And they always walk you through your needs and options to ensure you fully understand your vision care.

Eyewear

With over 1,800 designer glasses and sunglasses to choose from, our vision centers offer an extensive collection of stylish, durable frames you won’t find anywhere else. Our opticians have the attention to detail and passion for eyewear necessary to match your prescription, style, and day-to-day activities with curated frames and lenses that check all your boxes and more.

Dry eye therapy in Laguna Hills

Dry Eye Therapy

Dry eye disease occurs when a low quantity or quality of tears prevents your eyes from lubricating properly — but all kinds of factors can cause this to happen. Using advanced LipiScan® technology, our doctors can diagnose the causes of your unique dry eye case as soon as possible, then provide lasting relief with our TearCare® and LipiFlow® dry eye therapy devices, based on what’s best for you.

Myopia control in Laguna Hills

Myopia Control

Myopia, or nearsightedness, is a common eye condition that results from a misshapen eye and makes it difficult to see distant objects. While standard glasses and contacts correct myopia, they don’t treat it, meaning it can worsen over time, leading to stronger prescriptions and a greater risk of developing eye diseases down the road. We offer several myopia control options, like multifocal and ortho-k lenses, to correct and slow myopia for clarity now and into the future.

Eye disease care for all ages in Laguna Hills

Eye Disease Care

When it comes to preserving crisp sight, early detection is the best preventative measure against eye diseases such as glaucoma, cataracts, and macular degeneration. Our optometrists are proud to use safe, effective, and comfortable testing: every patient receives Optos retinal imaging and ocular coherence tomography (OCT) so we can catch and begin managing eye conditions long before they impact vision — or quality of life.

Avulux sunglasses in Laguna Hills

Avulux® Migraine & Light Sensitivity Glasses

Patients experiencing migraine and light sensitivity may be surprised to know that about 60% of migraine symptoms are instigated by light. Light colors known to lead to or worsen migraine attacks include blue, amber, and red. That’s why our optometric centers proudly carry Avulux® lenses for eyeglasses, which are clinically proven to filter out 97% of harmful red, amber, and blue light while still allowing up to 70% of gentle green light to pass through. This helps patients reduce or even eliminate the effects of their migraine, letting them return to their daily routines more quickly.

No Optometrist has EVER taken as much time as Dr. Yamamoto has in order to give me the best vision possible. I am not a difficult person just a difficult fit. I thank Dr. Yamamoto and the staff at La Paz Optometric for showing such kindness and patience. And ..Yeah ...we finally got the correction!!!!

Great experience. Very professional but also relaxed atmosphere. Dr Yamamoto was very knowledgeable and helped me figure out what was causing my dry eyes. Light years better than the mega Goliath and impersonal factory that Harvard eye care became over the years. So glad I switched.

Technician administering visual tests extremely knowledgeable and friendly.4. Dr. Michael Lum clearly explained my results and my options so that I would receive the right prescription for my multiple visual needs5. Huge selection of frames to choose from which could have been overwhelming but Erin hand selected many for me to choose from and between us we were able to quickly find the perfect pair.I have never been excited to go to for an eye exam or to pick out glasses but I now look forward to my appointments at this office.

LaPaz Optometric is a wonderful practice, both for regular eye exams, glasses, and contact lenses, and also for more complex well eye visits. I've had two eye related health issues in the last 18 months, and both times the team here was able to quickly fit me in, do a thorough exam, and leave me treatment and guidance that made me confident in the health of my eyes. Plus, everyone is so friendly, I don't ever have to sit around and wait, the equipment is very modern and confidence inspiring, and all three doctors I've met are very knowledgeable, great with patients, and just plain nice people! Highly recommend!

Full CoVid safety protocols followed here. The staff is super friendly and knowledgeable. The doctors use state of the art equipment to really look at your eyes. They have an incredible selection of frames at reasonable prices. They also offer curbside pickup.Edit: downgrading to three stars. I called to make an appointment on one day. The very next day I received a text telling me that they needed a confirmation call / text from me to keep the appointment. That's absolutely ridiculous and a massive waste of my time. I'll keep bringing my daughter here, but I will not waste my time as a patient myself.

Mission Viejo optometry Center was very attentive to every detail in helping me make decisions and maximizing my vision benefits. I wear multifocal contact lenses and have found success in seeing both distance and close-up, which I understand is a rare feat.

Yesterday I had my routine eye exam. Not really sure where to start with this review. The crew was amazing, professional and kind. They took their time in running all the tests and explained everything in details. After completing all the tests, Dr. Walsh took her time with me to address all the concerns, prescribe the best lenses for my glasses and contacts. They by far the most professional optometry center I’ve ever dealt with. As a patient never been that happy. Simply if you have vision challenges. That’s the place you want to be to get your treatment.So glad that I found my optometry center.The most highly recommended vision center. If there was more then 5 stars I would have definitely gave it to the team.That’s the place you should go to if you want to walk out with a smile on your face. They magically know how to draw a fat one on your face.

I've been coming to this optometry establishment for years, and have always had nothing short of a positive experience. They are now under new management, but the service provided is still exceptional.I booked my annual eye exam, and was going in feeling comfortable. On our call, Jody had asked me to make sure to bring my mask and to fill out some paperwork via email prior to my appointment, to reduce contact and time spent in the office. Upon arrival, I was asked to call the front desk to assure that I would be socially-distanced and everything was cleaned before entering. Once entered, Jody took my temperature and then walked me through some eye tests. She made sure to wipe all of the equipment down before use, which was very assuring. I then walked into my exam, and there was a sign on the chair before sitting down stating that it had been cleaned. I had an eye exam with Dr. Hsieh, and was extremely happy with her professionalism and knowledge. We ended up trying out some new contacts! James checked the schedule and had me book a 1-week follow-up appointment to make sure that they were to my satisfaction before ordering them.I came back a week later with no problems, and ended up purchasing a year supply of contacts (which were shipped to my house promptly - in less than a week).Overall, they are one business that is following COVID guidelines well, and I will continue to give them my service!

Doctor Chi on my yearly eye exam discovered on the screening retinal pictures a tear in my left retina with possible retinal detachment. He assisted in contacting my Primary Care Provider and because of his efforts I got an urgent referral to a retinal specialist who was able to save my vision in the eye. I will be eternally grateful for the level of excellent care and caring I received.

Brookhurst Optometric has been my eye doctor for over 20 years starting with Dr James Cooperman. I recently went and did a full set of exams, ordered new glasses and new contacts. The staff is always very friendly and extremely professional. They have a great selection of frames, if you want a new frame with glasses. They make the experience a true delight and I would recommend them for all.

I usually don’t post but Brookhurst Optometric Center has exceeded my expectations. It used to be a different owner but they did a wonderful job continuing the service.

Such a wonderful experience with this office. Definitely will come back again.

Was greeted by the receptionist as soon as I entered the store. She was expecting me and was prepared to start on a series of tests, which she administered. Following these tests, I was ushered into the optical testing room where I met Dr. Chi. He administered the eye tests, decided on the corrections to my existing lenses, and handed them off to the lady who would do my glasses fitting. He also went over the test results that peeked into my eyes (no dilation required!) which indicated I was free from any bad stuff. I was allowed to keep my sunglasses frames (which I liked) and received the new glasses (sunglasses and clear) one week later. Wearing the new glasses now and am delighted with them. Pleasant and efficient operation which I recommend to anyone.

I went in for my annual exam. I expected to be greeted by a friendly staff and I certainly was! I was told Dr Cooperman himself retired which was no problem for me as I have never met him and was always examined by another doctor on staff. I must say that this crew working there is very friendly and professional. My appointment was on time, and I felt very well taken care of. I felt like they took the time to make sure I was getting the best service. The entire staff seems very knowledgeable and efficient. I would certainly recommend this office to anyone!

Husband has an urgent need to have his eye looked at, no appointment… the office scheduled him for next day, but asked him to stick around for a bit as they worked on getting him in sooner. He was seen later in the day and given a very thorough examination and testing. They went above and beyond for him.In addition, we have experienced the staff to be very professional, patient and kind when calling to change or make appointments. Also when checking in to be seen.The office is very clean

I give two thumbs up to the dedicated office staff. I would recommend the Brookhurst Optometric Center to anyone who needs immediate vision care. I was a previous patient and hadn’t been seen for 1.5 year. I took a chance a walked in hoping to be seen.I was greeted by Jacob who was warm and welcoming. I explained my vision problem and he asked if I wanted to be seen today. I said “yes”. Jacob checked my insurance and explained me the tests that would be performed. He was so kind and helpful. I was seen 30 minutes later and had a full eye exam and was fitted for contacts. I was so thrilled. I was seen by Dr Chi. Excellent Optometrist. He was very patience with me and explained and answered every question I had. He even assisted me by plucking sn ingrown hair from my eyelid. Wow! I checked out with the girls who were delightful . I had the best experience. The entire office staff was friendly and very helpful. Stop by and see them! You”ll be happy you did.

I had a good experience at this office for my eye exam. I've been having a little trouble seeing my phone with my glasses and Dr. Chi gave me a solution on my new ones. The staff were also very helpful since I walking in the door to me choosinga new frame. They treats me like a family instead of another patient. Not having to dilate this year because of the tech they have might be one of the best part.
