“Always love the service at Sunnysight Optik. My doctor was caring and thorough in my eye exam, she listened to what I had to say and didn't rush me. This office is the best!”

“Friendly and professional. I hadn’t had an exam in many years and Dr. Aquije was non judgmental and very patient throughout the appointment. Her and the staff at Sunnysight Optik were welcoming and did not pressure me to get anything besides the exam I had booked. Would strongly recommend!”

I learned so much more about my eyes and I feel like I understand how my prescription not only works, but how my eyes are changing and compensating. I learned about vision physical therapy, and she was able to give me tools to help with my everyday eye issues/concerns. Thank you!
