Went there for a minor repair to my glasses - i was expecting it to take a couple of days to return and pricey. The service was fantastic - they repaired it immediately and were very reasonably priced. They also do eye checkups and have a good variety of eyeglass frames available.If you’re looking for a good place to get your next checkup or new glasses - I’d highly recommend this store. I know I’ll be going there for all my needs!
Came in for first pair of prescription glasses. Kind, helpful staff and great service!
Great people and service! Went without an appointment and they helped me out fast! Great service!!
Alex and Justin were both great. Came here to get some quick repairs for multiple glasses and they went above and beyond. 10/10 recommend.
Absolutely amazing service. Glasses were ready in 2 days! Justin especially helped out with adjusting our glasses at no cost. Very friendly staff and great service . Cannot recommend enough .
I long over due review. The service here was 10/10, came here during work for a quick eye exam. Justin and Alex were super helpful, Justin in particular helped me thoroughly choose the right pair of glasses that would help fit my face. I know I wasnt the most decisive and he was helpful throughout the whole process. I had such a good experience I brought my mom there a few days later and she loved the service as well. They take the time to make sure everything is quality and explained things very well when I had questions. If you are looking for a place to get glasses and have people care about you as a customer I would definitely recommend this place!
Amazing customer service and great variety of frames. One of the safest services I’ve ever received. Definitely recommend this store!
Just came back from Site for Sore Eyes in San Mateo to get two vintage frames that I have adjusted, because the original fit was too tight on my face. I saw Justin, and the level of service was outstanding! He and the other personnel were nice, knowledgeable and most importantly took extreme care of my frames. They adjusted them perfectly to fit my face without jeopardizing the integrity of the frames! Thank you guys so much!
Got my first pair of glasses, today, the Site for Sole Eyes team was fantastic. They walked me through everything and made it easy
Excellent customer service and quality eyewear at Site for Sore Eyes.Alex, Justin and Dr. Lin are all professional, knowledgeable and just really nice people.They are always welcoming and helpful, and I have been a very satisfied customer for 8 years.Justin even repaired sunglasses with charge that I had purchased 10 years ago from another store.A great place to go for your eye care and eye wear.
Best place Ive been to hands down! Dr Lin and the front desk receptionist are awesome. Got a same-day appointment!So knowledgable and helped me with insurance as well. Not only is she extremely considerate, it is clear she has a lot of experience. And, if you have any requests, she listens and accommodates.
Staff was extremely helpful and fixed my FOR FREE! Thank you!
I had a fantastic experience here today at the San Mateo location. I chose this store because they open more days than others in the area currently. A+ service by Dr. Lin and Justin. Got my glasses within half an hour of completing the eye exam. They also have thorough COVID protocols in place. The store feels clean and safe.
Went in today to get glasses fixed and Justin was so nice and fixed my bent frame in no time. He couldnt have been nicer. Would totally recommend!
I had an amazing experience at this location. The customer service was truly exceptional. They went above and beyond to help me find the perfect frames and worked hard to help me get the best deal. I will only be buying glasses from this business!
People there are super kind and very supportive. Highly recommend.
Dropped by needing a quick glasses repair. I broke the string holding my lense in. They fixed it quickly and were very welcoming. Will be back!
Called and got an appt in two days. The front desk gentleman Justin was v nice and helpful on the phone and when I came in for my visit. Doctor Lin was also so great and knowledgable, and helped me put some of my worries at ease. Definitely recommend a visit for folks looking for a new spot.
As soon as I walked in justin help me out with my eye check-up. They are so nice and really try their best to get you the best price. There are so many beautiful colorful options for the glasses frames! I always end up finding a perfect frame for me. I highly recommend sight for sore eyes.
So glad I found site for sore eyes! Staff was friendly and helped me get exactly what I needed. I especially liked how everything was explained carefully and without rushing. Walked out happy 😊
Highly recommend them. Very professional people and services.
Walked in and got my nose pads fixed! Excellent and friendly service! Thanks!
We came down from San Bruno to the San Mateo location, because we saw the great reviews on Google. Did not disappoint!Got 3-people eye exams, 2 new pair of glasses each, and trial contacts to confirm if they are the right fit/power for one of us. The team was friendly and professional.When I asked for feedback on a stack of glasses, Alex gave me great feedback on which looked best and why.Would highly recommend this place if you need help!Also know that you can schedule your eye exam online if you need to, or at the very least check to see if you’re likely to get in as a walk in on a given day.Thanks so much for your care and attention, Alex and staff. Keep up the great work!
I walked in and was greeted immediately! Very friendly and helpful. Justin help me and called my insurance to see what all was covered. He was extremely patient and polite. I came in with a pair of glasses that I had stepped on LOL and he straightened them up for me. Will be ok until my new ones come in. Super grateful I was able to walk in and get help immediately. My husband will go there for sure on Saturday to pick out some new glasses. Highly recommended this location:) Thank you Justin!
These guys are really nice and genuine! All the best and happy holidays!!
Dr. Lin is super nice, and the guys are super friendly and helpful.
Great place to get glasses! Justin was very helpful and able to help me get set up within the same day. Good range of selection and good service 👌
Justin is helpful regarding frames, lenses and insurance. Doctor Lin is very nice and knowledgeable and accepts walk in eye exams which saves a lot of trouble of trying to make appointments. Although they are considered partially out of network for VSP, they do match in network due to competition. 100% recommended to everyone who needs glasses and contact lenses.
Justin and Alex have been very helpful I’ve got the perfect glasses!! Thank you soo much!
I highly recommend Site for Sore Eyes for your eye doctor needs. Justin and Dr. Lin. were professional, quick, and very informative. My eyes are sensitive and I have had some issues with computer eye strain, so I am grateful that Dr. Lin was able to make some reasonably priced recommendations!
Perfect attending, Justin was such a sweetheart and gave us really good customer service. Walked us through a wide variety of frames to choose from. They always have great promotions. Happy with the glasses I got! Totally recommend it!!
The customer service here is FANTASTIC!Alex, who I believe is the owner, was so kind and helpful. After he helped me the first time, I noticed my prescription was a little off. My optometrist prescribed me the incorrect strength of lens, so I had to go back and get me eyes reexamined. I called ahead of time to see what the exchange policy would be like and Alex told me to just bring everything in once I was ready. I took my new prescription in right after my appointment and Alex literally had everything changed out and ready in two hours. During this whole process, Alex was nothing but patient, helpful, and kind. He works everyday and is constantly doing something which to me means he takes pride in his work. I cant imagine anyone leaving here disappointed with the variety of glasses and service this place has to offer.
Exam was quick and efficient. Great lens selection. Overall a great experience. Would definitely come back.
Very impressed. My driving glasses broke yesterday, 2 days before I am due to make a 9 hour drive. My eyes get super tired without my glasses and I get sleepy at the wheel, not good. Called Site for Sore Eyes in San Mateo yesterday at 4pm in a bit of a panic and Justin could not have been more helpful. It is 6:30 and I have new glasses ready for my drive. I dealt with Justin from start to finish and I will be coming back and recommending this store to others.
Nice selection, knowledgeable and friendly staff. They helped me break down the additional features of the glasses and I ended up with a great pair of glasses by the end of it.Took them less than 30 mins to get it ready!
Nice selection of frames and deals, and an easy eye exam with no waits. I highly recommend it if youre looking for a new set of glasses.Justin was really helpful and patient, and sorted through my insurance easily to get the best value!
Love this location. The customer service here is great! I always get more than expected when I go in. Both my wife and I have purchased glasses here and had unquestioning help with adjustments and repairs. Alex and his team are on top of it.I recently went to a Site for Sore Eyes in SF across the street from my office when I had an issue with my frames. They said they couldnt do anything for me and Id have to buy another pair. I went to San Mateo SFSE and they took care of my issue in 10 minutes.The optometrist at this location, Dr. Lin, is awesome, too.
Life savers! While on travel my contact lens became damaged. These kind folks were able to provide me a sample lens to get me by until I made it home. Thank you for the great service
I really appreciate the excellent customer service and follow through. The employees are friendly, knowledgeable and helpful. thank you for helping me today Adam!
This review is specifically for Justin. I was very impressed with his customer service. We were in search for a specific frame and Justin couldn’t have been more helpful. He texted me pictures of the frame in different colors since the one we were looking for had been discontinued. The whole process was quick and easy. When he said he would call me back with updates he did just that! Thank you for all your assistance Justin! Two thumbs up.
Great service and very thorough exam with Dr.Lin. Justin is welcoming and was fabulous with rushing my order at 5:45pm in order to receive next day plus provided info for all applicable discounts. Refreshing to see and receive above and beyond service. Thank you Team!
SF location is closed and really needed to get an exam as my prescription expired and I need new contacts. It was easy to schedule an appointment, staff was friendly and the Dr. has great bedside manner.
Justin was amazing to work with - very knowledgeable, efficient and so pleasant to help out with their good selection of frames, lenses options and insurance coverage. Thank you for your outstanding service and will definitely be back!
Good service!! Was able to accommodate a same day appointment. Very knowledgeable.
Amazing prices with amazing deals! Never had a problem and Ive gotten over 5 pairs of glasses there. Super efficient!
Justin was super helpful - went above and beyond to understand my needs and provide A+ service. Thank you!!
Awesome customer service, justin was the one who helped super helpful!!
Excellent customer services and good selection of frames. The price of glasses is decent.
Ive been going to Site For Sore Eyes for a few years now and everytime I go in for a checkup the experience is great! Dr Lin and team are courteous and go above and beyond to ensure my glasses fit perfectly everytime.
I have never had an eye doctor be so thorough and help me out so much with my contacts before. I started needing a prescription for distance and when reading. When I wore the lenses for distance though I could not read my phone. I also have a stigmatism in one eye that needs correction but not the other. I ended up choosing one brand of lenses for one eye and another lens brand for the other. I also was recommended to try wearing a lens for distance only in my dominant eye. Now if I am going hiking, skiing, or other distance activities I wear both lenses for distance and if I am doing groceries, shopping or running errands I just wear one lens in my dominant eye so that I can still read. The doctor and staff were very patient and determined to get me a solution that worked and provided comfort and great vision! So happy and thankful!
Good and fast service, Jastin is so freindly and helpful. The place is very organized and clean. I highly recommend it.
Justin was great in helping me find custom readers that fit my Asian profile. He was friendly and never pushed to sell. Thanks, Justin!
Omg. Alex is amazing. He made my glasses in 15 minutes!! They have such a good selection and amazing service.
They fixed my broken glasses and now it is tight and clear! They are sooooo kind and nice, definitely a great place to go!
I wear contact lenses almost all the time, and just needed an inexpensive pair of backup glasses. I always dread getting glasses - I usually feel like Im getting ripped off and overpaying for something I dont really want or use much. Here, I was listened to, got what I wanted at a really great price and was in and out of there quickly! The glasses were ready in just a few days, were done right and I was on my way - thanks!
I understand this place was once owned by a different party, but as of August 2015 I have to tell you that this is the single best optometric shop I have ever been to. The exam I had was so thorough. I was getting work glasses, and Dr Woo actually set up a computer at the right height and distance and put sample glasses on me to make sure that they were right for was I personally needed them for. I have been going to optometrists for a very long time, and nobody has ever been that thorough before. The prices on the frames are excellent and they have a good variety. But the kicker was this week when I took a pair of my son-in-laws glasses in to get them repaired. They need to be sent out and it will take a week, and because he does not have a spare pair of glasses, they actually hunted down another frame his lenses fit into and gave us those to use as a loaner pair until his can be fixed. There are not enough good things I can say about this place. It is the best.
Great location decently priced fast service
Justin was very helpful and assisted us with getting the perfect lense.
No wait time and good service. Justin is excellent at customer service and guides for variety and helps you save.
Excellent customer services and you will get your lens in minutes
This is the best place to get an eyeglasses. They made me my glasses in 20 mins while other optometrists said its gonna take 2 weeks.
Knowledgeable and helpful employees, low wait times, and good service.
Excellent attention. Very high Recommend..!!
Great service, super friendly!
Love the treatment . Friendly and fast service
Great customer service always polite and professional
Very friendly and convenient!
They gave great deal
Incredibly friendly and helpful staff!
I always liked this place and still do. Keep it up!!!
Horrible, horrible, horrible place. Run by an unpleasant, threatening crook. Stocked with cheap POS frames and sub-standard lenses. Hours are never consistent, store is dirty, and prices are outrageous. Avoid this place at all costs.
Optometrist Dr Linh is great
Great service!
