Karla prepared my glasses for free, and was extremely kind about it. She made sure I understood the repair was not guaranteed, and gave me a realistic idea of whether or not she could fix it. She ended up doing a perfect job and my glasses are completely back to normal. They are about $600 glasses and I was extremely worried. I’m so grateful for her and I will be coming back for glasses soon!!

I am in my early 50’s and this is the first time going to an eye doctor since I’ve always had very good vision until recently : / I have used readers the last few years, but I knew it was time to get my eyes checked and get the right type of reading glasses. The staff was super friendly and very helpful & fun helping me pick out just the right frames for my face! All of their equipment is state of the art and Dr. Lopez is so knowledgeable (and friendly!) and explained what was happening with my eyes in a way that was easy for me to understand. I also love that they are dog friendly! I would highly recommend this place !!
