SpecialEyes Optometry

Exceed my expectations. For 11 dollars, Dr. Nasim
to have my cholesterol check because she saw something during an eye exam. I have an appointment tomorrow with my primary care physician. Relieved she told me this ahead of time. If you find unsatisfactory with your current optical provider, try special eyes optometry and see for yourself if they are good for your needs.

Great doctor! My husband saw her and liked her a lot, so I gave her a try. She was quick, friendly, and thorough. Dr. Pedarsani and her assistant have a good routine down in the small space they occupy at Costco. Other places I’ve gone to may look fancy with their many rooms and reception area where they display optical products they sell, but you spend a LOT of time waiting in between when the assistant sees you and when the doctor sees you, and you get shuttled from room to room for each machine. You also pay double the price for the exam and they push their products on you at high markups. Here at Costco, Dr. Pedarsani gets you in and out fast without wasting your time, while also making sure they check your eyes well. You don’t need a Costco membership to see her, but you do need one to fill your prescription with the Coscto Optical Department, which the membership price is worth paying for given the low prices of Costco and no pushy sales tactics.

Dr. Pedarsani and her staff provide the prompt, courteous, and personal service which seems unique in these times.
My exam was very thorough, timely, and was given clear, understandable, explanations of my tests and condition.
It is refreshing to be accommodated and treated in such a professional manner.
They definitely have my business for years to come.

She is the best Optometrist I have ever met. Highly recommend.

I came here off the recommendation of a friend when asking to find a cost effective eye exam as I have no vision insurance. For a comprehensive and contact eye exam it was only $ 89. Dr. Pedarsani was not in the office, but her weekend doctor, an Asian gentleman I cannot seem to remember the name of, was there. He was really friendly, and very helpful when discussing contact options. I would happily return here for my next exam. Another positive, if you pop over and order your contacts from Costco Optical, they are cheaper than places like 1−800-contacts.

I took my son to get and eye exam as I thought he needed glasses. Dr. Pedarsani was soo great with him. Patient, funny, thorough. She put us at ease and gave him a great exam. He loved her! She is great with kids! Needless to say, he didn’t need them. Thank God! She and her assistant took time to show him his eyeball picture, which he thought was soo cool. She even did one for me as well. I would totally recommend anyone who goes to Costco to consider getting their eyes examined here. I have been to many optometrists in the last 35 years and she is definitely one of the best!

As a separate entity from the Costco corporation, I will write this review wholly upon the basis of my customer satisfaction at this private practice optometrist.
A small two-​room facility in a corner of my local Costco store, Dr. Pedarsani’s office could easily be missed. I was greeted by the receptionist, a Caucasian woman, and she found my files while I asked questions about different eye exams and pricing.
Upon the start of my exam with the receptionist, I was taken to two machines. Like everyone else on planet Earth, I dislike the glaucoma test, but nonetheless, I gathered the courage to open my eyes as wide as I could while anticipating the small yet powerful puff of air from the machine. After about thirty seconds of uncomfortable anticipation, finally a shot of air met my eye. I let out a sigh of relief, to be met with the receptionist’s criticism of my «glaucoma testing techniques».
«Sorry,» she said. «You kept moving your eye too much.»
Oh, sorry. Thanks for letting me know that it’s my fault. That it’s the customer’s fault. Thanks for blaming the customer.
If I could rate the receptionist alone, I would give her a generous one star for her excellently terrible customer service (the only thing I appreciated was a free sample of contact solution but that’s a given at any optometrist). I was sure my experience here would be terrible until I met the doctor.
It wouldn’t be fair to let the receptionist ruin the optometrist’s review here, and Dr. Pedarsani is one of the nicest, understanding doctors I have ever come across. From chatting about school to medications that we both took, I felt that her friendly personality created a more friendly ambience than from what I had encountered in the waiting room. The exam took all but about fifteen minutes, and she listened to what my specific needs were and willingly met them. After confirming my prescription change, I thanked her and went back into the hostile room to pay.
As I waited once again, another woman was getting an eye exam as well. After paying an extra fifteen dollars for a specific photograph of the posterior portion of her optic organ, the receptionist took a look at the picture with the patient.
«Sorry,» she said. «You moved your eye when I was taking the picture.»
Dr. Pedarsani needs a new receptionist.
