TLDR: fast appointment scheduling, informative doctor, good service I’ve always had to wait months to get an eye doctor. After moving to Philly, I finally had the opportunity to get some contact lenses for myself (thank you, insurance). As an eye glass wearer for 12 years, I’ve always feared using contacts and touching my eyes for it. I wanted to take the plunge into contacts and found that my insurance is accepted here. Expecting about a few months waiting time for an appointment, I walked in to schedule an appointment with the receptionist. She was quite nice and I didn’t have any issues with scheduling whatsoever. I was quite surprised that I only had to wait a few days for the doctor to see me. My appointment was scheduled and I was called a day before to remind me of my appointment. On the day, the appointment with the doctor was pretty straightforward. Routine eye exam along with contact lens fitting. Despite my fear of using contacts, the doctor assured me and trained me on how to properly apply the contacts. She even showed me how she did it herself. Overall, I had a great experience!

Hand down the best optometry service I have experienced! The prescription is spot-on, and my new glasses are extremely comfortable . From start to finish to finish, the care was exceptional. A truly professional and customer-focused team.5 stars!

I was a little skeptical initially because of all the negative reviews, but I had such a wonderful experience when I visited them last week. The front desk was very helpful and professional, and Dr. Xu was super knowledgeable and caring - she took the time to confirm my prescription. She even took the time to educate me on signs and symptoms of retina detachment because of my high prescription! My new glasses are perfect and the price is very reasonable. This is definitely one of the better, if not the best, eye exam experiences. I'd definitely recommend this place to everyone.

Fantastic eye exam experience here!The optometrist was extremely professsional and patient, taking the time to conduct a thorough check up.They gave me great lens recommendations based on my daily screen time. My new glasses provide crystal-clear vision with zero dizziness-highly recommended!

If i could give this place a 0 star I would. Do not go to this bs place. They are taking over a month to get my glasses ready and I needed it for a very important event. Now I have no glasses because of their mistake. Seriously, I have never seen such unprofessional behavior in my life. It shouldn’t be taking over a month to get my frames done. Never going to this place again. And neither should you
