This is the second time this location has messed me over. The first time was the start of COVID so I thought a second chance was in order.
This go around, they rendered an $800 purchase effectively useless for me. As a contractor doing environmental remediation on military sites, I'm required to have rather expensive safety glasses ($629.10 on my invoice) to wear. Part of that was anti reflective which I got with a Sapphire tint. I can't say I can make out the tint (picture attached) and I assure you that the lack of tint makes them a safety hazard.
To put this in perspective, imagine if you used your microwave without the door. You could turn it on and hope that the microwaves don't affect anything else. Would you risk it? You could keep your microwave outside on the driveway to the microwaves mostly just hit open air and concrete. Ideally you would want a microwave to be in the kitchen...but you can't because no door!
So thanks for wasting my time and my money.Helpful 0Thanks 0Love this 0Oh no 0 - Susan M.SoMa, San Francisco, CA02Apr 18, 2023

The actual eye doctors in the store are good. If you go here to get a prescription your experience should be satisfactory. The actual store itself where you might buy the actual glasses or contacts however is not good. The store is completely separate from the doctors so the doctors have no say so on how the store sells to you. Over the past three years I have had two very disappointing experiences with the store. The prices are high, the turnaround is quite slow and the customer service is very limited. They are courteous which is nice but overall they are not competitive or efficient or accommodating. It seems like repeat business is not their goal.

Everyone here is so nice. Customer service at its finest does not cover it. They make you feel so welcome and are extreme helpful. They went above and beyond. Answered all my questions and have an amazing selection on top of that!

it was my first eye exam ever, and everyone here made the environment super welcoming. they were on it like white on rice-they had all of my information ready so i didn't have to stress and find out how to get my insurance info. explained what they were going to do and answered all of my questions. Dr.Lopez and Tina(sorry if i misheard your name) helped me not only find the perfect frame but made sure i looked good wearing my prescription. i 10 out of 10 would recommend to a friend.

Went in for an eye exam and had the best experience & care I've ever had. Very professional, courteous, knowledgeable, and friendly staff. Dr. Wolff helped me out with my eye exam and she was awesome. The entire staff made my visit truly exceptional!

Today was my first visit. I used my last pair of contacts over the weekend so I decided to find someplace near my house that uses my VSP. I looked them up on the VSP site and called at 9 this morning. They were able to get me in at 1pm. Even though I got there at 1:10pm, they called me right back to get started. The office is nicely decorated and they had a good selection of reading material. The support staff was efficient and professional and Dr. Wolff was extremely nice and personable. My exam was very thorough, they went over my benefits clearly, and they even allowed my son to look for new frames even though he didn't have an appointment. I will definitely be coming back here for my future eye care appointments.

I have been going to Dr. Ikeda for about 20 years, which sounds crazy since I'm only in my late 20's, but he is amazing. He is incredibly personable, friendly, knowledgeable, and best of all he answers whatever questions I have and explains everything in terms one can understand. I was born with an eye condition and I was lucky enough to find him in my mother's eye doctor's office (she used to see Dr. Cox). Ikeda knew a lot about the condition and has kept up on the advances of how to help me since. His office is modern and the staff are very helpful. I trust him so completely that although I have vision insurance which he is not covered by, I still go to him.
Side note: my mom and my sister both go to him as well. My mother switched doctors when she moved behind the orange curtain, saw one for a few years, had bad experiences, switched back and now drives the 45 mile trek out here to see him. He knows his stuff.Helpful 3Thanks 0Love this 2Oh no 0 - Daniel G.San Pedro, CA28524May 5, 2014
This is not for the eye exam but for the frames selection portion. I brought my prescription from Kaiser here with my VSP insurance. The reception staff was very polite and professional. Manny helped me to pick out frames and explain my coverage. Very helpful and patient not like the individual at the other place I rated here on Yelp. I was running late and he still helped me and was not bothered at all. I am so glad I came here ..........very pleased.
Very professional staff and pleasant.Helpful 0Thanks 0Love this 0Oh no 0
