Dr. Wu is excellen. he's thorough, explains what your eyes need, and always keeps you updated on any changes in your vision. The office staff is just as great: friendly, helpful, and willing to go the extra mile, even looking things up online if they don't have something in stock. I've been coming here for several years and have no plans to switch eye doctors. Thank you, Dr. Wu and team! keep up the amazing work! read more

Excellent doctor. Very patient. Works with you as long as it takes to get you your best vision.

I cannot say enough great things about this doctor. He is so gentle and thorough. He cares sooo much about giving you the correct prescription. He also was so concerned about some symptoms that I was having that he gave me a ten times more thorough retinal exam than the so-called specialist at the fancy office I was referred to. She was like wham bam thank you ma'am. And so tough and abrupt. Geez. Dr. Wu is so gentle and accomplishes far more. Made me appreciate him even more and I was already at 150%. Don't let the setting (Target) throw you off. You will get a top-notch exam by someone who cares. And if anyone is afraid of eye doctors, I believe they would be pleasantly surprised here. read more

I never thought that an eye doctor's office inside of a target could be so wonderful. I was a walk in and was helped very quickly. Melissa took the time to help me find the best deal on my contacts and glasses. Dr. Wu was attentive and heard my concerns after experiencing a very serious corneal ulcer 6 months ago. If you are looking for a team to attend to any optical need, this is it! My contacts arrived within 3 days and my glasses were ready after one week. Not to mention they are open on Sundays! Thanks to Dr. Wu and his amazing people read more

Do not come here for any vision needs. It is very sad that Dr. Wu has incompetent staff. I can see that others have had pleasant experiences with Dr. Wu and I'm sure he's a fine practitioner, but his staff needs some help. Dr. Wu practices inside of the Target Store at the Spectrum. I made an appointment online and submitted all of my insurance information with VBA (my provider). Prior to my appointment, I always confirm that the doctor is in network for my vision plan. Both Dr. Wu and Target are listed as in network. I also called and VBA sent me an email with my eligibility listed to take with me to the appointment. Today, on a Sunday, I received three phone calls from his staff. The first call was asking me if I'm sure that I don't have VSP. Yes, I'm positive, I've had this same plan with VBA for 7 years. I was told that they had never heard of my plan before. Ok...so do a quick google search and look them up and call them if you don't believe me. This is common sense folks. Then a call back to say they don't know how to submit my insurance. I've had multiple exams at other Target stores, can you by chance check my history or call another Target store and ask for help? Or better yet, call VBA and ask them for help since you are listed as a provider for them. Then another call back to tell me that Dr. Wu doesn't think he's a provider for VBA. I do a quick search on the VBA website to confirm what I was told last week on the phone. Again, both Target and Dr. Wu are listed as providers separately on the VBA website. Then Dr. Wu gets on the phone to tell me that he submitted to VBA to become a provider but never received a confirmation from them. Ok...so call VBA and iron this out with them, my appointment isn't until tomorrow late afternoon. He says that I am the first person to ever try to use VBA and they can't be expected to know how to submit for them. Ummmm. I'm the patient. how is this my responsibility? My responsibility is only to verify my eligibility and find an in-network doctor to visit. How can I be expected to know what codes or systems you need to use to submit something from your end? Call VBA people!! I ended up canceling my appointment. Not once was it ever offered to me to reschedule if they weren't able to get the insurance claim figured out before my appointment. Not once did they apologize for calling me three times on a Sunday. Not once did they say, "hey thanks for your help in figuring this out". Perhaps I should be grateful I didn't have an exam here after all. It sounds like his staff doesn't know what they are doing. Not sure if they are Target employees or if they work directly for him, but either way, time to get some new help. read more

Dr Wu was fantastic. Offering extended services, scheduling subsequent visits the following week to taking actual time in explaining literally everything. Unfortunately, the office staff is unwelcoming when you call on the phone. Staff member didn't start their name and I had to ask for it. Then immediately demanded why I was calling. Upon quickly explaining was told don't call is we will call you. Finally placed on hold for over fifteen (15) minutes only to be hung up on by the staff. I was initially told to call back after 3PM to see if the materials were delivered today in order for me to have them with me on my travels, tomorrow. Customers should be able to have an open dialogue. Unfortunately, Marlene failed to live up to the positive comments left by others for this location. This review seems consistent with previous comment regarding the staff. Look forward to improvements in his team. read more

Making this my very first review because my experience was just that great! Walked in spontaneously and am I glad I did. Dr. was incredibly patient (had tons of questions and some I repeatedly addressed, afraid I was being annoying but Dr. happily answered each one). Loved how he explained himself throughout the whole exam of what exactly he was doing, felt educated at the same time. Left completely comfortable and pleasantly surprised at how much I enjoyed my visit! Not to mention the optical side and the deals I got! Seriously, 2 pairs for under $200. I thought it was a joke. Winning! Another reason to love Target! read more

See all

Dr. Wu!! He's the man! I've gotten to know him for a long time now and he has definitely taken care for me. He puts you at ease when it comes to pretending and very well mannered. He takes his time to listen and best explains any concerns you might have. His expertise, compassion, and genuine interest in his patients is a gift. There's a reason he has a great reputation in our community. Highly recommend Dr. Wu to all! read more

Dr. Wu goes out of his way to make sure you get the correct prescription. He is very thoughtful and professional. The office has a friendly feel with a personal touch. Thanks Dr. Wu! read more

I've been seeing Dr. Wu for annual exams for several years, and find he is an excellent optometrist. He received his medical training from a top school, UC Berkeley, which shows in how he exams your eyes. He was the first doctor that I had seen that has a computerized system for testing different prescriptions for your vision. It's been pretty easy to get appointments with him, even during the December rush to use insurance benefits. He is part of the most popular insurance network, VSP. read more

He is an OK optometrist but be aware his office likes to SPAM his patients even after you ask him to stop.

Dr. Wu is very meticulous and will make sure all the tests are done perfect and accurate! Very knowledgeable and professional. Your eyes are in good hands! read more

Friendly, knowledgeable Doctor with Berkeley degree. Felt like I was in very good hands. He started that office two years ago. Would definitely recommend and go back. read more

Dr. Wu was exceptionally clear with me on all matters. He walked me through each step with detailed description of what was happening. He was great, honestly. read more

I was very pleased with my eye exam, time and care Dr. Wu took to answer questions as well as a thorough care to address all my concerns (I had been given a wrong prescription by another optometrist and I was not able to see well) Dr. Wu gave me the correct prescription and was so polite professional and simply the best! So lucky to find a good Doctor! Yay! read more

Dr. Wu was great! He seemed to know his stuff. He gave me and my son advice and didn't pressure us for anything. The visit didn't feel rushed but he also didn't waste my time. Setting up the appointment online was also quick and easy and my wife was able to do a little shopping while waiting. read more

He is wonderful! He cares about his patients and explain everything in detail. He is also so fast so you will not wait a longtime in-line.

I saw Dr. Wu for my annual eye exam and a contact lens fitting. I really enjoyed Dr. Wu's gent nature and professional "bedside manner". He was very informative and helped me select the best contacts for me and my lifestyle (daily vs. monthly). He was prompt, caring, and thoughtful. I highly recommend him and will be back be next year for my exam! read more

Got my second pair of glasses there. Dr. Wu and his staff were very helpful. My first pair of glasses is progressive lens, and the second pair is computer/reading glass. The price is very reasonable as well. read more

Dr.Wu is an amazing doctor! I've been going to optometrists annually since I was a kid to get glasses and now contact lens prescriptions. He is extremely thorough and is very kind. I've been seeing him for exams for the last 2 years and hes fantastic! His prescriptions are spot on and I've never had any issues with my prescription contacts or glasses. He also has all the up to date equipment in his office. I highly recommend opting in for the optomap during your exam it's way more convenient then traditional dilation for your eyes. Overall, Dr.Wu is the best!!! I would recommend him to anyone! read more

I don't really have high expectations when it comes to optometrists and that's just because the one's I've been seeing don't do a great job. My contacts were still blurry and my glasses didn't fit well even though they weren't cheap. I'm really glad I decided to get my eye exam this year with Dr. Wu. Apparently I came at a good time because he just opened his practice in the Target at Irvine Spectrum and I happened to be hanging out there that weekend. He's super approachable, pleasant, and knowledgeable. I had so many questions about contacts and my dry eyes and astigmatism and I felt like I learned so much from him. I think the best part is that he took his time with me unlike my previous experiences with other optometrists. Not to mention I got an unbelievably good deal on my current frames! They have some kinda promo going on for the grand opening. Anyway, thanks for a great experience! read more

Dr. Wu was amazing!!! I would definitely recommend. He was very patient with my daughter teaching her how to put and take out her contact lens. read more

Dr. Wu explains everything clearly and patiently goes through each section of the eye examination. He is a kind and thorough doctor. I highly recommend him. read more

Great experience and help from Dr. Wu after an eye injury from basketball. On a Sunday I might add. Thank you

I had a great experience getting my eye exam with Dr. Wu. He took his time and didn't rush the appointment at all. Very friendly girl working at the front desk too! Will come back here for sure. read more

I have been to Dr Wu twice and have brought my kids as well (ages 15 and 12) and each time, have always appreciated his mannerisms and his professionalism. The best part is that you can usually schedule appointments last minute and he has always been genuine in his feedback on what is best for us. Highly recommended! read more

Dr Wu is an outstanding doctor with great personality he helped me get my contact lenses and did a check on both eyes, their receptionist Dennis is super friendly and nice she took the time to train me on how to put the lenses. PS they should change the clinic name from Optical to Changing people's lives. read more

Dr. Wu was extremely thorough and gentle during the eye exam. I never had an optometrist take the time and care to truly listen or inspect my eyes, which I appreciate since I have always had very sensitive eyes. I have very bad eyesight and I was getting headaches from my previous rx and surprisingly, he adjusted my rx to something less strong but it made my vision more clear and also relieved a lot of eye stress. I also would like to mention I was his last patient that day, and both he and the associate helping me with my order were not rushing the least bit. read more

Had my 1st appointment with him. He knows his stuff. Very knowledgeable, walks you through everything. Very thorough in his explanations. Takes the extra steps in examining everything. Just by taking an extra image we eliminated the chances of Glaucoma that an another Dr. had diagnosed me with 2 years ago! Definitely not going anywhere else Dr. Wu. read more

Highly recommend Dr wu, very thorough and detail exam! I def will give full stars,with the bonus of super friendly and knowledgable staff and what's more,never know they're price friendly! read more

I went for a contact fitting today, and had a great experience. People there are friendly and Dr. Wu is experienced. Definitely recommend it! read more

Dr wu was very welcoming and gave a warm presence when i walked in. He greeted me at the door and answered each and every question with thorough detail. Never been more comfortable during an exam, not to mention the professionalism of the manager princess who right away will brighten your day. needless to say i will be back here for my next exam. read more

I highly recommend Thomas Wu! He is very thorough, knowledgeable and just a nice person. Location is great....Target!

Stumbled upon this location while shopping at the spectrum and the staff and Dr were so friendly I decided to have my son get his eye exam. They took my husbands insurance, VSP and it was so easy! The doctor was so great, he took his time with my son and explained everything he was doing. The doctor equipment was very up to date. The staff was great as well, they had a lot of frames to choose from! We ended up with a kids Ray Ban frame and I was able to pay the difference using my Target Debit card (yes, this is located INSIDE the Target!) so I was able to save an additional 5%! Definitely would recommend anyone to give them a try! Thanks Dr Wu and Target Optical! read more

Dr. Wu was very patient, nice, and professional in conducting eye exam. And he also explained all the questions I had over my results in very straight forward and crystal-clear details. I'm very happy and satisfied with both Dr. Wu and Target Optical. read more

This was my first time going to Dr. Wu's office. I'm very happy with the services I received. Dr. Wu took time to explain everything and he doesn't rush you out of his office. He's very ethical and knowledgeable. He's the best Dr. out there. I will recommend to others! read more

Great customer service & overall experience is always a plus. Second or third visit and am definitely coming back.

I had a great experience today. As I walked in, the staff greeted me and explained different promotion around the store. I had an appointment at 12pm and it did not take that long to see the doctor. Dr. Wu explained everything he did and he took his time during the eye exam which made me feel like he is very detailed and careful. He answered all my questions and concerns. He seems very knowledgable and professional. I highly recommend this place to everyone. There was a wide selections of frame to choose from which is a plus. Unfortunately, my insurance only allowed me to get an exam this year. So next year, I am most definitely returning to this location for an eye exam and a new pair of glasses. See you next year, Dr. Wu! read more

Dr. Wu was very nice and thorough in his exam. He took the time to explain his findings and gave me options for me to choose. The office assistant Denise was wonderful! Very professional and caring. I would recommend this location for sure! They also had good selection of frames to choose from. Thanks! read more

Dr. Wu, he is so nice and personable. He did a very thorough eye exam, all went well.
