I wish I could leave 5 stars as Dr. Asano was awesome but I had an issue when it came to pricing. When I booked the appointment I was told the upfront price of $50, which I clarified multiple times, only to get charged $94 after the appointment. An extra $39 for a retinal imaging test (I was told you cant opt out of) and $5 for COVID disinfection (which should be on the business and not the patient). I am very disappointed.

Dr. Asano and her team are incredible. I recommend them so much - don't even think of going to another eye doctor. They'e so understanding and kind, but also so good about recommending glasses/frames that make you look good. I get so many complimrnts every time I get new glasses from this team. Dr. Asano is my favorite health professional and truly the actual best.

I had a really fantastic experience! The doctor really spent a lot of time explaining things to me and helping me understand all of my concerns. It was relatively quick and I got new contacts just a few days after. Really pleased with the entire experience.

I recently went to Eyes on Fulton for a new pair of glasses. I was apprehensive because of COVID but the staff takes things seriously. They take your temperature and give you hand sanitizer as you enter. Everyone wears masks and the doctor wears a face shield as well. It was a great experience and they have the latest technology.
