I purchased glasses from Veo Optics several years ago. In the past two months I went back to reset…read moremy glasses after years of bending and as reset when I dropped a backpack on them. I was nervous the first time because I had no back up glasses and going to a reunion. Ryan was great getting them back in shape, and I had no idea how much the eyeglass handles had moved. The glasses fit great. He was efficient, personable, and took time to educate me on my glasses The second time, Johan fixed my bent up glasses. I thought I had bent them so far out of shape that I would need replacements. But Johan took great care getting them fixed. And amazingly enough, they fit perfectly. I was really impressed with his attention to detail and empathy for my situation. So, thank you both1

My partner and I love Dr Jenny at See Saw Seen!…read more Facility: Comfortable, spacious, clean, well lit. Gorgeous showroom selection of their own line of glasses, and they don't pressure you to buy. Location: lovely Hayes Valley with some free street parking and lots of options to eat/shop after Technology: I used to think state of the art equipment didn't matter for a routine eye exam, but it makes for a more comfortable experience, helps establish baseline images, and identify things otherwise easily missed so you can monitor Service: Easy check in and check out process at the front Appointments: Love the ease of scheduling appointments online and easy to get a hold of on the phone. Appointments are on time with plenty of time to ask lots of questions (which is encouraged). Saturday appointments are much appreciated. Dr: Supportive, friendly, calm demeanor, comprehensive and extremely detailed, takes a lot of notes to build a comprehensive file, good at explaining concepts and very patient Emergency: I had a tiny stray piece of velcro fly into my eye and I freaked out about it because I couldn't find the velcro. It was totally fine like she suspected but I super appreciate she squeezed me in same day to calm my nerves.

Dr. Jenny Yuen of See Saw Seen (SSS) and her staff are great. They are hospitable, punctual, and…read morevery communicative with answering questions and having cordial conversations. I loved that she accepted my VSP vision plan and my out-of-pocket costs for contact lens prescription was very reasonable. I also liked that she books Sat appointments. Her diagnostic remote control equipment is state-of-the-art and it made my exam very comfortable and quick. I have never seen as well with contact lenses as I have with her CL prescription and she was very accommodating with my preference for a prescription for inexpensive daily wear 30-day lenses vs more costly daily disposable ones. I really appreciated that. I also love the office's interior design with LEGO models that I'm sure her pediatric patients love and the nice design scientific optical medicine mathematical formula wallpaper. I didn't order eyeglasses from SSS so I am not sure how that service works, but she definitely had a great selection of frames. Overall, SSS has been my favorite optometrist in San Francisco and I will definitely return for an updated prescription. SSS definitely gets a well-deserved 5-stars from me!

I had just started wearing glasses within the last six months, so I honestly had no idea what I was…read moredoing when it came to getting lenses -- especially for a pair of smart-ish glasses that can play music and take calls. Luckily, I found Optical Underground, and they made the whole process easy. They knew right away that there is more than one kind of office progressive lens, and when the wrong lenses were sent, they didn't just hand them over and send me on my way. Instead, they told me immediately and ordered the correct replacements. The quality was clearly much better than the cheap online glasses I had started with, and once I realized the original lenses weren't right for me, I found another pair of the same frames and they swapped in the correct lenses without any hassle. The staff was knowledgeable, quick, friendly, professional, and open late, with great prices and high-quality lenses. If you have smart glasses and aren't sure how to get lenses for them, I'd definitely recommend checking them out.

You're welcomed on entering the shop and given plenty of room to browse. I did a once over, staff was helpful with questions, Their pricing for prescription lenses is pretty competitive. Apparently quite a few people have their optical eyeglass prescription loaded on their phone. Not so for me. Their frames are unique, fashionably pleasing but can be limited in quantity. So I bought an eyeglass frame that caught my attention and will plan to return to have it fitted with my prescription. Really happy to find a new source for fashion forward eyeglass frames!

My mom and I had mixed experiences at Costco Optometry. On the positive side, my mom really liked…read morethe optometrist and felt he was more thorough and attentive than the doctors she has seen at Kaiser. The doctor was professional, knowledgeable, and made a great impression. However, the optometry office itself seemed somewhat disorganized and cluttered. Most of the staff were friendly, helpful, and patient, but one staff member was noticeably unfriendly and very strict about requiring people to join the waitlist before being helped. He is a white, red haired with glasses, plaid shirt. Very rude to me. What was particularly frustrating is that the waitlist process relies on a QR code with instructions in English. I often see older customers who may not be comfortable using smartphones, and others whose first language is not English. After many years of coming to this location, this was the first time anyone had told me I needed to sign up on a waitlist. I made a mistake. Sue me. Overall, the quality of care from the doctor was excellent, but the office could improve its organization and make the check-in and waitlist process more accessible and customer-friendly.
