    I was out of town on vacation and lost my eyeglasses in the ocean. The staff at Anaheim Eye Care were able to see me with very short notice and took very good care of me. The kindness of the staff truly shines through in this practice. If you're looking for top-notch customer service, this is your place!

  • Blanca G. | Santa Ana, CA | Yelper

    One of the most professional Healthcare offices I have ever been to and I work in the medical field so I can appreciate that. We were called right away and taken care of with minimal wait time. Dr. Vargas himself is very professional and friendly.

  • Karina R. | Anaheim, CA | Yelper

    Could not wait to write this review. Outstanding customer service. Suzy helped me throughout the entire process. She was very helpful, explained all of my options as far as prices. Did not feel pressured when choosing frames. Dr. Vargas was also very nice. Answered all my questions. I recommend this office to anyone. Will definitely return for my next exam.

  • Jessica O. | Placentia, CA | Yelper

    Let me start off by saying this was the best experience I've ever had. I was very nervous when I came in. The staff was very friendly. Dr Vargas was also great. He explained everything thoroughly and made sure we understood everything.

  • Stephanie K. | Anaheim, CA | Yelper

    I'm not one to right reviews on doctor's visits, but this warrants telling EVERYONE about what an amazing doctor and office this is. Parking is easy (a rare find in much of Orange County). The office is upstairs, small, but perfect. I walked in today just to make an appointment, and they were able to accommodate me for a walk in. I was seen by Dr. Vargas within 10 minutes of arriving. No long paperwork, no long wait. Dr. Vargas and his staff were so friendly and helpful from the exam to helping me pick out new frames. I loved the "Lego Glasses"- being able to see how my new prescription will feel, and also felt that I was being educated during my appointment. Everything was explained to me - even after wearing glasses for close to 20 years, I have never met a doctor more engaged with his patients than Dr Vargas. Thank you for such amazing service and care.

  • Mela F. | Irvine, CA | Yelper

    I've been going to various optometrists for 25 years and Dr. Vargas is absolutely wonderful.

    • Clean office and nice front staff - Everything was easy, professional and pleasant when making appointment and during. Although I went for contacts, his frame selection looked pretty good.
    • He is thorough - Doctor takes his time to answer and ask questions, all while explaining things as he examines
    • Doctor V is very nice, personable and caring - He's a family man who'll treat you like family with all the up-to-date knowledge that I was desperately looking for!
    Yay! No more pushy, sales-y, must-get-you-out-asap places for me. So happy to have found him!

    Great experience! Everything was kind and professional from calling to set an appointment, checking in at the desk, to contact fitting and purchasing. Dr. Christopher. I look forward to coming back in and referring others.
