Appreciate you guys, thank you for always being consistent in making patients like me feel important.

Pro tip: The address…read moreon Yelp is incorrect/out of date as of August 2019 -- call the phone # and ask if you don't trust me :) Dr. Alvarez is now at: 1346 Lee Trevino Dr, Ste 114, El Paso, TX 79936. Current hours shown in the photo I posted. I really like Dr. Alvarez and her staff. The five stars are for them. Lovely office, personable, intelligent doctor. I think the in-office Zeiss lenses/glasses are pretty darn expensive. I would definitely price glasses elsewhere if budget is a concern.

Terrible service, terrible product. I'm not going back there for anything. I had an eye exam and…read morethe prescription they gave me was not suitable for glasses.They made some adjustments and it came out worse. And I had to wait two months to have an appointment because I had to see the same optometrist who had seen me before. I was never happy with glasses.After 6 months the lenses of the glasses started to crack. During the waiting time, I lost my glasses. When they called me, two weeks later, they wanted $150.00 for not having the frame.Paying for a product that wasn't good from the start, no way. I'm just saying that I won't go back there.

I like to start off by saying after seeing 3 different doctors (ophthalmologists), 2 at Envision…read moreand 1 at Southwest Eye Institute my prescription was wrong. The second doctor even yelled at me in the exam room telling me he is not interested in what I had to say while I tried to explain why I am there. The doctor at Southwest dismissed me saying I was seeing streaks on their lens machine and that it was as good as it was going to get with my prescription. For two years I struggled with my prescription making it hard to see. I remembered I went to see an optometrist back at El Paso Eyeworks located on Gateway w. I recalled I saw clearly after my exam, so I reached out to her. I saw the optometrist (Dr. Syndy Maynard) this past Saturday, and she listened to my concerns. Turns out, 3 doctors (ophthalmologist, all male), could not figure out that I now needed bifocals. I told these 3 ophthalmologists the exact same thing I told this optometrist. That was the change in my vision. I never had to wear bifocals before. These previous doctors could not figure out or care to figure out that hey, maybe we should take her seriously and investigate just a little further. Two years I was struggling to see! One doctor listened, cared and helped make the correct diagnosis. I am forever grateful for Dr. Maynard and strongly recommend her!

Everywhere I called offered appointments a month out and considering my situation, I really couldn't wait that long. I called Dr. Boynton's office and was offered an appointment the same day! His office staff (one girl!) was really nice and so was the doctor. He took his time and didn't rush the appointment, just like my old doctor! I received a trial pair of contacts, put them in, and the doc took me back into the examination room to check the fit... something my old doctor didn't do. I had to wait the usual two weeks and return for a follow-up, which I didn't like too much, considering I've used the same brand of contacts for years. I definitely recommend Dr. Boynton and his staff. I'll be scheduling my husband's appointment soon!

The thing I appreciate about this optometrist the most is the fact that they do NOT sell glasses or…read morecontact. Which means no one is trying to up-sale me on crap I don't need. After my boyfriend had his eye exam done here, I decided it was time for some new contacts and glasses so I set up an appointment. They were able to get me in within two weeks and at a time that worked for me. To speed up the process they also gave me the paperwork when scheduling my appointment and told me I could just bring it with when I came back. Efficiency. Everyone that I interacted with was friendly and cheerful. I even appreciated that the doctor didn't try to confuse me in any way and actually set straight a lot of misinformation I was given by my previous doctor/salesperson. You know the best part... the glaucoma machine. You know the machine that blows air into your eyes to test the pressure? At the previous optometrist, I'd always "fail" the test and then I'd have to go through the process of having my eyes dilated which always sucks because driving after is the worst. FBOC's glaucoma machine was actually able to give a real reading because it was a quick push of air instead of the long shot of air that was always forced my eyes to shut. No dilation, YAY! Pretty smooth process and from start to finish was maybe an hour of my time. The staff is great. And I felt like they really went the extra mile with everything... the doctor even decided it was best to do a follow up appointment since there was some uncertainty with my contacts. I paid out of pocket and felt that the price for a contact and glasses prescription was reasonable at $129 (and that included the trial pair of contact lenses).
