Eyewear & Opticians near Orinda

“I’ve been seeing Dr Eng for almost a decade. Scheduling is easy, staff is very nice; they don’t push extra exams on you or upgrades. Overall it’s excellent.“

“Doctor was informative. Friendly staff. Communicated well. They were able to squeeze me in for an appointment since someone cancelled last min.“

“So easy and wonderful to work with…. I dealt with Cameron when I was there and can only say positive things. I am sorry I did not know about the optical department in Target Emeryville earlier!“

“Dr. Rosner and Dr. Woo are the best optometrists I’ve ever seen—and I’ve worn glasses since high school. They don’t just check your prescription and rush you out; they’re thorough, attentive, and take the time to answer questions.

Whether I have a lot to ask or I’m short on time, they adapt and make the visit easy and comfortable. I’ve been seeing them for over three years and can’t believe I’m only now leaving a review. Highly recommend.“

“Friendly and helpful they told me my glasses would be ready in 3-4 weeks they were ready in a week.“

“Great experience, as usual. I appreciate the new tech that makes for a quicker and more comprehensive exam.“

“UPDATE 6/11: I just picked up my Cartier sunglasses and I am pleased.

For starters.. it took a good amount of weeks to get them. However, that is understandable because there is only 1 Cartier lab in the U.S. (Told to me by Orion Optical). So it was to be expected. I was super hype, so I called each week after paying to see when they would come in. When I called, they tasted me as if I were family. They knew exactly who I was, they spoke warm and welcoming. They always gave me any information that they had at that time.

Now onto the sunglasses. This is my 1st pair, but not my last pair of Cartiers. They are literally featherlight and look so good on my face and against my skin. The gradient color pops, the signature C..pops and I look good as hellbin them! I am very happy with this purchase and happy to have found Orion Optical

Update 5/23/26: Both my wife and I picked up our glasses. Her's came in about 2 weeks ago and only the Chopard regular frames were ready to be picked up today. My sunglasses are on the way!!! We both love the way our glasses look on our face. All the support that we received during the shopping process were intentional.

Disclaimer: My wife's regular frames needed to be readjusted twice and her sunglasses require more UV protection. However, all times were a flawless process. They had get come on, she discussed her issues, they listened and then executed. I love that about them. They make it feel like part of the family 100%.

Found this gem via Google. My wife and I wanted to go somewhere that had a vast amount of designer glasses. I called this spot and spoke to Veronica. She let me know that they take our insurance and they close at 6pm today. I told her that was perfect and that we would be there soon.

We got here and met with Veronica. She was super nice and very very knowledgeable. She walked me around so she could get an understanding of what I was looking for. I tried on Gucci, Cartier and more. She and my wife were so helpful in choosing my frames. I wanted both a regular pair and sunglasses. Victoria's patience was top notch..lol. Eventually, I found exactly what I needed. I chose a pair of Chopard frames and a pair of Cartier sunglasses. My wife chose Philipp Plein for both a regular and sunglasses frames. We did not feel like we had to buy anything. We were made to feel special with our purchases.

My wife's turn was next. Victoria was amazing with her as well. Veronica showed her many that hit the mark. My wife found a very nice pair of regular glasses.

Veronica has excellent customer service.

We did not know that a gentleman that was working there was actually the owner. His name is Sid. He is so nice and his energy is unmatched. He is in the picture with his wife (Mahnaz) and his son (Salar). His wife actually helped my wife pick out a pair of shades which she had no intention of getting because she normally wears transitional. His son is super warm and welcoming. We pray he does well on his Finals!!

Overall, I highly recommend this spot. They are having a BOGO sale for the month of May. You will not be dissatisfied with your purchase from here. They have a variety of glasses to choose from.“

“Isaiah helped me with adjustments for 3 pairs of glasses and made sure they fit properly. Great exp!“

“Came in an hour before closing time. Met Dr. Lam herself and she was very welcoming. Dr. Lam helped us pick my son's new prescription glasses. Everything went smoothly. She showed how much she cares for her patients. Definitely will be back again for myself too.“

“We are visiting from out of town for the holidays and my daughter broke her frames. We really needed replacement glasses quickly and were so happy we went to this store. Gita was so kind!! The store happened to have the exact frames we broke in stock, and Gita just switched over the lenses - we were out in less than 15 mins, and she gave us a great price. It was such a wonderful experience! 10 out of 10 recommend!!“

“The exam and lense order process was easy and thorough. I particularly enjoyed working with Dr. Hansen for her clear explanation of the vision issues I am facing and need to be mindful of.“

“This is the best service I've ever had at any optometrist. Great care, and super friendly. Incredibly helpful picking the right frames that suit my face.“

“Had a great experience here today! I'm upset I didn't get the names of the two ladies helping me, but I we had good conversation and I found my sunglasses! Very knowledgeable and super helpful. Will definitely be coming back again (not just to pick up my glasses haha). Highly recommend. What a great experience! Oh and they even fixed my glasses that had a stripped screw for free. I was about to buy them again!“

“Timothy was very helpful in my purchase of my Versace eyeglasses. He was very knowledgeable about everything regarding anti-reflective the anti-blue. It was a quick and easy purchase.“

“After 7+ years, I finally got myself another pair of glasses. Two pair actually! Aimee was so friendly and worked with me to pick out the perfect pair of glasses. She had me try on nearly every style in the store and got me to venture outside my comfort zone. I tried on a pair I would never have tried and love them! I got them in two colors. My old glasses were so old, putting the new pair on was an adjustment and Aimee went above and beyond to adjust them perfectly for me. I will definitely recommend The Optician to everyone.“

“went there with a friend on a sunny afternoon and honestly had the best time. the place is pretty chill and we ended up staying way longer than we planned.“

“Customer for over 30 years, great service, good people
Fixed my glasses after I stepped on them, second time, no charge !“

“From the people who tested me to the amazing front staff especially Sabrina who helped me pick out my glasses was great. As someone who gets anxiety from things like this they explained everything perfectly and were so helpful. I have to give a big 10/10 to Sabrina for how sweet she was and kept me laughing while I tried to decide what glasses I wanted. Thanks for a great experience.“

“Thank you for your professional and kind services! I really like my new pair of glasses and recommend here.“

“My experience with Next has a 25 year history. The frames are the best in the Bay Area. I’ve never had a problem with glasses I’ve gotten here. I have 10 pairs from Next. Love this place. You will too“

“The front desk staff is amazing and very welcoming. Annette (my apologies if I spelled her name wrong) is very knowledgeable and so helpful. Always with a smile and made our visit very pleasant.“

“Dr. Le and her friendly staff were helpful and patient with me for my eye exam. Very grateful that their office takes MediCal, I would highly recommend checking them out!“

“Monument Optometry got my prescription right. The new prescription replaced my my last two bad prescriptions (from UC B Optometry Clinic). Lenses are now replaced on my three previous frames. Doctor and staff were kind and professional.“

“I needed a new pair of glasses before my trip, and I was in a time crunch. Rims and Goggles of Berkeley team assured me that I would get them done in time, and they definitely did! Superb customer service, everyone I talked to on the phone and met in person was incredibly helpful. Shout out to Carol, who was super friendly and sweet. She made sure my new glasses were fit and comfortable to wear, even made a little adjustment that I wasn't aware I actually needed. It's a bit on the pricey side but most definitely worth every penny!“

“This is the OG place. Got an eye exam here looooooong time ago and forgot to leave a review. Thank you for the service!“

“Todd adjusted my glasses and helped me understand how to pick better frames in the future that will fit my face properly! Highly highly recommend for expertise and very kind customer service.“
