        optometrist was thorough and explained my prescription in detail. The staff helped me choose the perfect pair of glasses, and the selection was impressive. A great experience overall!

        Great Selection!

        I highly encourage anyone who wants the latest looks in eyewear to try this place. The staff is very helpful, especially Dr. Chet. If you want something that all those other places dont have this is the place to go! Im sending my husband there next week!
