I didn't actually go in to see them because, unfortunately, my insurance doesn't apply there. But the girls who answer the phones offer some of the nicest customer service I've ever experienced. They're so accommodating and are happy to give any and all information you ask for. I wish I were covered. Lovely people.

First thing to note is that Third Eye Chic has built a comfortable environment that feels like home. Lisa at the front desk had a total understanding of my insurance options and helped me ensure I was covered for all of the work I needed. Dr. Ruelas addressed all of my concerns thoroughly and made my experience very seamless. On top of teaching yoga and meditation, she also runs a non profit helping underprivileged communities around the world establish facilities able to alleviate preventable blindness. I'm proud to say my doctor serves a higher purpose such as this and will continue to go back for all my eyesore needs.

Dr. Ruelas was terrific, helpful and thoughtful and truly "present" with me, showing real concern every step of the way that I knew what was going on and my questions were answered. The reception folks were great, too. A friendly, welcoming Optometry office right in my neighborhood.

I've been wearing glasses / contacts for about 14 years now and this was one of the most efficient and pleasant eye exam experiences I've had. They know how to treat customers well. They are thorough, while still getting you in and out quickly. Also the decor is lovely. I would recommend this place.

Dr. Ruelas is an amazing doctor. I've had trouble since moving to New York to find a doctor who was is not only competent but also treats you like a patient not just a co-pay. Dr. Ruelas actually cares about your well-being making sure that when you leave you're happy and makes the extra effort to insure your visit is a good one. I would recommend her to anyone. Thank you!
