I was so relieved to find this practice. I moved to Tempe last year and didn't have a local optometrist. I had pain in my right eye and didn't know what to do. I found this practice through VSP and noticed they had good reviews. I was able to make an appointment right away. Dr. Pearson gave me a thorough exam, diagnosed me, and wrote a prescription. He was very kind, reassuring and explained everything to me. The office staff was friendly and helpful. Thank you everyone!
I don't write many reviews, but this place, Dr. Pearson and staff, are over the top "good
at what they do".
Answered questions with ease when I first went in to make an appointment. Validated benefits within seconds. No BS attempt at upselling before I've decided to spend dollars there. Did tests I've never had done, and Dr. Pearson clearly explained why, and that's why I won't go see anyone else from now on. The level of service was top notch.
Fair prices, cool frames, great staff all around
If you're local, this is a local business to absolutely support.
Doctor is very friendly, staff are just lovely good people. My experience was great. The check in paperwork on the tablet was easy, my wait time was minimal, the eye machines were clean and easy to use and I absolutely loved the wide selection of frames and help picking out a nice pair of glasses. Parking on site.
I cannot say enough positive things about Dr. Pearson. From the moment I walked into the office, I felt at ease. Dr. Pearson is incredibly kind, patient, and thorough. He takes the time to explain everything clearly, making sure I fully understand each step of the exam and my options for treatment. I never feel rushed, and his knowledge and expertise are evident in the way he answers questions with both professionalism and genuine care.
It is rare to find a doctor who not only provides excellent medical care but also makes you feel genuinely valued as a patient. I am grateful for the level of kindness and attentiveness I receive every time I visit. I highly recommend Dr. Pearson to anyone seeking an eye doctor who combines knowledge, compassion, and outstanding care.
I had a fantastic experience at Desert Eye! Their selection of glasses is truly impressive, featuring a wide range of stylish and high-quality frames to suit every taste. The staff was incredibly helpful in guiding me to find the perfect pair. Dr. John Pearson was exceptional--knowledgeable, attentive, and made my eye exam comfortable and informative. I truly appreciated the personalized care I received. If you're in the market for new eyewear, I highly recommend Desert Eye; you won't be disappointed with their service and selection!
Please adjust your hours on google if your team leaves arbitrarily.
It's incredibly unprofessional and disrespectful to your customers time. If, on the phone, you tell customers to come at specific times because you are already changing the hours listed on google, please properly communicate or update your hours.
Several times I have left work to come to a closed office.
Otherwise desert eye is decent. Not many options for frames (and they sort of rotate them), but they have a great eye care team for exams and make my eye health feel like the first priority. I will say the front desk can be pretty frustrating to handle and often I receive different info depending on who is working. (Frames not being in, backorder issues, contacts not being in when they said they were etc)
Edit: in response to your response: thank you and i appreciate the change for a better customer experience.
I was called by the front desk the day after and received a thoughtful apology. Just for clarity: I came in the next day to pick up my frames, but they prescription was incorrect by the lab. I am still waiting for the update they are ready and fixed. my frames went on backorder for several weeks and I greatly appreciate your team finding a way to use my old lenses in a loaner frame. It was extremely helpful for a situation out of your hands.
Staff and service were very polite an thorough. Be forewarned that ALL of their frames are wildly over priced. I chose something very basic and generic, yet after my insurance it was gonna be almost $400 just for the glasses (not including the eye exam). I went to costco the same day and got a pair of designer Versace frames for $100 out the door if that gives you any idea. Go for the exam but buy your glasses elsewhere
Best eye dr in AZ! And most beautiful office to boot! Dr Pearson listens to my issues and runs all needed tests accordingly. Overall a great experIence!
