Rachel, Umrah and Rihanna are so impressive! I was lucky enough to have all three of them help me figure out my glasses situation–I walked in somewhat clueless. Their professionalism, patience, expertise and uncommon graciousness truly shined through, making the process seamless. These three young women could not have done a better job representing Dr. Lax and Central Park Optical. Thank you!

Dr Alan Lax is by far one of the best doctors I've ever had. I've been going to him for years and don't know what I'll do when he retires, I hope he never does! The office staff is helpful, kind, and knowledgeable. Good selection of frames and contacts available. Reasonable prices. I cannot recommend this office enough.

Dr Lax is the kindest and the most conscientious doctor I have ever seen. I have been visiting him for 15 years and every visit i am reminded why he is truly unique. After my eye inspection, he told me my prescription has changed a bit but I do not really need new glasses. I should wait till after Sept when my insurance will cover it. On another occasion he replaced my sons broken frame for free even though totally my son's fault. He is a gem and I strongly recommend him to everybody.
