Super Friendly Drs! Both Dr. Jay and Dr. Cheng have such a great, positive, cheery attitude. It is always a pleasure to get my eye exams there. They have some really high tech equipment and each time I have visited they have improved my vision. read more

I was way overdue on my eye appointment. The office worked with me to find the best options for my prescriptions (both contacts and glasses) and were extremely knowledgeable on insurance and the best way to get the most out of my policy. In addition, they filled out and had a rebate ready for me so I didn't have to worry about doing any of that once my contacts and glasses came in. The staff was very well versed and helped me find glasses that complimented my face. I did pay more than I had hoped- but mostly that was because I feel in love with the most expensive pair of frames (of course) but they worked on getting me the best deal. I would highly recommend them. read more

I have been a patient of Dr. Schlanger's for years. He is knowledgeable, professional and super friendly. It is always great to hear about his family and what he has been doing the past year. read more

Dr Schlanger is the go-to "Eye Guy" He knows his stuff and great with contacts - even with tricky situations like mine. Recommended read more

Dr. Schlanger is the best! My son has suffered from severe keratoconus for years. We live in the Central Valley of California and after going through numerous doctors, not one could help my sons vision and pretty much told us there was nothing they could do. We went through glasses (which never worked), numerous contacts that slightly improved his vision, just enough where he could at least get through jr. high school and high school, though his sight was still greatly impaired. We finally resorted to surgical procedures that seemed to stop the progression of the disease, however, we still could not find a doctor to fit him with contacts that would improve his vision. Then we found Dr. Schlanger a couple of years ago. He is the only doctor that has been able to fit him with special contacts that are comfortable and he can see out of. He can now drive and will be starting his third year of college this fall and is doing wonderful. His life is finally normal. We have to drive a bit of a distance to see him, but we work it around his college schedule. I don't know what we would have done without Dr. Schlanger. Did I mention he is a really nice guy, too? He is funny and just a really nice man. All the staff is wonderful, too, and they certainly deserve a mention and are always willing to help you with any questions you have. You won't be sorry if you choose Dr. Schlanger for your eye care needs. He is the best! read more

I have been a patient of Dr. Schlanger for several years, having been referred by my daughter's very impressive eye doctor in Sacramento with whom he went to school. Dr. Schlanger is the absolute best, gave me the most thorough total eye exams I've ever had and, with extreme patience, was able to fit me with contact lenses that work perfectly when other eye doctors told me I wasn't a good candidate and -- on top of all that, he is a delight to work with. read more

I've been a patient of Dr. Schlanger's since 1982, and have followed he and his staff from Los Angeles to Encino. Can't imagine going anywhere else. "Viewed" to be the BEST!!! Thank you for taking such great care of my vision needs...... read more

Dr. Schlanger is the best. He is thorough, friendly and very knowledgeable. His staff was helpful, they didn't overbook his time, and I was in and out in about 1/2 hour. It was quicker because my eyes didn't need to be dilated this year. I highly recommend Dr. Schlanger. read more

Dr Schlanger is a rare bird when it comes to eyes. He is friendly, caring, high tech, and available when the need arises. I had a contact problem on a Saturday and called his office to see if he could help. Unfortunately I got stuck in some bad traffic but he and his staff stayed open for me. Where else in LA could you find that kind of service? I hate going "over the hill" but will gladly travel to his office any time. Dr Schlanger does take insurance. Yes he sells glasses (what eye doctor doesn't these days?) but you don't have to buy them from him! read more

Dr. Schlanger and his staff are always friendly, thorough and professional. They listen and take the time to provide you with recommendations and service that you need. read more

I travel from Westwood to go to see Dr. Schlanger. I have just discovered him and hope he will continue to practice for a long time. What a find! read more

still the best eye doctor i have been to .he is really gentle and even my kids go to him for inspection and he is great with the hole family..prices and also good ,loves his new equipment he gets read more

I enjoy going to Dr. Schlanger. He's knowledgeable and gives me the feeling I am in good hands. At other offices they offer you standard exams covered by insurance and the more advance for an extra charge. Not so at his office. No nasty puff in the eye to measure your pressure and all procedures are explained. They have a wide range of frames for every pocket book. You choose. The staff is very helpful in finding a stylish frame that is within the budget. I have to drive at least 30 minutes to get to Dr. Schlanger, but don't mind as I know I will be getting great service. read more

I have been a patient of Dr. Schlanger for over 20 years. He's great. I have astigmatism and he was the only doctor ever able to fit me for contact lenses back in the day. He's friendly and caring. I never feel like he rushing me out the door just to get to next patient. read more

I have been a patient of Dr. Schlanger's for 20 years. I would never go to anyone else. He is always on top of the latest technology for exams, surgeries and lenses. He will not stop until he has resolved your issue. He is like the TV show "House": he LOVES the cases that no one else can solve. And he solves them. He loves what he does and his patients and always explains everything clearly. There simply is no one else like him. I wouldn't trust my eyes to anyone else, even though it means I have to drive an hour to his office. He is always on time and considerate. read more

I see Dr. Schlanger twice a year. He is the best eye care professional with an excellent support staff.

Dr. Schlanger has been my eye doctor for over 20 years. That says alot right there! He's always on top of the latest developments in eye care and is devoted to giving each patient the best care possible....certainly has with me! He's friendly and yet completely professional. I hope he'll be my doctor for another 20 years! He's the best! read more

Dr. Schlanger is great and does a really good of examining your eyes, but his staff is a bit standoffish and sometimes rude. Plus, their frame selection is standard, a bit boring and very expensive. When we inquired to see less expensive frames, we got a get a bit of an attitude. Not sure if we'll go back again because of that, which is shame because Dr. Schlanger is really, really good. read more

I would not recommend this facility to anyone. They not only tried to over charge me on everything, they most importantly did not resolve the eye issue I have. I went in with headaches and pain in my eye. I continued to have headaches and upon another visit (which was less than 5 min) was charged $200 (for a contact exam/fitting) and no solution. I do believe that to be charged such a ridiculous amount an actual contact exam/fitting should have been done, which I'm sure takes more than 5 min. Not to mention should no longer be in pain. I am very disappointed and hurt with the way this private practice, which claims to be friendly and family oriented, treats their patients. If you are debating where to go DO NOT GO HERE. read more

I have been seeing Dr. Schlanger for about two years and I am very pleased with the quality care and the friendly office staff. I suffer from kerataconus and for many years have endured the discomfort of wearing hard contact lenses. Keratconus patients cannot use soft contacts or glasses. In such patients, hard lenses cause itching, dry eyes and are simply uncomfortable. Dr. Schlanger fitted me with scleral contact lenses. These are quite a bit larger and rest on the sclera (the white part of the eye). What a difference! The new lenses are extremely comfortable, I am able to wear them for about 16 hours per day with no itching, dryness or the kerataconus trade mark of rubbing he eyes. I highly recommend Dr. Schlanger if you are looking for quality state of the art eye care. read more

I have been to see Dr. Schlanger many times, and am impressed each time with how thorough he and his staff are. His office is very modern with updated, high tech equipment. He spends ample time and explains everything he is doing. I would highly recommend Dr. Schlanger to family and friends. read more

Dr. Schlanger is wonderful. I have terrible trouble with my eyes- 2 corneal transplants and so far, he is th eonly one that has been able to fir me properly with contacts and find ones that fit people with many problems. read more

Dr. Schlanger makes going for an eye check-up actually pleasant, although I wish he were still on the "other side of the hill." I have been a patient for more than 20 years and he has always been kind, accommodating and knowledgeable. When I was younger I really appreciated that he helped me without charging a fortune for it. All today's high-tech equipment drives up the bill but as my eyes age I know I'd prefer to have thorough exams and know what is really going on with my eyes...they're the only ones I've got. Why skimp???? And since he takes insurance, it's manageable. The staff is also very pleasant and helpful. I recommend Jay Schlanger for thoughtful attention to your eyes. read more

I have been a patient of Dr. Schlanger's since 1989. At that time I had insurance, then went through a period of no insurance and continued going to him. He relates to his patients as human beings, not numbers. He takes the time with his patients, not only to explain what is going on with your eyes, but takes in interest in your life. He is an expert in the field. Top notch. Even now that I have insurance (which doesn't cover visits to his office), I continue to see him on a regular basis, because I can trust his evaluation and recommendations. I can trust the health of my eyes with him. A great doctor and terrific person I hope he continues his practice for a long time. read more

I cannot recommend Dr. Schlanger enough! I have been seeing Jay for over 20+ years for glasses, contacts, lasik, and now mono vision and I cannot and will not trust anyone more when it comes to my eye care! I have told friends to go see Jay when they've had any eye problems and ALL have been more than satisfied and continue going back. Jay's knowledge & honesty with all things "eyes" will keep you "out of the dark!" Therefore "EYE" can highly recommend him! read more

I have actually been a patient of doctor Schlanger's since he first started and have followed him from location to location. I currently live in the Pasadena area and drive to his office in the valley. That pretty much says it all! He is always up to date on all the latest technology and developments. He and his staff are always friendly and accommodating. His exams are thorough and he has always made it a point to help me get the most out of my insurance coverage. Without reservation, I highly recommend Dr. Schlanger! read more

I dread going to the eye doctor, but ever since I found Dr. Jay I'm in eye heaven. He's the best- you get all his attention, even if you need to come back multiple times, and the expertise is impressing. He diagnosed my condition and treated it successfully. His staff, especially Tammy, is great, and the office is beautiful. All in all, a delight. read more

I have visited numerous eye doctors in Los Angeles, and Dr. Schlanger is by far the best. I am satisfied with his service and his hours are convenient. Even better, he doesnt pressure you to get unnecessary glasses or frames. Definitely a must-visit! read more

Dr. Schlanger has been my Optometrist for over a decade. He has impressive equipment to ensure the health of your eyes and fabulous frames to choose from. Same staff for years which tells you a lot! I am really hard to fit for contacts. This year we had great success and a new lens on the market is proving to be just the ticket. I'm so pleased as is my sight!! Thanks to the whole smiling team. And they validate parking! read more

My family has seen seeing Jay Schlanger for a long time. Years ago I tried other optometrists but he is so much better it's unreal. On my last visit he picked up something that could been a vision-threatening problem and urged me to see an ophthalmologist to have laser surgery. I am so thankful for his diagnostic skills and my ophthalmologist was very impressed also. Don't mess around with your vision...have it cared for by Dr Schlanger, a guy who REALLY KNOWS WHAT HE IS DOING. read more

Another great appointment from the Best Optometrist in the LA area. Dr. Schlanger is the most professional thorough eye doctor that I have been to. He is very experienced has a great demeanor. He is easy to communicate with. I drive 30 miles to see Dr Schlanger, and it's well worth it. My family and I have always had a great experience with our appointments. Dr. Schlanger uses state of the art equipment and is a contact lense specialist. I would refer all of my family and friends to Dr. Schlanger. read more

I have been going to Dr. Schlanger for about 30 years. He has always been caring as is his staff. Eye exams are very thorough and he takes your lifestyle into consideration when he makes suggestions. read more

Dr. Jay is great! He really cares. It's never hard to get an appointment. And most importantly, he is great at what he does. When others told me they gave up on trying to fit me for contact lenses, he had no problem. If you are a difficult case like me, he's your guy! read more

I've been going to Dr. Schlanger for many years now. He has always been incredibly thorough, takes his time, explains what and why he's doing what he's doing, and answers any questions I might have. His office staff have been helpful and I have seldom had to wait to be seen. When I have needed referrals for eye-related issues outside his purview he has always sent me to top-notch people. I have referred friends to him and their experience has been equally positive. read more

I have been seeing Dr. Schlanger for almost 30 years. He is the absolute best optometrist in Los Angeles. He has a great demeanor and is very thorough and professional.

I drive a long distance to see Dr. Schlanger, but it is well worth it. I go to Dr. Schlanger for his experience and vast knowledge in optometry. He listens to you and makes you feel comfortable as a patient. read more

The BEST Optometrist EVER! I have been seeing Dr. Schlanger since I was 15,over 40 years ago! He moved to Encino which wasn't as convienent to us, but we keep coming back because he is the most compassionate and knowledgeable Doctor around. He went out of his way to help my daughter Sammi today,coming in on his day off because she had a terrible pain in her eye. In a matter of minutes,he diagnosed the problem, put her into a different pair of contact lens,an eye drop sample,and even a chocolate bar(which she was very excited about) and we were still able to get her back to college in time for her first class. This is the kind of Doctor you should have! He is incredible! Thank you Dr.Schlanger! We do appreciate what you did for Sammi today! :) read more

My sister and I both see Dr. Schlanger and he is absolutely wonderful! I've never waited more than 5 or so minutes to see him at an appointment (a rarity I assure you!). I also really appreciate how he takes care to explain exactly what he's doing and the outcomes of all of your tests. I find that he does more extensive testing (for visual field, etc.) than I've seen at a lot of other optomologists I've been to. Additionally, he was super helpful with fitting contacts - my sister switched to him solely because she was so impressed with how easy he made finding the right contacts for her. The office staff is extremely helpful, and I really like the selection of glasses they offer (I've kept mine for the past 3 years or so). As Bob S. said, he is very friendly and personable - I always feel really comfortable with him. I have no idea what hills m. is talking about - everyone who I know that has seen Dr. Schlanger has absolutely loved him! I recommend him whole-heartedly! read more
