I’m extremely disappointed with my experience here. I initially had a great impression of the office. The optometrist was very thorough, took his time with my exam, explained everything clearly, and I genuinely thought he was great. Unfortunately, everything involving my glasses afterward was a completely different experience. I brought in a pair of Ray-Ban frames that I had worn for almost four years to have new prescription lenses put in. The frames were still in decent condition and fit me perfectly. About a month later, I received them back and the new lenses somehow had more scratches than my four-year-old lenses. I called and was polite about the issue and had my 18-year-old sister drop them off for me. The employee she dealt with was extremely rude to her, raised her voice, and blamed us for the damage. After several more weeks and multiple calls, including times when they didn’t seem to know where my glasses even were, I finally got them back again. Now the frame is bowed outward and no longer fits my head correctly, and there are small cracks/chips in the lenses that were absolutely not there before. At this point, I put them back in the case and will be going somewhere else. I rely on my glasses every day for medical school, so being without a properly fitting pair for this long has been incredibly frustrating. I really liked the doctor, but the handling of my glasses, communication, and treatment of my younger sister were unacceptable.

This place is a hidden gem in Dana Point. From the outside, it’s unassuming, but inside, it’s bright, clean, and has a charming beachy vibe. My eye exam was thorough, and Dr. Wang took the time to answer all my questions with patience and care. Brady and Gigi were both incredibly helpful, making the whole process smooth and enjoyable. When it came time to pick out glasses, Gigi went above and beyond—she pulled out over 20 pairs to help me find the perfect fit and truly wanted me to be happy with my choice. From start to finish, it was a great experience!
A screw fell out of my Ray-Ban sunglasses, causing the lens to pop out. I stopped by Advanced Eyecare, where I’d previously purchased prescription glasses, and they fixed them right away—at no charge. Fast, friendly service, and a genuinely kind gesture. Forever grateful!
I have never experienced an optometry appointment with such a holistic approach! The doctor did various tests that I have never experienced at other optometrists before and helped me understand why I was having light sensitivity and pain in my eye. He took into consideration the recent medications I had started and perimenopause. He gave me a few options for how to move forward, explaining all the details including costs, side effects, and how long something would take to have an effect. I am incredibly thankful to have come here and already experiencing relief with the treatment plan. He was also very reasonable financially and offered a discount when paying cash. I would highly recommend!
Most thorough eye exam I have had in 10 years. Wonderful vibes and customer service from front office to Dr. Petersen! Prices are very reasonable- especially with the level of service provided. Easy check in and check out.
