The glowing reviews led me here and I can happily confirm that they're all spot on! I was able to book an appointment for a standard eye check-up quickly, and as a first time patient, I felt welcomed the moment I walked in.

He explained each step of the exam in a clear, reassuring way and he made sure to perform a very thorough eye exam. I felt very comfortable the entire time. Safe to say, I'll be coming back here for all future check-ups!

I've been here for three visits at this SSF location--their new building since they left next to…read moreKFC , but they're now next to Starbird--(fried chicken is the constant :-). It's not a deal breaker but parking sucks here. They have a dedicated garage but it's a pain in the ass and awkward to get in and out, a cavernous ridiculous poorly designed space. Maybe it's me being clumsy. Either way, I hate it. Been going here specifically for appointments with Dr. Christian Chew. We've been doing IPL (Intense Pulsed Light) by [FDA-approved Lumens OptiLight], which is a contraption of epic proportion and I'm guessing hella expensive, which is why only this office has it. Optica's also in Millbrae, but this machine is not there. I've had 100% excellent experiences here: bright, clean snazzy new digs, surprisingly spacious. Lynette and Jenna are at the front desk and assisting elsewhere--they're super friendly, warm, attentive, sweet, and super helpful. By the time I went in for my IPL consult, I'd already had: meibomian gland expression, punctal plugs, hydrating sleep mask, moist heated pads, prescription eye drops Miebo and Cequa + a host of other drops and gels. My bathroom counter looks like a damn pharmacy. My LAL cataract surgery put me over the edge with my dry eye, to the point I could no longer manage with my plethora of eye drops. Ask me if all this worked? NOT! Using eye drops a dozen times daily, I was freaking out--my stupid dry eye was seriously interfering with my daily functioning, e.g. my clients were asking me why my eyes were watering and/or if I was crying! Not a good look for a psychotherapist lol :-) I tried to get IPL a few years ago but was told that because I have olive skin, tan easily and never burn, I wasn't a good candidate (they didn't want to risk scarring or whatever). But here we are today, and years later, Dr. Chew has reached a level of experience with the OptiLight, such that he's finessed with technique. Operating it is not merely technical, it's a practiced art. I initially went in for an impromptu same day consult (thanks to Dr. Florendo who expedited it). I went in for a consult and was not supposed to get the treatment on that visit, but I was desperate and determined: I begged, coaxed, cajoled ... groveled, e.g. entreating "please, pleeez," for Dr. Chew to give me a tx. same day (I didn't want to go home without an intervention) ... he must've taken pity, because drum roll ... he did! He assessed no contraindications and was confident enough to know I was a decent candidate and likely would not have untoward side-effects from the treatment ... yesss! I've never looked back because my success is unmatched! I know this is hyperbole, all cases are different/unique, blah blah and I'm melodramatic but I'm so stoked about how much easier it is to get through the day, e.g. now I put only 4 or 5 different drops 2 to 3x daily and I barely tear up. WTH? I call this dumbfounding serious success! Dr. Chew is an absolute rock star, his facility and expertise with that beast of a machine on display every single time we do a treatment. My triumph is that this IPL works! Hallelujah! Did I mention I was initially apprehensive? Not sure who the doctor was, whether we'd have a seamless interaction (I can be a prickly, picky patient) ... I need not have worried because Dr. Chew is fire. I so appreciate him, for not only his expertise and knowledge, but for his demeanor: he's chill and relaxed, conversational, personable and approachable with a sense of humility. I can work with his down to earth and unprepossessing style. I cannot work with doctors who are old school officious or pompous with airs. I got no time for ego--eff it--I'm too old for that, I'm done. You know those doctors who think they know your body and symptoms better than you? That's the opposite of Dr. Chew, who's open enough to actively listens and doesn't assume. The total cost (it's out of pocket cuz greedy ass insurance demons don't cover it) of the four IPL txs. is very reasonable. After the initial four txs., every so often, depending on recurrence of symptoms, there's a tune up. Sign me up. Whatever it takes. Thank-god for this technology. It's worth every single penny!

Worst eye doctor I have ever had…read more Dr. Martin was rude and defensive throughout my appointment. I came in because my new prescription was too weak for my first eye exam at the Foster City location which resulted in an incorrect prescription, so I decided to try the Airport Boulevard location instead. I was experiencing blurry vision while walking around the house and when driving. At this point I go to South San Francisco Costco for my second attempt at getting the correct prescription from Costco. Dr. Martin is the doctor there. When I explained that my vision was still blurry and asked if my prescription could be increased, Dr. Martin repeatedly argued that there was no need to make any changes. After several minutes of discussion, he finally agreed to increase the prescription slightly. Unfortunately, when I received my new glasses, my left eye was clear, but my right eye was still noticeably blurry. I ended up having to return a third time, this time to the Foster City location, hoping they could finally correct my prescription. Overall, this was a very frustrating experience. I felt dismissed when I raised concerns about my vision, and I expected my symptoms to be taken more seriously. If you are a woman you know how it feels to be dismissed by a man that thinks they know more than you. That is exactly how it was. My third time taking the exam at Foster City this time. I went with my dad. So they can finally listen to my concerns. Maybe a male presence might change something. They are so bad at their job. Don't go to any costco for an Eye exam.

We've come here a few times over the years and have always had a positive experience. You generally…read moreneed to make an appointment, though I believe they do walk-ups if they have availability. This is an "Independent Doctor of Optometry", that happens to be located inside Costco. They charge $90 for an eyeglasses exam, and $120 for the glasses and contacts. Some insurances cover eye care, though the pricing seems reasonable even if paying out-of-pocket. Even with insurance, there may be a co-pay, specifically for contacts. There is also an additional option that can be done during your exam, which is called "optomap". The optomap is basically an ultra-widefield image of your retina that they use to help detect eye and other diseases. It costs $60, and is NOT covered by insurance. We did them during our last visit in April 2023, as it was the first we had heard about it. We were undecided if we wanted to do it again during our recent visit, though they mentioned we could do our normal exam and see if the doctor recommends it based on the results. Once you check-in and are ready, the whole process is pretty quick and painless (literally and figuratively). They ask you to wear a mask (provided) as you approach the first machine in the main room. You line your head and chin up to the machine and look normally. There is an image that is initially blurry, then adjusts to be clear based on how your eye sees it. After that, they blow small puffs of air into each eye; this is my least favorite part. This whole process only takes a few minutes, then they call you into the room to chat with the actual doctor. This is where they sit you in the more official chair and slide over the bigger machine. They show you a line of letters and ask you the ever-famous "better 1 or better 2". After that they see if you can read the line of letters, similar to at the DMV. This is how they determine your prescription. I had to pull my mask down for this as the lens kept getting fogged up. The last step is looking into your eyes with a light and what looks to be some sort of magnifying machine. After all was said and done, she determined that my prescription had not changed from my last visit nearly two years ago. She also said everything looked good and healthy, meaning I did not need to do the optomap this time around. Overall I definitely recommend this Costco optometry location. The staff were all friendly and helpful, and everything was efficient and seamless. We checked in a little early, and I was finished before the actual time of my scheduled appointment. My partner was with the doctor for a bit longer, as she also has contacts. Once you're done and have your prescription, there is a huge area right next door with hundreds of glasses to browse. Thanks again, see you in a couple years!
