As someone who uses reading glasses constantly and needs to keep them in many places, I go through many pairs. I wandered into Glasses Ltd to see if they could repair my old but favorite glasses. Not only did Tal do a great job with the repair, but he also showed me a wonderful selection of high quality, but affordable reading glasses which wouldn't break so easily. I'm planning to return soon with another repair and to buy one of the pairs I was shown. read more

Very nice shop. Bought glasses here several times. Owner was very helpful. I'd def go back. Great selections and service above and beyond. Nice eyeglass cases too! read more

Last year I bought a pair of heart shaped sunglasses just for fun for my trip to Cancun. While I thought it was silly all of my friends and my mom loved the sunglasses on me and didn't want me wearing other sunglasses. So imagine everyone's disappointment when the nosepiece fell off and the sunglasses became too big for my face! I randomly found them today and decided to take them with me on my Saturday morning errands to see if anyone could fix it. After going to another store that definitely judged me for heart shaped sunglasses, I came here. Tal immediately fixed the nosepiece and made sure it fit my face - and at no charge! That was the best part because honestly these were $6 sunglasses from Amazon...not exactly worth a pricey fix. Anyway I'm super excited about my fixed glasses and the great service! Thanks, Tal! read more

Needed to get a new screw for my sunglasses since none of the ones in my glasses-repair kit didn't work. Stopped in after work and he told me to come back in 15 minutes so I browsed Bloomingdales and when I came back he had fixed them! Very pleasant experience and convenient location. read more

I simply cannot say enough positive comments regarding my experience at Glasses, ltd. on Michigan Avenue. Tal has superior customer service skills and was able to efficiently help me through the prescription glasses process. The selection in the store is phenomenal - and I am told it rotates frequently. Tom Ford, Chanel, etc. - you will find exactly what you want in this fashion-forward frame boutique. I can't wait to return and grab those TF's I will continue to dream about! read more

Glasses Ltd had exceeded my expectations in every way imaginable. Their eye wear selection is extensive and the staff is knowledgeable and friendly but not too pushy. I purchased sunglasses a few days before leaving for Florida and they even rushed the order and personally delivered them to me! read more

Jackie was so helpful the today. Was able to fix a pair of prescription sun glasses I had. She was professional and courteous. I will for sure be back. read more

Great customer service even when I wasn't a paying customer. I called in advance to see if they can help me switch my prescription sunglasses lenses out and put in the original lenses that came with it. The store manager- Tal was very accommodating and made me feel so welcomed when I arrived at the store. While he was working on my sunglasses, I explored their collection of frames and I have to say, I'm impressed. Check them out and ask for Tal; you'll not be disappointed with his hospitality and knowledge. Oh also, they carry Montblanc prescription frames! read more

Simply the best in the game. I'm an avid enthusiast and collector of eyewear. I've bought at the best boutiques from LA to NYC to Miami and glasses ltd. in Chicago has the best service and selection in the country. Class act. Family owned and operated. Above and Beyond read more

Went to the store to have a nose pad on my glasses replaced. I thought that I would have to leave them at the store, have them fixed, and return to pick them up later. However, Tal, the manager, took a look at my glasses, fixed the pad and even adjusted the frame all within minutes. The glasses fit and feel great. Will definitely return there when I need to purchaser my next set of frames. read more

Unparalleled customer service. Fixed my Gucci sunglasses, explained what they fixed and advised me on a better brand to buy in the future. Always always always a pleasure to visit! read more

Glasses Ltd on Michigan Ave is by far my favorite glasses shop. I don't live close-oak park and colorado-but prefer to go there because of their perfect (for me) selection and a superb rare customer service about which myths are formed. They absolutely go out of their way to get the best glasses and the best fit. When you walk out you're happy. Rereading what i just wrote, i'm dismayed it sounds so reviewerly. How do i sum this up...? I guess,... I wish everywhere was like this. Tal and Jackie are a tour de force team. Is a million star rating too much? read more

I was visiting chicgao and lost my contact lens. I was super worried about it because I didn't carry my glasses with me. I called in Glasses Ltd and talked to Jackie. She is the sweetest girl you will ever come accross. she is super friendly and she gave me a pair of contacts for free.. yes Free. I never believed angles exist until I met Jackie. Thank you very much. read more

Tal is absolutely incredible and extremely knowledgeable about all things eyewear - there's a reason he's been in business for 40+ years. He fixed a pair of Roka sunglasses for me that I (as well as other repair shops) thought was unfixable. He took extra time and effort to repair the broken arm and he has now earned a lifetime customer! Thank you again, Tal! read more

Very excellent service along with a great selection of premium eyeglass brands and services. I'm traditionally a ray ban type guy, but his selection of Tom Ford fit my style and price point. Glasses, Ltd is also in a prime location right down the street from my work. read more

After four visits to the glasses/lens store where I originally purchased my new glasses, they were still unable to fit the frames properly. On a whim, I googled glasses fitting and found this place. I am SO glad I did. Jackie took the time to explain to me why the frames were making my ears sore and adjusted them perfectly. I am so grateful. While I was there, she helped me find a different pair of glasses that is more suitable to my face shape while still supporting my rather unusual prescription. Tal also provided extensive knowledge about lenses and frames, information helpful to me to understand how to support my condition. For anyone who is serious about his/her vision, this is the place to go. read more

Very nice glass shop with unbeatable price high end glasses. Very nice and friendly, would recommended to anyone.

I'm in town visiting for the holidays and we were downtown seeing the sights and going to museums. All of a sudden my eye started bothering me and I realized my contact was scratched. Googled location of nearest glasses store and Glasses, ltd came up..went there and asked if they could help.. Tal, the store manager was soooo nice and accommodating..helped me right away..I recommend the store wholeheartedly! located in the Bloomingdale's building..900 Michigan Ave. read more

I've been a loyal customer of Glasses Ltd since the first time I visited their store five years ago. I exclusively shop here for two reasons. One, the store's owner, Zach, as well as all his employees, have treated me like family. No store could possibly exceed in quality the service they provide. Period. Second, they have a damn solid selection of prescription frames and sunglasses. What more could you want from a glasses store?! read more

After doing my homework of searching for just that right pair of glasses at six different Optical stores(which were very good) I settled on Glasses,ltd. The glasses I found or should I say Tal found were exactly what I was looking for. I've had them for a week and have received so many compliments from total strangers. The time spent searching for that perfect pair was well worth the time & effort. Make sure you check them out when you are shopping around. B read more

Great service, friendly staff! Great selection! Tal Landau helped us and we would give him 6 stars if we could! great prices, great service! ************** read more

I had purchased sunglasses from a different location and found amazing reviews about this place on yelp. I brought in my sunglasses and they fixed them no problem for free! Absolutely loved the efficiency and customer service. Will return for future appointments read more

Tal, the manager, was very friendly and fixed my glasses in a timely fashion. He then explained the best way to keep my glasses in the best condition possible, as they are relatively old. I will definitely be going back for anything glasses related in the future. read more

Tal helped me and he is a sweetheart. I had major issues with my Prada sunglasses which seemed to be irreparable and irreplaceable. Now to be totally candid, they are by no means perfect since the repair, a little wonky, BUT MUCH better than they were, and because of this, he didn't charge me! I was more than happy to pay something but he clearly understood that even though he fixed them, they were never going to be back to normal. The fact that I can still wear them with my hair up, as I can wedge the wonk so to speak, is better than nothing. Love this guy. Would highly recommend! read more

I stopped by to get my Burberry prescription glasses fixed. One little piece at the hinge had fell off and it needed it to stabilize the entire frame on my face when I was wearing them. The manager I think he was, took a look at them and was not sure if he could fix them right away, so he was very resourceful and used rubber bands to place in that spot where the hinge needed it and they are now fixed. Otherwise I would have to pay around $150 to replace the little piece, between ordering it and shipping plus the time. On top of that it was all free. I'm very grateful for the help, was not expecting it. read more

Stopped in to see if they could adjust some glasses I had accidentally stepped on Even tho I did not buy them there Very gracious and fixed perfectly at no charge!! Will certainly get my future business! read more

Incredible service at Glasses Ltd.- they are always so nice and adjust glasses for customers!!! Great selection of high end frames.

I had purchased glasses 3 years ago, and accidentally broke them, I called in and asked what I could do to get a new pair/contacts! They told me to come on in and hooked me up with a fresh new frame and contacts for the time being!!! Tal Landau is the guy to see if you need great customer service and quality eye ware!!! LOVE LOVE LOVE GLASSES LTD! read more

I am a born and raised hillbilly that recently moved into the Old Town area and work on Michigan avenue. The underwire on my glasses broke. A pair of glasses I got 4 years ago from a Wal-mart in NC. I was bummed because I figured I was buying new glasses. I call these folks and spoke with Jackie. I have to admit I was apprehensive about a place on Michigan avenue fixing my glasses. I went there and Jackie was able to fix them while I waited. Obviously customer service is a top concern for them and they deliver. Jackie, showed me a really nice pair of glasses to replace my current one when I am ready. I will definitely be going there for all my eye needs. read more

We have been going to Oak Street Glasses Ldt for more almost two decates sometimes also going to the 900 Michigan location (in Bloomingdales). Both branches have great models, both modern and vintage frames. Great craftsmanship and service. Competitive prices and pricing. I'd give the 900 Michigan Ave a slight edge in service. Tal Landau is super helpful and courteous. read more

Best customer service I've had the pleasure of partaking in...everything written about Tal in previously complimentary reviews is correct. Brought in a pair of vintage sunglasses for lens change. Other shops would not take it and encouraged me to buy a new pair. Tal took it in stride, gave a history lesson on the specific brand, and sent it out. Got them back in record time and good as new. Super. read more

I have gone to Glasses Ltd for readers and repairs to my sunglasses and they are always incredibly friendly and professional. Even when they're busy with other people, they'll acknowledge your presence and try and get to you quickly. I've never had to come back once the repair work is done because it's always done well and very timely. There have even been a couple of repairs that were done where I was pleasantly surprised Tai, the manager, didn't charge me. I would not go anywhere else for readers, repairs, and an eye exam when that time comes. read more

Walked into their 900 Shops location to adjust a pair of Mykita glasses purchased from them for the first time ever. Jackie proceeded to break the temple, didn't apologize and didn't follow up when she said she would on replacements. Long story short after dealing with Tal Landau and Zach Winitz the owner, Glasses Ltd. never managed getting appropriate replacements, in fact, they called me in to pick up a pair of replacement temples this past Saturday which they didn't even match to the correct one from my glasses in their possession before calling. I called Mykita myself today and learned its not even possible to match the temples from 2010 from Germany. Zach Winitz blamed Mykita for the wrong temples Saturday instead of his obvious incompetent staff. Tal Landau went line by line through everything my wife and I ever purchased through Glasses Ltd., several thousands of dollars and told me that they made no money on us. I bought a pair of Lunor eyeglasses from Yuri@Blink Optical in Lake Forest and was treated with respect and this is now my go to eyeglass boutique. read more

I went here for a repair and ended up with new $800 glasses. From day one they weren't right. Jeff promised he would fit them upon delivery but his idea of "fit" is "can you lean over and shake your head without them falling off?" He adjusted them by cutting off the arm ends with a wire cutter and then they were so short they cut into skin behind my ears. Then he ordered new arms and told me he couldn't return them because the frame was being discontinued. When I went in to have them put on he wanted to charge me another $175 and when I said no, he said he would just return them. He promises things he can't deliver and doesn't know the first thing about comfortable fit. I've been rearing glasses for years and have never more than one adjustment because the optician actually knew what he/she was doing. I went back probably four times. The fit was so painful I ended up going to Lenscrafters to have them adjusted so I could actually wear them without getting a major headache. They are cute frames but really, their selection is nothing special. Very hard sell and all kinds of promises and "deals" that are designed to get you to buy glasses but none of the "great customer service" they promise. Oh, sorry. I forgot the free box of lens cleaners valued at $15 that I was given for absolutely nothing! I don't mind paying for cute comfortable glasses but there are plenty of great optical shops on the Mag Mile whom I'm sure can do better. They sure can't do any worse! read more

while i have yet to buy a pair of glasses from glasses ltd, this is the first place i would go if i needed frames or sunglasses. i have come here several times now to have my beloved Coach aviators fixed when screws have come out. they always handle the repairs quickly and call me right away when they are done (and once they did it for me on the spot). even better, they aren't concerned with charging their customers for little things like screws and the cost of repair. that's the sign of a business that truly cares about their customers - ALWAYS a good thing. also, one time the guy who works here complimented me on my adorable sparkly flats. so all in all, i say yes to glasses ltd! read more

On the last day of our Chicago vacation, a screw in my my Jimmy Choo sunglasses became so loose the glasses frame came apart. I found Glasses, ltd. in the mall, and Tal screwed it back in quickly and I was on my way. The glasses in the store looked beautiful. read more
