This place is a rip off. If you got insurance, go to your in network optometry and you will pay a fraction of what this place will try to charge you. What a waste of time! read more

The parents of a classmate of my 4 year old son recommended this eyeglass store and I couldn't be more pleased with the quality and service. They have a wonderful variety of kids glasses and even carry our favorite brand, Kids Bright Eyes. The owner is patient and helpful. My son broke his glasses falling down and the owner was able to fix them for no charge. We're already repeat customers and it's wonderful to know there's a neighborhood store we can rely on in a pinch as it's very troubling for a kid when their glasses break! read more

David was amazing with my 2.5-year old- so patient, gentle, and kind. He really took his time explaining everything to me and made sure I felt confident about how to care for her glasses. You can tell he truly cares and loves what he does. Highly recommended! read more

I was having a hard time finding glasses for my teenager. Thrilled to have found a pair here that she loves! David is so kind and did an amazing job with her tricky prescription. Thank you so much David!! read more

David is caring, honest and funny. He is a kind, wonderful and really knows his business. J=Highly recommend

Called around for pricing and this was the best price in the area for the lenses I wanted. The owner (David) completed them within 24 hours. Good selection, reasonable prices, excellent value. I was satisfied enough that I selected a couple of additional pairs when picking up the first one. read more

What a fantastic experience. I came in to get the lenses on my sun glasses replaced and while I waited my turn, I got to witness the owner have the most incredible customer service with 2 separate children. As a mom, it made me so happy to see how gentle and caring he was with them. When it was my turn he explained to me the options and was very patient while I made my decision. He then was able to switch them out immediately on the spot. He also had a huge selection of both adult and kids glasses. And the prices were reasonable. I highly recommend this place. Fantastic customer service. Thank you! read more

I haven't received my glasses yet, but so far the experience and service have been fantastic! Great selection!!

David is truly amazing. He is so passionate and caring. My 2 year old daughter is so stubborn and we were afraid she will not wear prescription glasses. David picked a perfect pair for her and she wears them non stop. Thank you David! read more

I go by Lauren Glasses, I have over 100 pairs and I only get them here... need I say more?

Was recommended by a friend and former colleague to AB See. I needed to get new prescription lenses for several pairs of glasses that I love. David the owner was pleasant and knowledgeable and I knew I was in good hands! Had him put my latest prescription lenses (3 pairs of clear and 2 pairs of sunglass lenses) into my current frames at very reasonable and fair prices. He did a great job and I'm very pleased. I only purchased lenses but they have an extensive selection of name brand sunglasses and frames at great prices. I especially liked their Ray Ban collection. In summary, I recommend AB See! read more

This is a great place to get prescription glasses and sunglasses. David the owner took great care of me and Michelle the assistant was there to help, the selection is so great that when you walk in you'll find a pair of glasses that you will like he is very experienced and knows what he's doing. I met somebody who has been going there for 25 years I highly recommend David if you're in West LA and you're looking for a pair of prescription glasses this is a place to go 5*. Tell him that Rico sent you. read more

This is my go to place to buy glasses! David and Michelle are always so welcoming and have so much knowledge. I really appreciate their honest every time I come in. They have a variety of frames and keep up with the fashion and designers frames for a fraction of the retail price. They also have a bunch of kids frames for your little ones! HIGHLY RECOMMEND! read more

Awesome service! Came in because I needed my glasses tighten and they offered to help for free :)

The best glasses store..my son had glasses that were broken and I called or brought them to probably four places and no one would fix them! Here, David fixed them and he did it for free. They also have the best prices on frames and lenses. Will come here for all my glasses needs. read more

WOW - What a great experience I had at AB See Optical. One of the legs/arms fell off my favorite reading glasses, so I went to AB See Optical because of the great reviews. I met with David, the owner, who is very kind and professional. He did an amazing job putting back together the leg of my glasses. He texted me the next day to pick up... that simple!! Plus, he didn't ever charge me.... how unexpected and kind. My overall experience was fantastic, and the next time I need a new prescription lens, I will not hesitate to return!! Thank you, David!! - Rebecca read more

A B See Optical is the best place ever if you need children's glasses. We have been going here since my son was only 9 months old and he is now 9 year years old. David is truly the best and always makes the perfect recommendations. read more

I have been a customer for over 10 years and would not go anywhere else. David is fantastic. So are his prices, selection and advice.

I've been coming to A B See and Mr. Miretsky for many years and my wife and children have been happy customers. He takes good care of us and makes excellent style suggestions and gets a perfect fit. I've tried online glasses but came back to A B See for both quality and service. Even better in his new location which is nearer my home and has much better parking than the old location. read more

David is incredible. He lovingly takes care of his patrons, does impeccable custom work, and charges lower than normal prices. I'm a customer for life! read more

Always the best best prices better than buying online, over here it's always Black Friday, I've been coming here for years and highly recommend this place read more

When a place gets only one & five star reviews you have to pay attention. I went here because I was referred by two different friends. i stupidly had more than one pair of glasses done. I say stupidly because I trusted my friends instead of my first experience. I have had the same experience as all the one star reviews with the exception of the person who spoke of body odor, etc. He did not smell. He is incredibly rude. His wife however is lovely. I give one star for her kind countenance. About the frames I brought in, he complained about the fact they were big then said, "Why do you want to use these? Their just cheap (brand name)". The frames I brought in cost $175 not Prada but not his $25 or $90 stiff plastic things either. Did I leave? No. I continued because my friends told me he was good. When I had a problem with one of the frames, he blamed the frames (the arm broke because he did something wrong.) He said that company had problems with that style from the very beginning. I researched it. It wasn't true. Then he wanted to charge me to fix them. Even when I went back to have the fit adjusted on another pair, he griped. He did a good job on my sunglasses. When all was said and done, I get eyestrain from the reading glasses he made within minutes of wearing them and I need these particular glasses to do 85% of my work. I'll be taking them to my doctor to find out if he put in the right prescription. Until I get a correct pair, my work has to wait because I cannot tolerate the pain in my right eye when I wear them. His prices are not low - they were not a discount for me anyway. When I told my brother-in-law how much I paid, he said, "You could've gotten them much cheaper at Costco". This was my fault because I let the opinions of others override my experience. Don't do that. It was my fault because at the first complaint of my choice or the grumpiness, I ignored common sense and continued to do business. I will not be going back. read more

Love this place. Had a pair of prescription Ray Ban's that Lens-crafters said could not be fixed. The man here at A B See (I didn't get his name) fixed them and straightened out my frames for $25.00. I picked them up the next day and couldn't be happier. Thanks again, I will come back here when I need new lenses. -Adam read more

Got the third pair of glasses and probably 4th lenses for my son here. Great customer service, several options of glasses to choose from, fast orders of new lenses. We lost one pair and had a new frames with new lenses ready the next day! read more

My 5 year old daughter broke her glasses over the weekend and we did not have a backup set. Without much optimism I looked for assistance on a Sunday morning and lo and behold found David at A B See Optical. I told me to come right in and he would take a look. Long story short, the part was not fixable but he did have another set of frames that would take her existing lenses in stock. After ~20 minutes I was out of there with my problem solved at a price I was happy to pay. Thank you David! read more

The best optical shop in LA. David is extraordinarily helpful and the new location is wonderful.

This place is a no frills get the job done for you at a fair price. The owner greeted and treated me well and gave me several options. He was knowledgeable and sincere. I appreciated his Honesty because I'm dealing with my second eyes and to not have my RX done right would have been a disappointment. I love patronizing Mom & Pop shops like this where they do the work themselves in their back workshop. I literally walked in via the back door where the owner was working. I also received a complimentary adjustment on my sunglasses even though I didn't purchase them there. He told me the frame was still great and I didn't need to buy a new pair but if ever I wanted he could add my RX to the lenses...well that just saved me several hundred $$ on new frames! I will definitely go back to get my RX on my sunnies. It took less than a week to have my new RX filled and I love my new frames and lenses! Very happy with their service. read more

I came in here with a friend, the last stop on our list while price shopping for new lenses. When I saw this place, I immediately wrote it off, calling it a hole in the wall, and tried to convince said friend not to go in. I'm glad we did! David doesn't seem to care much for small talk, and is a little rough around the edges perhaps, but he knows his stuff. He patiently explained the different types of lenses and broke down the pricing for each, starting with the cheapest and working his way up, actually recommending we purchase something much cheaper than any of the other stores had suggested (not surprising). He also took the time to answer our questions about why his shop is significantly cheaper than any of the chain locations we'd been to. Suffice it to say, we left the frames there so he could get new lenses for them. I appreciated his help so much that I'm now going back to get a new pair of glasses for myself! This goes to show you can't judge a book by its cover. read more

My daughter has worn glasses since she was 22 months old and this is who my pediatric ophthalmologist recommended for the best selection of glasses for children. We've never looked elsewhere since! She's now almost 11 and she just got a new ''more grown up" pair of glasses. The service David provides is unmatched, his warmth, patience and attention to detail is deeply appreciated. I'm embarrassed that it's taken me almost 10 years to write this review but I take comfort in knowing I do always thank him for all his help. Thank you for taking such great care of my daughters glasses! Thank you, thank you, thank you! If I could give Absee Optical 10 stars, I would! read more

Call twice , The old man who answered was really rude both times. With that kind of help its better off . Seriously look elsewhere , Some ppl hate their job . read more

Knowledgable man. Cut me decent deal for two pairs at $89. But when I went to redeem his yelp offer of spend $50 for $75 worth he said, and I paraphrase " I need to take that deal off yelp. I cannot handle that. I already gave you good price." Bottom line, he wouldn't honor his offer put on yelp. And I give bait and switches (come in for one thing then told it isn't available, to try and get you to buy something more beneficial for them) and people not honoring their promotions one star. read more

I have awful luck with glasses because my vision is only just barely bad enough to need them intermittently. Their 2 for $46 deal can't be beat, even when you consider online places like Zenni or Coastal, because you can try them on here and there's no extra charge for shipping and coating. Yes, 2 pairs, frames and lenses - under $50. Sure, the selection is somewhat limited, but it's perfect for people like me who only wear glasses a few times a week and for very brief stretches. I just ordered my third and fourth pairs with them and they were ready the very next day! For my first set, I ordered a tinted pair to wear as sunglasses and they were wonderful. The quality is just fine and the owner and his wife were totally pleasant to me. Not to sound defeatist, but I'm sure I'll be back for my fifth and sixth pairs soon enough. Oh, one last thing: I'm fairly certain they do not have an optometrist on site, so come prepared with your prescription! read more

This was my first eyeglass store experience. I already had a prescription from my doctor but went to this place to pick out frames. I would just like to say that the person, who I think is the only one working there, is incredibely rude. He was very short with me with every question I asked, it felt like pulling teeth trying to get him to show me options for frames. His attitude was very negative and he never once smiled. Was one of the most unpleasant shopping experiences of my life! worst customer service I have seen in a while... read more

David is thee best! Honest and very straight forward. He know what looks best in your d is invariably right on!

Fast service, patient, not pushy and helpful! My baby was very happy as was I. Very reasonable prices. I'll be back soon

This place is awesome! My parent's have been taking me here since I was 5 (I'm 17 now) to get my glasses. No joke. David and his wife are so sweet :) I always find the perfect pair of eyewear and more! Sometimes it's hard to chose which one I want. But nevertheless, I'm always happy with what I get. They also have BIG selection of glasses/sunglasses for all ages and sport eyewear. I hope you check them out! Oh and parking is in the back! read more

Been buying specs here for the past 3 years. The prices can't be beat and since the lab is on-site you get your glasses in a day or two. Very Cool! The frame selection is not the broadest but the prices are lower than anywhere else I've gone. The reason they don't get the 5th star is difficult parking. read more

This place is the best!The selection of frames is extensive, and the personal service is outstanding. David comes up with just what you are looking for, and his suggestions are excellent. Don't be ripped off by other optical places that overcharge you for junk frames. Once you try A B See, you'll never look back. read more

We came here and David didn't try to up sell us on anything and he delivered on time as promised. It was a wonderful experience and when anyone asks me for a glasses place. I send them here. Thanks David. read more

I got a super cute pair of standard "geek chic" glasses in a day for $100 (frames & lenses). I *hate* shopping for glasses and I hate spending money on glasses because I don't enjoy wearing them. They're for first thing in the morning, late at night or on the odd occasion that I can't wear my contacts. A B See had a good enough selection that I found two frames that pleased me and decided on a good-quality, last season pair. David talked me through my lens choice without any unnecessary up sell (which I appreciated). And they were ready as promised the next day. The prices can't be beat. If expediency and value are priorities over designer brands and big choice, you will be very happy you came here. read more
