A top-notch independent optometrist/ eyewear establishment that you should know about. Elaine Chu gives a superb refraction/eye exam, and Oleg is a wizard at crafting lenses for your eyeglasses. Highest possible recommendation. And, make your appointment directly with them rather than through ZocDoc, which charges them an inordinately large fee.

PLEASE AVOID! This place is such a scam, I’m shocked they’re still in business. Charged a lot of money just to try contact lenses that I voiced discomfort with at the practice. Then tried to charge even more money again when I wanted a different prescription because of that discomfort. AND then I asked for the prescription and they sent the WRONG prescription. Ordered elsewhere because this place already rubbed me the wrong way and then realized it was the wrong prescription. Lost that money and then called because they got the prescription wrong (they sent two conflicting prescriptions). They did not care at all. I’m serious, this might be my worst experience with any business. Please avoid like the plague, I seriously regret ever coming to this practice. I lost so much money and time 🙁

Luckily someone cancelled and they were able to squeeze me in and stupid me for not scheduling my exam sooner. But I needed to use up my vision benefits before they expired at the end of the year. The staff is consistently great, especially Yolanda. They always let me know when there are rebates on my contacts. Dr. Chu is so knowledgeable and super friendly. Overall, I’ve been happy every time I have needed an eye exam, contacts or glasses. Prices are fair considering this is an in person business and not some online big box retailer. I’m all for supporting local businesses and have been a loyal customer for over 10 years. Oh, and shout out to Oleg for always fitting my glasses so they’re not falling off my face throughout the day.

I came in Christmas Eve and the staff was amazing. Had an appointment with the friendly/accommodating doctor focused on making my glasses/comtacts perfect for my work needs. The entire staff was cheerful and helpful. I got a new pair of glasses ordered & walked out the door with contacts. Over-all the best doctor/client experience I’ve ever had. I’ll see them soon again just to stay focused.

I’ve been coming here for years and Dr. Chu and the staff are wonderful. The exam is always thorough and thoughtful, the staff are quick, and my lenses and glasses are always available in a timely manner.

Shop local. You won’t be disappointed.

I’ve been coming here for about 12 years. It’s always such a nice experience. Frank and his staff are so welcoming and kind. They are informative and educated in eye testing and eye wear. Dr Chu is amazing!! She will correct any eye issues you have in the most pleasant and patient manner and all while understanding other medical issues with no judgements. They are so reasonably priced and they have been here forever!! They are truly local. Why would you ever chose to go to chain when you can experience the local vibe at an amazing price right here.

While doctor Chu is nice, the office doesn’t have it together. Last year I didn’t hear from them for 3 weeks after placing my glasses order and when I called they let me know it was ready. How long had they been done This year I scheduled on their app and they called me on the day of the appointment saying I don’t have an appointment but I could come in an hour, not even an apology for the mixup! Taking my business elsewhere.
