    TSO called - 12:54

    My appointment was for 12:45 today. I had just parked my truck when my phone rang at 12:54. The lady on the phone called to tell me they have to reschedule my appointment due to me being more than 10 minutes late. I explained I had just parked and it was 12:54, that I still had 2 minutes before being over the 10 minute mark. She proceeded to tell me, I was late and they needed to reschedule. Screenshot of their call at 12:54. After we hung up, I decided to call back and tell them to take me off their list and delete my account. Well, after taking a half day from work for my eye exam, I guess I'll try and go to Walmart and see if they can help me.

    This is my third set of eyewear purchased through TSO Spring. I have them do my eye exam as well. For help with selecting frames this time I was assisted by Gabby who is an absolute blast. I recommend asking for her, but everyone on staff is very nice, knowledgeable, and helpful. Watch out for their "buy one, get one free" deals. Especially if you're looking to treat yourself to nicer frames. They do have lower priced frames--just tell them your budget and they will point you in the right direction. Highly recommend TSO Spring. Support your local business!

    Very rude people work here. Go elsewhere, many other options. Doctor is friendly and good, but the staff is not. 3rd bad experience.

    We had a last minute need for an eye exam and by chance my husband found Glimpse. I'm glad he did…read morebecause this was one of the best experiences I had at an optometrist. It has been hard to find one in the Houston area and I'm glad we found it. We came in for my husband's exam, but ended up getting a new set of glasses for my daughter. They had these cute glasses for kids with cat ears and since they were so great with my husband I decided to get her another pair of glasses. Dr Chen was knowledgeable, pleasant and I could tell he was focused on the customer experience. He took time to double check her current prescription and make sure everything was perfect instead of just rushing the process. There was also someone at the front desk that helped adjust my daughter's glasses and she was very helpful. She showed my kid how to properly take off her glasses and shared what kind of frames she should get next time so they do not slide down her face. I appreciated the time she took to do this. The office is in the Woodlands and I live in Cypress. Even though it is far, I will return for my own exam and glasses.

    I do not recommend Glimpse Eye Care based on my recent experience. I would give 0 stars if that…read morewere an option. First, I was charged an additional fee that was not covered by my insurance, but no one informed me about the extra charge beforehand or asked for my approval. In my experience, if there is an additional charge for a service that insurance does not cover, the patient should be informed in advance and given the opportunity to approve or decline the service. More concerningly, they took my glasses to measure the prescription. When my glasses were returned to me, I noticed a very noticeable scratch on the right lens and two lighter scratches on the left lens. I immediately pointed this out, but they denied that the damage had occurred while they were handling my glasses. Every time I went out of the house I cleaned my glasses and inspected them carefully, there were no scratches there before. For the first time in my nearly 40 years of wearing glasses, my glasses were scratched by an eye care provider. Although I ordered these glasses last year, they had been kept in their case because I was still wearing my other old glasses. I have only been wearing this pair for about two or three months, and they are still relatively new because I am a very careful person when it comes to my glasses. Because these are rimless glasses, I take extra care when handling and cleaning them. I paid approximately $400 out of pocket after insurance for these glasses, which have progressive, high-index 1.67 lenses. I'm very upset and saddened by how this situation was handled. I'm considering seeking help to determine what consumer or regulatory remedies may be available. I will not be returning to Glimpse Eye Care. They have lost my family's business.

    I think I spooked the nurse!…read more One of the front-end nurses--I know I'm a little awkward in public (social anxiety), so I come off a little high-strung. I was asking a question about something mid-conversation and she jumped a little. xD If she ever reads this, I am SO sorry! I say all of that to say that the experience at Dr. Nguyen's office was nothing short of amazing. The least you expect from a doctor's visit, especially for the first time, are A) a courteous staff, B) patience when it comes to any kind of reluctance with their gadgets, and C) a doctor who is willing to coach you all the way down to the decimal with your prescription. After being known for some of the best eyes in the family, Dr. Nguyen and her staff made me aware that I have astigmatism just like my late aunt. The process: the nurse led me to the testing area, where I looked at a graphic of a farmhouse inside a machine. Then we moved on to the "infamous" blower to test my eye pressure; this is when a puff of air is blown into one eye, and it wasn't anywhere near as bad or scary as people make it out to be. Next was the eye scan. They weren't doing dilations (drops) due to the pandemic and I was in too big of an emergency to get on a waiting list, as eye fatigue at the computer is what brought me in. So I took the $40 eye scan, which consists of you looking closely into a scope while a green light scans the back of your eye for problems. It's nothing like a harsh camera flash, but staring at a fully-lit laptop screen for a split second. The nurse took my family medical history and soon after, in came Dr. Nguyen. BEYOND hospitable, Dr. Nguyen had me cover each eye as I read the eye chart on the TV in the mirror (new-school!). I did pretty well in my right eye, but in my left...that glare I've noticed for the past while ended up being astigmatism. Tightening my mask around my nose to avoid fog, she mated me with the refractor to see what kinds of lenses I'll need. After answering any and every question I had about glasses, my vision and everything going forward, I paid in the front and EXCITEDLY went to Visionworks next door to try on styles for my first pair of prescription glasses. My takeaways are that I've needed glasses for a good minute and just didn't know it, and the eye fatigue from work at the computer was the final nail in the coffin. Overall Dr. Nguyen and her team were the consummate professionals and helped me a lot in this new phase of adulthood. I highly recommend her to everyone in the area, as well as the staff at Visionworks right next door since they have a really good selection. I actually can't wait to come back for a checkup.

    I normally do not like write review unless my experience is either super bad or super good…read more In this case, I had a great visit at Dr. Lara Nguyen office. I am former patience of her from her last location where she practice. I called the last location, and upon making my appointment I informed Dr. Lara N. was no longer there. Although, the office was nice enough to shared which company she was partnering up with, but location was not mention. I started my search. With a simple click and the magic of Google, Cypresswood Eye Care popped up. I immediately made my appointment with Dr. Lara Nguyen new office. The biggest reason I chose to stay and follow Dr. Lara Nguyen: her honesty, passion for her work, and genuinely care for the health of her patients. Scheduling: On time. Informative: Yes. Would I recommend to friend/family? Most definitely YES! Thank you.

At first it was that some of his students that would do my exams freeing up Dr. Charrier's time to see other patients. The office has had a number of staff changes and this last group leaves a lot to be desired.

Ugh When I tried to check out the girls at the desk had no idea how to operate their new computer system.. At first one said they had no record of my insurance, even tho I have been a patient there for 8 years. When I asked for a paper receipt they had no clue how to print one. I am sorry to say I think Dr. Charrier has lost his compassion for his patients and is trying to increase his income. So sad. .
