    We drove about 40-45 minutes to visit Solace Optometry in Murrieta, and it was absolutely worth the…read moretrip. My husband originally found them on Yelp, and while the near five-star reviews caught our attention, what really sold us was their designer frame selection. They did not disappoint. The doctor had an amazing bedside manner. She was gentle, professional, and genuinely kind, which made the whole experience comfortable from start to finish. The office itself was spotless and beautifully styled. I especially loved the framed macramé Ojo behind the reception area. Such a unique touch. Both techs were fantastic. My husband and I honestly had a blast with them. Super friendly, easygoing, and they made the entire process feel fun instead of clinical. We also recently moved, and the techs here took the time to explain materials and add-ons in a way that actually made sense. In over 20 years of wearing glasses, no other place has ever broken it down for us like that. When I mentioned how much I loved their frame selection, they shared that their manager personally curates all the brands. You can tell, because the selection is . I ended up with stunning Gucci frames, and my husband picked out matte black Spy glasses that are nerdy in the best way but still totally manly. Perfect upgrade for him. And when my husband saw the price tag on my Gucci frames... let's just say one of the techs came to my rescue Great people, great energy, beautiful selection. We will definitely be back.

Solace Optometry was AMAZING! Dr. Saleh is remarkably kind and compassionate. She truly listened to my concerns and understood exactly what I was hoping to achieve with my contact lenses. She took the time to carefully address my astigmatism and recommended that I try a new brand. I'm currently testing them out, so we'll see how it goes. She sent me home with a four-day trial, and I'm looking forward to giving her feedback on the Precision1 lenses. Booking an appointment was incredibly easy. I simply called, and they were able to see me the very next day! The office itself is cozy and inviting, located in a convenient shopping center with plenty of parking. The staff is extremely helpful, friendly, and resourceful. Overall, I left feeling really confident about my experience. I think I've found the optometrist for me

    After moving to Menifee last year, I needed a new optometrist and optical store in the local area…read more Target Optical was an "in network" provider for my eye insurance, so I decided to give them a try. My eye exam was professionally performed and done very effectively and efficiently. My original plan was to get my RX printed out and then shop for glasses at other stores and locations, since I needed two pairs - one with polarized transition lenses and one that was a pair of polarized sunglasses. Since I was already there, I asked the store to give me a quote, and the combined price for the two sets of frames and lenses was very attractive, so I ordered both pairs on the spot!

    Darryl D. in the comment section is spouting off nicely but pay no attention to his well-written,…read moremisplaced diatribe. I frequent Target for various shopping sprees, having walked by this optical store many times. Eye exams are $75 or so. The designer and off-brand eyeglass frames - which are select, fashionable and functional kept me enthralled, really. I just happened to make an appointment for an exam while I casually strolled in to take a peek at the frames. Last check was a few years ago. Dr. Vanessa Ceballos, OD has a great chairside manner, explaining everything she's doing with the techno gadget used for checking vision and for checking for glaucoma. We discovered some minor, age-related issues that can be easily corrected by an ophthalmologist; once that's done, I won't even need glasses, but for reading. Boo bummer, sort of. I had three, jazzy frames picked out for some transition lenses I had in mind, suggested by the gracious, enthusiastic receptionist, Zoey. Let's not forget Angel. He's ever so amiable on the phone and in person. Loved the experience. No lengthy waiting. Dr. Ceballos gently got to the point to fix the problem. I like the frames I chose so much, I'm going to get non-prescription polarized lenses for a new set of shades. Bamm! They cater to all ages, even kids. Who knew?

Lol Poor customer service of office staff (Noemi and EJ). I brought my mom here for an overdue eye appt. When working with seniors you should be polite in my opinion. It's basic customer service. Their attitude is as if you are bothering them. For a first time visit I wasn't impressed. The gentleman "EJ" didn't even acknowledge my mother by name. He simply summoned her with his hand. Unprofessional in my opinion. Staff was not helpful. There are limited options in this area but if you can go elsewhere... you should!

I order glasses and when I got them they didn't fit right so they said they said they had problems with that manufacture so they offered me another solution which was to order some new ones. It has been over two months and i still do t have my glasses. They said the manufractur lost the order. Every day I called they said they will have them ready next week. I even had one of their employeees text saying they were sorry and she will escalate the problem. The front desk people are nice but whoever does their 3rd party needs to be replaced. Finally after that a manager called saying the manufactor found them and will send the frame to them which means i have to wait for the lens to be cut which can take another month: They don't offer refunds so Inhave no choice but to wait. I'm walking around with broken glasses because they can't get it together. Nevea Evea again! Rose and the other front desk ladies are kind but that's not enough when i can't see

    Is there less than one star? So.. a 3 minute surgery took 3…read morehours. After it was complete I recieved a call that my husband was done, I said Im walking in from parking lot. On this cloudy, chilly day the nurse was pushing my 78 yr old husband's wheelchair outside where she wanted him to wait for me. I was walking up as I heard him say, " Im not waiting outside." What kind of screwed up patient care is that? The after care instructions are vague. I think Medicare will be interested in the questionable treatment this facility provides. We're going to Scripps or Loma Linda next time and I advise everyone to do the same. The wait for the procedure is somewhat understandable. Somewhat. But the kicking him outside? The 3 phone call I got saying first, pick up in 30 min, then, oh hewont be ready for 30 more min, oh he's ready now...a new staff is necessary for both surgery center and eye center. We won't be back. Once we write to Medicare, I will not think of this place again.

Very courteous and understand you may be going through a hard time. Looks like I will be getting two eye surgeries. May 21st and May 28th. Please pray for me. The bad news is that it is expensive! The good news is they have a promotional service that if you apply for a synchrony credit card they defer the 32% for two years. I am really excited to be able to actually see normally again. One piece of advice to that young girl with the attitude in the office is this and please quote me "do not ever tell someone who has stage 4 cataracts to go visit a website if you don't understand something". Like really? Other than that it was great. I will update after healing
