Meng S Lee, OD

I made an appointment to get a prescription for eye glasses and ended up seeing Dr. Lee. He is professional and patient.
When he asked, «Which is better, number one or number two?,» I sometimes found it difficult to answer and asked him to please show me again. He politely said yes and showed me the two choices again.
I’ve been to some good eye doctors in Boston and San Francisco, including MDs at large medical centers. I can tell how good they are based on the questions they ask and the information they provide. I was 100% happy with my visit.
Outside, the counter where you buy the glasses was crowded. It was going to be an hour wait, but I came back the next day and there was no wait at all.
The frames vary in price from about $ 49 — $ 129, and the lenses range from about $ 69 — $ 129 depending on whether you want single vision lenses or the more expensive invisible bi-​focal ones. They also have «computer» lenses. Dr. Lee said that meant the focal point was not «distance» (like regular glasses) and it was not «close» — like reading glasses. The «computer» lenses have a focal point that’s approximately the same as the distance from your eyes to a computer monitor, making it easy for your eyes to focus at that distance. Who knew?
Most of their glasses frames are from brands you’ve heard of. I got a pair from Armani.
One tip: Costco Optical seems like a great place for prescription sun glasses. Although it’s slightly difficult for me to pick out a regular pair of glasses, for some reason it’s easy to find a great looking pair of frames for sun glasses and the prices are less than I’ve seen at other shops.
