When it came time for my glasses fitting Artie (or Arty, sorry if I'm getting the spelling wrong!) was so nice and patient! He cleaned my old glasses and changed the worn out nose bridge pads (I can't believe I didn't have this change sooner!). I must have stayed about an hour since I could not make up my mind. Artie gave me several more options from the brands I narrowed down. Honestly he made glasses shopping worthwhile since I didn't feel rushed.

She told me that everything was alright, but she would like to watch this and that and for that I needed that...in a tone that made me wonder if there is something wrong with my eyes.

The front staff are so nice and welcoming. Hailey was amazing, efficient and very helpful. Dr. Frisch has an extensive resume of education, training and many years of experience in his field. He is very thorough with his exams, explains everything in detail and also has the best personality! He is kind, warm and genuinely loves what he does and cares about his patients. Most importantly, he doesn't rush through the exam. They have state of the art equipment for testing your eyes. A lovely selection of eye glass frames. Andrew was helpful in ordering my new glasses and going over what's covered under our vision plan. Parking is a breeze.

However, I wanted to give 3 stars due to my coworker's experience. It felt like she was robbed to get an eye exam even though she didn't need it. She brought her current (new) eye glasses to have them obtaining the eye prescription for the safety goggles. Instead of getting the eye prescription, they sent her to a doctor to get the eye exam. Then they charged her for the eye exam. I wouldn't blame the doctor since he wouldn't be awared. The receptionist should know better. They don't want to refund her for the eye exam.

He's identified issues with my eyes that multiple doctors at Kaiser were unable to.

Dr. Stephen Chang at Glendale Eye Medical Group was referred by few friends for my mom's PRK…read moresurgery after a failed Lasik surgery that was done by Dr. Kourouyan. He did NOT take any precautions and his procedure had a disastrous outcome. The laser got caught in the old incision and cut layers down in the cornea. He assured us that he will take care of all the costs and medical care for the eye, and he reimbursed half of the charges because of his negligence. My mother was scheduled few visits throughout the next year hoping to see progress while it was healing. After a year passed from the surgery date we had our last visit. He checked the eye and said I'm sorry but your vision has gotten worse and it's not healing. I can't do anything for you. We had to pay out of pocket to see Dr. Maloney, one of the best ophthalmologist in the country. He recommended a cornea transplant. Since then I have requested her medical records from Dr. Chang's office. They gave us copies of the dates that she had gone for visits and not the actual notes from the Dr. Unfortunately since a year has passed so has the statue of limitations period and many attorneys do not take the case and Dr. Chang is not taking any responsibility to care for his patient due to his negligence. My mother's eye is more then 80 percent damaged from this surgery. Her vision is mainly reliant on one eye. Take our experience in consideration and don't risk your vision to negligence.

Don't make my mistake!…read more Dr. Kagan makes first impression as a great doctor, very confident, speaks scientific terms, assertive etc. But it's very misleading. Example: I came to see Dr. Kagan for one specific reason - to get a prescription for my new glasses. Dr. Kagan examined my eyes and gave me his prescription, which I used to order my new glasses at Costco. Order was completed, I got my new glasses! I was surprised when it turned out that I see worse with my new glasses than old ones! I contacted the office of Dr. Kagan and asked if I can come to follow up appointment and if Dr. Kagan can give his expert opinion regarding the new glasses (maybe Costco guys made a mistake or something). "Yes, you can come" they answered me in the Dr Kagan office. So, when I came, Dr. Kagan's assistant asked what's wrong with the glasses. I say, I see with new glasses worse than with my old ones. She takes my glasses, goes to talk to the doctor and comes after half a minute, saying that I need to go to Costco and solve the issue there. I ask, what, Dr. Kagan can't give his professional opinion about what's wrong with the glasses?? "No, he cannot" - the assistant goes...Ok, I go to Costco to get a new prescription and Costco doctor says that the prescription I got from Dr Kagan is wrong! What a surprise! I knew that already, but Dr Kagan is so arrogant that can't accept his own mistake. Moreover, his arrogance and narcissism go up so much that he can't even talk to his patient and discuss their problems! No, what for?? He is too busy. Now, I want to ask you one simple question. If he can make mistakes with the prescription for glasses which is a 6-10 numbers so to speak, can he make a mistake with the surgical procedures that he does regularly? I believe these operations require many more numbers. Can he make errors there? I think you know the answer. Yes, he can. Do you want a doctor that not only can make a mistake where he deals with your precious organ but doesn't even want to accept his mistake?! No, you don't want this doctor! A big NO. By the way, today I got the new glasses from Costco and I see with them much better.
