Overall, my experience at the clinic was amazing. Dr. Chai is one of the kindest physicians I've ever met. He was patient, informative, and everything you'd want in a doctor. Elsa, the staff member who brought me to the back and did my initial testing, was also incredibly sweet and patient. I decided to get glasses during my visit and was assisted by Elle. While things started off well, I was disappointed when she wouldn't let me ask questions and told me to "let her finish" in a tone I found unnecessarily rude. If I were rating her alone, I'd give one star, but I wouldn't want that to take away from how great the rest of the team was. Hopefully, others don't have the same experience with Elle. Aside from that, the visit was excellent. read more

My go-to optometrist! After switching insurances, I had to switch providers, decided to give Vision Republic a try, and I am so happy I did. Dr. Chau and his staff are amazing! Dr. Chau is very informative; he thoroughly reviews your eye exam results. Goes into detail and explains the function of each part of the eye as he pulls up your test results. Their manager, Elle, is fantastic. She has helped me and my 4 sisters pick out our perfect pair of glasses. I love the time and effort she puts into helping you find your ideal pair. She even takes the time to look for new trendy glasses to add to their stock! That's another thing I love about Vision Republic, the number of cool, cute, trendy classes! Styles that you cannot find at your average lens store. I highly recommend coming here for both exams and lenses! read more

This place is awesome! I did an impromptu walk in and just happened to catch a time slot with no appointment. The staff greeted me immediately and told me it would be just a few minutes. I walked around checking out all the different frames for glasses and discovered they carry Matsuda frames!! Tried on a frames and then took a seat on a comfy couch. Dr. Chau came out to greet me and we proceeded to the examination room to do some tests. Everything was sanitized before I touched it, which I really appreciate. Dr. Chau was great and extremely patient when asking me which picture looks better. He also answered all of my questions thoroughly and gave his recommendations. Overall, a great experience. Definitely recommend checking this place out for annual checkups. read more

I love the staff here! Very responsive and informative. Dr. Chau is awesome! I ended up getting Matsuda frames with the help of all the staffs opinion and couldn't be happier. Thanks vision republic and staff. read more

One of the best experiences I've had getting an eye exam. The sweet girl who did my initial eye exam was super professional, informative and thorough. The Doctor was also very helpful and informative, addressing my concerns and needs in which contacts to get. They also made sure to make the most of my insurance coverage, and I left super happy! read more

Up until today, we have driven 25 minutes to see our optometrist. Don't get me wrong...the staff is great and the frames are awesome, but if I can get the same around 8 minutes away, that's a big reason to switch. The lady at the front desk and Dr Chau welcomed my son and made him feel very comfortable. The place was very clean with sanitizer all around and masks were worn by everyone. My son has been standing very close to the tv lately, so I wasn't shocked when we were told he has astigmatism in both eyes. My son had to get his pupils dilated and they were so careful with everything that he didn't complain once. After the exam, my baby was able to look at frames and choose his favorite pair. There was no pressure to purchase anything that wasn't needed and we were told his frames would arrive in around a week or so. We left with a little boy who was not happy with possibly needing glasses on the way there to being super excited about his new specs on the way home. My son is very hyper and loves to talk 180 mph and dance. The fact that the staff was so caring and patient makes this place the go-to place for all of my family members. I can't wait to go back for my own exam. read more

If you are looking for a recent review here it is. I was pleased with the service, from the phone call to make the appointment and everything after. I felt heard, and they also took their time explaining everything to me from beginning to end. read more

I needed new glasses and a health check on my eyes. My former eye doctor was forcing a mask mandate on customers. I began looking for a new doctor and found Vision Republic. Fairly new in the area, but I did not have to wear a mask or provide proof of vaccination. I took a chance and made an appointment. I'm so glad I did! Dr. Steven Chau is young (at least to me - I'm in my 60s) and current on eye health and vision screening and has a 'bedside manner' I would expect from someone older and used to patients who are older. He is great! The entire team at Vision Republic are talented, work well together and created a great experience. My exam was thorough, my questions answered and I am quite confident in Dr. Chau's knowledge and skill. I have two pair of glasses coming to me soon! I can't wait to get them! read more

Hands down the best office with the best staff! Modern, clean, and comfortable. Gaby, the technician, was super kind and helpful when it came to scheduling my appointment and performing the vision tests. Dr. Chau was very personable and provided me with the most thorough and comprehensive exam I've ever had. Will definitely be coming here for all my future needs. read more

This place is super clean and modern. The staff here are very friendly and helpful. The eye-exam didn't take too long and Dr. Chau did a thorough job. I love my new glasses and my contacts fit me perfectly. What more can I ask for? I highly recommend this place. read more

I had such an amazing experience. Dr. Chau is amazing and very thorough! I've always had a problem with contacts drying out my eyes and they were able to find the perfect contacts for my eyes. If you want the best vision care experience, Vision Republic is the place to go! read more

Awesome place to find one of a kind frames and service was great. Will be back and taking my daughter there too.

Today was the first time my son and I visited this location, after my son failed his vision test at his medical annual check up. He is located 4 mins from where we live, and with my at home work schedule, decided we would give it a try. We went to visit for our vision exams (I might as well go get mine at the same time). Dr. Chau was very thorough, along with his assistant Gabby, and showed us what they saw during the exam and explained thoroughly what the pictures all meant. They explained every step of the exam process. I felt confident my son and I were getting the best care when I left, and felt more informed than I normally do when I go for eye exams (last one I had was in 2017). We go back in 6 weeks to make sure my son's glasses are doing what he suggested they would do for his astigmatism issue. During these changing times, I saw them sanitize thoroughly after each process they conducted on each of us. Would definitely recommend to anyone. read more
