Dr. Vroustouris is the best ophthalmologist I have ever had. Period. For a variety of reasons, I trust 100%.


StarStarStarStarStar Annual eye exam —    (Patient since Fri Mar 01 00:00:00 MST 2019)

Dr Doan is a true professional. She has been my doc for 15 years.


StarStarStarStarStar Corrected product issues —    (Patient since Wed Oct 13 00:00:00 MDT 2021)

I have to say that after various product issues NVDO stepped up and are fixing all issues. I would recommend them to anyone


StarStarStarStarStar OUR EXPERIENCE AT NVDO. —    (Patient since Thu Feb 17 00:00:00 MST 2022)

My husband and I are LONG-TIME patients 2006 before. DR. ALFRED GALLIANI was our first and most admired family Optometrist. We were assigned to go to See Clearly Vision in McLean, VA to have cataracts removed, which was a beautiful uneventful experience. We, however, decided to return to NVDO, which is closer in location. We found out, you were not in the same location and were lost, called the office to explain, had to wait for directions, which caused us to be late. One of the receptionists, did not have the compassionate understanding that we felt that she could have had, noting that we were disturbed because of our tardiness. Another receptionist came to our rescue and made it better. The beginning was disturbing; we finished our visit very happy. Your receptionists may be more sensitive to clients' needs and feelings.


StarStarStarStarStar Office visit —    (Patient since Fri Aug 23 00:00:00 MDT 2019)

Always have a good appointment with Dr. Doan, very helpful, patient and concerned about my eye health, contacts and glasses. And the staff is very helpful through all the scans and this time with my glasses Miquel? Was helpful and has helped me for years back with Dr. Galvani!! Thank you!


StarStarStarStarStar Very good —    (Patient since Mon Nov 25 00:00:00 MST 2019)

I had an excellent experience with my appointment. The doctor explained everything clearly. And a benefits specialist went above and beyond to help fix my glasses which were crooked

This is the best Optometry Doctor I can possibly imagine! Kind, thorough, explained everything, and genuinely cares! Thank you!!


StarStarStarStarStar Excellent as always! —    (Patient since Wed Jun 24 00:00:00 MDT 2020)

I have been going to NVDO for years, they are prompt, courteous and professional. I love the fact that they stock beautiful frames that you don't find everywhere. When I had problems with one of my eyes they made sure I could get in right away and explained what was going on. I knew I was in good hands. If you are looking for eyecare, this is the place!


StarStarStarStarStar They're both the same location... —    (Patient since Wed Mar 02 00:00:00 MST 2016)

This is the second location I've visited and it seems that they just change the personnel and maintain the service. I felt, was treated and experienced the same level at this location as the first and it makes things difficult for me. I have relations with the staff at the first and the staff at the second make it terribly difficult not to like them.

Staff at NVDO very nice. You need to do away with mask requirements, those of us who have been fully vaccinated feel that forcing us to comply with this silly rule makes the vaccine a government scam.

Very professional staff — doctors, assistants, receptionist, etc. exceptional service!


StarStarStarStarStar Dr V is outstanding —    (Patient since Thu Feb 07 00:00:00 MST 2008)

Dr V, as those of us who are lucky to be her patients call her, is outstanding. I can't imagine using anyone else for my eye care. She is conscientious, pragmatic, competent, great doctor/patient personality. Her practice is very well run and they have offices in multiple places. I use their Crystal City offices which moved some time ago into a really great space. They have a wonderful selection of glasses, great staff, and easy validated parking in their building. Nothing not to like!

All of the staff were great. Dr Look and his tech assistant were very thorough and explained all of the aspects about my new contact lens. Nichole was very helpful in understanding my bill. As an added bonus, there wasn't any delay from my appointment time.

I have been a patient at NVD Optometrist for over 40 plus years. The Service and staff are extremely kind. Dr. S. Doan is an exceptional Optometrist.


StarStarStarStarStar I couldn’t have had a better experience! —    (Patient since Fri Nov 13 00:00:00 MST 2020)

I couldn’t have had a better experience! Everyone was friendly, helpful, and transparent about each step. Highly recommend!


StarStarStarStarStar Great staff, excellent service —    (Patient since Mon Nov 03 00:00:00 MST 2008)

No complaints. Visited a different location and found everything to my satisfaction.


StarStarStarStarStar 5-star check-up —    (Patient since Thu Jul 26 00:00:00 MDT 2018)

I had a check-up with Dr. Sparrenberger. The visit was great! My wait time in the lobby was less than five minutes. Dr. Sparrenberger is nothing less than amazing. He genuinely cares about your well-being and the health of your eyes. The exam with him and the staff of Northern Virginia Doctors of Optometry was very thorough and they worked extremely efficiently. I definitely recommend them to anybody looking for an eye doctor.

From the beginning to the end, everyone was very personable, good-spirited and answered any questions I had. I don't remember the names of the two ladies (one checking me in, one doing the different tests), but they were wonderful, and Dr. Look was fantastic! I love this office better than the Falls Church one (sorry!) because it's quieter and it just felt more personal. I'll definitely go back to the Crystal City office instead of Falls Church for all of my future appointments. Their 6 pm last appointment was also very convenient to my own office hours.

Very kind staff, thorough doctor, and loved that I did not have to get my eyes dialated for the retina exam! And no wait time


StarStarStarStarStar NVDO=Excellent eye care and services —    (Patient since Thu Dec 27 00:00:00 MST 2018)

Northern Virginia Doctors of Optometry have been caring for my eyes and vision since 1985. Everyone in my family goes there, too. Each family member has different, and significant, vision needs and sees a different doctor, and all of us receive excellent care. The same is true about the opticians, clinical technicians, and administrative staff--they know their jobs and go the extra mile to ensure that we are all happy with our contact lenses and glasses and are seeing as well as possible. Because we have two types of vision insurance and we all wear both multi-focal glasses and specialized contact lenses, it can take a bit of effort to get the most out of our insurance coverage; however, NVDO has always been willing to take the time to get the best result for us.


StarStarStarStarStar Office visit —    (Patient since Wed Jan 09 00:00:00 MST 2019)

All went well. Typical new office issues, none devastating.

I am very pleased with the friendly staff, and excellent care and service I experienced at NVDO Crystal City. The staff was on time and Dr Tom took his time, did a thorough exam, and answered all my questions. I definitely recommend.


StarStarStarStarStar Service at NVDO is always professional. —    (Patient since Wed Sep 19 00:00:00 MDT 2018)

Service at NVDO is always professional, personal, and with a hint of compassion. I am always made to feel I am a person, not just a patient.

As usual, NVDO has lived up to the highest standards of eyecare I have come to expect from them. This includes everyone from front desk staff, to the actual staff doctors. They always make me feel that my vision care is important to them, and they are not just there to provide a service.


StarStarStarStarStar Amazing Eye Place —    (Patient since Sun Dec 02 16:00:00 MST 292269055)

The staff at NVDO Arlington are all awesome, from the front desk, to the optometrist technician, to the doctor and the eyeglass man....all great! The location is very convenient, the selection of frames extensive, and the eye exam quality was thorough and comprehensive. I recommend them highly!

Best Optometry practice in my 40 plus years of glasses/contacts!

Appreciate the intrest of my recent office visit via the this form. Allowing the option of remaining anonymous should encourage many to speak honestly. Thanks!


StarStarStarStarStar Excellent Service! —    (Patient since Wed Feb 20 00:00:00 MST 2019)

This was my yearly check-up with Dr. Sapho Doan. As always, Dr. Doan and the technician who assisted her were outstanding. The service was absolutely professional, with both explaining each step in the check-up and its significance. In addition to being thorough in her examination and deeply knowledgeable in all aspects of eye health, Dr. Doan is very personable, and makes her patients feel welcome and well cared for. I left the office totally satisfied.

The service that I received was outstanding as usual.


StarStarStarStarStar Staff were very helpful!  —    (Patient since Fri May 17 00:00:00 MDT 2019)

My appointment was not scheduled correctly because I was not told that my health insurance would not cover my office visit, but the office manager of the Crystal City location worked with the doctor to make sure I received the care I needed that day (a contact lens exam) and everything worked out great in the end! I'm so grateful that the staff worked to get me seen right away instead of having to reschedule me for another office visit on a different day. I appreciate their resourcefulness and the effort they put into trying to find out what the issue was with my original appointment. Thank you!!!

StarStarStarStarStar Great staff and Dr. V! —    (Patient since Mon Feb 04 00:00:00 MST 2019)

The staff at the office is wonderful - a special shout out to Julie and Bianca! Dr. V is conscientious and thorough in finding the best fit for my eyes at a reasonable price.


StarStarStarStarStar Great Improvements in Service! —    (Patient since Wed Sep 05 00:00:00 MDT 2018)

We've been patients of the practice for many years, and have noticed a considerable improvement in service and patient attention since Candice has become office manager. Most notably, the billing practices - which were difficult for a patient to navigate - have improved considerably. It is a pleasure to come into the office and be greeted by name, and to check out with a clear bill of what is to be paid by insurance and what is the patient's responsibility. Great work!


StarStarStarStarStar Excellent Eye Service —    (Patient since Thu Dec 06 00:00:00 MST 2018)

I walked into the clinic without an appointment and was able to be seen by the staff for a professional check-up and an eye glass appointment. Everyone was very curious and professional.

Always an efficient visit making the most of your time there. Great to catch up with Staff that have become friends over the 10 years I have been visiting this office. Super convenient location right off the metro, great selection of frames with staff willing to help you select the right pair. Dr. Doan is the best!


StarStarStarStarStar Happy with service and professional courtesy —    (Patient since Mon Nov 30 00:00:00 MST 2020)

Despite an insurance fiasco and my primary doctor cancelling for an emergency, the other doctor still saw me and provided a discount as professional courtesy since I've been with them for 7 years. I very much appreciated the medical staff and all the care I have received from this practice over the years. The front desk staff is always so nice.

Very thorough examination. The technology was impressive, especially the ability to get high quality images of my eyes without dilation. Dr. V is very knowledgeable and concerned about my vision.


StarStarStarStarStar SIMPLY SIGHTED —    (Patient since Tue Aug 21 00:00:00 MDT 2018)

If you are looking for quality eye care, go no further! NVDO has be best staff - friendly, ready to help, accommodating, easy to talk to. Why, well, I think because of the amazing eye Doctors that work here. They not only set the pace for a great office atmosphere, but are highly qualified, professional and just simply the best eye doctors in this area!

I always enjoy going to Northern Virginia Doctors of Optometry. Dr Sparrenberger makes getting my eyes examined fun. He has let me decide when I am ready to wear glasses for distance. I really appreciate not being pressured to buy glasses.

A bit expensive but I like my eye doctor a lot.


StarStarStarStarStar  —    (Patient since Wed Jan 16 00:00:00 MST 2019)

I have no complaints. The doctor duly examined me, after other personnel put me through some procedures. They're evidently vigilant against my developing glaucoma, retinal tears, or other problems. And I'm going to get new lenses for my glasses.


StarStarStarStarStar Great service, Pleasant and competent staff —    (Patient since Thu Jul 26 00:00:00 MDT 2018)

Hello - I am rounding up from a 4.5, which in my opinion is an excellent rating. I very seldom give a true rating of five stars. I found the staff to be welcoming and willing to accommodate a walk-in appointment. I have purchased lens and frames NVDO but have not experienced an eye exam until my last visit. The intake person was friendly and knowledgeable in their tasks. The optometrist was Cameron Jones, O.D., who was engaged and interested in my circumstance as a new patient. Many practitioners become entrenched in their methods, so to see one perk up makes for a successful experience. All this being said, my experience was pleasant and beneficial to my eye health. And, by the way, the facility was clean, neat and orderly.


StarStarStarStarStar Knowledge my the annual checkup efficient —    (Patient since Thu Dec 26 00:00:00 MST 2019)

The entire team did great. When I had to change my appointment date, they were more than accommodating. They have all the latest optometry tools at their disposal and know how to use them. This makes the appointment fast and efficient.


StarStarStarStarStar Great care! —    (Patient since Fri Aug 10 00:00:00 MDT 2018)

Even though we moved from northern Virginia to northwest DC nine years ago, we continue to make the trip back across town for all our contact and glasses needs because NVDO are simply so caring and professional. Reception staff are efficient, pleasant and very accommodating. Miguel does a wonderful job of converting the paper prescription to ones glasses; he's very precise and thorough, and I've never had a problem with where my focal lengths fall within my lenses. He also has a good choice of glasses - something for everybody, even fussy me! Dr. Doan is wonderful: she takes the time to ask all the necessary questions, listens well, gives answers to all my questions, and is extremely thorough with my annual vision exam. And very recently I needed to calm my burning eyes and eyelids, and my local ophthalmologist was on vacation, so I made an appointment with Dr. Doan, who checked my eyes very thoroughly and was able to prescribe the appropriate medications to ease my symptoms. Great service. Much appreciated.


StarStarStarStarStar NVDO —    (Patient since Fri Aug 16 00:00:00 MDT 2019)

Everyone at the office was very nice and welcoming. The receptionist took time to explain directions on the phone. Once there, the examination was swift and doctor was very thorough. Then when selecting frames, the specialist was patient and helpful in choosing a style that compliments my face. Overall, I was very satisfied with my experience and I will recommend this practice to others.


StarStarStarStarStar  —    (Patient since Tue May 28 00:00:00 MDT 2019)

NVDO is outstanding in professionalism. Dr. Sparrenberger is one of the best. He is very thorough and knowledgeable and the staff is great. Everyone in the office is super nice. On one occasion when Dr. Sparrenberger was out of the office, I saw Dr. Vroustouris and she was also very nice and she too is a great Doctor. I have recommended friends and co-workers and they all are very pleased with the top notch service received from the Drs. at NDVO.


StarStarStarStarStar Now in my second year for annual eye exams  —    (Patient since Tue Jul 09 00:00:00 MDT 2019)

Now in my second year for annual eye exams and could not be happier. The staff are extremely professional, helpful, and courteous. The Doctors take time to explain all questions and have an exlent Doctor/Patient rapport. I don't live in Virgina but schedule my exams when in town on business trips.


StarStarStarStarStar Crystal City Happy Customer —    (Patient since Sun Dec 02 16:00:00 MST 292269055)

I just visited the Crystal City office as a new patient and I was very pleased with my appointment. The staff were pleasant, the optometrist was thorough and I received a lot of guidance picking out glasses. I also received options for treating on chronic dry eye and pros/cons of lasik. I will definitely be a return customer.

My first visit was most pleasant. From being "greeted" at the front desk to my departure from there, the service I received was outstanding, professional and most importantly, helpful to my individual problem. Dr. Vroustouris was beyond competent, very friendly, and I left feeling I got the best possible care that I needed at this time. I would recommend her and her company's services to one and all.

NVDO is quality eye care. I'd rather take a little longer getting the right service that going to the mall. I have been going to them for years and will continue to use them for eye care.

Very professional and efficient. I have been going to Northern VA Doctors of Optometry for more years than I can remember. I am partial to Dr. V., but have never had a Doc that wasn't stellar. Trust your eye health to No. VA Doctors of Optometry.

Everything went smoothly. Was able to get an appointment for only a few days after I called. When I came in, I was immediately checked in and taken right away. Clinical technician was thorough, asking me if I had any concerns or problems with my eyes. Dr. Sparrenburger, as always, was thorough with his exam, friendly and personable, and addressed all my questions. I have total confidence in him and the office in general and know I'm getting high quality vision care.

I asked for costs from 2 different people prior as I had no insurance the overall out if pocket cost was very important to me. I received a range up to $165 for the contact lens exam. It actually cost $210 - quite a difference. This was in addition to the general eye exam which a girl dies not the qualified optometrist. When I questioned the cost the response was we didn't know. That cost is for category 1 and 2 but you are a 3. We didn't know your eyes were bad. If she didn't know my question is why the category 3 was not included in the cost estimate. Isn't it better to have a cost lower than expected...NOT $50 more!!!!!!

I started going to Northern VA Drs of Optometry about 19 years ago because I finally needed glasses, and my husband was very satisfied with NVDO. All their staff have been, and are, so professional, caring, friendly. Dr. Doan is so very thorough, patient and caring; she spends precious time with me until all my questions are answered. Miguel has patiently helped me through quite a few pairs of glasses over the years, always there to advise, to repair or tweak when necessary. I have never had a bad or uncomfortable pair of glasses, as they are perfectly tuned to my eyes and face. The reception/check-in/check-out staff are always courteous and efficient. Even though I moved from northern Virginia to northwest DC eight years ago, I continue to consult with this wonderful team of professionals.

My wife and I have trusted Dr. Vroustouris explicitly (and implicitly, for that matter) for many years and she has always rewarded that trust with a degree of professionalism we have rarely found elsewhere, regardless of the professional field. The support we all gain from her association with Northern Virginia Doctors of Optometry is notable, but the reason we always come back to her (regardless of the cost as we live in Hawaii) is a testament to her expertise, understanding, compassion and simple humanity.

Dr. Sparrenberger was friendly and thorough. NVDO used new technology to review my eyes and walked me through what was being done and what I could expect. I came in for a consultation on tweaking a previous Lasik procedure. The doctor did not try to sell me a service I did not need. He even told me I did not need new glasses as my current pair were fine. I really liked the service. I am new to the area. Replacing my old trusted doctors has been a challenge for me. I am glad that I have found my new optometrist.

Really loved how Dr. Jones didn't pressure me into having my eyes dilated when I told her I had to go back to work after my appointment. Also, and I'm embarrassed that I forgot her name, but the woman who took my BP/ran tests was really wonderful and made sure to tell me about the $39 fee for the eyeball camera thing. That was super classy and coo'. And, because you had that, Dr. Jones was more comfortable not dilating my eyes, and that was great. The woman who checked me out was also lovely and very clear about fees and such. Thanks, ladies!

And the eyeglass technician was super friendly and helped me pick out some new frames. And all prices, insurance, etc. was explained to me before I committed to anything. All in all a great visit. You have yourselves a new customer, and I highly recommend them

I appreciate very much the way Dr. Doan works with me to problem solve my contact lens solution- more difficult than a standard prescription. She is very knowledgeable and thorough, and she listens- exceptional!


StarStarStarStarStar Parking Validation Issue. —    (Patient since Thu Apr 04 00:00:00 MDT 2019)

As a long time patient, I was disappointed that the parking location had changed and I had to pay $8 to park vs having the parking fee validated. The check-out team member indicated that an email went out in June. If that is so, why wasn't a reminder sent with my appt reminder? It is not reasonable that I was expected to remember an email from June in November, especially when I don't come here but every few months or so.

When requesting an appointment time online, it would be easier if selecting desired appointment times were linked with actual availability of appointments. That would be more efficient and may eliminate the need for a follow up phone call by a receptionist when my desired times are not available. I have yet to be able to use the online appointment scheduler without having to call and make an appointment in the end.

Collectively, the three Check in/check out team members spent over three hours untangling a snag with my insurance and enabling me to get my full benefit. (Not all while I was there.) I offered to pay for their lunches, since they had worked through their lunch hours to help me, and they graciously turned me down. They clearly have a good relationship with Dr. Vroustouris, who is the best eye doctor I've found through the 40 years I've lived and worked in this area. That's why I recommend this team to all my friends!

I don't understand why the doctor prescribed me drops that cost $220 dollars and when I called to complain he changed it to a $15.00 prescription . Why didn't he offer me the less expensive one first or at least tell me I had two options? Are the doctors making commissions on giving patients needlessly expensive medicine ?

The only problem I had was when I tried to leave the new parking garage. Although my parking ticket was suppose to be validated, when I got to the unmanned toll machine it said I owed over $21.00. Luckily no one was behind me, so I could backup and make a u-turn. The staff re-validated the ticket and the second time, it worked. Since the exit machine is unmanned, it is very important that the validation should work.

the attitude with the individual who checked me in and out had room to improve. She acted if she was too busy to acknowledge me. The technician spoke so fact I hardly understood what she was asking - so I stopped paying attention to her midway through the exam. The Dr. had the gentleman adjust my glasses (the dots). He was apparently under the weather because the entire time he kept snuffing which turned my stomach. I felt as if I should scrub my glasses after he handled them - but I knew he used a cleanser because they smelted light amonia.

Over the many years I have been under NVDO's excelent eye care there have been numerous scheduling issues or misplaced records no matter what office I saw whether it was Loeman's or Crystal City. I am being monitored for an increased IOP for the last 5 years+. My Dr. noticed a change in my IOP in June(? 2015) and wanted to see me for a recheck. I was given an appt. but when I showed up they were surprised that I was there and they had NO record of me having an appt. that day for IOP check. they rescheduled for the next available which was a week or so later and because of a scheduling conflict when I called to reschedule that they HAD NO APPOINTMENT FOR ME that day either which made twice in a row. They rescheduled for another week away and I was happy that I was on the schedule when I arrived. I am scheduled for August 4 at around 930am. I recieved EMAILS and texts to verify this appt and the very last appointment.....I am satisfied that the staff is making a concerted effort to improve the service.......

I am sorry to say that on this occasion your service was less than exemplary. During my exam, Dr. S noticed the technician had confused my records with someone with a similar name. Had the Dr not caught it, may have resulted in changes to my records that would have applied to someone else. During check out, the staff didn't properly consider my insurances thus causing me to pay a co-pay that would have been coverd by my secondary insurance. When I called on this the staff again confused me with another patient causing me to hold extensively.

When I called and asked about the pricing of this visit, I was not told about the "contact lens evaluation fee" (130.) I would have appreciated knowing about this in advance, as I would have chosen a different provider or opted out of this service. I've been wearing the same brand of contacts for ten years, with no problems, so it feels like a ripoff. My insurance did not cover the majority of this fee. I returned today to see if I could get the fee reduced or a credit on my account, and the person at the front desk was very dismissive (though not rude.) I will not be back, but (!) I am glad I learned a lesson about doing my research before trying a new optometrist and asking for every detail in advance. :)
