Dr. Matthew La, OD

I needed a new eyeglasses prescription, and Dr. La at the Poway Costco (11/29/22) was very professional and listened to my concerns during my appointment. I appreciated that he also did not try to oversell me on progressive lenses. My new glasses work perfectly. He was also fantastic with my teen daughter; her glasses and contact lenses work great too!

Dr. La is the Costco kiosk optometrist at Costco Poway. The kiosk is tiny and always crowded. During COVID he refused to write prescription extensions even when the prescription was only 3 months overdue. His office said it was his "policy" not to write extensions. Note that it was completely allowed and common practice to write an extension to a recently expired prescription for patients who were trying to stay safe during COVID. Dr. La made his patients chose between coming in and risk getting COVID or not getting new glasses.
