Desert Eye is an eye care practice in Tempe. It provides eye exams, contact lens fitting including rigid gas permeable lenses, and eyewear. The optometrists also counsel patients on eye surgery such as LASIK, implantable contact lenses, and clear lens replacement, and they care for allergies, dry eyes, conjunctivitis, and diabetes.
Dr. John Pearson graduated from the Southern California College of Optometry with honors and joined the office in 1999. Dr. Avakian graduated from the University of California, Berkeley School of Optometry in 2014 and practiced in California for more than 10 years. Optician Joshua joined in 2023 with 13 years of optical experience.
I wholeheartedly recommend Desert Eye to anyone looking for eyeglasses. My experience here left me feeling satisfied and impressed, thanks to Ryan, Debbie, and Dr. Wan. The moment I walked in, it struck me immediately how well-kept the facility and their equipment was. The murals/artworks on the walls were also a nice addition.
I also noticed a vast array of frames available from different brands. If you struggle with choosing frames like I did, ask for Debbie's assistance. I addressed some concerns I had with my old frame and she hand selected frames that best suited me as well as explaining their lenses options and recommending some of them. She was also very transparent about how much we'd be paying upfront and at pick-up. She was incredibly nice and helpful.
I have high astigmatism, so I want to thank Dr. Wan for providing a very thorough test to correct it. I was also impressed with his commitment to hygiene, often washing his hands after touching dirty surfaces, and wiping down his equipment with alcohol wipes. He also has a very vibrant personality and is a very skilled optometrist.
Their services were so astonishing that I had to leave a review, something I rarely do. I'm very excited for my new glasses to arrive.
