Eyecon Optometry

After having a good experience at a new patient exam & lens fitting appointment. I was directed to email if I wanted to continue with my trial lens I was fitted for & was wearing. So I did email requesting to order the trail lenses as directed. 20 days have gone by and I still haven’t received any communication to come in & get the trail lenses. It really doesn’t take more than 3 – 5 days to get them delivered at most offices. Today I experienced an eye emergency and I was offered an early afternoon appoint but was told I could not be seen until then forcing me to go to urgent care. I find this extremely odd not to provide customer care in an event of an eye injury emergency. And, waiting 20+ days for a trail lenses is extremely long. I will not return as a customer.

I had a great experience at Eyecon — it was my first time visiting and Dr. Godines was awesome. He walked me through everything and provided me samples of contact lenses I wanted to try, and even some free sample sizes of contact solution. He helped me get the best deal out of my vision insurance and even gave his thoughts on glasses. I think I waited about a week before my glasses were ready, which was quick! I also appreciate the text messages that remind me about my appoitments and let me know when my glasses were ready to be picked up.
Thank you Eyecon!

My experience here was fantastic. Everybody was ridiculously nice! I will continue to go here for many many years. Dr. Godines was fantastic! Keep up the great work Eyecon!

My eye was feeling irritated all week and was getting worse. I called in last minute and Dr. Godine was still able to see me. He was a total life saver cuz I was heading out of town for a few days and didn’t want to deal with going to a Dr.‘s appointment in a different city. After my diagnostic, he knew I was going to be tempted to wear contacts before my eye fully healed, so he gave me some dailys to try out. Thanks for being so awesome and considerate!

After my regular optometrist retired, I looked on Unilocal for my next eye doctor and chose Eyecon because of the high reviews and convenient location. I am extremely pleased with the experience!
Dr. G just helped me figure out a very complex eye wear strategy, which included transitioning from gas permeable to soft contacts, figuring out the right combination of correction for contacts (for close-​up: reading, computer, 1:1 conversations, and the music on my stand…) and glasses (on top of contacts, for distance: driving, shopping, movies), and balancing my right and left eyes which have different prescriptions (and one has astigmatism!).
Dr. G was so patient and helpful — I had to go back a couple times until my corneas stabilized, which I guess is typical when you stop wearing RGPs. We tried out various options and she explained everything clearly until we settled on a combination that works great.
My new contacts are extremely comfortable (so happy to get rid of the RGPs!) and my vision is great. They also have a very good selection of stylish frames… finally glasses I won’t be embarrassed to wear outside of my car. :-)

It had been a really long time since I had an eye exam so I looked to trusted Unilocal to see where I should go, so glad this is where I chose.
Dr. Brian was great. He didn’t make me feel pressured to purchase frames there at all and even helped me find what would look good on me.
Technology has come so far in optometry since my last exam, so fancy.
I really appreciate the fact that the Dr’s seem to answer the phones and do the paper work. A lot of times in a medical setting, the Dr is not the one that does that stuff. Nice touch.

After 5 years of wearing the same glasses just for driving, I noticed my eyes were acting weird when reading and trying to read small print. Decided to try a new eye doctor since I have moved and couldn’t remember the last ones name. I was referred to Dr. Brian and was amazed at how efficient he was and how pleasant the appointment was. The last one took twice as long. Their glasses are stylish and he and Dr. Zoe are both very knowledgeable. I highly recommend them, it was a very good experience.

I am so impressed with this place! I have a severe astigmatism in my left eye and astigmatism in my right and I’m as blind as a bat. Contacts are generally harder for me to find and I like to experiment with colored contacts & not many companies offer Toric lenses so I was looking to update my prescription and convert it to a spherical lens so I could actually ordered colored contacts (aware they wouldn’t be my perfect prescription). I called no joke about 15 different eye doctors in the Lynnwood/​Greater Seattle area and none of them were able to get me in the same day. Eyecon was able to get me in same day and they were cheapest for an exam considering I don’t have insurance ($ 95 for glasses and 40 $ more for contact fitting) when most other places wanted 150 $ just for a glasses fitting. I was ecstatic.
I was 5 mins late due to traffic and having a hard time finding it in the plaza but it’s right next to Sbux in the same parking lot as Menchies/​Five Guys (yum!!) and they were super sweet and not rude at all. Eyecon is very beautiful, modern and super clean and gorgeous on the inside. Dr. Godine was such a sweetheart and he didn’t feel like a typical «sterile» Eye Dr — he was very warm and had a great personality & sense of humor. I explained what I wanted in terms of color contacts & even told him about the colored lenses I usually order and he was very helpful and informative. He even got me a bunch of trial colored lenses and took the time to explain my 3 different prescriptions he wrote up for me. I was also there for a new pair of glasses and he was so helpful in finding me a pair — I even told him I wanted «Hipster» glasses (lol) and took about 30 mins trying on tons of different pairs and he was super helpful and informative. Basically I felt like I was hanging out with an old friend and not in a Dr’s office and that is such a big deal to me. Amazing customer service and I will recommend all my friends/​family here!!!

Unexpected great experience! I needed to update my prescription and called around. Eyecon was the cheapest for an exam, so I didn’t develop any expectations. I showed up early for my appt with Zdravka, one of the owners. Minutes after showing up, I already felt like I was visiting the home of a long time friend. She was just so enthusiastic and seemed happy to be there and proud of her business.
Office was clean and welcoming, equipment was new and modern. I never felt rushed or like I was «just another patient». I mentioned I used to wear contacts, and she motivated me to try them again and set me up with a free pair of monthly trials, solution, eyedrops, and a case for my glasses. She told me to toss the contacts if they are at all uncomfortable. She ordered trials of disposables which are due this week. No pressure to buy them she just wants me to see if I like them.
She also said my current glasses are fine even though my prescription changed a little bit. She said if I want to get sunglasses she’d be happy to order them, but made no pressure to buy anything at all. But given the experience she’s cultivated, I would be more than happy to give them the business if I found frames I like.
I guess we are used to encountering businesses run by someone that just does the bare minimum, or follows the same formulas to where there is no personality, so much that we get surprised by someone who’s happy and excited to do their job, and knows what they are doing.
An experience like this says a lot more about what we can’t see. Since I’m not an optometrist, I don’t know if everything is done or evaluated correctly, so I’m happy to have other evidence that points to my doctor being on top of things, thorough, and caring. When I walked out the door I felt a very strong sense of confidence that this was a good pick for a doctor, so much that I decided to write this review. So there you go, see for yourself!

I visited Dr. G at Eyecon today for an exam to update my contact lens prescription. After a very thorough exam she provided me with a trial set of new lenses and I can now see close up without using reading glasses. Amazing. She is very nice. Office is clean. New equipment. All in all a very positive experience. I will return for future exams.

I cannot express enough how Eyecon optometrist Dr. Brian Godines goes so far above and beyond, that I had to download the Unilocal app for this reason alone. In a market where similar businesses will try to squeeze the most out of you for the least in return, it’s obvious Dr. Godines values people before his pockets. His immaculate store, demeanor and integrity has turned a walk-​in customer into a lifetime one. :)

Dr. Godines is a wonderful optometrist! I’m so glad I found him through Unilocal!He was very thorough in the exams we did and very down-​to-​earth and easy to talk to. After the exam we discussed various options such as contacts and checking for glaucoma and he gave me his honest opinion on next steps should I choose to do so.
The office is very bright and inviting and he has a great selection of frames, should you choose to purchase your new glasses from him. I didn’t have insurance that he takes (Medicaid), but the exam price was much more reasonable than other optometrists I’ve visited when I didn’t have insurance. Another big plus there!
If you’re looking for a new optometrist and happen to live in the Lynnwood area or surrounds, I highly recommend checking Eyecon and Dr. Godines out. You’ll be as pleased as I was.

I liked my experience here. Albeit my visions isn’t that great I must accept that my vision is slipping with age. The Dr’s were great and very accommodating.

I’ve worn glasses over forty years, and have been to many optometrists. I was blown away by how thorough Dr. G. is. She gave me the best exam I think I have ever had. The Eyecon store has lots of cool frames. Needless to say, I would totally recommend this place!

I needed a new Optometrist after moving to the area, I searched Unilocal (of course) and found Eyecon ans another place in Edmonds (they were booked until Dec or January). I called Eyecon and got an appointment for the next day, Dr. G was very knowledgeable, thorough, and nice.
The office was clean and bright. They were also able to take digital pictures of my eyes which is important if you have any sort of eye condition/​issue that needs monitoring.
I would definitely recommend this place and that is coming from someone who worked for an Optometrist for 5+ years.
The only tiny thing that seemed odd was the fact that the Dr. was answering the phones and scheduling the appointments, I actually kind of like the direct contact with the Dr. but as a woman I hope the male Dr. also answers the phones, just sayin’.
P. S. There is a Menchies in the same plaza, bonus!

I would highly recommend this clinic. I went here because of the good reviews by others on Unilocal,and was not disappointed. Very close to my house also. Dr. Godines took his time, and explained everything to me– even the breakdown of my bill! He is very personable — unlike any other eye docs I’ve been to– and very professional to boot! I will definitely come back for my yearly exam with this clinic!

I’ve been seeing the same optometrist since I’ve lived in WA (7 years). It was the one my mom had chosen when I was still on her insurance plan. Now that I’m adult, I figured I might want to try another office. I saw Dr. G here and she was thorough and very nice. It’s small, but very sleek and modern inside. They have nice selection of glasses and I’m happy with the frames I got. I’d come here again.

I took my 2 teenagers here for annual eye exam. Dr. Zoe G was very thorough and detailed down to the tee. It was a very pleasant visit and she even help my teens picked out the right hip frames. thanks Dr. G

This was one of the best Optometry experiences I’ve had to date. Not that it’s a HUGE disappointment but I find most Optometrists to be pretty dull and walk in expecting to be shuffled along like the eyeball cattle that I am. Dr. Godines wasn’t at all that way. He had a great personality, seemed to really care about my specific eye situation, and didn’t make me feel like I was just another person in line for his services. It was really refreshing.
On top of the great service, the space is very sleek. They seem to have all of the latest and greatest in technology (not that I’m an expert) for their realm and the appointment didn’t take long at all. I’ll be back.
They also accept Care Credit! Bonus!

With the medical plan year ending, it was time to get glasses and contacts again before ye olé FSA ran out. Seeing my wife and I live right around the corner, we decided to pop in.
Not only are they warm and friendly and patient, but they took their time with us in helping my wife try out contacts and in picking out the perfect frames. And they had all of the right information for our insurance. And this was on a Saturday where they stayed over 2 hours working with us, even past their posted closing time! And simply put, my wife probably tried over half the frames on the store, all the while they were patient, giving great feedback, and helping her pick out the perfect pair.
Even better is that the service wasn’t a fluke! I got my call on Monday like promised with an update on my contact coverage on my plan, and they squeezed me in for a late appointment that ran past their closing time again! All the while, they were gracious and courteous, warm and friendly. And with their state of the art technology, they make the experience exciting and fun!
If you hate going to the eye doctor for the yearly exam, I’d say think again and check them out! I honestly wish there was a way to rate higher than 5 stars because it’s been a long time since I’ve had service like that.
