Although I no longer live in the Bay Area, when Berryessa Optometry was recommended to me, I used them exclusively until I moved out of state. I received the absolute BEST tri focals ever. No head adjustments needed, no bobbing my head around, just super great glasses.

I have been to a few optometry shops over the years. I have had OK experiences, but never been wowed. I gave Berryessa Optometry a couple of weeks ago. I WAS WOWED! From Dr. Mac, to the folks who fit your glasses, to the reception team -- top to bottom the Berryessa Optometry team is amazing. Knowledgeable, caring, amazing follow-through are three characteristics which come to mind. Give them a shot! You wont be disappointed.

I give 1 star because i really do not like the process and feel the staff was really unprofessional. It took me more than 1,200 for the exams, contacts and a pair of glasses. The staff did not explains the details about the 200 extra eye exams fee and just asked me if i am comfortable with that. I am not given the result of my eyes after spending that much. Also the staff made choice for me when he should have asked for my needs. They did not provide even the shipping information. I feel it has been really upsetting.I think they could be more honest and transparent.

Berryessa Optometry and all their staff has been amazing to say the least. Everyone is experienced, personable, and efficient. I appreciate the ease of booking appointments, the expeditious delivery of contacts, and Dr. Mac for making my yearly visits entertaining. My family and I have been patients here for more than a decade and we always look forward to seeing Dr. Mac. Highly recommend this establishment for all eye care needs!

All the crucial examinations before vision grade check are performed by a non-physician non-technician person. I havent received a comment about eye pressure. I have a good insurance and apparently they were focusing on how to extract benefits as much as possible.

My family has been seeing Dr. Mac and it is always been a positive experience. Dr. ..Mac always encourage and gives freedom to discuss all your question regarding eyes, even if they are obvious and generic symptoms.There outside optical staff is also good and lets you try, think and select frames as per your budget.Overall, highly recommended 👌🏻👌🏻

My family has been going to Berryessa Optometry, under Dr. Lim and Dr. Mac for 25+ years, even before they move to their current location. We can always count on extremely detailed eye exams with the latest equipment and technology, explanations, answers to questions, the best, most fashionable and comfortable glasses at reasonable prices. The office is very clean, feels relaxing and pleasant.There are many supporting staff members who streamline very efficiently and professionally the entire process, from appointment to frame selection, adjustments, and follow-up. My family and I appreciate so much the wonderful and thorough care we have received over the years.

Review №24

This optometry overcharge you.I went to buy prescription sunglasses. I opted for Maui Jim Beaches sunglasses.The frames were priced at $440. But, their actual cost is $349.99 only. I got them for $232(My insurance offered $150 on the frames and 20% discount above $150 frames cost). So, I paid $232 for the frames.For the lenses and lenses enhancements I paid another $292.So, I paid a total of $232 + $292 = $524.But, these frames(with polarized sunglasses) are available at $349.99(plus taxes around $32) only at mau jims portal and also at other optometry in San Jose.When I contacted the store manager the very next morning to cancel the order, he refused to cancel it saying the order had already been sent to Mau Jim lab. He didnt even try contacting Maui Jim to see if he could cancel it. I then contacted Maui Jim directly. They said, I can absolutely cancel the order with Berryessa optometry and that they would be able to call into their RX lab(Mau jims) and get that cancelled. But, Berryessa optometry never tried doing that.The store manager also advised me to proceed with my current order and that I can visit other optometry for all my future purchases.

Been a patient of Dr Mac for a few years now. He’s super friendly, knowledgeable and the visits are always quick but not feel rushed. As a mom of 2, I really appreciate that because I’m always on the go, constantly running out of time. Very professional staff, never had a problem with them. They had some interesting new technology too to take pictures of the back of the retina so we can see the eyes health.

Fantastic Place, I went in for new glasses because my old ones were pretty much done. They were able to squeeze me in he very next day for a visit and they were able to dilate my eyes, check my eyes and pick glasses all in the same day! It also was important my frames be plastic because I work next to a gigantic magnetic, so metal frames would pull into the machine, and they were able to get me these great plastic games with blue screen tinting. I will definitely come back for my next appointment!

Review №30

On my latest visit, I found that everyone at Berryessa Optometry is still helpful and knowledgeable. The pre-exam by the optical technician was very thorough (I elected to use the machine that does retinal imaging which helps the doctor during his exam), then I had a great exam by Dr. Mac (who is friendly, patient, and honest - hell let you know what you dont need as well as what you do need), and a lot of excellent help from the optometrist when I looked at eyeglass options.The shop is comfortable and inviting, and with the great service, I would recommend it to anyone needing to have their eyes examined and then purchase vision products afterwards. Plus, they accept most vision insurance plans and this will usually cover half the cost of eyeglasses, contacts, etc.

I HIGHLY RECOMMEND. I have been visiting this place for a little over 2 years now and i cannot recommend this enough. Very friendly, responsive and accommodating staff. The doctor himself is amazing. With an appointment you can be in and out of here in under 15 mins for your eye test. If you are looking for an optometry definitely try this place you would not be disappointed.

I have been coming to Berryessa Optometry since I was in third grade (now 29). They have such a large selection of beautiful frames. They always work with you to make sure you are truly satisfied with your visit. Everyone is very friendly and accommodating. I remember a few years ago I lost my glasses and didn’t have any contacts to wear. They were able to bring me in and gave me some contacts to wear until my new glasses came in. I have been a long term customer and will always be!

The staff and doctors at Berryessa Optometry are very kind and helpful. I have gotten several high-quality pairs of glasses there. They do typically urge you to get new glasses every year (which can get expensive), so if you dont want to get new ones, you have to be very firm and say no. Other than this, they are a great business and I always enjoy coming back.

Ive been coming to Berryessa Optometry for my yearly eye exams since high school, and all the staff here are nice, efficient, and professional, dedicated to taking care of you and explaining technical terms, procedures, vision plans, and options you have for whatever you need. Dr. Mac, my optometrist, is friendly, knowledgeable, and always a pleasure to see. If you live in the neighborhood, this is where you want to go. Although I moved to SF, I still come down here once a year (it helps to still have family in the area).

Dr. Mac is just SO caring and takes the time to get to know you each visit. He also remembers the details so you feel like youre talking to a friend more than your eye doctor! Also, Wendy and Ruth are two of the nicest people working in that office. They really make you feel welcome and at ease. I would highly recommend this office to anyone looking for personable, genuine, and first rate eye care professionals. Thank you Berryessa!

Every visit has been great. Dr. Mac and the staff are amazing. They are friendly and walk me through each step of my annual exam every time. When it came to picking new frames, it was a breeze and also very helpful to take suggestions from an expert.Dr. Mac is very detailed and made sure I understood what the current state of my eyes was. They have a new imaging machine that is pretty cool and shows the layers of your eye. This helps determine your risk for Macular degeneration and I was pleased to find out I am low risk!Very professional. Great selection on frames and sunglasses. I have always enjoyed my visits at this office!

My case is complicated. Last time, I had to visit the optometrist several times to get the contact fit properly. This time, with thorough preparation and professional work, Dr. Mac was able to get my contact fit perfectly in one visit. Very impressed. All the staff at the office are also very courteous, helpful and friendly. Very good experience.

Staff is very helpful and really take the time to help you understand your insurance and what yours covers. They also listen to what you are looking for and help to find glasses that fit you.

Even before I stepped into the office I experienced great customer service from Lisa who tried and tried to get us into an earlier date since we had to book 3 months out to get a Saturday or evening. We received a phone call to check on us since we had underestimated traffic and were running a few minutes late, and once we arrived we were greeted by the wonderful aroma of peppermint diffusing in the office. The assistant who did my daughters pre-check was super nice and Dr. Mac himself was awesome! I can see why the appointments are few and far between. I highly recommend Berryessa Optometry, Dr. Mac, and staff! :)

This place is good but expensive. I chose one regular eye glasses (Marchon Nike 8178). After the cost deduction from discount price and insurance cover, the exam and eye glasses costs me over $731 in total. High Index and progressive are three times the cost from other places. If you want to save money, dont come here.

Though I live an hour away from Berryessa Optometry, it is worth the drive especially when it comes to my total eye care. Time, cost & service are important factors when choosing a health care provider.My appointments start right on schedule & Dr. Lim is always thorough & professional throughout the process & he answers all my questions & concerns regarding my eyesight.I’ve purchased many pairs of glasses throughout the years from Berryessa Optometry & the frame selection was sufficient that I always found a pair that suited me well.The staff’s professionalism, Dr. Lim’s overall care, frame selections & cleanliness of the office are reasons I’ve enjoyed my experiences there.

Just dropped in and had my first exam with Dr. Lim. Very careful and professional service. My last prescription from somewhere else was not accurate, it makes my head hurts if I wear for more than few minutes. I have slightly myopia, normally I dont wear glasses except when I am driving. Dr. Lim figured it out and lowered the strength of glasses. Thanks to him and his team! I will come back for sure to have annual exam and make recommendations. Actually, I have done the referrals already.
