I’ve worn glasses my entire life, and I’ve never had an experience like this <3 (literal godsend)! My glasses were recently stolen, and after waiting nearly a month for LensCrafters to make a replacement (I later found out that they did not have the capability to make my lenses), I found this place on Google. They made glasses for my extremely high prescription (−11) in LESS than 15 minutes and the quality is AMAZING!

What stood out most was how much they cared about getting everything right. This place was a godsend when I needed glasses, and I’ll be coming here for all my prescription glasses from now on.

Took my sunglasses here to get prescription lenses put in and couldn't be happier with how they came out. The staff was super knowledgeable, walked me through my lens options without any pressure, and made sure the fit was dialed in before I left. The lenses look clean and the frames still look exactly like they did out of the box. Great selection in the shop too if you're looking for something new. If you're on the Westside and need glasses done right, this is the spot. I'll definitely be back.

Great experience! They were fast, super helpful, and have an amazing selection of designer glasses. I brought in a pair of my own glasses to have the lenses replaced, and they had them done in 15 minutes! Veronica was very helpful and super sweet! Art, the lens maker, was amazingly fast and kind. I’ll definitely be back! Definitely recommend!
