No. We are independent from Costco and all individual Costco optometrists are separate from each other. We do not have access to your order(s) or information in Costco’s database. We do not have direct access to your previous records at other Costco locations, but can request it if you sign a medical records release.

A Costco membership is not required to have an exam at out office! If you choose to purchase glasses or contact lenses from Costco, you will need a membership.

Our exam fees are extremely competitive and are already discounted for your convenience.

The following symptoms may indicate the need for an eye examination: 

• Blurred vision 
• Difficulty focusing 
• Eye strain 
• Headaches 
• Double vision 
• Flashing lights 
• Floating spots 
• Difficulty seeing at night 
• Vision slow to adjust when changing fixation to different distances 
• Words jumbling on the page or losing place often 
• Eyes are red, itchy, painful, irritated, watery, mattered, or if there is a foreign body sensation
• Recently diagnosed as a Diabetic

During your eye examination the optometrist will determine how well you can see, with or without your best glasses prescription, both at distance and near. This is usually done by comparing the clarity of a series of lenses. How well your eyes work together may also be tested. Your eye health will be examined using light from a special microscope to determine the health of both the front and back of your eyes. A routine eye examination DOES NOT HURT OR CAUSE PAIN. A non-contact tonometer will be used to determine your eye pressure by puffing air into your eye. This may give you a start, but is not uncomfortable. The dilation eye drops instilled in the office will sting for about 10 to 20 seconds, but are not painful or harmful. At the completion of your examination, you will be provided a copy of your glasses and/or contact lens prescription (depending on exam type).
