“The doctor is nice and professional, however I am not a big fan of other staffs, it's inside Lens Crafters. Once the staff realized that I will not buy frame glasses from their store, they offer little interest to me and become very indifferent. Everything is on an ask basis, I asked for trial contact lenses, and I have to ask for a bag to put my receipt and trial contact lenses.... What's disappointing is that I am not able to get my report summary, cause they didn't host a system for clients to log in and check the report.... I don't think I will come back again even though I like the doctor. This place makes me feel too commercial, instead of a professional medical care venue.”

“The doctor was wonderful. Great bedside manner. She listened to me and was very helpful. However this Zocdoc listing states that Davis Vision is accepted and it wasn’t. As it turns out they only accept specific plans and apparently mine is not one of them. So you should call ahead an confirm they actually take your insurance or you’ll be stuck paying out of pocket.”

Verified patient
I had a great experience with Dr. DeSilva! She had a great bedside manner and explained things very clearly. She also didn’t keep me waiting which is rare!
Terrific appointment, very thorough.
I didn’t know it was in the back of a Lens Crafters shop. That’s cool by me I just didn’t know what door to go in when I got there. They have state of the art equipment and that meant that I did not have to get my eyes dilated to get a full exam. How refreshing to walk out with clear vision. I highly recommend this place for eye care and I’ll be coming back.
