Dr. Derrick Woo and his staff are fantastic. I’ve been going to Pacific Vision Care for years, and have recommended them to friends. Dr. Woo is personable and has done a great job giving me the perfect frame and prescription. They make getting new glasses fun and easy. I wouldn’t go anywhere else.
Andrew M.2022-10-30Verified I've been going to Pacific Vision Care since Dr. Schnur was the owner. It was fantastic care back then, and now since Dr. Woo is running it that hasn't changed. He and his team are great; they're courteous, professional, and experienced. I highly recommend using PVC for all of your vision needs.

My husband and I have been coming to his office for years and will continue to do so! Zachary A.2022-07-24Verified Dr. Woo and his staff are extraordinary when providing the utmost care towards their patients' vision. It was very simple to schedule an appointment, and the examination felt very personable. He took his time when examining my eyes and seemed eager to learn more about what's been happening in my life since our last visit. I learned that my prescription was pretty significant, and he helped me correlate that with an appropriate brand for contacts. Additionally, his staff was warm and accommodating to my needs when picking a suitable pair of glasses that complemented my facial features/shape. I would highly recommend Dr.Woo for all your vision care needs, and I will be definitely going back for future appointments! Stacy C.2022-07-23Verified Dr. Woo is the best!

Dr. Woo is very friendly and takes the time to explain things. Recommend Dr Woo & Pacific Vision Care 100%. Minnie J.2022-07-13Verified My brother and I have been going to Dr. Woo/ Pacific Vision Care for many years now. We have always received an excellent level of care and service from this practice. I would recommend this optometric practice to anyone, easy to find parking as well. Rick M.2022-07-08Verified Went to see Dr. Woo because my eyesight was extremely blurry. Was prescribed new lenses. Upon receipt, I took them back because they were still blurry and he rechecked my eyes and told me that I had cataracts and gave me a slightly adjusted prescription. Unfortunately, my cataracts prevented the new lenses from seeing very well at all. Dr. Woo refunded my money, demonstrating that he truly cares about his patients and in making them happy. I had my first cataract surgery two weeks ago. Honesty and integrity goes and long way in my book. Dr. Woo is a credit to his profession. Antonio M.2022-02-24Verified I had a wonderful experience. Very professional. Great service. Highly recommend. Fair prices for good quality lenses and glasses.
