I have a very difficult prescription, and it's always been a challenge for providers to get my lenses right. Amanda and Steve at Eye Candy were incredible. They were confident their Zeiss lab -- in Kentucky or Germany -- could handle it, and they were absolutely right. I chose a pair of fantastic blue frames that really complement my face and style. For years my lenses have been thick, but Eye Candy was able to use 1.74 glass lenses that are the thinnest I've ever had. They took a bit longer since they were made in Germany, but the first-time quality was perfect. I'm over the moon with my new glasses. Outstanding service, expertise, and results. Highly recommend Eye Candy! read more

What an excellent business! Their design sense is terrific: the smart, engaged staff are really good at suggesting styles - shopping is easy and fun. In both locations, East and West side, they stock many excellent, interesting frames we're unlikely to find anywhere else in Cleveland. Their knowledge of optics and attention to fit are first-rate. Dr. Eric writes a more accurate prescription than my eye doctor. They work with Zeiss for top quality lenses and coatings. I've bought my glasses at Eye Candy for many years and wouldn't go anywhere else. They'll remember you and your personal style even after just one exploratory visit. Highly recommend! read more

Everything was great until I got the bill. Eyecandy wouldn't give me the sales price because I had insurance thay marked my glasses up 300.00 dollars making my use of insurance almost useless. And then they lied and said it was the insurance company fault. So I ran home the insurance company and they said they could have given me the sales price if they wanted and that it was the stores policy. I'll never shop there again. read more

I've bought 3 pairs of glasses at this store. I always have a great experience. Outstanding selection of frames. Customer service second to none. I will buy my glasses no where else but here! read more

Always a good experience at Eye Candy! Fast, reliable service and great honest feedback on selections!

Run, do not walk, to Eye Candy in Westlake, OH. They have beautiful and unique frames, their own lab right on the premises and outstanding customer service. It's normally hard for me to find eyeglass frames that I really like but at Eye Candy I found several. Go get new glasses! read more

I used to be very near-sighted, and I can't wear contacts any more. So, glasses. I like to have glasses that complement my outfits. My prescription changes rather quickly, too, or did, from cataracts. About six (?) years ago, I complained to a friend that I couldn't find pretty or stylish glasses. I wanted red or turquoise, and cat-eye if possible. The mall optical stores sold boring colors and unflattering shapes--the upper part of the frame slanting downward so I always had a hang-dog look. My friend pointed me to Eye Candy, and boy was I surprised when I walked through that door! YES to colorful lenses! YES to cat-eye shapes (which for me are much more flattering)! YES to a sense of fun and originality! I have never looked back. Glamour! Style! Personality! An element of playfulness, too! Eye Candy's prices for frames and prescription lenses were a little BELOW the shopping mall glasses store's. And these are for Paris-designed frames. I don't know how they do it. I guess they aren't paying shopping mall rent. (They also gave me a candy bar, gratis. Oh, and pretty eye-glass cases. The shopping mall stores don't even give you a case, grrrr.) I am a spendthrift, I know, but I always buy two pairs, one in each color that I customarily wear. And Eye Candy had MULTIPLE options for my favorite colors--orange, red, turquoise, blue, multi. The first time I got a new prescription, I was conservative and just got red--my sister's advice--black is boring and unflattering. I know black is supposed to be "neutral," but I've been color-analyzed and was warned against black, which makes my complexion look dull and sallow. And, YES, the lady who helped me look knew all about color analysis (unlike the shopping mall clerks). The next time, I had gotten a little extra money, so I got two pairs--orange and aqua. I switched them off depending on my mood and wardrobe choices. A third visit, some years later, and I got orange, sapphire, and a playful multicolor. For all moods. Then I got cataract surgery. Oh, well, no more Eye Candy. But I got looking at myself in the mirror and I had these bags under my eyes, and I can't wear eye makeup because it irritates my eyes. I thought, well, sometimes people (John Lennon?) wear glasses as a fashion accessory. So I went back and asked if they could put blank lenses in my old frames. Yes, they could! But then I also thought, why not get transition lenses so they color in sunlight. This cost, of course, but I loved my glasses. And oh, I found this crazy pair with Crayola-colored fragments, perfect for an orange dress I plan to wear to a very special event. Eye Candy is just Cleveland based. The owner orders frames directly from Paris, Italy, etc. They periodically have trunk shows, little parties to show off their new stuff. And very personalized service. The lady who helped me with my recent choices was stylishly dressed in kitten-heels and an adorable short skirt. She "got" me immediately--color, style, level of craziness (they have some sedate and some intensely wild selections). The owner is similarly intuitive about one's personal style--and level of wildness. As I was leaving, a guy came in with his wife. They selected orange frames for him. Totally suited him, very masculine-looking guy. Highly, highly recommended. read more

I had a very thorough eye exam at Eye Candy Optical. The Doctor took time to explain what he was testing, and what my results meant for me. When it was time to pick out a pair of frames Steve was a huge help in finding the perfect pair-ones that I probably wouldn't have picked out but LOVED once I tried them on! They came in quickly, and the price was very reasonable!! I highly recommend Eye Candy Optical in Westlake! read more

Life is too short to get boring glasses! Go see Steve at Eye Candy. He will give you expert advice on what looks good (& what doesn't). They carry frames that are stylish and fun. You will feel terrific when you leave with your new pair! read more

Awesome store with awesome staff. Had a great experience with both the doctor and floor associates. Highly recommend!

I lost my prescription sunglasses a week before I am to travel to CA. I chose Eye Candy Optical because they carry a brand of frames ( S A L T ) that I like. Francine helped me and I couldn't have been more pleased. She not only checked with the lab each day on the progress of the sunglasses but she also sent daily messages letting me know the progress and likelihood of getting them in time for my trip. Francine was profession, knowledgeable, kind and had a great demeanor. Thank you for your excellent follow up Francine, you are an asset to Eye Candy ! read more

Amanda and Steve were VERY helpful in assisting my husband and I in selecting new progressive glasses. Our previous experience with progressives (a few years ago in another state) had left us disappointed and unsatisfied. At Eye Candy, they listened to our concerns and helped us select beautiful frames and really assisted us on what to expect with our progressive lenses. Very satisfied with their help and great service. Have adjusted well to our new glasses! read more

Maybe you're looking for glasses that define you. Maybe you need help picking something out. Eye candy optical has the most stylish frames and the best service. I have purchased my glasses here twice now. Both times, they almost immediately picked out the perfect frames for me. When I try on frames at Eye Candy I have no trouble saying "Yes" instead of "I guess." Do your face a favor and stop by Eye Candy Optical. They'll get you looking good and seeing straight. read more

I've been a customer for a few years now. Appreciate their great service and unique selection of glasses. Always pleased when I get new glasses here. Would highly recommend. read more

Love Eye Candy! They have by far the best selection of glasses in the Cleveland area and are totally committed to finding you the best frames for your face. The owner Steve especially will not stop until you find something you look amazing and unique in. I used to think wearing glasses was a nuisance but now they're just an extension of my style! read more

After three purchases of Eye Candy glasses over the years, I have come to the end of my loyalty to this store. I truly love the glasses I had before, but this last pair was a dud. They wouldn't stay on my nose. I went back to the store twice for adjustments and after each time they felt better, but it didn't last. I developed neck pain, but didn't attribute it to the glasses until after a number of months of clues. My husband told me how I always seem to search for the sweet spot of my bifocal lens. Oh, and I didn't have pain in my neck when on vacation without them (the pillows were better, possibly?). After rehab for the pain it returns after reading for a while. Darn it, the glasses have to be the reason. So I talked to the nicest clerk, Francine , and she told me to come back within 4 days and she would talk to Steve, the owner. Well, I was mistaken about the warranty. My lens would have to be damaged with scratches within the first year in order to get new lens. I am out of lucky. I am writing this with my chin out to find the sweet spot in the lens. Here it comes again... the pain in my neck makes me want to be a pain in the neck. Instead I am writing this review to tell possible clients to be careful ordering lens from Eye Candy labs. I took for granted that Eye Candy would have my back. I took for granted that very expensive eye glasses with lens created by Eye Candy would be perfect. My neck is telling me otherwise. read more

Steve and his crew are all classy, but not cheesy, friendly but not pushy, and the shop itself is absolutely spotless, pristine in fact; with a great selection of frames and styles. You will not be disappointed. Plus, for me, and this is huge...they local & independent and we need to support such creativity and excellence in our community or we'll be left dining at boring chain restaurants and visiting lifeless optical shops! Stay well, fight the good fight and definitely check out Eye Candy. read more

Can't say enough about this place. Had a great experience with the doctor and optician. Definitely an amazing establishment.

I love the special individual attention and help. You don't get much customer service anymore. Marina will make sure the glasses you try on are right for your face shape. An outstanding business to support. Try them out you won't be disappointed!!!! read more

The service is amazing, professional and delightful. The inventory constantly changes and is so fun and up to date. I have gotten 4 pairs of beautiful glasses from Eye Candy so far for myself and 2 kids. Their trunk shows are dangerous, you must go !! Found a pair of Ditas my college age daughter could not live without, quality and style were beautiful. If only I was not so heavily reliant on my contact lenses I would have picked off a pair as well ! The service is great, they are honest, fun and sincerely take the time to make sure your happy with your selection. Love the people and the product, will not go anywhere else. Thank you, Gail Barber read more

You will not find these frames anywhere else. I was a professional designer, architect, and landscape architect. Did my career in LA and San Francisco. Even there, could not find a selection like Eye Candy! read more

Just happened in while visiting Crocker Park on a recent trip to Cleveland. I had been looking for glasses to fill a recently received prescription. It was Nirvana. Had a wide selection of unique and stylish frames unseen anywhere else I'd been. Steve was attentive and has a great eye for the perfect frames to fit your face & personality. He was so persuasive that my husband also bought a pair and he wasn't he even looking. I'm thinking we'll be back on our next visit to Cleveland. Thanks Steve and Johnny! read more

Best glasses place in the CLE area! They have a wide range of glasses that will pretty much fit any personality type. Their selection is fantastic. I personally like to wake up excited to wear my glasses for the day and they pretty much NAIL IT. I'm a student and I was able to find a pair I could afford. Staff is wonderful, nice, and accommodating. Had to adjust my lenses about a week and a half after purchase and had absolutely no problems. Oh, also REALLY enjoyed their all-inclusive prices. Highly recommend! read more

From the moment you enter this place you feel at home. From the wonderful doctor to the manager to the rest of the staff Eye Candy is the place for your eye care. The frames are so unique and beautiful, you won't have a problem finding the ones that looks great on you. Give Eye Candy a try, you will love this place. read more

I have been a customer for many years and many pairs of glasses. I will not shop for glasses anywhere else! They have, by far, the best selection of unique, quality frames I have ever seen. There lenses are top quality as is their service. They give you honest opinions about the way the frames look and fit your face, and truly want you to look and feel your best. They are always friendly, professional, knowledgeable, and helpful. Top notch!! read more

I had the pleasure of saying this was the best retail eye glass store I have ever been to. I went to many before and I never had this phenomenal experience. I knew I needed new glasses since I was going two years with my prior pair and say this store as I was walking with my boyfriend shopping around crocker park. I wanted to check it out and that was the best decision I've ever made. I will no longer go to any other store for my next pair but this place. Fast forward to a year which is now, I noticed a crack in the middle of my glasses but thought nothing of it untill a couple days later I went to clean them in my car and they broke directly in half. I couldn't believe it, my favorite pair of glasses I have every owned broke. it wasn't that I abused them, I just couldn't believe my eyes. literally as I was stranded in my car with out being able to see. I knew I couldn't ever get a new pair to replace them without having to pay for it so I walked in the next day and they made the impossible possible. I couldn't believe how nice and accepting they were. They both knew that the particular brand i had was sturdy and well made, they never had a customer experience this. I was heartbroken because these were the one pair I never felt like I was wearing glasses and it was the best pair I owed as I said earlier. End of my story, they were generous and kind enough to replace them with no cost which I couldn't really fathom as I walked in prepared to buy another pair. I am very grateful and appreciative of their service!! I will be back for my next pair without a doubt. read more

I'm impressed with the quality of my new glasses. My vision is extremely important to me. Optician John Michnay did a fabulous job of helping me select frames that met my exact needs, taking the time to listen to every relevant bit of information I could give him to narrow down to the perfect glasses for me. He is very thorough and meticulous, and extremely knowledgeable about what he sells. Not only that, he is very dedicated to customer satisfaction, and cares deeply about making sure that you have received the best service and are completely satisfied. read more

It was time for new glasses, and I happened to notice an eyewear shop at The Promenade in Westlake! As soon as I walked in the door, I was blown away by their amazing selection! Casey and Steve went right to work helping me find the right pair. They feature the latest in eyewear fashions, and even showed me eyewear that I normally would have never expected to complement my total look! They are consummate professionals, very friendly, and made the usually bland chore of selecting glasses FUN! I even got my glasses (progressive lenses) in less than a week! I get compliments on them all the time! It's also incredibly satisfying to know that I am the only one with this cool pair of 'Face A Face' glasses from France! While there, be sure to check out the Vegas themed restroom as well! This place is fun and amazing! read more

I love going to eye candy to get my glasses! They make me feel so confident and comfortable trying on a bunch of different pairs that I would never think would look good on me, but they are professionals at bringing out the best in you! They have classy and eyes striking glasses that will be your new favorite accessory. All around great experience, great place, great people and great glasses. read more

So this one time when I was not drunk ... i know this already has a boring start but lets move on .. so this one time i was sober, in a moment of clarity i had deduced my incessant headaches were due to staring at my monitor all day. I know right, epiphany right there. So I call around a few optical stores or whatever the right term for eyeglasses stores are and the gentleman that picked up the phone was the most pleasant and fun to talk to. So I drive on over and I talk to Steve who was just as fabulous in person as he was on the phone. He patiently watches me try on just about every pair in the store.. or maybe all of them I mean I lost track after a while. Finally he helps me narrow my choices down to three and another 30 minutes of going back and forth i finally am down to 2. He is still just as clam and just as patient as I take one pair on and off and repeat this ad nausem until I finally settle on a pair from Tom Ford. So lets recap - they have an extensive selection of glasses and they have the superhuman patience. They also will steer you away from clearly bad choices and make the process of indecision a fun event. I have got so many compliments on my glasses I cannot thank them enough. As I was going back and forth and then repeating it till the sun came down (literally till sunset!) Steve said - your face is our billboard so I am going to do everything i can to help you make the right choice - and boy did he deliver. I would not go anywhere else at this point simply because - why improve perfection. Maybe they should carry wine. I know right, now that is a great idea ! Jokes aside, they are one of the nicest opticians i have been to. They are professional, know their craft, help you make an informed opinion, are incredibly patient and are my go to opticians. Definitely will be back.. cuz i mean who only has one pair of glasses ? ! read more

Thank you Eye Candy Optical for a fun and easy eyeglass purchase. You took your time and helped me find the right pair to match my personality! Will definitely be back! :) read more

What an awesome place! Amazing selection of frames, great service and rapid turnaround time. Couldn't be happier with the entire experience!

What an amazing selection. And probably more important, what a great staff. So attentive and they listened to understand exactly what I was looking for - so rare! They really knew what they were talking about and zeroed in immediately on the frames that made me look great. Cannot wait to wear my new glasses. read more

Best optical store in Cleveland by far. Excellent brands and customer service. I finally found a brand that suites me:Mykita. Thank you!
