I originally bought glasses from a local competitor, and the frames kept snapping--five pairs in total, most within days. They even let me switch to different frames at no cost, but those snapped the next day as well. The lenses also weren't built correctly for my Rx, and I kept thinking the issue was me. The staff there were kind, but after so many failed attempts, I had to walk away. A second opinion confirmed that the lenses were poorly shaped, causing stress fractures in every frame. I went to Lens Save Express, where I've shopped in the past, and shared my experience. I bought an Armani frame for the lenses, but it snapped the next day too. Instead of brushing it off, they investigated thoroughly. Their lens specialist confirmed the lenses were the real problem and offered to replace them for free. The new glasses--progressive lenses with beautiful frames--fit perfectly, feel great to wear, and have held up without any issues. The customer service, patience, and kindness I received at Lens Save were outstanding. I highly recommend them and am truly grateful for the care they took to make everything right.

Countless times I have walked past Optiko, glancing from a distance. Without much attention I've…read morepassed it off as a fancy technology retailer, car dealership, and swarvoski store. Every detail in this store is illuminated. Even the floor is glittery. Backwalls and displays are lit with blue and purple lights. Too rich for my blood, I thought. It wasn't until I was actually looking for an optical place, I walked into Optiko. Browsing around, I found a good selection of brand name eyewear. They carry Chrome Hearts (which is pretty ballin since there's less than a handful of places that do). They don't carry the usual selection of brands other optical places carry. An honorable mention, is the amount of unique designer peices they stock. I can't say many places carry the wood frame Ray Bans or the Cat eye Prada frames. Simply put, most stores won't carry them for fear of them not being able to sell. What does this mean for Calgary shoppers? Limited selection, limited choices and boring standard products. The eclectic, the unique and fashionable live here. Optiko breaks the mold for the safe and standard. Kudos for having the best selectiof of upscale designer products and ever friendly staff.

My husband bought a pair of glasses and he thought he found the perfect pair at Ollie Quinn. The floor model fit perfectly, snug in all the right place. When he picked up the glasses he ordered, they couldn't adjust it to fit anything like the floor model. To get the arms to be snug, the glasses were bent and the look was ruined. If it was straightened out to look good, the arms were so loose, the glasses would slip off. He complained and the manager approved to have them redone at a higher index which was suppose to be thinner lenses that would help keep the original shape and feel. My husband had originally ordered progressives, but he didn't like the distortion so he requested they not do it on the new pair. He picked up the new pair and I asked about the difference in price since he cancelled the progressive which adds about $100. I was told it was offset by the cost of the higher index on these new lenses. Low and behold, they still could not adjust it correctly. And all they would refund was $75 for the frame. They kept $325 for all this hassle! So hope you aren't picky about your glasses cause they will take your money. By the way, their progressive technology is the older one, everything they do is probably older technology and that's why they cost less then other big name stores. Beware.

They carry affordable options, like Vogue, and designer frames, like D&G. Their selection wasn't too impressive, they had mostly black and brown frames. They charge $80 for an eye exam. Lenses start around $95 and up. I would return to Pearle Vision for cheap options when it comes to eye wear. The service was friendly. It wouldn't be my first recommendation though.

This isn't your average spot, located near the 17th Ave and 4th St intersection, they offer a wide range of examinations and glasses options. They even carry the very cool and forward thinking brands ECO and Modo. Now you may be thinking, why would I bother going to the optometrist, I don't need glasses! My first question to you would be, are you sure, when did you last get your eyes examined? You are supposed to go every two years at the least. Now I am not a frequent glasses wearer, I have a pair for night time driving, but just like going to the dentist or the doctor, I get my regular check ups. My family members are frequent glasses wearers, so I have been visiting optometrists regularly for almost 30 years, and Dr Ross is by far the most courteous, understanding, and knowledgeable one I have come across. He took the time to go over each test and why they were doing them as well as explained the results with me. He didn't talk down to me, and he answered all my questions patiently until I understood it completely. I highly recommend visiting Eye Spy Optometry, whether for an exam or a new pair of sunglasses, you won't be disappointed!
