Great customer experience. I actually got my prescription from my regular optometrist in Palmdale. I came to Target Optical in Burbank to choose my eyewear, since it was extremely recommended. I'm so glad I listened. I walked in to this place thinking the staff might not like me, since my prescription was from somewhere else. In the contrary, everyone, including one of the doctors were too kind, and helpful. I found a large variety of branded eyewear. And with the knowledge, assistance, and patience of Tracy I was able to walk out of there happy, satisfied, and now recommending this place. Thank you Tracy! read more

Got my prescription from another place and found a great pair of eye glasses here! It was about $200.00 less than what I had priced in other shops. I recommend going in to see what they have. The people I dealt with were very pleasant and no pressure. read more

Mosses and his staff are exceptional. I had a great experience trying to find the perfect pair of sunglasses and eyes glasses. Came here after spending a while at the extremely overpriced Lens Crafters and found my same selection options for 50% less. My order came much quicker than expected and the fitting process was seamless. read more

Had an amazing experience, 10/10 would recommend. Showed early for my appointment with Dr. Binh Nguyen and was received well and was processed quickly. Let the staff know I was coming for glasses and had Moses and Clinton help me. They were extremely helpful and and made enough light hearted jokes to make the process fun and easy. After having been to Costco and Sears it was refreshing to not have folks breathing down my neck to get polishes and plans and more expensive frames. I got the insurance plan and write this after having broken my glasses and received a new pair. Would recommend this place to anyone. read more

I've never had prescription glasses before and so, it was with great trepidation, that I approached seeing a doctor and dealing with the issue. I selected this Target because of its reviews and now, here I am. I scheduled an appt and came in not knowing what would unfold. The entire staff, including Dr. Nyugen, were all great. Smart, courteous and helpful. I was guided through the process professionally, both before and after my exam. The Dr. was thorough, explained everything so that I could understand and then gave me options. I chose to have the lens made through Target, instead of Warby Parker, not just because of cost or convenience, but because I feel the service was and will be commendable. I don't write many reviews, so it take a lot to get me to write one. Target Optical Empire is a good place to go if you need glasses or contacts. read more

This isn't my favorite place to go for prescriptions but I have to say the customer service I received recently was incredible! I had ordered contacts and after deciding I needed a different prescription I asked for a refund, which turned into a full time job, however, Moses was so wonderful at helping me get a refund. He called to check in with me to make sure I received it and once we discovered it had been sent to the wrong address, he continued to work to get me my refund and called me before I ever needed to call them to make sure I got it. It really was outstanding customer service on their part. Thanks Moses! read more

Dr. Thuy Nguyen was fantastic. I went there based on the reviews about Dr. Hsu, but there's no drop off in quality with Dr. Nguyen. Extremely pleasant and very knowledgeable. She's somewhat chatty, but almost all the talk is information for the client, and delivered in a way that's empowering and easy to understand. She's all business AND very friendly... which is tough to pull off in my experiences. The sales department is very nice, but they are what they are -- salespeople. The 10% AAA discount only applies to a contacts sale that'll cover a year (something they conveniently fail to mention at the get go), and the ONLY Acuvue Oasis boxes available are 12 packs (Target online has the 6 packs, but no matter... I was going to buy a bunch anyway). And use your AAA card for the exam. You get $10 off. read more

my optometrist is cuter than your optometrist.... i did not find any frames i wanted...face my head is huge...but there is some possible finds if you look... the optometrist name is Dr. Amy S. Hsu..shes a real pro and is quck with out missing any details..after she goes over the exam with you so you are clear about your eyes. its $50 bucks for an exam...all ya need now to go over to OLD FOCALS and find some cool frames... than go to HAPPY EYS to fill them... I give this place a postive..its quick and while yoru in targe you can buy some new t shrits or socks or buy some soap... rad.... read more

Dr. Hsu is awesome and gets 5 stars in my book. What is not awesome is the terrible and just down right mind blowingly dumb service department. Double check everything they due because without a doubt they will screw it up. From giving me the wrong glasses to overcharging to double booking appointments. These people have no clue what they are doing. Take you percription elsewhere read more

Horrible experience. I went in for contacts; the "fill in" doctor gave me a trial pair to try on that we're suppose to be my prescription....they weren't! She told me I could see how they were and come back and order them in a week....that's wrong! I had to order them right then and there. I spent a week with wrong contacts; not being able to see correctly. It was bad. I never got a prescription of my lenses. I was told that if I bought a years supply of contacts I would be getting a rebate. I DOUBLE checked with Adrian as he was placing my order. (I have astigmatism, most of my stuff is expensive and not on rebates unfortunately.) he reassured me that I would not have a problem getting the rebate and he put the rebate form with my file. I was only going to buy 6 months worth, but since I had the rebate I figured hell why not it's worth it. I go to pick up my lenses last night, not one mention of the rebate to me. I found it kind of weird, but I was tired and wanted to go home as I had been working all day. I go to check the rebate this morning and sure enough the contacts that I wear are not valid as a rebate!!! This was the first and ONLY time I will ever use Target Optical. I emailed them to complain and so far no response. All in all a horrible experience! Don't go here unless you want to be lied to! read more

Moses was super helpful with my insurance, pricing, and picking out the right glasses. Doctor Nguyen was very professional, efficient, and patient in helping me get my prescription right. The whole process was pleasant and very easy. read more

This review is based solely on my experience with Moses in optical department. I have shopped around at several other optical stores for glasses for my daughter and Target has THE BEST selection for kids glasses. 3 years now we have worked with Moses, he's knowledgeable and patient with us. read more

Best place ever! The doctor and the little Asian man Maurice and the other girl Gaby are so nice and fun. Overall great experience they helped me with choosing my glasses and getting me the best deal with my contacts I spent way less then I would've because they have this deal where if you buy 100$ worth of contacts you get the glasses (premium lenses) for 50% off. I would recommend read more

The doctor here is amazing. The staff not so much. They can't even give you the right appointment day. My 2 year old has an eye infection and I made an appointment for her I see the dr. The girl who answered told me it would be for today. Guess not! She apparently doesn't know her days. And when I called the guy that answered had the odosaty to laugh at my situation. read more

Wow. Made an appt at 10:30 this morning for 12:30. When I get there, the lady hadn't written anything down! The optometrist was actually helpful and, after initially being not that friendly, warmed up. The staff on the sales side was super aggressive and rude. read more

Moses helped me yesterday and he was great! Trying to save me money in any which way! Very patient and took his time although it was closing time. Been there before and they fixed my glasses for free which I had purhased somewhere else. Go in and get a feel of the place. read more

This place is just okay. The actual optometry appointment and doctor gets 3 stars, the staff selling the actual glasses/contacts gets 2 stars. They'll get you in fast, you'll get a prescription that day and if you want contacts, you can typically walk out of the store with them, so in that sense the convenience is nice. They're not super professional, though, and they tried to pressure me into buying more contacts than I needed (I insisted multiple times that I only needed a 6 month supply). They'll do the job, barely, if you're in a pinch and need an appointment fast. Otherwise, take the time to look up an actual Optometrist and you'll get better service and be better taken care of. I'm still not certain they gave me the right prescription. read more

Never again will I buy anything from their service department. I spent nearly $400 on a pair Oakley semi-rimless frame with their Hi-Index lenses and after 5months of use, I dropped it today on tile from a distance less than shoulder height and the right lens chipped. Talk about bad quality, I bought a pair of lenses from Stein optometric 7+ years ago, and have been through so much abuse but are still are fine. People here are incompetent and care nothing but making a sale. The guy says to me. After first 3months, the entire frame & lenses have a half-off insurance. Which I will need to pay $200 for a new pair where the frame is still in mint condition. I just need the lenses replaced. I am done with this place, so should you be too. I only like Dr. Hsu and associates who do a great job in helping me with my prescription. read more

I have to echo the folks who state that Dr. Hsu is great, but the service department is lacking. They really are. While they are nice and seem to mean well, it appears to be a poorly run operation. I never got a call when the remaining half of my contacts order came in. Had to call and ask about it. Not a horrible problem, but not typical of good customer service. I will probably not be going back. read more

I had an exceptional experience at this location. Moses is exceptionally skilled at picking the most flattering frames for your face. He takes the time to explore every option for your insurance coverage to provide the most for your money. The service is above and beyond. read more

Binh Nguygen O.D., F.A.A.O. Is an awesome eye doctor. Who would have thought to find a great eye doctor inside a Target store in Burbank? She is so nice... So friendly... So knowledgable! I'm very pleased to say the least. Highly recommend Target Optical on Burbank on Empire. read more

I recently went in to get a new pair of glasses. The selection was decent as I wasn't expecting too fancy for Target. The staff was impeccable. They were kind, courteous, patient and worked well as a group. Both Moses and Ryan were so professional even though it was busy. Gaby called me to let me know my glasses were ready for pick up sooner than promised. Moses helped straighten out my previously purchased from Target glasses and made sure I had cases. They treat you very well here. I will definitely be returning to this Target Optical. The great crew makes the experience a joy. read more

Love this place, everybody is super professional, Isabell could not be kinder, she help me pick out the perfect frames, my experience was awesome I highly recommend Target Optical and Dr. Nguyen read more

Went in for eye exam for contact lens. Dr Nguyen is amazing! She is bubbly, thorough and efficient. I had no wait time at all and I came in on a Saturday. I would recommend making an appointment though. The glass service staff were also friendly. read more

Went to get glasses at target and was blown away by the customer service. Adrian helped me choose a pair of glasses that looked best for my weird face. I will be returning here when I lose or break my glasses. Ha! Remember to ask for Adrain, he is awesome. They also give a discount if you are a AAA member. read more

I recently moved to the area and really needed an eye exam as I was running out of contacts and had scratched my glasses. Anyways, decided to try Target Optical. I am so happy I did. Dr. Nguyen was great! So kind and helpful! Staff in the optical department was awesome. I started the week in dire need of both contacts and glasses and am ending the week with both on hand :) Glasses came in 2 days! Contacts in 3. Can't beat that - I'll always go there as long as I live in this area!! read more

Isabelle is amazing! She was very patient and kind when helping my son pick out his first pair of glasses. We had a great experience here.

I switched insurance and had to find a new optometrist, so I read online reviews. I'm so glad I did, because I discovered that Target has a great optometrist! I brought my own vintage frames, but they had such an amazing selection of frames themselves that I decided to not only get my new glasses, but to buy my first ever pair of subscription sunglasses (which were at a big discount). Dr. Amy Hsu was as good as any eye doctor I've ever seen and Wanda Walker, the optician who helped, was an absolute angel. Another Target success! Love it. read more

The staff at this Target Optical gets six (yes, SIX) stars. Everyone with whom I interacted at this Target Optical was extremely pleasant and helpful. A special shout-out to Clinton, who's always eager to go above and beyond; everything from repairing glasses he didn't even know I'd bought at Target (no charge!), to thoroughly going over every detail of my order(s) to make sure everything was just so. Great selection of eyeglasses and great prices, too. I deducted one star because, as other reviewers seem to have experienced, the eye exam I had here resulted in a prescription that wasn't quite right. The same thing happened last year, when I had an eye exam done at the Target Optical in Van Nuys. That said, the great customer service, selection, and prices will keep me coming back to this Target Optical. read more

Everyone, After my past experiences here I'd advise everyone to stay away from this place. They are scumbags and liars. Especially the people working at eye glasses sales area. They are very pushy and disrespectful! I went in thinking I would have a good experience and that the employees would be polite, but it was the complete opposite. I had gone for an eye exam first with their optometrist who is great by the way she really took the time to explain everything to me as a new patient. She was very understanding and I liked her a lot, but what I did not appreciate was when they sent me over to the sale area once my exam was done to talk about buying glasses. One of the sales people ANNA was so rude to me she kept rushing me and being impolite. At first she approached me asking if she could assist me with picking out glasses and I respectfully agreed to let her help me. So, we began looking but I didn't see anything I liked until she rushed to my side holding a pair of glasses and told me that they would look great on me. I tried them on and agreed that they looked good, so we talked pricing and I couldn't believe what I heard $500 dollars for a pair of fucking glasses! ANNA come on! That is way too expensive so I told her I'd come back another time just to get her off my back. Long story short just save your time and money and don't go anywhere near this joint. And if you decide to try it out don't go anywhere near ANNA she's the blond elder Armenian woman. I already reported her to the TARGET manager for disrespectful uncourteous customer service. After just a few visits I can honestly say I HATE her now. She definitely ruined my eye glass experience. read more

Target Optical nor the Optometrist office bothered to tell me they were not providers for my insurance. AFTER my exam I had to pay a hundred dollars and they told me all I had to do was submit a form to my insurance company and the insurance company would reimburse my out of pocket expenses. The doctor and Target Optical kept trying to pressure me to purchase contacts and glasses on the spot. I insisted I wanted to wait until I spoke to my insurance company before I paid another $300-400 out of pocket. Good thing I did. When I called my provider they told me Target Optical and their doctor's office were out of network and they'd only be reimbursing me $24 of the $100. I went back in and raised hell. Target Optical said it wasn't their problem because the doctor's office ran my card and the doctor's office said Target Optical should have made it clear prior to my exam that they didn't accept my insurance (they never mentioned it even when trying to get me to make additional purchases they knew my insurance would not be covering). After raising enough hell and having everyone stare at me the doctor's office agreed to refund me my money, but took my prescription so I couldn't it anywhere else to have it filled which, according to my friend who is a general manager of a optical store out of state, is illegal. At that point I just wanted my money back. I will not be returning to Target Optical of Burbank where they intentionally misled me. The sales associate even went as far to say she wasn't going to say anything until it was time to ring me up for my glasses and contact purchases, that thankfully, I didn't make. read more

I'm updating from 2 stars to a solid 1. I have been waiting for almost 2 months to receive a reimbursement check from my insurance company for my glasses. I called the company and said they never even received the information from Target Optical for my reimbursement. So I called the woman that assisted me when I was shopping for my glasses and she said that she didn't know what happened but it was "over looked" and never sent. Are...you...kidding...me? Use your judgment and avoid this place. read more

I highly recommend going to this location for any of your eye care needs primarily because of the spectacular service I received from one of their optometrists, Moses. When I unknowingly arrived 10 minutes after closing, he didn't hesitate one second to open up and help me order lenses for a pair of eye glasses. He was exceptionally knowledgeable and friendly. It's clear that Moses goes above and beyond for his customers. read more

Fantastic. To be honest, I wasn't expecting much either-- I worked for a great optometrist a few years ago and also had a separate, outstanding local practice that I adored. But without vision insurance and working inconvenient hours, I figured I couldn't be too picky. Chose Target because the hours are convenient for someone working long days in Entertainment, and wanting to get an appt in a relatively quick timespan. Not only was it for late evening (6:30) but they offered to take me that very day or the day following. Yes please! Dr. Binh was fabulous, very quick, efficient and positive. She did everything right, and embarrassingly enough, I should've been in to see her long ago! Had no idea my eyes had gotten so bad. She fitted me with a new pair of contacts immediately to try out and good Lord, it was like I was in my first pair of glasses, the contrast was so stark! Then let me tell you about Moses, who is a ROCKSTAR. What an employee they've got there. He's the Optician who helped me picked out the glasses, and let me tell you, helping me choose frames is basically a Herculean task because not only am I fussy but I've also got a face that doesn't do well in 98% of glasses. But I've decided to get a pair that I actually wanna wear outside, so that meant Moses was tasked with the responsibility of utterly honest fashion advice. And he was spot on. He was funny, chill, and honest-- which basically leads to the fact that, as I type this, I'm sitting in a new pair of glasses I look fabulous in. I've gotten COMPLIMENTS even. Because I wear them in public. Because they actually look pretty hip (now, now, youths-- that's right, I got a big-framed pair to identify with the "happenin" crowd). And I love them. Long story short: fair price, great hours/convenience, Dr. Bing is lovely, Moses is fantastic, and I'll be going back. :D read more

What a great place to get my glasses! I walked in one day, on my way to grocery shop before work and was on crunched time, so I wasn't sure if they'd be able to see me. They got me in and out super quick and they were so friendly! I was so thrilled with how helpful they are, as well. The woman there (I cant remember her name) was so sweet and helped me pick the frames that looked best for me and even explained the monster discount I was going to have! They have great sales and the customer service is spot on. I got my glasses in 2 days, they arrived on Christmas eve, which was perfect timing for my post-holiday traveling. I love this place and I am going back! read more

Wife and I came here to get her new prescription and glasses and Moses and Dr Nyugen were really awesome, friendly, and helpful! 100% recommend coming here. read more

Great place for glasses. My mother needed an eye exam and new glasses so I took her to Target Optical and was happy I did. Making an appointment was super easy even for a first time customer. For the day of the appointment, everything went very smoothly and quickly. After checking in and filing in a standard form/questionnaire, they took my mother to get her eye exam with Dr. Ngyuen who was super sweet with my mother and made her feel relaxed and comfortable. The exam was quite quick and immediately after, we decided to buy some glasses to have the newly made prescription filled. Everything is done in the front corner of the store (next to the pharmacy). The glasses selection is not huge but had more than enough to choose from for my mother. We were helped by both Clinton and Moses. Moses helped my mother find the perfect pair of glasses on a previous visit and Clinton helped us the day of the exam and glasses ordering. Both were super professional yet friendly and fun to talk with. The whole team was super and my mother is happy with her new set of glasses. read more

HIGHLY recommend not stepping foot in this place. The Dr. was great, but once you make your way over to pick out your glasses, just keep walking and tell them you are NOT interested in purchasing your glasses from them After reading all the reviews (which I did after I purchased my glasses...big mistake), I decided to make a follow up call. When I purchased them, I was told they would be ready anywhere between 7-1o business days. One day I tried calling for 15 minutes and no one picked up in the department. The next day I called and was on hold for more than 10 minutes, so I hung up. I called back right away and they finally answered. I asked if I could get an update on my glasses (wanted to make sure they were even ordered). After giving my name the girl gets back on the phone and says "I'm not sure when they will be ready". So I asked if she knew an approximate date and she replied "no". I then told her that on my paper it gave a specific date and wanted to see if they would still be ready at that time. She asked for my name (after already giving it to her), and was on hold for a couple more minutes. She got back on and said they will call me when they are ready. I asked if I could get a specific date and she then gave me the day after the expected due date. I am just really confused on how this place is still open after all having very similar stories. The customer service is pathetic and lack of communication is horrible. Spare yourself some time and stress and go elsewhere. read more

love my new glasses! target is the place to get them girlllss!

I saw Dr. Binh nguyen when I came in with my family last week. She was so awesome at examine my 3 years old daughter. She so knowledge, very patient, friendly to kids. Highly recommend this place. read more
