I've had 3 appointments here and unfortunately my impression is that Dr. Gui doesn't seem to value patients' time and is simply overbooked. For example, today I had a 3:45pm appointment and didn't end up seeing Dr. Gui until 5pm. To be fair, I did need to get my eyes dilated which can take up to 30 minutes so some wait was expected but I, along with multiple other patients, were in the waiting room for roughly 1 hour. This is especially frustrating when your eyes are dilated and your vision is extremely blurry and sensitive to light. And after the hour wait, I was only examined for 5 minutes max so I'm not sure what the hold up was. My other two appointments were similar. On the bright side, I really enjoy the assistants, they are very friendly, attentive, and are the saving grace of Orange Ivy Retina. My suggestions are: If behind schedule, dilate patients closer to the actual examination time or provide eyepatches so patients don't need to strain their eyes so much. You could also hire another doctor or simply don't schedule as many patients in a day. read more

I had an urgent eye issue and was worried it might be a retinal detachment. Dr. Gui was incredibly caring and saw me on very short notice. He took the time to explain everything clearly, answered all my questions, and made me feel at ease during a stressful time. His professionalism and compassion truly stood out. I highly recommend him to anyone in need of expert retinal care. read more

i have a history of retinal tears and was worried that new floaters might indicate a problem. Dr Gui went out his way to accommodate my schedule and his exam was thorough, detailed and he kept me informed every step of the way. I wish I lived in soCal because if I did, I'd switch to him as my doctor (I'm visiting from out of state). He is caring, professional, open to questions, and makes the patient feel heard and seen. Absolutely recommend him, he is the perfect mix of stellar medical credentials and also warm and friendly personality who genuinely cares about you as a patient. Five stars! read more

We are very grateful for having Dr Gui's professional dexterity delivered with pinpoint precision in my wife's recent eye surgery. Upon receiving our Optometrist's referral, Dr Gui's office immediately arranged the prompt medical procedure to treat the patient's condition in timely fashion, which was a key in the overall success of the surgery. As a eye-witness of the entire treatment process, I can attest that his staff are equally professional and attentive throughout the entire process. In short, we wish others to be spared from any vision or retinal related illness. But in case you do have any issue, Dr Gui is the savior you can truly count on! George and Janice read more

After suffering a head injury that completely turned my life upside down, I found myself navigating a seemingly endless list of doctors, weekly (multiple) appointments, and therapies just to manage the effects on my body. But the scariest and most distressing symptom I developed was a sudden explosion of 100's of eye floaters in my vision. That morning changed everything for me. Since then, I've had several terrifying episodes, flashing lights, new floaters, and vision disturbances, that triggered an anxiety and sadness I never knew I could feel. Through every single one of these moments, Dr. Gui has been there for me. Each time I call with concerns, he makes sure to get me in that same day. He has answered after hours on weekends, and even on New Year's Day when I had a vision scare. He takes his time during every appointment, patiently answering all of my (many) questions, never making me feel rushed or dismissed. His calm, kind demeanor has been an absolute lifeline during one of the most difficult and terrifying experiences of my life. I've even come into his office in tears completely overwhelmed by fear and frustration, and he has shown a level of compassion that I have never experienced from any other doctor. And I've seen a long list of specialists across many different fields over the past year. There is truly no one like him. If you are looking for a doctor who is not only highly skilled and knowledgeable but also genuinely cares about his patients on a human level, Dr. Gui is the one. I cannot recommend him enough. He has helped me feel heard, reassured, and taken care of during a time when I needed it most, and for that, I am endlessly grateful. Oh and the staff is amazing!! Always happy, welcoming, and kind. Appreciate you all for taking care of me. read more

Dr. Gui, Dyane and his assistant were fanastic. I scheduled an appoitment to see Dr. Gui because my opthalmogist diagnosed a posterior vitrious detachment (PVD) on my right eye which is causing me headaches and has affected my vision. Dr. Gui is extremely knowledable, thorough and nice. He explained and answered all my questions and made me feel comfortable. It looks like in a few months, I will be having a vitectomy with Dr. Gui and I know that I will be in good hands. Thank you Dr. Gui for giving me answers and hope. read more

Alright, so I started having eye problems and my optometrist referred me to see Dr. Wayne. This doctor is an ophthalmologist that specializes in retinas and has a lot of degrees from prestigious universities. From my exam he found my problem and explained I needed treatment. I was really sad there was a problem but Dr. Wayne changed my perspective and informed me I should not be sad but feel lucky we caught the pro before it turned into something worse. Overall, I was very happy with my visits and treatment with Dr. Wayne. The office is pretty and the front desk worker is very personable. I hope you never have to experience any eye problems but if you do have a problem, I recommend seeing Dr. Wayne. read more

So excited Dr. Gui moved to this wonderful location. It is a beautiful office. I happened to be his first patient at this new Irvine location and also first Yelper too! I have been putting off a procedure for months and finally decided to get it done and I just happened to stumble upon the fact that he opened up his very own practice next to Waterworks! Talk about timing! Since this is my 2nd review for Dr. Gui, I'll be writing the same things again. He's a fantastic doctor and I'm very happy to follow him to his very own new office. He is very detailed and thorough in all his exams. He takes his time with his patients and emphasizes on patient care. Dr. Gui always gives me options and answers all my questions. Considering today is his Grand Opening, I'm glad I was able to get this first appointment because as I left I noticed lots of his other patients follow him wherever he goes. read more

At beginning of April , my daughter was told by optometrist her retina had tear during annual eye check up. The optometrist referred Dr Wei Gui at Orange IVY Retina for further evaluation. To my surprise, my daughter was able to get the same day appointment with Dr Gui. Dr Gui examined her eyes thoroughly and then explained to us what's happening in details . Since the tore retina can develop retina detachment if leaving untreated so he suggested laser treatment asap . Dr Gui stayed late to perform the laser treatment on my daughter's eye on the same day! The operation went well and Dr Gui did the same procedure for her another eye after two weeks . I feel relieved my daughter's eye problems got fixed in time! I really appreciate Dr Gui's expertise and his work ethic . He is very kind, caring and knowledgeable. I strongly recommend Dr Gui to anyone who has eye problems. Plus, the staffs at Orange Ivy Retina all are very nice,especially Aline, she is so sweet and professional. read more

I was referred to Dr. Gui, because I had loss of sight because of a detached retina from Hoag Hospital. I was seen the next day (Sunday). He presented me with options that he could do for me based on my diagnosis. He was very kind, attentive and considerate all throughout all of my visits. After surgery in his office, I was regained my sight about 2 days later. I was so happy to be able to see again. The surgery was quick with very little pain. If I should need to return for more work, I would not hesitate to return to his practice. Dr. Gui is very professional and an expert in his field. He was able to work around obstacles that arose during treatment. I felt very safe and that I could put my trust in him for my treatment. The front office staff were very kind and helpful and very attentive. I am really grateful for the whole treatment experience. Thanks Orange Ivy Retina. read more

We would like to express our gratitude to Dr. Gui and his staffs. Our mom had an unsuccessful cataract eye surgery and was taken to Dr. Gui for his expertise on the same day.

The 2nd surgery performed by Dr. Gui was a success. Special thanks to Dr. Gui and his genuinely care ophthalmic technician, our mom is now able to see after almost a decade of being legally blind. read more

Dr. Gui did my follow up to my retinal surgery that was done at UCLA. I had a retinal tear while I was in LA so went there since it was close to where I was when the event occurred. I live in Orange County and since Dr Gui was a Fellow at the UCLA Stein Eye Institute, my UCLA surgeon was very comfortable turning me over to his care once the surgery was over so that I didn't have to keep going to LA. Dr Gui is amazingly thorough and I am incredibly confident in his skill set should future issues arise. I highly recommend him! read more

I had completed significant research for the best Vitreoretinal Specialist and surgeon in Orange County. I found his reviews and his Biography were very impressive. I had developed a tear in my Macular. It was having a major impact on my right eye. After multiple tests, Dr. Gui said that it was repairable, but to do it sooner rather than later for a better chance of success. He scheduled the surgery in a few days. The surgery was a success. Dr. Gui is very personable and does not hurry to get you out of the office for the next patient. He takes the time to explain the medical details and the procedure at a very understandable level for the patient. In surgery, he has a calm presence that makes the patient feel that everything is under control. After surgery, he sets up appointments to take a look at the repair and makes sure that everything is just as he wants. I have told many of my friends and associates about Dr. Gui and recommend him to everyone. His staff, Jasmine is excellent at her job. She has a personality that makes you comfortable while you wait to see Dr. Gui. She is multi-tasking and always asks if the patient needs anything. Jasmine and Dr. Gui work very well together and deserve an outstanding rating. read more

Doctor Gui saved my eyesight with a emergent surgery for a detached retina. He was on call in the ED at Hoag the night I went in with my left eye losing vision. He consulted with the ED doctor about my eye and arranged an appointment the next morning in his office. I had surgery that afternoon. He is a caring and professional doctor. He calmed me down and put me at ease from the first moment we talked. I am so glad he was on call that night. I just had my 90 day post op appointment and my eye is perfect. I would highly recommend Dr Gui !! read more

I was admitted to ER on a Saturday night around 9 pm for a retinal detachment in my right eye. 3 hours later around midnight, they found Dr Gui, and the ophthalmologist on call was sending all my reports to Dr Gui for evaluation. After reviewing the scanning results, Dr Gui decided to give up his Sunday and see me early Sunday morning in his new clinic for a more complete examination. I met Dr Gui at his clinic around 9 am on Sunday. He is very professional and kind, and polite in a very humble manner. Dr Gui gave a very thorough examination on both eyes, after which he pointed out the floater problem on my left eye, which my previous ophthalmologist took two years and still didn't figure out why. And Dr Gui also told me my right eye needed a vitrectomy surgery right away to repair the retina, for there was a giant tear. Dr Gui explained the surgery to me at a level that I could understand but not too much details to burden me unnecessarily, and he also told me all the associated risks and their consequences and mitigations. Besides the fact that Dr Gui is so knowledgeable about all these eye things, I can also feel his passion and how he actually cares about me as a person who may be losing his eyesight, but not just a patient or a number. I knew that I could trust him with my invaluable eyesight. So I agreed to have the surgery and Dr Gui immediately made phone calls to arrange for it to happen. The surgery was completed by 4 pm, and my right eye was saved, thanks to Dr Gui! The surgery went well, and my eye is making good progress in recovery. I'm so thankful for Dr Gui and his big heart and his passion to help out people with eye problems. Dr Gui is truly the best, I'll be forever grateful to him for saving my eyesight! read more
