This place is absolutely a 10/10 Michael was extremely accommodating and super friendly. I always struggle getting glasses at other places because I have a high prescription. I was able to get good quality glass for a great price in a timely manner. I will definitely be coming back here :)
I’ve been a client for many many years. You can’t beat the price, 2 for the price of one why not visit? He has a nice selection, personable and friendly service. Michael the owner is very kind and will answer any of your questions or help with your glasses needs the best that he can. He does offer the thinnest lenses if your prescription is strong. He can cut the lenses in his shop and your glasses can be ready in a couple of hours. He doesn’t take insurance but that doesn’t matter because the price is very reasonable and you can use your flex spending. This is an independent shop so why not support your local community! Limited hours on Saturday 10-1. Overall...read full review
I've been coming to 241 Optical for a few years now and have been recommending it to friends and family. The owner Michael is wonderful to work with: patient, kind and so very friendly. It's refreshing to have a down-to-earth business like this in the hustle and bustle of Harvard Square.
