You can't beat the personal service or the friendly attitude. Steve and Judy are professional and courteous. I have been coming here for about 3 years now. Their availability and the service here is far better then my last optometrist. You won't be disappointed.

My son had a wonderful experience getting his first vision exam here! He was nervous at first but Dr. Cao's calm demeanor really made him feel at ease. She has all the tools to keep a child relaxed, engaged and even have fun during the exam. We'll definitely be back for all of my family's eye care needs!

An advance upscale Optometry with great modern day service and experience. I've been going to Vizen for the last two years now since they opened up and Vizen has been nothing but a blast. It's the only optometry that I've ever felt excited to go to my appointment.

1. Dr. Cao is a great doctor that is really good at making you comfortable throughout the appointment.

2. Being only two years old, expect the most advance equipment as well as a clean new office.

3. Great service including instructions over texts or email, easy accessibility to make appointments, as well as being

I actually don't write reviews but had to drop in to share my experience at Vizen!

My daughter has an eye turn and has been seeing Dr. Cao for the past year. She is incredibly gentle, thorough, soothing and patient with my child-- which as a mother is comforting! My daughter's condition really improved! If you're looking for a kid friendly optometrist Dr. Cao is the one for you!

I was so nervous taking my 16th month old baby for her first eye exam because I knew for sure she would cry and not sit still. When I made the appointment, I even warned the gentleman on the phone, that this first time baby patient will cry haha. He reassured me that I will be in good hands with Dr. Cao and he was so right. Dr. Cao was not only kind, thorough, knowledgeable but extremely patient with her. My baby came in for an increasing amount of eye discharge and was afraid it would develop into an infection. Dr. Cao took great care of her and I was beyond shocked my baby did not cry AT ALL

The doctor gets 5 stars, the staff gets 1 star. I am posting this so the customers know what to expect.

The doctor was excellent in giving me a thorough eye exam. She spent lots of time with me, went through all the possible tests, answered all my questions, and made recommendations on other things I am considering. I would say she is one of the best in my area.

New glasses were ordered and the male staff told me it would take 2 to 3 weeks, he also said I would get a notification. Well, I did not get any notification, and when I called at the end of the 3 week period, the male staff said the

I've been having difficulty driving on highways for the last few years. I would feel dizzy and have this feeling like motion sickness. I recently read that it could be a result of Binocular Vision. The inability for both my eyes to coordinate properly. I asked different Ophthalmology offices and none of them could test for this. I was so relieved to find out that Vixen Optometric Center does this test and within one day I had an appointment with Dr. Judy Cao. The office is brand new and very clean. Steve was so welcoming and helped me with all the paperwork. Dr. Judy was amazing, we spend

Beautiful new building and office. Decided to come and check out this clinic because I had met Dr. Cao a while back when she came into B & C Physical Therapy to let us know about her new office. She had a great energy about her and when someone rolls up her sleeves, and physically goes out and does her own marketing, you know she is dedicated to the cause. Here's why you should visit Vizen:
1. Professionalism. Staff was courteous, friendly, and genuine. Dr. Cao was a true professional, being with the patient every step of the way, explaining all the tests and gadgets coming your way, and in the

Dr Cao was recommended to me by a friend. I had an excellent experience with her. She was very detailed with her exam and she definitely made me feel comfortable having my eye exam during this time of COVID. I know everything was already sanitized before my visit because at the end of our visit she mentioned she was going to sanitize for next patient. But even so, during our visit she sanitized in front of me again to assure me that everything was extra clean between patient use. She was very patient in answering all my questions and explaining until I understood and I would highly recommend her

Highly recommend Dr. Cao! She made our 4 year old girl comfortable throughout the exam. She educated and explained every step. Our daughter even bragged about Dr. Cao when she went home. I took my 69 year old mother to her as well. My mother said she was very thorough! Check-in was efficient and super easy. The glasses selection was great!

I must say Dr. Cao...hands down has the most patience with kids. Every other Optometrist we've taken them before to had a full day schedule booked up and rushed to see the next patient. Dr. Cap on the other hand made sure she booked enough time to see both our children, fully examined their eyes (also kid friendly ways) and praised them after by giving them prizes. The office is extremely clean and follows all Covid guidelines. Upon walking in, the atmosphere felt very calm as you are then welcomed by the staff at the front. I must add that their staff are all very friendly. Best part is that

I've been struggling w/ vision issues that was a big part of the reason why I needed a break from grad school. Judy is a big reason I have gained my confidence and the courage to go back to grad school after my leave of absence! Love her so much Thank you Dr. Cao! I feel so blessed!

Went for my annual eye exam and it was awesome just as I expected it to be. They were really clean and sanitary and they made sure to clean everything that I touched due to pandemic protocols. I work in healthcare and really appreciated the peace of mind this gave me. Dr Cao was really thorough with her exam and explained every step to me. They never rushed me during the exam even though I asked a bunch of questions . They even took the time to help me pick out my glasses which my girlfriend says looks great on me. Thanks Vizen team!

The office is located in a new building right off of Las Tunas & San Gabriel. Very easy to find with plenty of parking available. Dr. Cao provides great service and answers any questions you may have. We had many questions regarding Lasik and it’s procedure and she referred us to an office. During our visit, she allowed me to try on many contact lens to my comfort and didn’t make it seem as if I was wasting their product even though I felt like I was. She assured me that my satisfaction was her priority which is very warming. I completely recommend you visit her office for your next screening

Dr. Cao really is amazing. I had a emergency eye issue 2 days ago and really needed to be seen. She immediately saw me and could not be sweeter, more professional and compassionate. She was gentle and explained everything to me step by step as she was examining my eye. She spent time answering my questions, showing me how to apply ointment in my eye and followed up with me later in the day.

Dr. Cao is also a pediatric optometrist, so if anyone is looking for an optometrist for their little one, this is where to go. My nephew is almost 5 and started coming here right when she opened. He typically

My 5 year old daughter was really nervous when I told her we were seeing an eye doctor. But 5 minutes into the exam and Dr. Cao already had my daughter smiling! Dr. Cao was very sweet, warm, and friendly. She made my daughter feel at ease right away. I love that Dr. Cao had colorful tools and toys that she used during her exam that helped keep my daughter engaged.

Dr. Cao explained everything to me and even to my daughter in a very clear way. The office is very nice and clean. The staff is friendly and efficient. I really liked that I was able to fill out forms before my appointment so that I

Dr. Judy Cao is very enthusiastic, positive, and very caring doctor. My boyfriend was having some issues with his eyes and scheduled an appointment at Vizen. She explains everything in detail, answer any questions you at have, and takes her time with her patients.

I have accompanied by boyfriend to vision therapy sessions and Dr. Cao is very patient during the sessions and helps you understand the activities you do and how it helps. Proud to say my boyfriend is her first graduate at Vizen.

Aside from coming here with my boyfriend, I also came to get a annual eye exam some I was running low

Dr. Cao was super professional, informative, and caring. My 3 year old son was feeling uncomfortable with his eyes for the last 5 days... We were waiting for this whole coronavirus to die down, but as the days went by he was feeling more uncomfortable and his eyes started to hurt. So I found Vizen Optometric on yelp and decided to contact them. They were very professional, accommodating, and fast on replying us back. I was scheduled to come in the very next day in the morning.
When we arrived at the office, we were greeted and Dr. Cao saw us right away. She was very professional and made my son

I'm so happy that I found a Optometry closer to my place. I used to drive to Whittier for my old optometry.

Upon going to my first appointment with Dr. Judy Cao, I didn't realize her brand new office was at a newly built medical office building in the heart of San Gabriel Valley. It's so up to date with all her new eye center equipment and new eye glasses and sunglasses. I made an appointment with her staff a week ago.

One of her staff called me to remind me about my appointment and told me I can fill out my new patient forms online. When I went to my appointment it saved me
