Alpine Optometry
We opened our doors with the intention of serving the communities around us with the exceptional attention they deserve. As a broad scope practice we see patients as young as 6 months old, fit the latest technology contact lenses, manage emergency eye problems and routinely check for Cataract, Glaucoma and Macular Degeneration. Our state of the art equipment allows us to detect eye problems earlier, and they are great educational tools for our patients.
Services
Dr. Lessani received her O.D. from the University of Waterloo School of Optometry in 1995, and practices full scope Optometry. She is a therapeutic certified optometrist skilled in treating eye infections, allergies, injuries, as well as management of dry eye, and has significant experience with fitting specialty contact lenses.
Comprehensive eye examinations include the assessment of your vision, refractive, binocular, and eye health status and screening for Glaucoma, Cataracts, and Macular Degeneration. Our examinations are followed by a thorough explanation of your visual or ocular needs. The availability and the quality of Contact lenses have improved markedly over the last few years.

I just saw Dr. Lessani for the first time and was so impressed. She is thorough and explains everything clearly but the visit still felt quick and efficient. She also gave me a sample for eye drops to treat my allergies. Everything was covered by my VSP insurance. Our whole family will definitely be going to this office moving forward and I just wish we had switched sooner.

I am so impressed with Dr. Lessani! She gave me a thorough routine exam and demonstrated exceptional expertise and care.

When I compared my new prescription to my current glasses, I noticed a rather large difference in my left eye and asked her about it. She asked that I come in again so she could check the measurement, at no charge. (Her measurement was confirmed.)

She is a hidden gem in Ladera and worth the journey!

Dr Lessani is great. I have used her services since she first came to Portola Valley. I am taking the opportunity since I just had my eye checked​.

I have seen Dr.Lessani for several years. She is the best, patient, compassionate. If you live the area, you needn't look any farther.

I had a really good experience here. Alpine Optometry came highly recommended by neighbors on NextDoor, and I'm glad I came in. My wife will be coming here soon as well, since it was much more enjoyable than the experiences we've had elsewhere. Glad to have Alpine Optometry so close by!

My experience with Dr. Lesani has been overwhelmingly positive. She's taken care of my eyes, provided helpful advice, and measured by eyes carefully for prescriptions. I no longer live close, but I'm happy to make the drive to maintain the level of care I've received.

Dr Lessani is super nice and very thorough. She is very friendly and polite. She made sure I felt comfortable leaving her office knowing she tried to figure out why my eyes felt tired or more difficult to see clearly by the end of the day.

Her receptionist is kind of soft spoken and not your typical perky receptionist but she gets the job done. Nice lady just not much a conversationalist? Only reason why i gave this place a 4 and not a 5 is because I wish there was actually more selection here for the glasses..maybe it wasn't my cup of tea on brands for the frames but I didn't see any

I've visited Dr Lesani a couple of times regarding some issues with my eyes as well as regular yearly check ups. She performs the examination very accurately and explains all the details patiently. The reception is helpful and welcoming.

I purchased a pair of glasses through my insurance. Naomi helped me select a pair of frames that not only fit my face but also was within my price range. I'm very happy with my new pair of glasses and would recommend coming here.

I cannot say enough good things about this place. I have worked with Naomi and she is extremely knowledgeable and helpful in choosing frames, getting the right fit, making repairs and navigating insurance coverage. She kind and friendly too! She never makes you feel rushed or pressured.

The frames at Alpine are beautiful too--awesome variety of current and in-style selections.

Does this place really need another five-star review? Well, they're getting one anyway. My wife has gotten glasses there a few times, but since she doesn't post reviews, and I was there for the whole process, I'm doing the review. I wish I could remember the name of the person who helped us, but she was incredibly helpful and patient at all stages of the process, clearly very knowledgeable and both skilled and meticulous with the fitting process.

My wife and I have worked with Dr. Lessani and her friendly team for a couple of years. Excellent equipment, professional quality within a family office feel. They have a good selection of frames and are excited about quality materials and design. We are happy to have them in the neighborhood! Excellent service. I cannot find any faults.

Having one of those, "Yay! I'm so happy, I just walked in to check this place out" moments!

My primary care doctor is located in this hidden gem - Ladera Shopping Center in Portola Valley. After my appointment with him, I noticed Alpine Optometry as I was walking back to my car. Having just switched insurances, I knew it was time for me to be seen by an Optometrist.

As soon as I walked in I was greeted by a smile and a friendly employee... Nothing intimidating about this place even with it's tasteful decor and beautiful store front. They were able to tell me quickly that

I went into Alpine Optometry with a friend and purchased cleaning solution for my anti reflective lenses. I was treated so well that when I needed to have my eyes examined I made an appointment with Dr. Lessani. She performed a very thorough eye exam and identified an issue with my retina which concerned her and she referred me to a specialist at Stanford. I wasn't able to get an appointment at Stanford for two months.

The other day I started to see black spots darting around and I called Dr. Lessani and she came right to the phone and asked if I could come in right away to see her which

I've worn glasses my whole life. I'm very particular about my eyes and how accurate my prescription for glasses needs to be. That's why I'm so happy about my experience with Dr. Lessani and the entire staff at Alpine Optometry. It's a very warm and professional environment. Everyone is nice and knowledgable. Dr. Lessani did all the pre-testing herself and went over the health of my eyes. She double checked everything, not because of anything I said but because she's that accurate and professional. She is a very warm and gentle person and I never felt rushed.

I needed to special order a pair prescription glacier glasses (for alpine! climbing) , and ended up getting them through A.O. The cost estimate was competitive with every other quote (including online purveyors) I received, but the personal attention from the very helpful and knowledgeable staff was priceless.

The next time I'm in need of eyewear, I'll most definitely be returning.

Summary: Both my wife and I had a great experience at this office and we have been recommending this office to our friends and coworkers. I thought I should drop in here and also post about our positive experience on yelp.

Long version: I work in hi-tech and in front of a computer all day long. My eyesight has gotten worse over the last few years ever since I hit 40, and I wanted to make sure I am going to a good eye doctor. The local optometry office that we used to go to started to surprise us with a new doctor every year, and I just couldn't trust them anymore. It was time for us to change

After 20+ years patronizing an optometry office with rotating staff, my favorite doctors were no longer working there and the location was no longer convenient. I had noticed Alpine Optometry during one of my frequent visits to Ladera Shopping Center, so when it came time for my annual exam, I decided to give it a try. My appointment was yesterday.

Like L.S., I found Dr. Lessani to be personable and professional. During the exam, she discovered a hard-to-correct distortion. She listed some of the possible causes, one of which I had never been told about before. She then ran specific tests for
