I love Dr. Quaranta!! I have been going to him for 14 years and he is so awesome! He is great at his job and makes you feel very comfortable and he is also extremely knowledgeable and doesn’t pressure you into buying anything that you don’t need and he only recommends things that you need. He is amazing and so is his staff!!

I appreciate the fact that you showed me the pictures of my eyes and explained what I was looking at which helped me understand what is going on with my eyes. No other professional has ever done this before. Thank you for taking the time.Don

Christine was great. Just meet her, but she had a bubbly personality and made my eye examination pleasant. Felt as though i’ve known here for years! Dr.Quaranta was very pleasant and he took time to read my results from my previous eyecare specialist. And made more recommendations to help with my eyes and prescription. I don’t ever remember, not feeling as though , i was just a number. But i counted as a person Thanks, Dr.Quaranta .

Love the team at Sonoran Desert Eye Center. I never feel rushed, everyone is very helpful, personable and professional. Dr. Quaranta is so patient with me and explains everything so I understand what to do to care for my eyes. Thank you all so much
Dec 16, 2018
I am always met with pleaseant smiles and positive interactions when I come yearly for my check up. Dr. Quaranta makes sure to explain things thoroughly and takes his time with you. I have been coming here for three years and will continue to do so.

I had an issue with something in my eye. I am new to the area and I am so grateful that they were able to squeeze me into their schedule. The doctor was awesome and got the little pebble off the inside of my eyelid. They have great service. I am so glad to have found this wonderful eye doctor. I will continue to use them for all of my eye care.
Nov 9, 2018
I really appreciate the doctor and his staff. I have a difficult contact fitting and found him to be through and patient through the process. He doesn’t rush through the apppointment and sends time with you. The staff is great with the details on payment and cost up front on glasses and contacts.
Nov 8, 2018
It was great. I love the way the doc and the tech paid attention to how I wanted to see. They did a great job of explaining my issues to me and how the prescription for my contacts would work. The gal who fitted me for my glasses paid a lot of attention to my budget and how the glasses would work with my schedule of using the computer and driving, etc.
Nov 7, 2018
Dr. Quaranta always takes great care to thoroughly check my eyes and explain all the findings to me. He lets me know what we need to do for each issue and when to be concerned and when not to. His staff is great at helping pick out frames and adjusting them when they need to be adjusted.
Oct 11, 2018
Dr. Quaranta is always pleasant and professional. I appreciate that he listens to me and is always trying to improve my vision. The staff are pleasant and never give me the feeling I am imposing . I am very appreciative of all the staff and Dr. Quaranta.

I’d like to preface this by saying I don’t particularly like going to see any doctor (sorry)! However, everyone in the office was warm and inviting. Kaeli put me at ease, and was very knowledgeable. Dr. Quaranta was equally friendly and took the time to explain his findings and answered my questions.
Aug 24, 2018
I received much more than I expected on my first visit to Dr. Quaranta. I came in to get a perscription for a new pair of glasses. The very thorough examination the I recieved revealed a problem that i wasn’t even aware of. It turned out that I had hole in my retina that could lead to a detached retina! If I had not recieved this information, my first clue that something was wrong may have come when the retina detached. This almost always results in a permanent degradation of vision and possibly blindness. But armed with this information, there is a straight forward preventative procedure that I can have done that will address the issue without impairing my vision. Thank you Dr. Quaranta!
Aug 16, 2018
Dr. Quaranta is very kind and thorough. He answered all of my questions and was very helpful explaining the different lens options available to me. His staff is great. They are very polite and helpful. The office has a great selection of frames in every price range. I am very happy with the service that I received.
Jul 30, 2018
I enjoyed the professionalism and dedication of dr. Quaranta. He took his time to talk to me and explain all the different options I had. His assistant was just as professional. I would definitely recommend Dr. Quaranta’s services.
Jun 25, 2018
I found the staff to be very courteous and helpful. Dr. Quaranta is very knowledgeable and makes it very comfortable to speak with him. He continues to provide the best best service continuously upgrading his tools to give the best eye exam with little discomfort (if any) to his patients. David N.

Wrong prescription and costly. The Dr. spent time and listened to my concerns. However my eyes, especially the right one was extremely painful when wearing glasses or the contacts. I got a second opinion from the Costco optometrist. She had all new digital equipment and almost immediately discovered my prescription was wrong! I paid $65 for her glasses exam. I paid Dr Quaranta $200 for glasses & contact exam, and optomap.
Jun 20, 2018
Dr. Q is a great and doctor. He is genuine in his interactions and thorough in his exams. He anticipates my visits and is careful to ensure I am receiving the proper instruction/guidance to achieve my best vision. I have been with him from the beginning and will stick with him to the end. Thank you, Dr. Q!
Jun 4, 2018
I absolutely love going to Sonoran Desert Eye & seeing Dr. Quaranta. He is an excellent Dr. & provides exceptional customer service. All the staff here are a pleasure to work with, Thank You. I have not heard from the Eye Dr. that provides Lasik surgery, yet.
Jun 1, 2018
I have never been to an eye exam before where I received such a thorough and complete exam. Dr. Quaranta went the extra mile to secure the best prescription for my declining eyesight, and I appreciated his efforts very much! His caring demeanor was also greatly appreciated and his assistant also did an excellent job.
May 12, 2018
Have been going to Sonora Eye Care for 3 years and wouldn’t go anywhere else. Entire staff friendly and very helpful. Dr. Quaranta is extremely thorough, knowledegable, and personable. He genuinely cares for his patients and seems passionate about what he does.
Apr 11, 2018
Dr Quaranta & Staff were very professional knowledgeable and thorough to provide me my annual eye exam. Care was given to ensure the all parts of the exam were explained and purchasing new glasses was a breeze. Good Job!
Mar 29, 2018
Dr. Quaranta and his staff are awesome. He is great at explaining things to you and they have this amazing new technology that allows the doctor to see the back of your eye without being dilated. The office is clean and the staff is friendly, courteous and professional.
Mar 15, 2018
I had an emergency eye issue that I needed to check out. When I called, they were very helpful and said to come in right away, although I was a new patient who had never been there before. The girls were very pleasant and helpful, and Dr. Quaranta and his assistant were very pleasant, helpful and comforting, as I was very stressed out regarding my eye issue. He also recommended a specialist for me to see.
Mar 7, 2018
Everyone was very pleasant, the girl at the front desk even took time to call my insurance company to see if my insurance covered my exam. It is hard to find a Dr office anymore with people in the front office that are nice and don’t treat you like you owe them something. Very impressed!
Mar 3, 2018
My first time there. Upon entering the waiting area, I was greeted my a smiling, friendly receptionist. After filling out the needed forms I was called back to the exam room for my eye exam. Everyone was friendly, knowledgeable and answered all my questions.
Feb 3, 2018
Dr. Quaranta and his staff are courteous and exceptionally knowledgeable. Having Pars Planitis, in my experience, it is rare to find a doctor who both knows what it is and how to watch for trouble with it. To top it all off, Dr. Quaranta uses an Optomap machine that captures a highly detailed view of my eyes, with minimal effort and without the use of dilating drops. I highly recommend Sonoran Desert Eye Center for any eye care needs or concerns.
Jan 29, 2018
Dr. Q always provides excellent service. He does usually run a little behind, but he is worth the wait. He is very detailed during exams making sure he explains everything and addresses any issues you may be experiencing. And I guarantee you’ll get a laugh during the exam since he has an upbeat, humorous personality. They have newer technology that gives you the option to avoid dilating your eyes and a large selection of frames. His front office staff explains your particular benefits well to make sure you stay within your coverage. I used to live a mile from his office which is what brought me to him when I needed my first pair of glasses, but I have moved and now drive over 30 miles just to see him. I would recommend him to anyone.
Dec 23, 2017
Amazing office. Spends lots of time on you to make sure everything is perfect. Have been going here for years, always super happy with my glasses and they have lots of cute options. My head is on the small side so it’s hard for me to find glasses but they carry a decent variety of petite adult frames.
Nov 29, 2017
As a new patient, I showed up late, but they still took me. I also had my 1-year-old with me, and one person on staff spent some time with him while I got my eyes checked (for some reason he was very fussy). They were very courteous and very professional. I plan to go back.
Nov 9, 2017
I have been a patient for two years and I really like the doctor and staff. He doesn’t rush you through the appointment and takes the time to answer your questions. I’ve had a lot of eye doctors in the past due to my poor vision, insurance changes, etc. and Dr. Quaranta is one of the best!
Nov 8, 2017
Dr. Quaranta is the best optometrist I have seen so far and I have been wearing glasses for over 35 years. He and his team were very patient, I didn’t feel rush at anytime. He explained everything in easy to understand manner andd answered all of my questions. Needing progressive glasses for the first time he made me at ease and I truly believed he has my best interest at heart.
Oct 23, 2017
I have been a patient of Dr. Quaranta’s since 2009; my experience at Sonoran Eye Center is consistently excellent. Dr. Quaranta and all of his staff always provide great customer service. Dr. Quaranta is a great doctor, he is very knowledgeable, incredibly patient and thorough. I can’t imagine ever trusting my eye sight to another Doctor.
Oct 18, 2017
This was my first visit to Sonoran desert Eye Center. I was very impressed with the staff, same day appointment, and the care given. I was able to order contacts the same day, and the price was very reasonable. My husband and I will definitely be going here for future eye care
Sep 14, 2017
This is a VERY well run office & I was treated very well by everyone: the front desk folks, the testing tech, the optometrist, & the frame/lens tech. Everyone made sure I understood what was being communicated while remaining friendly and professional. Last, I believe there was a lot of care taken to ensure all areas of my vision were examined and corresponding: lenses, frames, & contacts were evaluated, proposed, discussed, & agreed on
Sep 12, 2017
I first started seeing Dr Quaranta when he had an office in Maryvale, about 10 years ago. He then moved to Chandler and even though he’s about 35 miles away now, I decided to follow him there. That’s how much I trust him.
Aug 17, 2017
Dr. Quaranta and his staff were wonderful. He was very thorough and the staff was very friendly. Even though we had to wait and our appointments took quite some time, our experience was still great. I would refer every one who needs a good vision doctor to see him!
Jul 28, 2017
This is the second year coming here for my son. They have been amazing treating him so I decided to get my first vision exam here as well! I was nervous but Dr. Quintana made sure I laughed and was very comfortable. He answered all of my questions and addressed my concerns and made me feel at ease with the diagnostic. When choosing my frames, the lady was very patient! I am very picky!! But she remained very helpful. Front office staff also very nice and helpful. My son and I will definitely continue coming here and already referred friends and family!
Jul 7, 2017
Dr. Quaranta and his staff are always punctual and professional. The Doc explains everything in ways I can understand and makes me feel very much at ease during eye examinations. The office is also quiet and clean. Overall great experience every time I go!
Jun 26, 2017
Dr. Quaranta is fantastic! May be a bit dramatic, but I feel like he gave me my life back! Something got in my eye on a Saturday morning. Went to urgent care and was advised to put drops in my eye and all would be well within 24 hours. 48 hours later my eye was worse and they were able to get me in first thing on Monday morning. Within minutes of seeing Dr. Quaranta, he found what he called a “cactus spike” in my left eye. He plucked it out and I had immediate relief! Within a couple hours I could see clearly and I felt much better. And the girls at the front desk were very helpful and kind. A definite repeat customer here! Thank you!
May 24, 2017
Dr.Q is the most excellent ophthalmologist, who is taking care of all our family needs for almost 5 years. Dr.Q is very caring, with full personal focus and attention to detail is simply superb! Each visit we all learn something new from him. He makes our visits a fun, educational experience and not a chose. He has most excellent supporting staff who are very courteous.
Apr 14, 2017
Come once a year for my annual exam and contacts coming on 5 years now. Each visit has been consistently great. Little to know waiting and everyone is professional and knowledgeable. The doctor and assistant really take the time to get it right and I always leave knowing my vision is as good as it can be.
Apr 4, 2017
Very efficient and professional prCrice for all your eye care needs. Whole family goes here and have been for several years now. Staff are friendly, professional and efficient and best of all, thane you at the a.loted appointment time. Huge plus compared to other doctors and practices here in Az.
Mar 18, 2017
It was as very comfortable and awesome experience to use this full service eye center. I felt well taken care of. It’s a much better experience than the “big box” places that are around. Everyone was straight forward, where the other places feel like a conversation with used car lot salesperson, sometimes getting passed around and other times passed by.
Feb 27, 2017
Love it here it was my first visit and definitely won’t be my last everyone was so nice and so professional and patient with me it was my first time getting contacts and it toke me forever to get them In and out and the optician was fantastic as well as the Dr. Just a great enviornment.
Feb 17, 2017
I was thrilled with the comprehensive service and attention I received by Dr. Quaranta and his staff. Everyone was so kind and professional in their demeanor. I appreciate everyone’s willingness to answer my questions and seek MY preferences with regard to handling my vision issues. I will definitely return.
Feb 15, 2017
I was very please at my appointment with Dr. Quaranta. He and his staff were courteous and professional. Dr. Quaranta explained every step thoroughly during the examination and provided plan options for ongoing eye care.
Feb 13, 2017
What a great doctor. This man is very kind & courteous. The eye exam went perfectly & I was not suspicious about my new prescription like I previously was with other eye doctors. Thank you, Doctor J. Kevin! I will be returning next year for my new exam, no doubt.
Feb 6, 2017
The whole staff at Sonoran Desert Eye Center was friendly, helpful, and professional. I was taked back 15 minutes early to get things started. The staff helped me pick out a great pair of frames after my appointment, explained my different options, and I left feeling very satisfied with the price and experience.
Jan 27, 2017
Dr. Q has saved my eye. He caught a retinal tear a couple years ago. Great service, very personable, always on time. Best eye doc I’ve been too. I prefer the family feel as opposed to the cookie cutter franchise business model. Same great staff every year I go in there. Great samples, and advice and I’ll probably always go to them.
Jan 26, 2017
The entire staff here is wonderful! They make it as comfortable as possible and they listen to all of your concerns. Definitely the best eye care office I have been to and Dr. Quaranta is extremely knowledgeable and helpful! Will definitely continue to go here for all of my eye care needs!
Jan 23, 2017
When I visited the office to book my appointment a week in advance, the office staff gave me papers to take home to fill out, saving me time. When I arrived for my appointment staff welcomed me with a smile and was very knowledgeable about the products they sell. They provided me with many options to fit my specific needs, including finding out if I could get lenes that changed from light to dark in a yellow tint. Dr Quaranta and his assistant took the time to explain everything about my eye exam, the results and made sure I understood eveything..Best eye exam, service and experience. I ever had.
Jan 6, 2017
After 30 years, I finally found someone who took the time to listen to me, who understood what I wanted/needed, and who willing accommodated me. In the current climate of the healthcare industry, this type of customer care is almost non-existent and I do so appreciate Dr. Quaranta’s approach to his clients. Thank you and be assured that I will recommend Sonoran Desert Eye Center to all of my friends.
Dec 14, 2016
Appreciate the professionalism from Dr. Quaranta and his staff. Tricare sent me to another Dr for cataract surgery and that staff was not nearly as professional. Dr. Quaranta did the exam himself instead of a tech and he was truly interested in the patient. Thank You!
Dec 3, 2016
Dr. Quaranta and his staff are just amazing. The front office staff is very friendly and answers any questions or concerns you may have about your account and records. They help you through the entire process from being warmly welcomed, to assisting to getting just the right pair of glasses. Dr. Quaranta takes the time to thoroughly examine your eyes. He doesn’t breeze through your appointment and doesn’t rely on machines to make a diagnosis. He asks questions and takes your feedback and takes that into account to ensure that you get the best vision possible. You can place your trust with Dr. Quaranta and his staff to make sure your eyes are well taken care of.
Dec 3, 2016
Had a wonderful visit. Tiffany checked me in with professionalism and helped me get comfortable with the office. Dr. Quaranta could have been my neighbor. He was friendly and it was easy to talk with him. He was extremely knowledgeable during the exam and he explained the results in terms that I could understand. I also met Michael and Christy, both of whom were very informative and friendly.
Nov 19, 2016
Minor wait at beginning but after that everything else went smooth. Was not aware of paperwork that had to be filled out, could of done that online prior to appointment if I was made aware of that. All personnel that I dealt with were polite and professional. Pleasure to deal with.
Nov 9, 2016
Found Dr Quaranta to be highly competent. He describes his findings as he’s seeing them. He explains findings in depth. The staff were also friendly and helpful. The office is attractive and very spacious. I liked that the exam room door is left partially open as you wait for the staff or doctor to return to the exam room you are in.
Sep 12, 2016
Best Optometrist and office I have ever been to and I have been in heavy prescription glasses since 3rd grade (I’m now 29). Dr. Quaranta is personable and skilled. I am good he caught tufts on my retina and when I went to have them treated, the retina specialist was surprised that the optometrist had caught them. I also love the office itself and the staff. They understand being on a budget, ans they help me get the most for my money as well as the best products for my lifestyle (mother of 3 children 5 and under with one on the way). They are patient with my kids and I dont feel judged or like im bothering anyone. I drive all the way from Tucson to be seen here. I also brought my 4 year old to be checked a couple of days ago and had a great experience. The doctor and staff knew exactly how to treat a child coming to the eye doctor for the first time. Can’t say enough good!
Sep 5, 2016
Dr. J. Kevin Quaranta was knowledgeable and professional. Kim was just out of this world—she was inquisitive and professional and suggestive and how to arrive at the correct prescription. I so appreciated that because I had a previous prescription that just wasn’t allowing me to see clear and crisp and clean my vision. Christie was knowledgeable and thorough and I felt everything just went perfect.Thank you so much for all of your time
Sep 3, 2016
I needed a new eye doctor and I think I found the perfect one! Dr. Quaranta is professional, fun, and knowledgeable. His staff really make the effort to make you comfortable. They have a great section of glasses and are more then willing to help you pick the perfect pair. I will definitely be returning to this place for my next exam!
Aug 16, 2016
Best experience ever! I absolutely loved this office the whole staff was unbelievably kind and answered all my questions. The doctor was thorough, kind and explained everything really well. I will definitely be back!
Jul 30, 2016
My appointment started immediately on time and Dr. Quaranta’s support staff was swift and attentive. Dr. Quaranta himself was also very good at his job, and I appreciated his attention to detail. I appreciated the wide variety of eyeglass frames on hand, and that they gave me a 20% discount because I don’t have optical insurance. It was a wonderful experience and Sonoran Desert Eye Center has won a customer as long as I live in the East Valley.
Jul 28, 2016
Always great! Always striving for the best! Always a great staff! Always, always, great in general. A doctor who truly wants you to have the best eyes your body will allow 🙂
Jul 16, 2016
Sonoran Desert Eye Center is an awesome eye practice. The staff is very friendly and knowledgeable. Dr. Kevin always takes the time to explain possible options and what is going on with your eyes and eye health.
Jul 16, 2016
Really liked this doctor and his staff. They really listen and help determine viable options and the best solution for you individual needs. Willing to take whatever time was needed to get it perfect.
Jun 28, 2016
These guys are awesome! I get quality care every time I’m there and this last time around I had to take my 5 year old daughter for an exam. She was a nightmare and they were so patient with us while we for her calmed down enough so the exam could take place! They are well worth the 40 minute drive from house!
May 26, 2016
Front office great. I will never buy glasses there however because the past two years, your eye glass tech is not personable, nor does she ever get up to offer help or suggestions! You used to have a more mature and personable one.
May 8, 2016
Was hoping for a better selection of men’s frames but was able to find something that will work. At other places I’ve been to the person working with me to select frames was a little more interested/involved in helping to select a few to choose from. Since I only buy new frames every couple of years I was hoping to get some help or suggestions since I like the style I currently have now.
Apr 4, 2016
We waited an hour past my appointment but I found out when I did see the Dr. that there was an emergency which I completely understand. The only thing would be if they had told us there was an emergency while we were waiting it would have had us understand sooner and not be wondering what was going on.
Feb 19, 2016
Got in the same day my issue occurred. The lady at the front desk told me that I had been scheduled two days previously, and had missed my appointment. Not likely, since I was in Tucson two days earlier, and had no reason at that time to make an appointment. The five stars are not my rating. They were just there, and I can’t change them. Everything after the initial reception was excellent
Feb 10, 2016
With every eye appointment that I have had with Sonoran Eye has always been exceptional! The atmosphere from when you first walk in to when you walk out has been such a great experience! Thank you to the staff and Dr Quaranta!

Jan 22, 2016
Abbey is very self-conscious about her eyes so when the doctor talked about different options to reduce the size she took that very personal. As in other people including the doctor thinks she is different and ugly with these eyes.
Nov 5, 2015
A projector was down in one of the rooms which is the reason for my wait time. Doctor was very courteous and apologized for my long wait. Both of my children were seen in weeks prior and were immediately seen. Staff is very courteous. Great place to get your eyes looked at, would definitely recommend.
Oct 7, 2015
I was impressed with Dr. Quaranta’s knowledge and the time that he spent with me exploring options. I did not feel like I was being moved down a conveyor belt, but rather was surprised at the degree of investment he displayed regarding my difficulties.
Sep 13, 2015
I would highly recommend this office to anyone looking for an easy eye exam with friendly staff. As someone who struggles with things in or near my eyes, I found this exam to be the least stressful I’ve ever had. The technician who performed the glaucoma test was fast and efficient and made me feel very comfortable. Thanks to Dr. Quaranta and the entire staff for an easy, enjoyable, and affordable experience!
Sep 8, 2015
I am always pleased to see Dr. Q and his staff. With them I am more than a number, I am genuinely cared for. I have been seeing him for my glaucoma care for a few years now. He takes an active role in keeping the pressures stable, and informing me on any new developments in treatment and care. Our family will continue to see Dr. Q as long as he practices. : )
Sep 2, 2015
The only reason I put not really for question 5 is because there were four staff members at the front desk when I walked in and while they were all talking about work related things, it did take some time for someone to ask why I had come in. I wish someone had acknowledged me and let me know they would help me in just a moment, but they were very kind during the interactions I did have with them.
Aug 28, 2015
I would like to give my heartfelt thanks to your Dr. Quaranta for the excellent care you and your staff have provided to my family and I. I feel totally confident that my eye care needs are being met. Thank you again.
Aug 12, 2015
I was very pleased w the exam by the doctor. But I have concerns with the prescription for my reades because his assistant was having trouble finding the range on my old readers. Also your young assistants was unable to assist me on a new pair of glasses. She needs extra training on your products. My confidence in your staff is very low
Jul 23, 2015
ALWAYS RECEIVE NOTHING SHORT OF EXEMPLARY SERVICE FROM THE ENTIRE STAFF…ALL OF YOU ARE THE BOMB!!!!
