Castro Valley Optometry Group

My 6 year old had to have her eyes checked after a note came home from school saying there might be a problem. She was so nervous! But the lovely ladies in front and the doctor were just FANTASTIC! Thanks for making this a positive experience for my family. I will be back anytime there is a need for an optometrist!

My family and I have been patients with Dr. Sequeira for over 15 years. In the last couple of years with Dr. Quang pleasantly taking care of us as well. Just wanted to say thank you for the professional and extremely warm welcome we have always encounter by the front desk «Brenda & Ronda «as well.
I have in the past and will continue to recommend Castro Valley Optometry.
Thanks again.

Both myself and my family have been long time patients here for several different reasons. The staff, especially Brenda at the front desk and Dr. Quang, are not only professional, but extremely personable as well. I was so pleasantly surprised with the amount of frames to choose from-​I worried I would be overwhelmed but Brenda helped tremendously with the decision process. Thank you Brenda for being patient and honest! And thank you Dr. Quang for being so attentive during my eye assessment and walking me through each step of the process. Also, the cherry on top of this optometry cake is that not once have I had a wait time longer than 5 minutes, which is rare to come across. If I had 3 thumbs I’d say 3 thumbs up.

Rhonda and Brenda are at the front desk and are so helpful and extremely courteous.
Dr. Sequeira has so much expertise and a very calm approach.
The office atmosphere is pleasant and comfortable. Rhonda and Brenda were very informative in assisting me on my very first pair of glasses.
I would highly recommend Castro Valley Optometry for all your eye wear needs. The service is exceptional. I will definitely make this my goto for my my eye health and eye wear needs.

Horrible front desk person. Does not return messages and is horrible to talk to in person & over the phone. Optometrist was fine, nothing extraordinary. I would have given 3.5 stars, but the front desk lady just dulls the whole environment.

My family and I have been patients here for years. All three doctors Quang, Sequeira, and Peng are excellent. They have a wide selection of designer frames. My last visit was with Dr. Quang; she was very thorough and caring.

The doctors are so sweet, but the women at the front desk always act so annoyed with you — as if interacting with customers isn’t their job?

I’ve been coming here for as long as I can remember — I used to sit on my Mom’s lap while I got my eyes checked and I’m 27 now.
It’s been years since I’ve gotten my eyes checked and it’s something I’ve been putting off because my eyesight has been good (no corrective lenses needed!) and I’ve been really busy. When I finally decided to make a check up appointment, I decided to drive all the way from my place in SF back to Castro Valley just to visit Dr. Sequeira.
According to my records, it’s been almost four years since my last appointment, and even then, he remembered me AND the rest of my family. He’s such a great optomotrist and knows exactly what he’s doing. He’s also very open to answering any questions (he asked if I had any questions multiple times throughout my 45 minute appointment). He’s also very personable, asking what I was up to these day and inquiring about any potential hazards to my eyes (long hours at the computer, completing paperwork, working in the labs, etc).
The front desk staff is also pretty nice and efficient.
I found an optometry place down the street from my place in SF AFTER I made my appointment in Castro Valley, so I was considering changing my optometrist; however, after reminding myself why I frequent the Castro Valley Optometry Group, with this visit, I’m not sure I’ll want to switch my optometrist!

Ive been going to CV Optometry for about 12 years now. I came because I had no choice on the matter, my parents go there and by default so did I. The optometrist were all nice, the staff was very rude, but at the tender age of 14 I had not even given that a thought.
Flash back to the present. My employer recently changed on November so I have a new allowance for frames and lenses for this year that expires in roughly 2 months. I already have prescription eyewear and prescription contacts, so I decided to see if I could get some sunglasses.
The staff on duty at that point told me I could not, So I looked at other places to do this. When I found a place that would do this for me they told me I had to release my insurance from this place (I did not even tell them that I would use my insurance here). And when I called they transferred me to some lady that basically was berating and lecturing me while being very RUDE. On top of that she hung up on me.
Well there goes a loyal customer, Good job CV Optometry. You are 4 minutes away from my house, have great opticians, right next to my bank, my dentist, and my grocer. You are so convenient, yet so rude, on principle I will have to take my business elsewhere.

Been coming here on and off for many years and thought I finally add my 2 cents. Doctors are all nice, everyone of them! My last visit, I went in to have them repair my glasses that I didn’t buy from them. The arm came loose and the nose bridge thing was bent. Rhonda fixed them on the spot and didn’t even charge me! How nice was that?

I love the selection of glasses here. The staff is awesome and are totally helpful (I am SUPER indecisive) and I was actually able to find glasses here that I absolutley love… Clean and professional, I will continue to go here for allll my eyesite needs =)

The doctors here are fine but the front desk help are rude and not helpful.
Glasses said to be ready on a certain day is not, they keep wanting us to come back.
My son needs his glasses for school and still not ready after 2 weeks of waiting. Quality of the glasses are not good, I can’t use my bi-​focals I paid $ 500 for when I’m working because the lenses are not right and I still can’t see up close. I don’t want to go back to get it fixed because I don’t want to face the bad attitude of the people at the front desk. They can’t even smile, it seems like smiling is unknown to them.
I’m not going back here, I don’t recommend this place at all.

nice staff, convenient location.
