Hello Optometry has given me 20-20 vision after 3 decades of uncorrectable eye issues!…read more If you have complicated or poor eyes, you need Dr. Michelle Cho. She will put in as much time, effort, customizing, and patient education as it takes to get you to healthy, perfect vision. Hello Optometry also charges low prices, especially given the exceptional amount of time and effort Dr. Cho puts into each follow-up. ... I have poor, complicated vision due to several problems such as Meibobian Gland Dysfunction, Dry Eye syndrome, and eye allergies in my heavily astagmatic and myopic eyes. As a result, at age 35 I'd given up on reaching anything close to adequate vision! I was about to go under the knife for Lasik because in all of my years at various optometrists, no one could ever bring my vision anywhere near other people's. And every other optometrist I'd been to just threw up their hands... it appeared contacts simply could not correct vision as poor as mine. Dr. Michelle Cho showed them all wrong. After walking in off the street and getting a comprehensive contact lens exam, Dr. Cho had me seeing better than I had since I was ten. A couple follow-ups later and I can FINALLY say, for the first time in 3 decades: I can see "20-20"!! I never imagined this would be possible for me without surgery. Michelle had to keep ordering me more and more specialized, practically custom astigmatism contacts and then evaluating exactly how they sat in my eye & how much they moved when I blink to find the perfect, customized prescription for my vision and eye health. She also evaluated and started treatment for my severe dry eye syndrome and allergies. Throughout all this, Dr. Cho explained everything she was doing and observing, and I felt like we were truly working together to fix my eyes. Dr. Michelle Cho is the definitely the most capable, kind, and skilled optometrist I've ever been to. I cannot recommend her highly enough. * * * December 2024: Years later, I still go to Dr. Cho. Every time I go, she teaches me something new about my eyes. She teaches me about my MGD, what the newest treatments are and whether I'm a good candidate, she helps with coupons and prior authorizations... She is genuinely the most caring and knowledgeable optometrist I've ever encountered. I will continue to go back to Dr Cho as long as I live in California. * * * March 2025: How does she keep getting better? I love this optometrist. She spends SO much time with you, using every ounce of medical expertise and newest technology to try to fix your problem. My astigmatism is terrible and my dry eye is worse and she is constantly pulling out all the stops to try new tech and new options to get me some relief. She never gives up and she never gets tired of hearing my complaints! She has all the latest tech and is incredibly up to date on the state of the art. She's also just really funny and sweet, I genuinely like visiting her. Jocelyn is the best!! The whole office is great. Love this place. * * * August 2025: I mean, it's the same problem every time with me. Horrible dry eyes and horrible astigmatism. Yet Dr Cho has endless patience and endless new ideas. She's well versed on all the latest innovations and never stops trying new things (today we discussed using a different brand of contacts and punctal plugs). I don't know how she doesn't get sick of me, honestly. Did I mention my whole family goes to her now? My amazing experience with her has caused my father and my step mother to both switch to Dr Cho. She rarely ever charges me enough, in my opinion, to compensate her for the immense time and effort she puts into our visits. She even deals with my insurance company on my behalf. She called insurance to figure out why my Xiidra suddenly became $800 a month and got it down to $0 somehow. I love Dr Cho. --- August 2026: Words cannot describe how grateful I am that I found this doctor. My eye problems just keep getting worse, and Dr Cho seems to have endless patience for my complaints. Finding the right lenses to accommodate my severe astigmatism is an unending task. But she never ever gets impatient or tells me to just accept that my vision sucks. Instead, she keeps trying different brands, different axes, different dry eye products. She's up to date on all the newest developments and treatments, but she never pushes anything. She's genuinely so warm and friendly that I look forward to our appointments.

My husband goes to Hello Optometry for his vision exams and glasses. He likes that they carry the…read moreEco brand because they have a magnetic sunglasses lens that he can put over his glasses. This makes it simple so he doesn't have to carry sunglasses with him. The exams are quick and easy. The doctor spends time going through it all with you and makes you feel listened to. He has seen both doctors here and thinks they are both great. A plus is that he could use his frames from last time and just get new lenses. They ordered the new lenses and we came back a week later for them to replace. It only took them about 45 mins, so we went and spent time in the circle. A note on insurance- they will have you pay out of pocket and then when insurance processes, you will receive a reimbursement check in the mail.

The doctor himself was very easy to talk to, straight-forward and was not at all sales pitchy. He explained everything thoroughly and in terms I could understand. I, like I assume most people, have a "thing" about touching my eye. So when the doctor suggest contacts my defenses immediately went up. Fortunate and unfortunately my vision is poor enough to warrant contact lenses free of charge. So the doctor and has team offered to help me, as long as required, learn to put in and take out contacts it's as much ease as I could possibly allow myself. I wish I had seen Dr. Vansuch much sooner. He is definitely someone I would recommend to anyone concerned with not only their vision, but the Heath of their eyes.

I brought in my contact box for them to see BC fit. When finished they let me know that for contact prescription I would need to pay a fitting fee of $215 to $289. (in 50 years of contact wearing I've never heard of a fitting fee for current contact users). I asked them to just give me the new contact prescription for the contact I currently wear and was told they can't give me a contact prescription without me paying the fitting fee. I've now my insurance paid 1 eye exam for the year and have to either pay their fee of go to another doctor for a full exam (which is half the price of their fitting fee) and get my contact prescription, contacts and glasses. I should have paid more attention to the poor reviews!!! I will say Everyone is really nice while they tell you their extorsion rules as they apologize and try to say it's your fault... so nice that I think having disgruntled clients is a very common thing... poor employees
