LOOK NO FURTHER! Dr. Rice and his staff are the best! From the minute you walk in the door, you feel like one of the family. Not only are the front desk ladies welcoming, but they are now prepping patients on new state-of-the-art equipment. Gus is always a fantastic audience on the best look for glasses and fittings. And last, but certainly not least, Dr. Rice is patient, kind and knowledgeable. I've been a patient for years and on my annual visit, it always feel like I saw everyone just yesterday. Look no further for a qualified doctor and staff, because they are Dr. Rice and his staff!

I've been seeing Dr. Rice for a couple of years now. Even though I recently moved to San Diego, I will still be coming back to see him when it's time for my exam. First, EVERYBODY in the office is an absolute pleasure to speak to. They make you feel welcomed and not like a total stranger. Second, Dr Rice is very thorough and takes the times to explain everything and answer your questions. He saw me when I was blind as a bat and then made the referral and continued to care for my eyes when I had lasik done. I cannot recommend him and his team enough!
Absolute BEST EVER Dr.'s & Staff on the planet. Also the most professional, considerate, knowledgeable and helpful. Dr. Rice is the only Optometrist that you will ever need. Dr. Vazagov is wonderful as well. And Gus....oh Gus just rocks! I miss all of you immensely but have moved very far away from Orange County. I am fortunate to have found another very qualified office, but your's will forever be my favorite. Love and miss you guy's!!
Dr. Rice's office does a great job. The whole family has been coming here for years. Great front office staff, experienced Optometrists and wide selection of frames. Galoust the Optician really knows his stuff and has always been helpful for both fittings and repairs. Highly recommended!
Have been going here for the last 9 years. They are always welcoming, honest, and have decent prices. The variety of frames they carry is overwhelming! They provide exceptional customer service always. As long as I am living in Southern California, I will continue to come here!
