What a find from the frames themselves to the folks who work there. I came in with a very pricey pair of wooden frames that I needed new lenses for. Enter Nate and his super-smart, super-cool self. He knew exactly what had happened to my lenses (chlorine exposure of all things!! Who freaking knew? Umm...Nate did). So he proceeds to agree to work on my wooden frames that NO ONE ELSE will even try to do because wood breaks so easily. A week later (that's like a month ahead of normal optician's schedules), they're ready and they're NOT BROKEN and TOTALLY PERFECT. He even sits me down and tells me what to expect when wearing this new lens type. It was a Masterclass in Customer Service and Optician-ology. I can't decide if I like Nate or my frames/lenses better. Both are awesome! read more

Eyes on Fremont - Optometrists Near Me - Seattle, Washington

Great service. More stores in US should be like this. This is the norm in Asia- same day glasses pick up for in house lab. Custom clip ons. Great funky frames at a good price. Will definitely be back! read more

Extremely kind staff and very fast service, thank you all so much for your help, will recommend to everyone.

My son and I walked into Eyes on Fremont half an hour before closing on a Saturday afternoon. His glasses had broken mid arm for the third time. We had super glued them together the previous two breaks but this time it was unfixable. We had ordered new glasses, but his insurance only uses one lab and it takes eight weeks. Eyes on Fremont quickly replaced the broken arm with a much higher quality piece. A little background, my 11-year-old son suddenly started losing his vision a little over a year ago and he needs his bifocals to have any clear vision at all. We had spoken to many places the first few times they broke and insurance only provides one pair of glasses a year. Eyes on Fremont was the only place willing to help without even knowing what a massive difference it would make for my son. Also, their store is just a great place to hang out with cool things to see, great music and nice people. Thank you Eyes on Fremont! read more

The staff are super-friendly, the selection of glasses is excellent, the optometrist is really helpful, and I'm super happy with the glasses I got. (I'd decided to try a progressive lens but later decided I didn't like the progressive-lens situation, and they swapped out the lenses for a single-vision pair no problem at no cost - just dropped off my glasses for about an hour and they were ready for pickup right away). Really really love this place - so glad they're in town! read more

These folks are a neighborhood gem! Another fantastic experience at Eyes on Fremont. My prescription had just changed across distance and reading glasses and the frames to update were a mix of Ebay vintage finds and reading glasses (ancient) from Eyes on Fremont (my reading prescription doesn't update often). They got them done in a week, and threw in fitting adjustment for my current (backup)) pair as well. read more

Yea everyone here seriously are the best! Patient and very laidback and helpful. I come here and buy multiple frames off the service alone. Go see Nathan trust me ! read more

Where do I begin? I will have to start with their mission. They are about disrupting the greedy and monopolizing glasses brands. They focus on local and small business glasses creators. The space is chic and has a super chill vibe. I almost wanted to order a beer (disclaimer: no alcohol served at this establishment) simply because of the friendly staff. I had no appointment and walked in on a whim when the screw of my glasses fell out on the treadmill The guy offered to help, fixed the glasses and cleaned them... free of charge. I think I will check them out next time I need lenses simply because of their amazing customer service. They also live up to their mission about being diverse and focusing on community. There was a lot of diversity in the staff working which, as a person of color, felt like it was truly a space for everyone. read more

Eyes on Fremont - Fixed glasses! - Optometrists Near Me - Seattle, Washington

If I could give a negative review on the eyecare I received at Eyes on Fremont, I would. I have worn glasses for 40+ years and I have never had such a negative experience at an eye doctor. I spent $800 on a pair of glasses from Eyes on Fremont. I was also provided a contact lens prescription as well where I ordered the lenses online. I received the lenses and could not see out of a single pair!. Obviously there was a problem with the prescription. But, Eyes on Fremont told me it's likely that all 12 pair were defective. I was told by Eyes on Fremont that the only thing I could do is come in for a new exam. I do not live locally. I am now out $500 and Eyes on Fremont refuses to take any responsibility. I hope that reading this prevents someone from falling into the same circumstances I did. Do not get your eyes examined here. They will take zero responsibility for incorrect prescriptions. read more

Coolest eye glass place I've ever been to! Real artsy, great variety of glasses to choose from. The manager was able to get me in right away and have glasses ready to be picked up in a couple of days. Most places I've talked to take at least a week or 2. read more

I have gotten multiple pairs of glasses from them over the years. Funky frames, happy people, great customer service.

Went in recently to get lenses fit into new frames I purchased second-hand and they were so speedy with their service! Their prices were fair in my opinion and their customer service was really great and warm! I dropped off my frames and they were ready to be picked them up only an hour later!! And they even gave me a fitting to ensure the frames sat on my face nicely. I will definitely be back in the future for future glasses/eye needs! read more

I really love this place, a great selection of frames on all ends of the spectrum. they make picking out frames fun and not feel like a terrible chore and devastating decision if you make a "wrong" choice. they wouldn't let that happen! :) read more

I came in for a repair my eyeglasses, thinking it would be a minor fix. Turns out I needed completely new frames. Not only did they replace my frame with a new one, they did it free of charge! Excellent staff and service, would definitely come back and recommend this place read more

Great selection of glass frames and very helpful staff. I especially appreciated their advice to be very candid about the fit and lenses after purchase. "We will get it right but need to hear from you to make it so!!" Highly recommend read more

My husband and I have been coming to Eyes on Fremont for quite a few years. Today we stopped in to look at new frames and I was reminded why I drive from another suburb across Seattle. Not only do they have a great selection of frames, the costumer service is beyond. I left feeling really good about my new glasses and supporting a small business! read more

Visiting Seattle this week and my glasses broke. Went to this place and they said they could fix the hinge within 20 minutes. They did it all free of charge- thank you so much!! read more

glasses put on face by 'optician'. Done. unable to read with them. prescription never measured for trifocal. return and redone. trifocal still not useable i was treated like i was stupid. never to return again read more

I can't speak highly of Eyes on Fremont. Nate, the owner and Christina assisted me with frame selections which were unique and one of a kind. They provided me with exceptional customer service and I felt like I was a part of their extended family. I would highly recommend shopping here and supporting this amazing business. read more

Love this place! Had a great experience this week buying new frames. Kesha was excellent and helped me choose a look that I never would have discovered or considered on my own, and I'm thrilled. The frames needed a fitting adjustment the day after purchase, and they were great about this too. Highly recommended! read more

Great selection and amazing customer service!! I love the glasses I have from here. My husband just got a pair that didn't quite work at first and both Nate and Nate were beyond helpful with trying adjustments and then actually swapping frames. They even upgraded the lenses. All for no extra charge. We felt educated and supported throughout the process. Thank you! read more

I used to have the great experience others did. FWIW, I've gotten my glasses here for over a decade, only going somewhere else a few times. The major reason was the EonF workers: they were always really nice, and from the moment you walked in, someone came and devoted themselves to finding just the right frames for you--they had a genuine talent for it, and they knew their stock. But returning from 2 years in PA, I find things have shifted. Now you're given a box and told to go and pick out your own, someone will check up on you in a bit (Covid routine, maybe?). And the customer service isn't the same. I went on a Saturday, and it was busy, as always (never affected the service gotten before). The person who helped me was nice but seemed surprised when I asked for recommendations and about the out-of-site stock. I ended up choosing a pair, mostly thanks to my husband's input, but ended up taking them back. After 4 adjustments, they still hurt and gave me headaches. (I was also unlucky with the person I had to interact with on 2 of those adjustments: they were impatient and gave off vibes of "don't be a whiny bitch.") I took time off to go on a weekday morning--it was quieter. Things went better. The gentleman at the counter was sympathetic and kind, took the glasses back, and gave me store credit . And although I was once again given a box, I went ahead and told the woman who came to check on me that I didn't like any of them (which was true), probably because I had no idea what looked good (also true). She looked a little surprised but asked several really pertinent questions, then whisked off to bring me 4-5 pairs to try. All of them looked pretty good, and one pair I liked and got. But unfortunately, when I went to go pick them up, I got that same not-so-nice person. They just handed them over, didn't check the fit. (Any time I've EVER gotten glasses--including the pair I had to return--someone has sat down and gone through the usual drill of checking nose and earpieces, etc.) When I asked this person about it, I got the the same "whiny bitch" vibes and was told that they "looked" fine. Not cool. Even whiny bitches shouldn't have to make their own judgment call on whether the glasses fit as they should. But by that time, I'd had it. I'll have my eye doc check them for me. And I won't be going back to Eyes on Fremont. Too hit-or-miss. My recommendation: If you go here, go on a weekday morning and don't hesitate to ask for personal assistance. And if you get someone unpleasant, be brave and ask for someone else. read more

What else can I say that hasn't been said already? We've been coming here for a really, really long time under different ownerships and the service, selection, price points and attention to customer service all get 5 stars. Shout out to Kesha who is always super friendly, helpful and remembers you by name. read more

Love eyes on Fremont! I always find glasses shopping to be similar to jeans or swimsuit shopping-- frustrating and embarrassing. My experience here was like a 180- super fun, easy, got something I loved (quickly) and felt taken care of. Can't recommend enough! read more

I recently visited Eyes on Fremont with a new prescription, to update lenses in two pairs of glasses. Unfortunately, I didn't know the prescription I provided was the most inaccurate I've ever received. After picking up my glasses and realizing they were unusable, I was able to get a new, correct prescription. Eyes on Fremont graciously honored their 90 day warranty, and my new lenses are perfect. Thanks Eyes on Fremont! read more

I can not recommend Eyes on Fremont enough. I have traveled all over the greater Seattle area looking for a pair of glasses that will fit my low-bridge nose. I had fittings at 5+ different shops over the last few months - had a particularly problematic experience at one (they said they only fit "European noses" which I do not have). So, I was THRILLED to find Eyes on Fremont. It was a wonderful experience from start to finish. Incredible selection and unbeatable customer service and fitting. Kind, personalized to my interests and style. They really listened to me and that is rare. From the time I walked in the door to the time I had my new glasses in hand was about an hour. An hour! Easy, efficient, empathetic. Unique glasses and the most reasonably priced place in Seattle. VISIT EYES ON FREMONT! Support this local business read more

Huge kudos for Eyes on Fremont. No wonder this place is so busy! I returned two years after getting glasses because someone sat on them. No questions asked, they immediately found a matching set and replaced the two arms for free. I didn't have to prove they were from their store - it was obvious because of the unique designs they offer. I went back the next day to get the arms adjusted, and again immediate service and no charge. Yay! Thank you. See you for my next pair of glasses. And the next... read more

I LOVE Eyes on Fremont. They're local, will help you find actual frames that fit your face, will give you an HONEST opinion, and put up with the pickiest and ficklest customers (me). They. Are. Awesome. You can find something super unique or something basic but beautiful. They also will hear what you are looking for, and pull SO many options from the back. I recommend them 100%. They don't take insurance but they will give you a note for your insurance and I've had no issues making claims. They are a true small business that believe in providing quality unique eyewear. I, uh, have "several" pairs of glasses from them. I took a break from purchasing new eyewear during the pandemic, but they still welcomed me by name when I came back in for a new pair 2 years later. I'm clearly obsessed. read more

The best selection of glasses of any glasses shop I've been to in my entire life. My friend referred me to this place and I couldn't be happier with my new glasses. I am going to switch my optometrist over to the folks that work out of this space also. I am sure I'll be back for my next pair of glasses/sunglasses. read more

Awesome place. Consistent great customer service. People are very knowledgeable. Lots of cool frames.

My glasses arrived in less than 5 working days! I went in to get them fitted and in the past I would get them fitted and just accepted the semi poor fit-I am asian and I don't have a strong bridge and glasses are sometimes a nightmare to fit. Any place that I went to in the past usually bend them a little here and little there and then they do't really fit...Eyes on Fremont is different. Jennifer is the eye glass fit whisperer...After trying the traditional bending...she traded out the nose pads and like magic they fit beautifully. Thanks again :) read more

This is hard to write. The showroom people there are really polite and helpful, and the frames there are great. Out of the four glasses stores I went to, I liked the frames here the most and I ended up buying frames and lenses from Eyes on Fremont. The downside was that their sales person was deceptive around the insurance payback. To stay "independent" and keep costs down, they don't file any insurance for you. That is fine. I support their independence and their choice as a business not to deal with the paperwork. I had read through my own insurance plan so I felt prepared to do that myself (spoiler alert: I had clearly missed something). This is my first ever time buying prescription glasses), and the EOF employee told me that several things would be covered by my insurance, VSP. The lenses were stock, they would be covered. Basic coating? covered (he put it on the order without my asking for it, but assured me it was usually covered so not to worry when I brought it up). He even filled out the VSP insurance form for me to mail in when I got home, which was helpful. Clearly he understands my insurance plan! Long story endless, after buying one of their cheapest frames and stock lenses, I was left holding a $150 bill after VSP refused to cover most of the purchase because Eyes on Fremont is "out of network". I disputed it, but lost. There is a big difference between "this is mostly covered" and "you will be paying for most of this". If that extra $150 was the price to pay for helping you "fight evil", I may still have bought them. They are amazing glasses! It was just a kick in the gut when I got that reimbursement check and found out that what you sold me was not at all covered in the way you said it would be. read more

I came in for an annual eye exam and had a great experience. The staff was friendly, efficient, and thorough. The doctor helped me understand an issue with my eyes and determine a path forward. They have a great selection of contacts and glasses. read more

I will never go anywhere else for glasses! We just had the best experience finding new frames. Tony helped us with our selection and never made us feel rushed or pressured. He took into consideration the frames we picked out on the wall, then went into the back and found other complementary frames. We both feel confident that he made good choices for us. Can't wait to get our new glasses! Thanks, Tony, for making the process enjoyable! You're the best! read more

This place is wonderful. I broke my eye glasses Saturday night. Took them back to where I bought them years ago. These fine people fixed them, on the spot, no appointment, no wait, 5 minutes tops, for FREE. I am ecstatic! Was thinking I might be buying new glasses today. Nope! Sure, this is not a budget dispensary for eye glasses. Mine were not cheap. But with their lifetime guarantees, and comprehensive services, I have no regrets paying for the quality they provide. Plus I rarely buy new glasses and they are essentially a permanent accessory on my face. read more

Eyes on Fremont - Happy customer - Optometrists Near Me - Seattle, Washington

What a wonderful eye glasses experience. Nate and Jennifer went above and beyond in helping me pick out frames. I ended up purchasing two and my eyes glasses lenses were made in 30 minutes. Wow! Thank you again for such great customer service and patient care. I'll be returning and highly recommend supporting local. Thank you again. Bo! read more

Adjusted my sunglasses for no charge! Great service and great people, a review is the least I could do! Support community businesses!

Go see Drew. That is all you need to know. I took my boyfriend to Eyes on Fremont to get a pair of new frames yesterday. It was only later that I realized just how lucky we were. Drew is made of magic when it comes to matching the right frame to the right face/person. I was so excited that I couldn't fall asleep last night, I was too amped up thinking about the FOUR pairs of glasses Drew helped us find. Three pairs for boyfriend (so affordable!) and then surprise surprise I had to get new sunglasses. Drew said "You would look good in those" and I didn't believe him. I put them on and looked in the mirror and saw the best version of myself in sunglasses I have ever seen. In. My. Life. Every single pair we decided on was a Drew Pick. I should've just sent my boyfriend alone, he didn't need me! (Of course I needed those sunglasses, but...) If you think you need a friend to accompany you to be sure you look good in your glasses, you don't! You don't need any friends! All you need is Drew. He is a peach, knows exactly what he is doing, and has that energy and enthusiasm where you can tell it matters just as much to him as it does to you that you look great and that you love your glasses. Thanks to Drew, now I have the best-looking boyfriend ever and my self-esteem got a huge boost to boot! I can't wait to pick them up! I am officially hooked. Go see Drew!!!! read more

I've been coming here for ten years. I've bought three pairs of glasses from them and they've never let me down. I always get prompt and useful help from the employees and I really trust their opinions on which glasses look good on me. I recently came here for an eye exam and new frames since my toddler had broken my previous pair of glasses. Not only did I pick out a great new pair of glasses, thanks to Nate's strong opinion that they looked great on me (they did), but he was able to fix my old pair, so now I have two pairs of glasses that I love. I will continue coming here for eye exams and new frames. read more

Excellent experience finding terrific frames here. Cristy found some really fun frames and gave feedback when asked. COVID measures felt very safe and yet didn't adversely affect the very positive experience. Prices very good and fair for frames. I came from out of town to get frames to take home for my next pair of glasses. I will be coming back next time I need frames! read more
