Optometrists in Lynnwood

“About a year ago I had a sudden eye issue, and walked into Visionworks without an appointment. Dr. Alzeir and his team were so kind to see me immediately. It was a pretty scary time for me and I wasn’t sure what was happening. Despite that, they made me feel welcomed. I am extremely grateful for the care that the team had given me. Thank you Dr. Alzeir.“

“Walmart Vision/Optical has a very knowledgeable staff. EJ, Kiaria and Rob are great! Each of them are helpful and their customer service skills are great. Insurance is accepted there and even the one time after cataract surgery Medicare can be processed by them. The Vision Center offers regular lenses as well as Nikon lenses. I got to them for their excellent customer service, wide selection of frames, discounting on multiple pairs and Nikon lenses. A huge thanks to each of them for all their help!“

“I saw Kathryn Thompson for my eye exam and follow up contact fitting and she was so nice. I got there a few minutes early to my appointments and was in and out both times. The entire staff was polite and explained everything really well. I asked if I could just used my old glasses since my prescription barely changed and she said yes. I was impressed with them not trying to pressure me to buy new ones when the old ones work perfectly fine. I will definitely be coming back. She even emailed me my prescriptions so I didn't have to worry about losing the paper with it on it. Super professional.“

“Everything from the exam to being able to get my own glasses adjusted! Being able to feel comfortable in a new environment is so important. Not to only did I feel comfortable I also realized that my fears melted away.“

“Came in yesterday for an appointment, I arrived incredibly early but was seen almost right away. I'd never been to an optometrist before and didn't know what to expect, but both the receptionist and the Dr were very kind and professional, and the whole thing was over before I knew it. I got a new prescription and learned a few things in the process, too! Thanks for everything!“

“Awesome. The entire staff is above & beyond the service to their clients. Definitely will return.“

“I have been going to this practice for 35 years or so, when it was run by Dr Hyde and Dr Pfieffer. During this period, their practice was absolutely first rate. Both were terrific optometrists to interact with. Since the time they both retired, I feel that the practice has taken a slight downward trend.

The optical department has bottomed out, with opticians that are unfriendly and don't seem well qualified in their field. If I could rate this department separately as one star, I would. The last two times I have gotten new glasses prescribed did not go well.

The first incident, I had to debate with the appointed optician at the time, that the glasses were causing distortion in my vision. I followed their advice to adapt to the new lenses for a couple weeks. When my vision continued to be uncomfortable, they eventually found out that the progression on the lenses was done incorrectly and they had to grind new lenses. The second time, my prescription (OD side) had a mistake with the astigmatism measured off incorrectly by 90 degrees. The optician said, "Oh it takes a couple of weeks to get use to it." Not an indication of competence.

It may be time to move on.“
