Liz2024-03-07They were very professional and kind nice environment you felt welcome when you step into there business
Andy Hickey2024-03-05It is a very nice shop and the staff is very nice. It's a walkable location for the downtown residents.
Zach Hensler2024-02-27Very good.
Quentin Hayes2024-02-15Really nice place. In a world where every eye doctor stocks the same products from the same monopoly it's rare to find a place both covered by insurance and with affordable frames from independently owned brands. The store was was fairly small but thoughtfully curated with a wide variety of different styles. The service and exam themselves was great. The doctor was nice and gave me a more thorough exam than I am used too. I don't remember ever having my depth perception assessed by prior doctors. Highly recommended if you are in need of an eye exam or just searching for frames.
Thomas Ritchie Jr2024-02-12Very courteous, considerate of your time and very knowledgeable to answer any questions.
Cathy Magness2024-01-26Beautiful office, friendly staff, best eye exam I’ve ever had. Highly recommend!
