Exams, Eyeglasses, Contact Lenses, Eyewear Repair and Customization.
Your eyes are the windows to the world and we want you to see your absolute best.  We are proud to offer complete, thorough eye exams Tuesday-Saturday with one of our two awesome optometrists for new and returning patients.  This is no fly-by-night optometry here.  Our optometrist spend on average 45 minutes during a comprehensive eye exam. To keep your eyes healthy, regardless of your age or physical health, you should schedule an annual comprehensive eye exam. Our doctors are a joy to visit. For patients not new to the practice, we also offer medical eye health appointments and some urgent eye health services.  

​Dr. Higuchi and Dr. Huang follow SF County COVID health guidelines, wear protective equipment, and sanitize their exam rooms and equipment between each patient.

Routine Eye Exams start at $160 without contact lens services.

Contact lens evaluations and fittings start at $50 in addition to the eye exam rate.

Bring your sunglasses to wear after your eye exam. If your eyes are dilated during your exam, sunlight or other bright lights can cause discomfort or blurred vision.

We see existing patients for urgent or medical eye services.  IF YOU ARE HAVING A MEDICAL EMERGENCY PLEASE CALL 911 OR GO TO YOUR NEAREST EMERGENCY ROOM.  CPMC Davies and Chan Zuckerberg often have ophthalmologists on staff in their emergency ward. 

Medical eye services start at $80 per visit and vary based on services.

Form, Fit, Function, and Flair
Frame care is recommended, especially the lenses. Improper cleaning can result in scratches or damaged coatings. As part of frame care service, We invite patients back for adjustments and routine maintenance for all frames bought from Eye Gotcha.  If you didn't get your frame with us, our experienced opticians can help with many adjustments and fitting services at little to no cost.  

In addition to adjustments we offer many repair services.  Most repair services can be performed by our highly skilled opticians on site.  For the most difficult of restorations we work with specialty vendors who are skilled at the most intricate repairs or modifications.  We also offer refurbishment and customization services for high end optical frames.  Some of these services include but are not limited to:
​
  • Bridge fit conversions for any nose
  • Hand Polishing frames
  • Matting acetate frames
  • Powder coat refinishing metal frames
  • Precision welding
  • Temple retrofitting
  • Custom Clip-ons

Eye Gotcha cannot be responsible for the condition of frames not purchased with us or frames that have left the store.  While we are always as gentle as possible with your eyewear, frames can break while being shaped, adjusted for or re-lensed.
