I just had my first appt with Dr. Azzrah Thobani and I can't believe how lovely the entire experience was. It started with the onboarding for a new patient, her team was so welcoming, thorough, and helpful. Then the appt felt super personalized and comfortable. The facility is beautiful, clean and modern. Afterwards, shopping for glasses was so easy! They really know their stuff and have a very thoughtful selection of modern frames. I look forward to coming back next year for my annual! 10/10 recommend :)

Dr. Thobani was great! She was running her practice short handed when I came in and it would’ve been easy to get overwhelmed, but she was still so patient and welcoming. I really appreciated that she gave her honest opinion on options and diagnosis, you can tell how much experience she brings. Other than that, Dr. Thobani was also just so pleasant and kind! I’d highly recommend Eye Care by Design.
I knew my vision had changed after a recent vision screening, so I did quite a bit of research to find an excellent optometrist and a clinic that carried a thoughtfully curated selection of eyewear. This clinic absolutely delivered! I recently completed my first exam with Dr. Thobani, and I couldn’t have been more pleased with the experience. She was kind, understanding, and incredibly down to earth. She confirmed what I had suspected… I did, in fact, need new glasses. One of the most enjoyable parts of the visit was selecting my new frames. The whole clinic was incredibly helpful in finding a pair that suited me, and I was able to leave the clinic that same day with my new glasses. Overall, I had a wonderful experience from start to finish. I’m very happy with my care and look forward to returning next year. ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐
Came to Dr Thobani because of her Google Reviews, so I’m here to write one of my own. My previous eye doctor was bought out by MyEyeDr and all bedside manner went out the window. I have had enough of the Private Equity owned eye doctors who see you as a number and spend all of 90 seconds talking to you then bother you with endless marketing texts calls and emails throughout the year. Their only interest is their bottom line, not the patients’ health/convenience/costs. Dr Thoboni is quite the opposite. It’s clear she takes time to understand her patients needs. I found that her staff was very friendly, welcoming, and helpful. The space was well marked, in a great location, and clean and well decorated. There was plenty of time to talk to the doctor and ask questions, but I was still in and out in 40 minutes, including trying on and ordering new glasses. Highly recommend Eye Care by Design and grateful I found them!
Finding an eye doctor you actually trust isn't easy, but Dr. Thobani at Eye Care By Design is exactly that. She was thorough and took the time to explain what she was seeing during the exam, which I really appreciated. The whole visit felt relaxed rather than rushed, and every question I had was answered clearly. The staff were friendly from the moment I walked in, and they helped me pick out frames too, which made the whole process a lot easier than it usually is. I left feeling confident in the care I received and would absolutely recommend Dr. Thobani and her team.
