Eye Appeal Optometry operates a full-scope practice on Rancho California Road in Margarita Village, handling routine comprehensive exams, contact lens fitting, and treatment for conditions like dry eye — the standard diagnostic work plus the in-house eyewear component that keeps a patient from walking out without glasses or contacts the same day. Most major vision plans are accepted, removing the insurance friction that can make a visit feel like a coordination hassle. Residents choosing Eye Appeal over chain retailers typically value a dedicated optometrist who spends exam time on their specific vision concerns rather than a high-volume throughput model. The practice suits anyone needing a contact lens fitting that requires multiple adjustments, patients managing dry eye or other ongoing eye health issues, and families with pediatric vision needs. For complex cases requiring surgical evaluation — cataracts, LASIK candidacy — the optometrist can navigate referral pathways to specialists. Walk-in traffic and scheduled appointments both fit the workload; most residents in the Margarita Village corridor already pass the location on routine errands.

Temecula Creek Optometry operates on Margarita Road in central Temecula, handling the full scope of routine eye care — comprehensive exams, contact lens fittings, dry eye evaluation, and pediatric vision work — with in-house frame selection and lab finishing rather than relying on external fulfillment. The practice also manages surgical referrals when cataract or LASIK consultations become necessary, keeping patients in a continuity-of-care model rather than handing off to an outside specialist without transition. The practice suits families with kids needing their first exam or updated prescriptions, established patients who prefer seeing the same doctor year to year, and anyone tired of the chain-store phone-tree experience where an exam and glasses order split across different departments. Local residents with VSP or EyeMed plans have the same acceptance-advantage as a big-box option, but without the wait-time and appointment-flexibility tradeoffs that come with high-volume mall locations. For a straightforward exam with same-location frame browsing and quick turnaround on finished glasses, the smaller independent practice on Margarita offers the direct-access model most long-term patients prefer.

California Eye Professionals operates a full-scope optometry practice in the Temecula Regional Center on Margarita Road, handling routine eye exams, contact lens fitting, and management of conditions like dry eye alongside pediatric care and low vision work. The office carries frames in-house and maintains a lab for lens finishing, reducing the typical wait between exam and pickup. Standard vision plans—VSP, EyeMed, and others—are accepted, covering most employed residents' insurance. The practice suits patients who prefer a standalone optometry office over big-box chain settings, particularly families managing multiple family members' prescriptions and those needing contact lens follow-up care or dry eye treatment beyond a basic exam. For surgical referrals—cataract evaluation, LASIK consultation—California Eye Professionals handles the workup and coordinates with specialists rather than handling surgery in-house. Margarita Road's retail corridor placement makes it convenient for errands without requiring a separate trip to a medical complex.
The Dr's have always been great, but the staff is rude. Especially the optical department. They were extremely rude to the point my husband never wants us to go back. So now I'm searching for a new place after 12 years...
Dr. Burns performed cataract surgery on both of my eyes. What a wonderful thing to get new eyes! Dr. Burns took the time to explain the surgery and spend time later to be sure that all was well. He is an exceptional doctor. Thank you Dr. Burns.
Cataract surgery in my left eye has been delayed for two years because of other issues in that eye that prevented the surgery when I should have had it. As a result, my original cataract surgeon said it was too far advanced for him to do surgery on and that I should see Dr. Richard Burns, who is kn...
