Very disappointed with the service. From the time I arrived for my appointment, the entire process took approximately 2.5 hours. This was a couple of months ago, and when I finally got around to placing my order for contacts and glasses from that appointment, that process still took over an hour. I arrived at 1:15 PM and was asked to wait before finally providing my information around 1:30 PM. I then waited nearly an hour. I understand there were other customers ahead of me, and I wasn’t expecting special treatment or to skip the line. However, it would have been nice to see customers assisted in the order they checked in with the receptionist. While waiting to place my order, I watched multiple other customers complete their orders before I was helped. By the time I left, it was already 30 minutes past closing (2:30) and my order had still not been completed. Ordering contacts and glasses should not take over an hour, especially when I already knew exactly which frames, lenses, and add-ons I wanted. The staff was friendly, but the overall process showed very little respect for customers’ time. There is significant room for improvement in efficiency and customer service. Unfortunately, I will be taking my business elsewhere.

I feel very disappointed with this examination. In fact, I voluntarily came to this optical store for an eye check and hoped to get new glasses afterward. I told the doctor about my problems and how I perceive things with my vision, but the doctor showed disbelief and skepticism. I was shocked—why would I lie about my vision? I came for the examination precisely to find out the problems with my eyes, but the doctor just sent me to the front desk staff, and then it was over. I am very dissatisfied with this service!
Wanted to write this review specifically for Julisa's amazing customer service! She goes above and beyond to ensure that customers feel appreciated and well taken care of. Her customer service in incredible, her knowledge is great, as well as the quality of her engagement and kindness. I was so happy that I also brought my husband.
Very polite and easy to communicate with regarding appointments and insurance. My whole family uses TSO in Magnolia.
The people who work there are all lovely. The location is convenient. The selection of frames are really, really nice... I found two that I love. Dr. Jew was very nice. I am glad I found this place. My only negative is for their website for entering your own patient info. Got to page 8 three different times, when it froze and failed to submit each time. Very annoying and time-wasting. Then had to do it all over again in their office on their tablet ..it was a different form (was missing the previous surgeries page that was on the one I accessed from home). They need a serious revamp of their online system.
