It is always a pleasure to visit Focal Point! My family has been using Dr Arrellano for at least 20 years. The staff is so welcoming and pleasant.Of course, their expertise & knowledge is reassuring. A thorough and knowledgeable exam is always received.I highly recommend FPO to everyone.

A lot of changes since my last visit almost 3 years ago. Everyone was courteous and very professional. The doctor was very detailed and thorough in going through the exam. The staff was also very patient and allowed me to take my time so I can pick the best frame for myself. Overall a great experience.

I’ve been going to Focal Point since I was in 5th grade. I’m now 27, just to give you an idea of how pleased I have felt with the services I’ve received from everyone here. Not once have I felt the need to find a different optometrist. The front desk staff and optometrists as well as the insurance/financial staff are kind, patient, and always explain things in detail for me. I can’t thank everyone enough for their wonderful customer service. Highly recommend coming here for your vision needs!

They were nice. Miss Dr. Alvin Areanno. My only concern was they did not dilute the eyes. Then they work with the state of the art latest equipment. Very impressive. They all were very attentive as well. Thanks to Andrea for helping me chose the frame. Overall a positive experience.

I have been coming here for quite some time now. I never have to wait more then 10 minutes to be seen. The staff is so polite and gracious. I’ve ran out of contacts many times in the past and they always have been their to help with an extra free pair. Thank you Focal Point (Fullerton) for your honorable services and always working with me. :o)

Everyone was so nice and helpful. The doctor showed me pictures of the inside of my eyes and compared them to other eyes so I can see what potentially unhealthy eyes look like, but mine are healthy! He also gave me a free sample of eye drops and a coupon if I need more. Additionally, I was assisted by two others in finding a pair of glasses that suited me, both in the frame of my face and in color. Highly recommend!

It’s nice experience . They are all nice and hospitable . Dr Chris explain everything I need to know , very welcoming . I recommend this eye clinic . One tip if you will an appointment with them just make sure you give them the right info like your phone number and email address cause they will send u a questionnaire to answer and that helps you save time of waiting .. I’ll give them 10 stars for that experience.

Great experience from start to finish. Professional and courteous staff all around. Everyone was polite and great to talk to. The exam was quick and thorough all at the same time. Getting frames was easy thanks to Ric finding options that would fit my face well and look good with my complexion. I had a selection to choose from and they all looked/fit great. I cannot recommend these wonderful people enough. If you need glasses, go here and you will not be disappointed.

I love going to Focal Point Optometry in Fullerton. There is no waiting to be seen by the doctor. Their equipment is state of the art and the doctor does a fabulous job explaining the condition of your eye and vision. I spent about 45 minutes with Ric who decoded all the various options I have in selecting my frame and lens. His knowledge was incredible and his demeanor and persona was pleasant and professional. Thank you for taking good care of my eyes! I highly recommend them for all your optometry needs!

This place is full equipped. Doctor is very kind and experienced. My mom has presbyopia because of aging and her old reading glasses were not clear. She took an eye examination here and got the new prescription by doctor’s help. There also have a ton of frames to choose. My mom’s eyes are itchy sometimes, the doctor also gave us a $5 off coupon to buy eye drops.

I have been going to Focal Point for 17 yrs. I’ve never had an issue with any of the staff or Drs. The amount of care and time they give you is really amazing. You are not pushed out the door nor feel like you’re just a medical file to them. Everyone there is great however I just wanted to say that Ric is amazing. He helped me choose the exact frames that I was looking for with very little detail. He did the same for my teenage daughter. I tried to help her but could not find what she was looking for. The young lady that was helping us picked out a few frames for her but still not quite what she wanted. Ric noticed we couldn’t find her frames & gave her suggestions. He was closer to what she was looking for than I was. Thank you Ric. Thank you all for always making our visits to your office a great one.

Always a pleasure to visit this location. The Dr’s take time to explain how the eye works and what is actually going on. Great selection of frames and knowledgeable staff makes sure you get what you need to cover occupational and recreation needs. Third year in a row going here and they always invest in new equipment and testing methods. Highly recommend

I have been a FPO customer for many years. I like the customer support, texts reminding me of appointments and providing status of my new glasses. The staff is very customer oriented and follow very strict safety rules to protect themselves and the customers against possible contamination.They also have a very good variety of frames (I love the Oakley and Maui Jim). At times they also have offers on frames.

Focal Point Optometry always does a great job. They are professional but friendly and they don’t push products or treatments on you. I go in every year for my eye exam and each time they accommodate my needs. I would recommend checking them out if you are in need of an eye doctor in Fullerton.

I have gone to Focal Point Optometry twice and have always had a good experience. They are timely and are able to complete my eye examination quickly. I have also noticed their selection of glasses have improved and they added better brands (Dior, Moscot, Prada) so I would recommend checking them out if you can!

The office staff is on top of it. They are fast and efficient. Doctor Shea was the perfect combination of listening to my concerns, informing me of my options, efficient measurement of my eyes, and personal attention. I highly recommend him as an optometrist and the staff at Focal Point Optometry.

Friendly and accommodating staff. My appointment had not showed for the day even though it was scheduled ahead of time. The staff was quick to apologize and still fit me in! Most places would’ve said sorry come back on such n’ such day. They definitely care about their patients and always make you feel welcomed. They have heavy COVID safe practices in place so you don’t have to worry while your there. My whole family goes there for our optometrist needs.

We’ve been patients at Focal Point since not long after they opened. Dr. Arellano and his team have taken great care of our entire family, including my husband’s particularly challenging eye condition. I always recommend Focal Point if someone is looking for an optometrist!

If you are looking for a keratoconus specialist look no further. I was referred here by Dr. Otsuji 5 years ago and since then, Dr. Arellano has always listened to my concerns and taken time to address them. I recommend Dr. Hsieh also. The staff is very attentive and professional at both locations and I will continue to visit in the future.

My family has had 3 serious eye emergencies on Fridays before long holidays and Dr. Alvin and his staff have come through with help each and every time. They are professional and calming and take all the time needed to give us aid so we could function through the holidays and return to get the permanent solution. They are the best you can get. THANK YOU DR. ALVIN AND HEATHER AND THE WHOLETEAM. You are the best.

I switched optometrists recently and I have mixed feelings with my experience at this new service provider.1. The front desk staff was very professional and nice.2. The optometrist was very welcoming, knowledgeable about my prescription and how my driving is effected. She just seemed so upbeat, kind, professional but friendly.3. Glasses/sunglasses selection is good not awesome.4. Turnaround for delivery of glasses was sooner than expected.5. They were honest about what I was being charged for and did not try to over-sell me on other items I did not need nor ask for.6.The personnel was knowledgeable of VSPs discount for select name brand frames. I didnt even have to provide the coupon.7. Got my corrected glasses back from the lab and they are perfect. No blurriness, no transitional lenses, no issue. Looks like the issues with the glasses the first time around was on the lab as they messed up my prescription and probably gave me someone elses altogether.Cons1. The glasses were blurry and almost gave me a headache. It was explained that a new prescription (different from old pair) may be blurry and take a week to get used to.2. The glasses ended up have transitional lenses which I purposely said I did not want because I would prefer to have a second pair of frames...prescription sunglasses. To Focal Points credit this was an error made by the lab. I just feel that Focal Point should check all orders before calling in the customer for pickup.3. I didnt leave the parking lot before realizing the mistake and thus, took them back. They said they would send them rush on Monday (it was Saturday). It is now Friday and I still do not have the glasses even though the order was rushed.4. When I originally set up the appt. I told a clerk that I would fill out the new patient app online and she said, okay. When I arrived for my appt and noted my completion of said form I was informed the application did not work. The woman who took my appt should have known such. I wasted time completing the application online and still had to do it in writing at the clinic.I give them a neutral score because front desk and professional staff that have good attitudes and are helpful beats the opposite any time. Id rather have courteous/professional staff in the end. A bad attitude can get you a 1 star rating really fast.
