Dr Young fixed the problem I have had with the last 5+ eye Drs I have seen to get an eye exam for glasses. I get glasses and my eyes are still fuzzy. I tell them the glasses are suppose to have "corrective lenses." In other words, I should have sharp vision, not fuzzy vision with my new glasses. I recently discovered while coloring with my head leaning to the left, that I can see clear and then when I straighten my head back up my vision is fuzzy. When I told Dr Young what I discovered he said he could fix that. He did just that, and now I see very clearly. It's crazy that NO other eye Dr checked this problem out when I complained about having fuzzy vision with new glasses on. They just said "you nee to get use to the new prescription." Well it's hard to get used to a prescription that's WRONG for my eyes. THANK YOU Dr Young, for giving me back my sharp, in focus, eyesight back. Barbara O. Cottonwood, CA read more

My grandmother saw Dr. Young for an exam in May of 2017 and got glasses here. They sold her $570 glasses and a year later billed over $300 for that office visit. Then, when I emailed to clarify, Dr Young told me his staff said they billed her in Nov and talked to her several times (they did not). I think that this practice took advantage of my grandmother and charged an outrageous price for an office visit. Will never return. read more

This is my first year going to a new eye doctor, as I am newer to the Redding area. The staff was friendly. Dr Young himself nice enough. I had my first eye exam, and was told I had extremely dry eyes. Something I had never been told by any other providers, as I lived in a dry climate for all my life before moving here. Dr young told me if I wanted contacts, he would have to put in collagen plugs in my tear ducts. He also asked if I used eye drops, and then dismissed what he said, saying the only way I could ever wear contacts was to have this procedure done. So I went ahead and scheduled, even though I didn't feel my eyes were dry, or in need of this procedure, but I really wanted to get contacts, as I had ran out of my last pair. The procedure was fine. 5 minutes, barely, to have ducts put in. I paid upfront for my contacts as soon as I was done and was told I would get a call when they came in. I asked beforehand if my insurance would cover the procedure, they said they should cover most of it, and I would receive statement in the mail. 3 months later I received a statement. Almost $400. FOUR HUNDRED to put little plugs in my eye, that are smaller than a grain of rice, to fix some supposed dry eye situation. I work in the medical field, and we always inform patients of any upfront costs from procedures. I was not notified. I will be finding a new optometrist for my eyecare, as I feel I was given no other option to get my contacts, other than this procedure. And I work full time, and unfortunately took a whole afternoon off work to get my initial appointment done, and to get the plugs put in. read more

I'm from out of town; stopped by this office to have glasses adjusted. Beth assisted me with this. As I waited, I checked out their large selection of eyeglasses trying on pretty much everything they had in Fendi, Gucci, Caviar etc. I had gone for an eye exam last June but did not get prescription filled as I was not comfortable with the diagnosis or the service provided by LensCrafters. Beth gave me exceptional customer service! Because of this, her experience and professionalism I went ahead and had another eye exam, bought new eyeglasses and I'm very pleased and happy with the diagnosis and my new eyewear. Thank you to Dr Michael Young, Beth and the rest of his staff. Everyone extremely friendly and helpful. Great experience!!! read more

I do not have a regular optometrist as I have not yet needed one. Recently, however I injured my eye at work and needed to be seen by one quickly. I made a list of doctors to call based on who took my insurance, and I was fortunate enough that Dr. Young at Redding Eye Care Center was on that list. I had called a few others and they either would not see me because I was not a patient, or just wouldn't pick up the phone, or had long wait times. I couldn't wait days to be seen I was in severe pain. Kelly at Dr. Youngs office answered and got me in right away. She was so sweet! Dr. Young discovered a piece of iron in my eye, that even left some rust. I was dreading being poked and prodded in my eye, but Dr. Young was so gentle it didn't even hurt. He got everything out within just a couple of minutes. He is extremely knowledgeable, respectful, and sincere. I did not have an optometrist before, but now, I know I would go to Dr.Young with any and all of my eye care needs. read more

Dr. Young has been my optometrist for quite a few years. There are many reasons to recommend him: He has all the latest equipment for finding eye diseases in their earliest stages. He is very knowledgeable in his field. He is patient and diligent in his approach to patients. He runs a very orderly on-time office. He answers all questions. I just happened upon his office when we first moved to Redding as I worked across the street from him and I'm very happy I did! read more

My family and I switch to Dr. Young after a bad experience at another office. His staff was friendly and our appointments started right on time. The last place we waited for more than 30 minutes for our appointments. Dr. Young was very pleasant and explained everthing to us as he was doing the tests. The exam was very complete and he did several tests we had never had done at any other office. I really like that he doesn't do the air puff test for your eye pressure. He has a neat electronic instrument that was easy and painless. His office has a good selection of glasses and my wife loved her new contact lenses. Dr. Young used some new type of lens material and design that allowed my wife to see better than ever. I have since referred several friends and my parents to his office. I would highly recommend his office. The only negative was that our insurance was not accepted by his office. But his staff helped us bill our insurance and we got reimbursed by the company directly. If you want your eyes done right give them a try. They are not the cheapest in town, but I already tried that route and it didn't work so well. read more

I tried 3 other doctors trying to get contacts to work for me. no one was able to get them right until Dr. Young. He took the time to make sure they worked for me. He used some special instrument to measure my eyes and then modified the power for the contacts. They work great! Went back a month later ordered my glasses. I tried the new high definition lens. They really improved my vision especially at night. Now I don't mind wearing my glasses. Another thing that I liked was he ran on time. For a busy guy like me that makes a difference. He wasn't the cheapest in town, but I already tried that guy. He was worth the cost. Got it right the first time. I already sent a friend of mine to him and he was happy too. I think the name of the special lenses is IZON or something like that. read more
