I have been going here for many years with my child. The service and engagement has always been above and beyond. I highly recommend for kids and adults. read more

I have used glasses for most of my life and have been to many opticals. By FAR Angel Eyes/Awilda is AMAZING at what she does and how she does it. My vision is very complex necessitating very thick eye glasses. Somehow Awilda manages to make magic happen and make my glasses sleek, sheek and stylish! Her love for her craft, attentiveness and knowledge make you keep coming back. I definitely recommend! read more

I recently had cataract surgery, which improved my distance vision to the point where I didn't need glasses for everyday life, but still needed corrective lenses for reading. Awilda took me through the various options - progressive lenses or bifocals - very clearly explained the plusses and minuses of each, and patiently answered all of my questions. She has a warm, engaging personality and I never felt rushed. I've needed glasses for over 70 years, and my experience with Angel Eyes and Awilda was the best experience I've ever had. read more

I absolutely can not rate this place high enough. 5 stars is simply not enough to describe how great this place is. I went in recently with some broken, cheap aviators that were my great grandfathers. Both of the temples were broken and I was unable to even get the screws out to try and replace them with some cheap temples. I had brought them to Angel Eyes Optical and was greeted by Justin, whom claimed he could get it down swiftly. Although this was not the case, Justin kept trying and trying to replace to temples. He had gotten one fixed but could not fix the other but that did not stop him!!!! Just recently picked them up and they look just as they did when my grandfather owned them. Thank you guys so much!!! read more

Back in April, my FAVORITE pair of Celine Glasses randomly broke in half on the arm between the acetate. Based on how they broke, I was certain they were impossible to fix. Angel eyes, did the impossible and repaired them. Shoutout to Awilda and Justin. read more

I walked into Angel Eyes ready for a change. I had read all the positive reviews and had a good feeling. I told Awilda I needed new frames and wanted some I would be excited about. I have had glasses since the age of four but have preferred contacts for years, as I am far-sighted with a very strong prescription. Awilda quickly assessed my face shape and selected frames that were more flattering than any I'd worn before. After about an hour with her and Justin, I landed on four pairs. I have since come back for more. They all look great, and they are also the most comfortable glasses I've worn. I've never had lenses this thin and lightweight before. The prices were also extremely reasonable. Awilda's artistry is not to be underestimated: she has an amazing eye and fashion sense. She suggested slightly tinted gradients for two different pairs, and I am glad I trusted my instincts and let her work her magic. I would have never arrived at these glasses on my own, and they are beautiful. Angel Eyes transformed how I feel about eyewear. I adore Awilda and Justin. In addition to being great at what they do, they are wonderful people: warm, patient, and dedicated to their customers. I can't recommend them enough. read more

Awilda works her magic again. I spent an hour checking frames. Ultimately decided on 4 frames. All were perfect as expected. If you are looking for a frame that perfectly fits and is right for all occasions she's got you covered. If you are looking for a frame that turns heads and you will get compliments throughout the day, Awilda has the patience and the eye to guide you to the frame that works best. Tip of the day let her take the picture of you trying out the frames. read more

Awilda and Justin make eyeglass shopping a lovely experience. They're experienced and professional and the inventory is beautifully curated - but the most notable feature of Angel Eyes is the customer service. Awilda and Justin listen to your needs, then exceed your expectations. It's evident that the satisfaction and happiness of their customers is their first priority. Their warmth and kindness are outstanding. And on a practical note, both Awilda and Justin are masters at choosing super flattering frames and at honoring any budgetary restraints you may have. I wish I could give more than 5 stars - Angel Eyes is truly a great model of how a business should be run. read more

I brought a friend into this store late in the day but the employee at the store (very nice guy with tinted glasses) helped my friend and then personally delivered his order to UPS so that it would get out that night and the glasses would arrive before my friend had to go back to Mexico. Service and glasses were excellent!!! I will not shop for glasses anywhere else! The owner and all employees are wonderful! read more

I love shopping local especially with the experts at Angel Eyes! With a curated collection of interesting frames and a staff and owner with excellent taste, it's hard not to be excited about having vision that is no longer perfect! They are patient and caring as well as efficient. Always feel well taken care of and communication is a breeze. Thank you Awilda and Justin! read more

Great shop for multiple reasons. Well curated selection of frames, and Awilda and Justin provided helpful suggestion and feedback. They also made the extra effort twice to make sure I had replacement glasses when I needed them. First, I came in just 15 minutes to close hoping for a quick fix on some broken frames. The frames were custom with unique hinges so they could not be fixed on the spot, but Awilda provided a quick solution. She suggested I pick replacement frames of the same size and shape and she could insert my lenses from the broken frames. I walked out 15 minutes later with new glasses in time for my evening meeting. Second, I lost my glasses and needed new ones on a short time table before I left on vacation. Justin and Awilda worked with me to make this possible. They deserve and have my loyalty. I will definitely be getting all my future glasses at Angel Eyes Optical! read more

One of the hardest things is picking out glasses and angel eyes makes the process easy and fun! They are so pleasant and patient. Awilda was honest and knew what frame would fit my face. Angel eyes has a great selection of glasses for all ages. read more

This is a wonderful place for eyeglasses. Hillary was amazing with my daughter in helping her decide on frames. She's the best! She was very patient and knew exactly how to make the process engaging for my daughter and help with her decision-making. We've been here multiple times for eyeglasses and the staff is always helpful. They also have a very good variety of frames. read more

I can't believe I'm writing a review just now after happily going to Awilda (owner of this optical) for 12 years. I'm in a pickle once again with my current glasses. My nephew sat on them. I'm currently super busy at work and as I wish I can just visit the store any day to tell her my need, I cant. That's why I call the business without hesitation. I'm 1000% confident if I tell her what I want, she'll not only meet my needs but will suggest the suitable frames for my face structure! She's always been right about it too! I am super picky and I trust Angel eyes more than myself for frames. Thank you!!! read more

Wow! Patience, commitment, experience and care are words I would use to describe my recent experience with Angel Eyes Optical. The service I received from Awilda and Justin far exceeded my expectations. You can tell when a business owner is engaged and highly committed...Awilda is just that. When I first received my glasses the lenses were not quite right. Although I was willing to pay to get them redone, Awilda jumped through hoops with her lab to get them redone for only a nominal cost to cover her out of pocket expenses. I just picked up my new glasses and they are PERFECT, and I could not be happier. I highly recommend this optician and will be getting my next pair of eyeglasses here. read more

Awilda is the bomb. Period. I've briefly shopped at chain stores to get my lenses replaced due to a prescription change. I have a rimless frame, so my lenses are a bit tricker to cut, but nothing a professional can't handle. Awilda charged me way less and actually has access to vendors that knew how to cut my type of lens. Lenscrafters didn't. I also later wanted to thin out my lenses after getting my glasses back. Awilda just charged me an additional $85 for the adjustment fee vs. putting in an entirely new order and charging me $300+ for a new set of lenses. I happily paid the $85. Awilda really knows her stuff and will take good care of you. She's also a really pleasant lady who radiants joy. Happy to have stumbled into her shop and will have all my eye glasses needs taken care by her! read more

I have been going to Angel Eyes for several years for contact lenses and have always had pleasant experiences. The prices are great and Awilda and the crew are wonderful. When I began having trouble with my most recent lens prescription, Awilda climbed mountains to find a solution. She provided me with trial pairs but to no avail. My vision had simply deteriorated to the point where contacts were no longer an option. But, I was resistant to glasses ("vanity thy name is woman"), but with Awilda's gentle coaxing and the spectacular assortment of frames from which to choose, I now have the perfect glasses which suit all my needs! In these days when things are stressful enough, vision shouldn't be a scary obstacle on top of it all. So, feeling confident and comforted makes a world of difference and is much appreciated, thank you Angel Eyes! read more

What can I say! Simply STELLAR customer service, exceptional frames and just overall world class experience! I called Angel Eyes (new customer) to find out how quickly can they get a new prescription for me. There were so many obstacles against me, I live in queens, I had called them just a few hours before they close, and I had to get the new prescription for my daughter as her vision had significantly changed, and needed her new glasses ASAP! Just 24hrs and we had new frames and new prescription!!!!!! That's what you call A WOW service! And the plus side, they are conveniently located in the upper west side with parking right up front! If you want quick but most important QUALITY optical service... THIS IS YOUR PLACE! TRUST! read more

The nicest and best customer service ever! I went in to fix my glasses and left very happy.

I always find frames I like, Awilda's always super helpful, the prices are great, the glasses are made perfectly, and if not, she always accommodate changes for those times when I get extra picky. And I love not having to go downtown and instead can support a store in my neighborhood. Five stars for sure! read more

I've been a loyal customer of Angel Eyes Optical for about 4 years! The customer service here is impeccable, Awilda really makes you feel comfortable and never leads you astray! I have 3 pairs of eyeglasses and just bought my first prescribed sunglasses, I'm over the moon with this business! Love it here! read more

Angel Eyes Optical - My 3rd pair of eyeglasses I bought from Angel Eyes! - Optometrists Near Me - New York, New York

Amazing place. After having a nightmare at Cohen's Fashion Optical with multiple employees trying to bamboozle me, I went to Angel Eyes Optical instead to get new prescription lenses for my glasses. Awilda was incredibly transparent about the pricing, gave me contacts to hold me over until the glasses arrived, and was even able to get me a contacts supply at a very reasonable price the next day. I went in to the shop on Monday, dropped of my glasses and left with a few pairs of contacts to tide me over (note that at Cohen's even after paying a fitting fee, they only gave me ONE pair of daily contacts). The glasses were amazingly available Wednesday, only two days after I had dropped them off! Incredible turn around, and Awilda took the extra step to properly adjust my tricky glasses. All in all a truly wonderful experience - Awilda actually cares about her customers and provides top tier service. I will definitely be coming here for any of my optical needs and you should as well! read more

No frills is how I would describe this place. My prescription had expired and I was down to my last pair of contacts. Most places make you pay for an eyeglass exam, and then charge an additional fee for the contact lens exam. After calling several stores, I was pleasantly surprised to learn that Angel Eyes offered a contact lens exam only - making it significantly less expensive than the other places. So I made an appointment. The eye doctor was not Awilda from the reviews, but a man who never bothered to introduce himself. The exam room is in the basement, which was kind of weird. He told me I could probably get by with less strong prescription if I wanted. (What I want is for the doctor to tell me exactly what my prescription should be.) He gave me a sample pair of contacts with this new prescription and told me to try them out for a few days, then I could come back and say if I liked them, or wanted my old prescription. As soon as I left, I knew I hated the new prescription but because of my work scheduled and their office hours I wasn't able to return until the following weekend. When I went in, I found out there is no eye doctor in the office on the weekends, so I couldn't get my prescription (with my old strength) until the following Wednesday (a fact they didn't mention when I asked them what their hours were and discussed coming back on the weekend). The moral of the story is you get what you pay for. It was far less expensive than other places, but I'm not sure it was worth the hassle of having to go there three times before I could get my prescription filled. read more

I have been a customer at Angel Eyes Optical for more than a decade and absolutely love everything about this business. The owner Awilda is knowledgable, kind and very dedicated to giving her clients the best possible customer service. I recently used my last pair of contacts (and was really upset). I reached out to Angel Eyes and was able to get a temporary pair the next day with a completed order mailed to me within the week. If you want good quality at a great price with amazing service, then this is the place to go. read more

Awilda is like the eyeglass whisperer. I'm really picky especially if it's going to be something I wear on a daily basis. She listened to my concerns and picked out the perfect frames for me. I've had the for a year and I get compliments everywhere I go. She's amazing and her selection Is one of a kind like she is. The best tip I would give is to come early as she tends to get busy. She's that good. read more

Angel Eyes Optical - Awilda mixed two different frames to create the perfect glasses for me. I get compliments everywhere I go. - Optometrists Near Me - New York, New York

I was looking around for some eyewear repairs and after walking around manhattan blind for hours I came across Angel eyes. They are helpful and know their business inside out. The woman who runs the store has been in the business for over 30 years. Other stores like LensCrafters and even other small shops treat you like a one-time customer. But here I get the impression that they want to make you want to come back. The selection of glasses was good for men and women too, and I plan to buy my next pair from them. read more

Finally found frames that suit my personality!!! Thank you Awilda for taking care of me

The owner, Awilda, provides a stellar customer service. I had never used glasses before and was nervous about investing in a new pair due to looks, style, and price. Awilda took all the necessary time to show me tons of frames and help me decide, explained about all the different type of lenses. Even though other customers came in while I was there, she took the time to assuage all my doubts and concerns. Awilda never rushed me or treated me like a nuisance, even though it took a long time to sort it all out. It felt so awesome to be treated like this when purchasing your first pair of glasses, with patience, understanding, and kindness. Not only this but I look fabulous in them; now I get more attention when I wear glasses --who would've thunk it!!! I cannot recommend her enough! Whether you're getting your first pair or your next one, this is the place and person to help you with anything related to eyeglasses. read more

Let Yelp be your guide. I was considering purchasing a second pair of glasses from SEE, but after what felt to me to be obviously opportunistic "help" from a sales associate who wanted to sell me a pair of glasses that didn't fit simply so she could gain a commission, I bolted. Frustrated, I checked Yelp, looking for good opticians in my neighborhood. The reviews for Angel Eyes and Awilda were great, so I high-tailed it to her store. Awilda has great taste and is able to help you select that frames that are just right for your personality and face. I ordered my first pair of progressive lenses, which I had avoided for years after hearing horror stories about people not being happy with them. She is knowledgeable and was really careful about measuring and explaining how the lenses would be made and what I could expect. Awilda gave me a 90 day guarantee, but, more importantly, the glasses are fantastic (fashion forward, interesting and perfectly fitted) and they arrived sooner than I expected. Aside from being professional and knowledgeable, Awilda is warm and friendly. Entering her shop is like stepping into that corner cafe that you've been going to for years. She treats each customer with care and makes everyone feel like family. You may have to wait a little, but it's worth it. read more

Awilda won't rest until the customer is happy!!! I had cataract surgery and needed a new prescription. I wanted to support our local businesspeople, so I went to see Awilda at Angel Eyes Optical. She was AMAZING! I have trouble with progressives, but Awilda worked with me and made sure the fit was right. When I had a problem, she addressed it IMMEDIATELY and went out of her way to make sure I got my glasses promptly and perfectly. Awilda is in it for the long run -- she is always happy to see you and wants to make sure you are 100% satisfied -- and truly, she will not rest until everything is PERFECT for you!! Go to Angel Eyes Optical! read more

This is an excellent independent optical shop. There's a very large selection of frames, and the atmosphere is friendly, professional and homey. They were very quick with my order, which involved the replacement of regular sunglasses frames with prescription lenses. The whole process was efficient and easy. Most importantly, the price was less than HALF of what LensCrafters quoted to me right before. Yelp saved me an unnecessary $190. Highly recommended neighborhood store. read more

In December I visited a Cohen Fashion Optical store and came away unsatisfied with their products and service. Having paid $700 for two pairs of glasses, which were the alternative choice I was offered following a poor experience with the multi-focal (progressive) lenses I wanted originally (they were difficult to use and were constantly getting dirty on the inside more then the outside), I felt poorly treated, and that I should have been given better options. Two months later, after explaining my situation to a co-aworker, she referred me to her cousin, Awilda, who owns Angel Eyes Optical at 2662 Broadway and 102nd Street. I paid her a visit and explained the frustration I experienced with Cohen Fashion Optical. Awilda inspected the frames I purchased from Cohen, then patiently spent 2 hours explaining to me what was wrong (poor quality) with the progressive lenses I had purchased, and how progressive eyewear should work. She told me that it was standard policy at Angel Eyes Optical that if a customer is not happy with their purchase of progressive lenses, they have 90 days to receive a refund of the cost and are given other options to satisfy the customer's preferences. I ordered a new pair of progressive lenses from a manufacturer that Awilda recommended. I picked them up a week later and was amazed at how well these high quality progressive lenses (which cost me $660, less than my Cohen order!) worked. I left the store happy that I'd been able to find progressive lenses that worked so well for me, and felt that the $660 was well spent. They even stay clean. Thank you, Angel Eyes! Awilda has outstanding customer service skills plus she's very beautiful. I will be a loyal customer to Angel Eyes. read more

Angel Eyes Optical - Happily wearing my new progressive frames. - Optometrists Near Me - New York, New York

excellent personalized customer service every time !! Awilda , the owner, is simply fabulous. She has an impeccable sense of style and this makes the experience smoother when you are having difficulty picking out frames as she generally can recommend the perfect pair of frames to fit your face and style just by glancing at you. The time frame is usually very fast and I haven't had any issues with that, I always recieve a call as soon as my glasses/contacts are ready. She is very professional and has been in the business for many years. I live in Queens yet I travel to Angel Eyes for all my eyewear needs and it is worth it. read more

I am still waiting for my frames but I couldn't wait to review this place. I searched for an optician near me and noticed this place had a good rating so I booked an appointment and wasn't disappointed. The customer service from the doctor to the owner was amazing. The owner Awilda was very patient and amazing. People who are good at their job and passionate about it are very rare, definitely recommend going here! read more

Having dealt with the chain stores and feeling like a number, I decided to get my next pair of frames and lenses at Angel Eyes and support my local small business. It was a good decision. This is a small shop but has a very nice selection of frames for nearly any style. I was treated personally and with thoughtful attention. I picked up my glasses the other day and they're perfect! read more

Angel Eyes: When I think of Angel Eyes, I think of an Angel for the eyes. That's Awilda. Once you "get" that this person truly wants to help you "see" and "look" great; then you feel like you have a personal advocate; someone who not only wants to help you see with optimal vision while looking great at the same time, but also someone who is all of the sudden a new found friend and shopping companion. Furthermore, going to Angel Eyes is like having a doctor in the family; someone who is not only amiable, but very importantly knowledgeable, resourceful, intuitive and savvy about your eyes. Need an eye exam? Bingo. You can do that right there. I did my eyes a big favor by going into Angel Eyes. I went from having 2 "readers" superimposed on my eyes (2 pair of glasses) at the same time, to one good looking pair of new prescription glasses that all of the sudden turned my world into High Definition. (close up, and far away). It's really great to finally see; and to see in style. One short and true story: my doorman is named Peter. Makes me think of St. Peter. The other doorman is Jesus. The Super is Mark (Gospel of) There's Matthew, Michael (the ArchAngel?) It's kind of humorous. Makes me feel like I live in Heaven. And then walking down the street one fine day, right here in my neighborhood, I see Angel Eyes. I'm tellin' ya, it's a natural. If you want excellent service, and an intelligent and friendly person to deal with, go see Angel Eyes for yourself. Say hello to Awilda, you'll be glad you did!!! Joe D. read more

Came in an hour before closing and everyone kept advising me not to rush and not to worry about closing time. Wound up going back with my sister because I wanted a second opinion, but workers were all so honest about what frames suit my face and so patient as well. Must have tried on every pair in the freaking store, but so worth it because I get complimented on the frames EVERY single day. You guys are the best - I've already told my entire family to only come here from now on. :) Thanks so much for all your help! read more

What a great experience!! Awilda was so patient with my 10 year old daughter and that's always a win with me! The service was everything you need when you're unsure about what you want or need. Awilda takes her time and doesn't make you feel rushed and the late appointment accommodation was ideal for us. I really recommend this place to all that want a good experience, and those that want to support our community! read more

Let me start by admitting that I am every optician's worst nightmare: my left ear is barely there due to a birth defect (think: a small dumpling) and I have a cochlear implant (hearing aid) that generates awful feedback when something (like glasses frames) bumps into it. I am fortunate to only need reading glasses, but even those always took me ages to find, and I was pretty much reconciled with the idea that I will never have a comfortable pair. However, Awilda produced FIVE amazingly comfortable, well-fitting options for me within the first 30 seconds of my explaining of my exact issues. I was able to pick a frame I actually like the look of, and happily paid four times my intended budget - she offered a good deal too, on a very high-quality pair! It took a couple of adjustments to get the frame to fit perfectly, but she was always available and supremely accommodating, and now everything is perfect. I was completely blown away by the level of care and service I received, and would never go anywhere else for glasses again. read more
