A LITTLE NOTE ABOUT US
Hope is about believing that the future can be better than the past. I’m sure we’ve all had a time where the discount rate is everything; like living on instant noodles in college or booking a $39 flight, with water and legroom not included. At some point, you realize there are certain things in life worth valuing more than that. Like your eyes. Dr. Dinh’s grandfather had a motto in life, even as he was becoming blind:
“There is always hope.“
That became the inspiration for our office name, and drives our dedication to bring the very best to the people we serve.
WHICH IS BETTER
1 OR 2?
Who we are
- Personalized eye care. A comprehensive eye exam is so much more than “which is better 1 or 2.” We check over 25 aspects of your eye, front to back.
- When it comes to something as precious as eyesight, quality matters. We utilize premium eyewear & advanced lens technology to help you see the difference. If you’ve upgraded your iphone since the iPhone 1, let’s give your eyes the same benefits.
- Our patients are family, we’ll go the extra mile to ensure your visual needs are heard and helped. We value long term connections with our patients. We’d rather take care of all your visual needs at our office than release your script into the confusing (and often misleading) world of glasses/contacts.
Who We Aren’t
- A rushed 10 minute eye exam factory that leaves you seeing as clear as this text.
- Providers of cheap, discount glasses. We have seen lens technology from ten years ago being sold today, wrong prescriptions, lenses that aren’t ANSI-standard approved (dangerous & shatter), and frames that while cute and trendy, also break before you’ve had a chance to show ’em off. Join our movement to Treat Eyes Better.
- A place that focuses on sales, not eyes. Those are shops that would rather sell you on a low quality deal, rather than a medical office that provides long term insight on your eyes, eye health, and new solutions to visual needs.

The level of attention to detail and patience is remarkable,
I have been a patient for about four years and have seen all three doctors. The level of attention to detail and patience is remarkable. This office has state of the art equipment and the doctors think outside the box. I trust my eye care treatment to Dr. Dinh, Dr. Choi, and Dr. Guevara for life! I am grateful for the kindness and comfortable service I received. There were times when I called in concerned regarding an unusual eye episode and was able to either talk to or come in the same day to see Dr. Choi or Dr. Guevara. Explanations provided are detailed and understandable. I am happy to recommend Hope Vision Care. You are in great hands!

He is also upbeat and curious and takes an interest in his patients beyond their presenting problem. Office staff is courteous and efficient. You will like the personalized approach in this office!

This is the first pair of progressive lenses I have gotten that are actually perfect!,
I am so pleased with the progressive lenses I just purchased including my sunglasses. I am particular about my glasses as I do bookkeeping and need clear vision to do my work which many days runs to 10 hours or more. Dr. Dinh takes the necessary time to do the exam plus explain any issue that I am having. This is the first pair of progressive lenses I have gotten that are actually perfect! I can’t thank Dr. Dinh and her staff enough!

The office staff all go above and beyond in terms of customer service,
My daughter and I love Dr. Choi! We’ve been seeing him for 5 years now and followed him from his previous practice to this location. He’s kind, knowledgeable, thorough and personable. The equipment is clean and the technology in the office is up to date. The office staff all go above and beyond in terms of customer service. It’s a pure delight to see them all for our annual exam and frame pickup. I highly recommend this office for all your eye care needs.
