able to work with me on securing it while applying any insurance coverage I had. Overall, my family and I are very happy with Professional Visioncare and plan to be going there for more years to come. read more

I've been seeing (no pun intended) Dr. Jimmy Cheng for years. Starting at his Santa Monica location since it was close to my office, then switched to the WeHo location since it's closer to home AND has Saturday hours. I mean, who DOES THAT?!? Well, He does. Dr. Jimmy is exceptionally knowledgable about some of my health issues and how they connect to my vision. (I especially love that his background includes having studied Eastern medicine.) He's personable, knowledgable and I know I'm getting amazing care for my eyes. His WeHo office offers a variety of testing machines as well as a large display of frames. His staff: the Opticians, Eileen and Amber, are very friendly and super helpful. And patient. Did I mention how patient they are with the pre-testing? When selecting frames, they always go over what my insurance provides and the best way to go about getting what's needed. They know VSP inside and out which enables me to save money against any needed payments on my end. Frame selection: the Opticians and staff have always been incredibly helpful when it comes to frame selection. Most recently, I selected new sunglasses & frames with the understanding I could make changes w/in 90 days. When they were ready, I changed my mind on both pair. (I've never done this before). I made new selections with their assistance (thanks again Angel and Amber) and swapped out the lenses on my sunglasses. I was thrilled with the results. And I was told to come in if I ever needed any adjustments on the frames or help w/anything else (much appreciated Eileen). I've referred Dr. Jimmy and this specific location to many a friend/colleague and they all say the same thing: THANK YOU for referring me to Dr. Jimmy. He's the best! My response: I KNOW!! Why would you go anywhere else? read more

Wow! This place has gone to the dogs. Other than the young man who has been there for a long time the new staff is horrible! The woman who helped me was lifeless, no personality, felt like I was bothering her with my questions. Made me feel unwelcome and uncomfortable. The man working there was rude and abrupt as well. God forgive you walk in without an appointment! They will bite your head off and say no to any questions you may have. They seem like they just don't want to be bothered. Sorry guys, it's called customer service! There seems to be tremendous turnover in the staff over the past year or two. Seems like every few months a whole new staff is there. Once the longtime previous staff left, it really went downhill. They always found a way to help and were so pleasant to deal with. GET THEM BACK. This bunch is destroying the business. read more

From the moment we walked in...Angel treated us like family. I took my 77 year old mom in and he was very considerate in performing the needed exams in light of her limited mobility. We then saw Dr. CHENG...once again not only very knowledgeable but great patient manners. He diagnosed her condition and conducted an eye exam. Look forward to returning to pick up her glasses. Will also look into going myself as well as my family. A. Platon. Patient...c.m. read more

Professional Visioncare - Angel working his magic... - Optometrists Near Me - Los Angeles, California

I have seen Dr. Jimmy Cheng for twelve years now! There are a multitude of reasons I will always be loyal, including but not limited to the fact that he's great, knowledgeable, and as another reviewer said, it's like catching up with a great friend while getting a truly excellent eye exam. Everyone who works at the office is friendly and professional. I trust Dr. Cheng and actually enjoy my time reading the tiny letters at the bottom of the screen. :) I have also been the beneficiary of his skills and wisdom in various areas of vision health, from finding comfortable contacts to dealing with dry eye and allergies. read more

Dr Jimmy is the best! I've been going here for years and recommend them to anyone looking for an optometrist. Their equipment and staff are top notch, their eyewear selection is great, and they're very helpful with navigating insurance. Highly recommended. read more

In my opinion, Dr Taketa is a pompous and arrogant OD who treated me like a number and seemed more interested in making money than helping me find the right contact lenses for my eyes. He was impatient and righteous, and seemed to be in a rush both times I saw him. When I was in his office today for a contact fitting, the first pair of contacts was too strong, so I asked to try a different pair and said I'd be happy to pay for the extra set, to which he said that he would have to charge me double the cost of the fitting since it was "double his time." I was absolutely shocked. Isn't the point of a fitting to find the appropriate brand and strength of prescription? Needless to say, I was least impressed. read more

This is my first time getting glasses so I wanted to make sure I felt comfortable with my doctor. I actually went to Dr. Cheng as a 2nd opinion and I will never go to another eye doctor again. He was terrific. The staff was amazing. I felt so comfortable in the office and had a much better understanding of what my next steps were. I highly recommend and would love to give them more stars if I could. read more

Not to brag, but I have really good eyesight, so it was just a case of severely itchy eyes that brought me in last year. Dr. Cheng and his staff took fantastic care of me, explaining every detail of what they were doing, and making me feel completely comfortable through the entirety of the exam. In the end, he gave me some advice on how to handle my eyes and a prescription for some lenses to enhance my everyday vision to HD when necessary. I had to go back in recently because my prescription was feeling too strong, but this is because there isn't much to correct so it's a bit of an experiment. Dr. Cheng never rushes the process, and genuinely wants to get to the bottom of any symptoms your eyes may be experiencing, especially if an adjustment needs to be made. Appointment scheduling is easy and they're open on Saturdays, which is huge when you work a full time job during the week. The store is clean and welcoming, with just enough eyewear choices that you don't get too overwhelmed. And not only does the staff take time to help you select frames that fit your price point, but they will also tell you honestly if they fit your face. So thankful for my friend's recommendation - never going anywhere else. read more
