Dr K and everyone who worked with him on my behalf are extremely thorough and found my problem and found what was not going on. I will send everyone I know to see Bliss and Associates.

I used to see Dr Rabin here and now see Dr Khoshnevis. They are both good doctors but always trying to sell another procedure. I had cataract and glaucoma surgery on one eye and then had a little bit of fussy view but it is off to the side. (It happens after cataract surgeries very often) They will tell you that they can zap it to get rid of it. My sister goes to specialists in IL and her ophthalmologist told her not to get rid of the fuzziness because it's not good to go back and do more laser procedures on the eyes, if not necessary, and that your brain will eventually tune it out and you won't see it.

Sure enough, while talking to her I realized that mine was gone. Not sure when that happened, you just get used to it being there and then over time I didn't realize it was gone until we were discussing it. It probably took a couple of years but it only really bothered me in bright light. Yet every time I see Dr Khoshnevis he mentions he can take care of it for me. I want to go to an ophthalmologist who cares about my long term health and not his pocketbook!

Friendly and helpful optical staff. Sean assisted in finding frames that would be best for my eye profile. Ended up getting some lovely Bebe frames.

Dr Kennedy is very good at what she does. She's friendly and explains things well. I was worried when Dr Yaminishi left, that I would have to find another office, but I decided to give Dr Kennedy a try and she has filled the spot perfectly!

I had an eye bleed with a bubble that happened overnight and was given an appointment within 90 minutes of calling the office. My eye was checked, given instructions for care and reassured it would clear in a few days.

Great. Great. Great. I hadn't had an eye exam in years. The customer service was awesome. Friendly and efficient. Great selection of eye wear. They accept VSP. What more could you ask for.

Since Dr. Bliss has retired, the practice is now in the extremely capable hands of Dr. Matin Khoshnevis. This guy is a Rock Star! Personable, kind, and very very capable. He did my second cataract surgery, and took me from a -20 to 20/20 vision! The staff is terrific and any fears, problems, or questions can be resolved easily. When it comes to surgery, you want it done right-the first time. I recommend this eye surgeon to anyone with any problems. Don't put off seeing the world with clear clarity and normal vision.

Yesterday I had an appointment with Stephanie Yoshimura, Od. First let me say I'm sorry I took her valuable time. She was rude, and generally unprofessional. This visit was most disappointing. I had a full I exam done. I was in wanting to have my eyes checked for glaucoma and for macular degeneration, as it runs in my family, on top of having checking my eyes for any changes due to having type 2 diabetes.

This woman was in such a big fat hurry that all she did was throw the drops in my eyes tell me to go sit in the waiting room, then have go back to exam room to complete the tests that she used to prepare my eyes testing. I NEVER GOT THE RESULTS OF ANY OF THOSE YESTS. NOR WAS THERE EVER AN OPPORTUNITY TO ASK QUESTIONS. I still don't know my eye health! Would not recommend to anyone.

I called a few minutes before they were ready to close. My daughter woke up not being able to see out of one eye. (I had missed her earlier calls.) She was in Lincoln getting a prescription and they stayed late to wait for her to arrive. I haven't experienced this much caring and excellent service in many, many years. Thank you Dr. Bliss and your entire staff!

This is a difficult review to write because I love my doctor at Bliss Eye Associates, so this rating does not refer to the Ophthalmology services. However, the Optical Department is the poorest customer care organization I have experienced. Not only were my eye glasses very expensive (which they justified because they said their quality and services were excellent) it took me two months and multiple trips to get a usable pair of eye glasses.

In addition, the staff, particularly the office manager, seemed completely uninterested in assisting me, offering advice or in any way showing they valued my business. To me the details of my experience are not important, what is important is that I expect more focus on customer care from a health service, especially when not getting good knowledgeable advice and care has a detrimental impact on my health and well being.

There are several one star ratings in these reviews and I can completely understand why. People do not routinely leave this business feeling as though they are valued customers.

I scheduled an appointment more than a month and a half ago because my usual Optician did not have availability sooner due to covid. I received a can last Friday from them to inform me that my appointment was canceled because an current client had an emergency appointment and they canceled me because I am a new client! When I mentioned it was unprofessional and very much an inconvenience, I was provided an alternative but they required that I book a two hour appointment so they can perform pupil dilation.

I informed the staff person that I had that done last year, and wanted to opt out because I have to go back to work right after my visit. The staff person stated I had to do it as part of the complete exam. I have never heard that before. Unprofessional and I don't understand forcing to have extras when you only need refraction and glasses. I guess they want to make the most money out of your visit otherwise you are not worth it. Disappointing and wasting people's time. From other review, it seems they have done it to others. I would not waste my time with them. I think they will select clients they can get the most money out of.

I love Dr. Bliss and Dr. Kennedy, Their optical staff and assistants to the doctors as well. I'm not so fond of their front or scheduling staff or rule since you can't schedule way ahead of time. They will tell you that you have to wait until you get a mail reminder then you can schedule. By the time you get your reminder, schedule for the doctor is full and your appointment get pushed further.

Last summer when there was no COVID I sat in the waiting room for 4 hours with my mother. They seemed to over book and didn't seem to care that they had a waiting room full of upset patients. I decided this was just a fluke and was really looking forward to my appointment this week so I could get contacts. Working with a mask and fogged up glasses is nearly impossible.

I received a phone call from a snarky receptionist telling me that my appointment was cancelled due to a problem on their end and I would need to change it. Then I was told that I would need to take time off from work if I didn't want to wait two months plus for an appointment. While this conversation was taking place I received a text telling me how excited they were to see me at my appointment the next day? Today they texted me and said I am over due for an appointment. no kidding! I'm going to go to Costco next week. I'm done with Bliss!

I get the complaints as one MAY get from any business. But when its all said and done and you need eye surgery.cataracts etc, Don't you want the absolute most experienced eye surgeon doing it? A TOP NOTCH surgeon? Thats why you want your surgery done by Dr Bliss! He has 30 plus years of experience and does amazing work. Look passed the girl here or the guy there or other issues you may read.

Its your eyes! Its the surgeon that counts here.period! I had 2 surgeries : one was an emergency and Dr Bliss was world class! And his affiliation with retinal detachment doctors is strong.and trust me, you may need them too. Some times cateracts and retinal detachments can go and hand in hand. Choose DR. Bliss!

What an incredible practice. Totally patient centered. I recently had two surgeries in January and February to remove cataracts. Dr. Bliss is the best in the business and answered all of my questions. The front desk is incredibly attentive. But the real superstar of the whole office is Lindsay. The care and concern that she showed is beyond anything I've ever seen.

She always took my calls, answered all my questions no matter how silly and made me feel like I was the only patient they have. They have a busy practice and it was always amazing to me with a high level of customer service they were able to provide. My surgeries went great, just like Lindsay said they would and I now see better than I did when I was 20! Thank you Lindsay and Dr Bliss! Don't hesitate to call the practice for any of your eye concerns.

If your looking for a really fast eye exam and want to get in and out as fast as you can? This is the place. If you have questions or specific needs that your concerned about, go somewhere else. This place is set up to make fast money. One extremely nice front Desk girl (Blonde) the other front desk girl in black, dark hair was very dismissive and I felt like she would rather be anywhere but work.

I had a appointment with Dr Rabin at 8:30am. I took the first appointment of the day because I had a long wait on my last visit. But, I plan did not work! After sitting in the exam room for more then 20 minutes at 9:10am I ask what the hold up was. The issue was the doctor was not in the building yet. A couple minutes later he come in staying the staff may have scheduled incorrectly. Absolutely not the staff was great. Another inconsiderate doctor of their patients time. We all have lives.

Doctors are great, staff needs training. I agree with Jordan who posted about the staff. I am always placed on hold immediately and transferred to different departments to explain my story all over again. Whatever I call for they try to put me off or give me to someone else. Once I had to make an appointment to speak with my doctor to get an answer to a question. Although I love my doctors, I am going to go elsewhere due to the absolute awful customer service in relation to the front office staff.

Their office called me yesterday to reschedule my August 19 annual exam with dr. Bliss. The next available appointment was in November! This is the second time they did that to me. The last time I had to reschedule my appointment with another excellent doctor who unfortunately left their group. I'm looking for another eye doctor. The staff does not care if you stay with them or not. All they care about is making more profit by taking more costly visits than a routine eye exam.

Driving from Rancho Cordova, accident on Bradshaw and 50 and stalled car Watt Ave. More than 10 minutes late and they refused to see me. Wanted me to reschedule 3 weeks out. Very frustrating. Traffic is not something I can control and the receptionist didn't seem to believe.

Hubby has been a pt of Dr. Bliss' for many years. After diabetic retinopathy, he lost his peripheral vision in right eye. Dr. Bliss was able to save his vision in that eye by having an IOL cataract implant placed. 15 years later, he recently had an IOL cataract placed in left eye also, along w/lasik in right eye. After two yag lasers to clear up cloudy IOL. he is GRATEFUL that he now has 20/20 in BOTH eyes and NO LONGER needs to wear glasses.

For the first time, in 15 years since vision has been going bad (being diabetic over 30 years), hubby is able to see his golf ball AND play golf w/OUT wearing sunglasses. He feels truly blessed to have Dr. Bliss, his staff and HIGHLY HIGHLY HIGHLY recommends them to ALL! Patient for 15 years and counting. Randy Crockell

When I first moved up here in 1986, I went to Roseville Optometry to have my glasses updated. Dr. Julie Thornton checked out my eyes thoroughly and told me that I needed to see Dr. Bliss because my eye pressure was high. I put it off. The next visit to Dr. Thornton sent her into a panic mode! She asked me if I had seen Dr. Bliss yet and I told her no.

She jumped up to the phone and made an appointment to see Dr. Bliss the very next day. I thank God to this day that she was so on top of it and sent me to the very BEST in this entire area. Dr. Bliss told me that I had narrow angle glaucoma and my eye pressure was 32 in one eye and 30 in the other. That is bad! It was twice as much as it should have been. Dr. Bliss has kept my glaucoma in a much better zone and literally, saved my eyesight. I can't say enough good things about him and his staff. Thank you, Dr. Bliss and staff. I feel that I am in the best of hands with all of you taking care of me.

***ALL SHOW POOR SERVICE, ATTATUDE AND DIANOSESS BUYER BEWARE*** When I went to Bliss a year ago, my first impression was awesome. You pay huge for an examination for a resident eye doctor at that time was $200.00 for visit plus fitting fees. Went back 3 times to get refitted because they could not get prescription right and still was rediculas could not see clearly near or far.

I suffered for a year, and set another appointment, explained my apprehensions, and was told that my original doctor left for un known reasons. The problem I have is the attitude, they think there so much better then you. I called for my prescription that was wrong, and I could not see for a year, and since I used 1800-contacts instead of them I had to jump through hoops to get and degraded for paying 50 dollars instead of their 300 per eye.

I just wanted to make sure the new doctor did not give me same perscription! You do not see Dr Bliss he as I have been told awesome, nevertheless, you pay as you are seeing him, but you see an unknown doctor. I did meet a new Doctor, so far so good, saw that priciption was compleatly wrong, changed my eye glass and contact! Yea I can see. Thank God.

I will not mention there name as I feel that would be right, but will be giving them a 5 star on my page! *IF I WANT TO PAY FOR POOR SERVICE AND POOR WORKMANSHIP, WE DO NOT NEED TO PAY THE PRICE. YOUR ARE PAYING FOR FARAGOMO AND GETTING A KNOCK OFF. DO NOT WAIST YOUR MONEY!*.

This place is nestled away in a corporate business center close to the movie theaters on Greenback Lane. Forget about dropping in on this place cuz you won't find it unless your looking for it. In addition Bliss is only open one Saturday 9am-3pm per month. Now for the good news, the staff is very friendly and helpful. My eye exam breezed by and the Dr was engaging and caring something you don't always get these days.

The selection of glasses very from generics to designers such as Tiffany and Prada but don't fret there are plenty of affordable good looking glasses as well. Selecting glasses was a fairly simple process and the techs are very helpful in this aspect as well describing all of the options available and hopefully what your insurance will cover as well. If this place was open on weekends it would rate five stars.

My experience with Dr. Bliss and the entire staff was absolutely incredible. I was going blind from cataracts, and was more than petrified about surgery, as I have never been under the knife before in my 56 years! From the beginning his staff made me feel comfortable and relaxed, even on the day of the surgery. Dr. Bliss and his staff of totally professional and caring individuals made it very clear that they knew what they were doing and it was their primary goal was to put me at ease.

The operations were painless and the results were so good, I cried like a baby for being able to see clearly for the first time in my life! I now have 20/10 vision in both eyes. Good Job Doctor! I'm forever grateful for meeting Dr. Bliss and his highly trained and kind staff! John Owensby
