I love Dr. Blue and Donna, however I've tried to call 2 or 3 times this past week to order contacts and get some trial boxes until they drive. Not once has someone called me back. Really disappointing because this is not the first time this has happened. I continue to be a patient because of how well I am taken care of when I have an in-office appointment but lack confidence in the front desk customer service.

Clean, great Covid standards that made me feel safe, & staff are wonderful. Toni up front is phenomenal. I never would have found my first pair of glasses with a frame I felt looked semi-decent with my face structure & shnoz nor would I have gotten a pair to rest correctly on my nose bridge (not lop sided), had it not been for her keen eye, sense of style, skills in fitting glasses, & ability to point out where each style of frame draws attention. She is the best!!!

A company that's out for your nickel and dime--if you're looking for an Optometrist, I recommend skipping this place and going elsewhere.
First of all, they seem to be the only Optometrist in the area that requires a $50 retinal scan. Normally this would be a non issue, however, they lack transparency on its purpose. Previous places have always shown me what my scan looked like but not EnVision. During billing at the end, I asked the clerk why it was needed and was told it was due to Covid. I asked if it everything checked out and they responded with, "I don't know, I can

So these days it's very hard to go into a doctors office. But we went into Envision yesterday and felt pretty comfortable. The office is spacious so you don't have to get close to personnel or other patients.There were some screens between providers and myself and they all wore masks and required all entering the building to wear masks and have your temperature taken before entering the facility. I like that they are taking the precautions necessary to ensure a good patient experience and putting safety first. Staff was all very professional and kind.

This office is a circus. The office manager is rude to her front desk staff and customers. Dr. Chang inputs the prescription into his laptop which he does in the dark exam room at the end of the eye exam. I've had three family members receive eye exams there including myself and so far he's negative 4/4. They prescriptions were wrong and we'd have to go back. This last time my moms script was completely wrong, but she will not be returning for correction. We ended up going to Costco SLO.

Dr. Blue is the best eye doc I've ever had and I've had MANY. Now my vision issues aren't terrible but I have a mild astigmatism, so no major problems except for having two different RXs for contacts which means 2 boxes no matter how I order. Dr. Blue prescribed new contacts in just one strength and said it should be OK. Well the RX was perfect and that alone saved me SO much money and now I don't have to worry about what eye I put my contacts in.
Dr. Blue is so awesome he even supplied me with a ton of free samples of a *very* pricey contact lenses when I ran out and gave

Found Envision Optometry on Yelp and scheduled an appointment for me annual vision exam.
It was easy to make an appointment as a new patient. Front office staff was polite and professional and found the right appointment that worked for my schedule.
Had my eye exam with Dr. Chang. He took his time in examining my eyes and vision and felt he really listened to what my vision needs were.
They have a huge selection of eyewear. With so many choices it was a little overwhelming to decide on the right frames. However, their staff were really helpful in finding the right frames for my face. I really

I did not have an eye appointment here but came to check out their eyeglasses selection. Upon walking in I was greeted and asked if I needed any help. I told them I was going to browse around and ask for help if I needed it! And wow oh wow. I haven't seen such a variety of hip glassware anywhere else in town!
I must have tried on about 50 pairs of glasses. I didn't try on so many because I couldn't find one I like, I tried on so many because there was just so many fun different options that I couldn't help but check myself out in all of them!
Once I found the pair I wanted

This review is just for their glasses department.
We had our vision exams elsewhere.
We have VSP Insurance and this was one of the places covered by them and my wife needed new glasses and I wanted to find a place covered by VSP and that had a big selection of frames. Boy...was this the right place to come.
Hundreds of frames from easily over a dozen designers.
I loved the selection and the variety of lens types and styles. Something for everyone, no question.
The store is nice and open and very clean and bright.

Once faithful customers, both my husband & I have had bad experiences with Envision SLO & will probably not be returning. After losing my glasses, I ordered the exact same pair. The frames had to be ordered so getting the lenses in would take a few days also. I was happy to take the frames on the first leg of our trip & have them put in elsewhere but no, Envision GUARANTEED their arrival. Of course they did not arrive even close to what was promised. It felt like trickery & I was stuck vacationing for a month without my glasses. For my husband: light bendy expensive frames, nose

When I lived in SLO, a coworker of mine suggested Envision optometry when I needed to get new contact lenses and glasses.
Dr. Chang is a great optometrist. He's very friendly, attentive, and can actually find a solution to your problems. With my previous optometrist, I had the struggle of finding a nice lens for glasses for night time wear since I wear contact lenses. Dr. Chang was able to remedy that situation and I have contact lenses that fit really well and glasses that are pretty focused to where I need it to be.
I since moved to the Bay Area, but I'll schedule my appointments

We were referred to Dr. Jason Chang at Envision Optometry 9 years ago. He is the best!
Dr. Chang works so well with children, teens, adults. He is very approachable, very kind mannered, super friendly. He knows his craft and executes it well.
Envision Optometry staff is excellent! They are professional and welcoming. The environment is very welcoming, comfortable, and beautiful shabby chic :) The array of frames, styles, name brands is huge!
Hubby, sons, and momma are more than satisfied customers. Thank you Dr. Chang and Staff!

I LOVE ENVISION!
I switched from my hometown optometrist to Dr. Blue at the suggestion of a friend and am so glad I did.
Initially, the staff was incredible welcoming. Since then, they all remember my name and greet me when I walk in, and are just generally extremely friendly.
Dr. Blue himself is also super fantastic. My old optometrist wouldn't even consider contacts for me, and Dr. Blue suggested them as a possibility for me and I was shocked. He was so willing to work with me on correct fittings, different brands, etc.
When I finally got my glasses, they worked with me right then
