Came here to get glasses and contacts. My previous optometrist was no longer around; so I chose here... based on location and reviews. I was not disappointed. Though small, the facilities are nice and they have a decent selection of frames. Staff is friendly and Dr. Lai is super nice, knowledgeable, and easy to talk to. I'm glad I have a new optometrist!!!

I wanted to start off by thanking Dr. Sharon Ho for all of her and the Eye Works team for their incr... edible help and in such a timely manner. Within a few weeks of my first visit I was able to get assessed, prescribed scleral lenses, and had them adjusted to fit me perfectly. The entire experience was outstanding. I could immediately tell Dr. Ho was an expert with my specific eye disease(keratoconus) and did such an amazing job with explaining every concern and symptom that I had with great detail, a true master of her craft. She even pushed to have my scleral lenses expedited due to an upcoming trip to Europe. I truly felt that my needs would be met and that I had someone fighting for me to see again. She is one of a kind! A few years prior I had gone to another optometrist and team but the experience wasn't great and the option they provided with me was horrendous so I had lost hope of ever seeing again. But once I put on my scleral lenses with Dr. Ho's help all I can say is WOW! I have nearly 20/20 vision now and I couldn't be happier! I'm so excited and relieved that I can now see so that I can pick up my past hobbies and interests. I don't know what I would have done if I hadn't discovered Eye Works of San Mateo, it was truly life changing. Thank you to their wonderful team for giving me back the incredible gift of sight! Also a huge shoutout to Gracie, Michelle, and the rest of the team for being very accommodating and checking in with me throughout the process. I highly recommend stopping by to see how they can help you too Eternally thankful, Travis
