Fast, Easy, & Professional 2/12/2010

I've been a patient of Stars in Your Eyes Optometry for several years now. I was new to Austin and read their reviews on Citysearch and decided to give them a shot. The staff is very professional and accomodating and I never have to wait long. Dr. Wright took his time with me and is always very friendly. He was able to explain everything to me and I can tell he genuinly cares for his patients. Overall, they have a great optometry practice and I would highly recommend them to anyone looking for an optometrist. Pros: Convenient Downtown location Cons: Parking Downtown more

Rosedale Rocks! 7/19/2008

I have been to optometrists all over the Austin area & have been misdiagnosed with dry eyes, a stigmatism, near sightedness, far sightedness, & every other ailment under the moon. I used my husband as a guinea pig & sent him to Dr. Schottman. She was amazing & even fixed the prescription that he was previously given (trifocals) to a single lens that actually helps his vision. He has spent the last year seeing everything in front of him clearly, without headaches or eye strain. Pros: Rosedale - stylish eyewear, not too busy, great customer service Cons: Parking a little cramped, love Dr Schottman (need more feedback for other drs) more

Out of This World Service 3/11/2008

I've been a client of Stars in Your Eyes for a couple of years now, and have always been pleased with every visit, but my last experience blew me away. Pros: location, personable staff, not pushy with sales, not a corporation! Cons: none to speak of more

Not your big-box optometrist 2/4/2008

I went to Stars In Your Eyes after a couple of less-than-satisfying visits to 'big box' vision centers, you know the ones with the coupons in the Sunday paper. These folks treat you like your vision and style matter. Dr Wright was so easygoing and mellow, but incredibly thorough; he found that the glasses I'd been wearing for over a year were actually made a bit too strong for my eyes. They have cool styles and great folks on hand to help you make the best match. more

Great Staff! 7/30/2007

Just wanted to thank John at Stars in Your Eyes. Optom He was such a great help. This week I brought in my glasses and they were missing the little pad thing on the nosepiece. John was such a hero?he found a pad that fit my glasses. Then he did not even charge me. Wow! That was wonderful. I had been to another ?southwestern-ish optical mart? and they were no help. They would not work on my glasses because I did not buy them there. So I was very relieved when John was such a problem solver. Thank you for your exceptional customer service! more

Thanks again 7/30/2007

I enjoyed meeting with all of you on Friday. I was at ease and have never been more comfortable at a first-time doctor's visit. It has been a while since I had to go through any kind of vision screening, so you can imagine how nervous I was. Each and everyone from the staff who worked with me, explained that was going on, and what the testing would show. I was very pleased...Oh yeah, and thanks for the help in picking out my frames...I could not have done it without you. I will definitely tell everyone at work, and out of work about your office. Thanks again. Smile at someone and make their day! more

Great Service 7/30/2007

Once again, I have to say how much I appreciate the level of service I received from Stars In Your Eyes. I can't say enough. I stopped in during a recent business trip to Austin and Michael went out of his way to help me pick out some great new frames.Michael also did a great job following up with me after my visit. He called me and told me he had sent my glasses along and how they were sent. They have arrived and I love them. Thanks so much for making this such a friendly and easy way for me to get my glasses, even from Minnesota! more

Best Eye Care around! 6/26/2007

You just don't find this kind of great personal service from doctors anymore! Dr. Schottman has always listened to my individual concerns to find a solution that works best for me. At Stars in Your Eyes I have never had to wait beyond my appointment time, my exams have been thorough and explained completely, and my service has been fabulous. They were very helpful when picking out frames, and gave me plenty of choices while not rushing at all. I was able to take my time and find a pair that worked well for me. I couldn't have asked for more! more

Great glasses & service 5/4/2007

I recently started going to Stars in Your Eyes, and I was super impressed. The doctor actually listened to my concerns about my contacts, and worked with me to find comfortable ones. The staff also helped my pick out flattering glasses that I just love. I appreciated the personal service, and I did not feel like I was being shuffled in and out - like I have felt at other places. I would highly recommend Stars in Your Eyes! more

Southern hospitality and a great selection 4/23/2007

I have referred several people to Stars in Your Eyes for the optical/optometric needs. The office is beautiful and has the best selection of eyeglass frames that you'll find at very reasonable prices. I don't mind paying a little more for quality and great customer service and you will definitely feel like you achieved both here. Top notch place! Pros: location, selection more

Expertise 4/19/2007

I have worn glasses and contacts for the last 30 years and have had many, many opthamalogists and optometrists. My experience with Stars in Your Eyes has just been wonderful. John and Michael and of course Drs. Schottman and Wright have always been professional, personable, and I have always felt confident they were making the very best decisions regarding my treatment. I love just going into the store sometimes just to say 'hello' when I'm on my lunch hour (or making my 3pm 'sugar' run to CVS! Pros: location more

Dynamic Office, Super Staff, Awesome Doctors 4/19/2007

How refreshing to find friendly, professional customer service! My prescription is challenging and I have been impressed by both doctors at SIYE for their caring, competent and reassuring manner. The staff is always welcoming and accommodating whether I am there for contacts, glasses, or just a glasses adjustment. It is apparent they work hard at efficiency without sacrificing quality for their patients. more

...now I can see 4/19/2007

I bought a pair of sunglasses from SiYE a while back and had a lens break on two separate occasions. Both times I took my sunglasses back and they were repaired promptly and with no hassles. I also purchased a pair of prescription glasses from them and received great advice and excellent customer service. These guys rock! more

Fabulous! 4/19/2007

I've been seeing Dr Schottman for several years now. Besides being conveniently located right by my office downtown, the service I?ve received has been fabulous. That keeps me coming back. The staff has always gone out of their way to help me when I?ve dropped by unannounced to have my glasses repaired or I?ve lost a contact. I?ve received thorough exams and detailed explanations of my options from Dr Schottman. Both the doctor and her staff are conscientious of my time which is a value I respect in a doctor?s office. Highly recommended. more

Reasonable Price and Courteous 4/19/2007

I have tried numerous other optometrists and MD's in town, and cannot say enough about the professionalism, customer service and eyeglass selection at Stars In Your Eyes. Dr. Emily was friendly, and her staff members Michael and John put me into a pair of glasses that look cool without breaking the bank. A definite A+++++++. Pros: Downtown location more

Great Customer Service (& Frames) 4/19/2007

I got my latest frames from Stars in Your Eyes. I get compliments on them all the time. They were super helpful in picking them out and getting them ready for me. When a screw came out of the frame, they fixed them for me with no questions asked. I have sent several friends to see Dr. Schottman and her staff. They are great folks offering a great service. I highly recommend a visit. Pros: Great staff, great location for downtown folks Cons: Parking more

Bad, bad service. Read on... 4/4/2007

Bad, bad experience. I don't mind paying top dollar for convenience. I'm an attorney who works downtown so I wanted to find a professional downtown to examine my eyes. When I went to check out after my exam, the assistant had stacked up boxes and boxes of contact lenses (of some off the wall brand I had never heard of). He became extremely rude when I questioned why I should by such a large stock. He was also put out when I asked for a "to-go" prescription for glasses and contacts. I'm used to confronting jerks in my profession, so I didn't question the assistant's terrible attitude. But I couldn't help but feel bad for other people who might feel compelled to buy glasses, accessories, contacts, etc. from this clown. Save yourself the hassle and go somewhere else. more

Awesome Service 9/20/2006
