An absolute hidden neighborhood gem… out of every review I’ve written this place deserves it the most. Nothing but absolute love for this place. The owner Larry is incredibly kind, generous and easygoing. He gives some amazing discounts and the glasses are always going to be cheaper than anywhere else. He’s also incredibly flexible with his work, he can fix glasses, turn them into polarized sunglasses, find out your prescription by giving him old lenses etc. And he will do all that in front of you in less than five minutes. He also does contacts btw!!! Super knowledgeable. Also honorable mention the cat Fefe!!! Makes the experience tens times better because that...read full review
I was visiting and the owner is very kind, and helped me pop my lens back in after it fell out. He retightened the screw and he charged me nothing. I tipped him anyway as a thank you! Thank you very much for your help and a life saver!
