Very good craftsmanship and pricing. Better work than going to an optometrist. Fairly priced.

I love Happy Eyes Optical. I've been a customer since they opened 34 yrs ago. Michael always knows what frame I should have before I even know what I want. They always have the latest European styles a year ahead of everyone else. Eventhough Happy Eyes is out of my vision care network, I dont even care as I would rather go to them. Sally always makes the coverage that I have, work. Michael and Sally are the best! read more

Got a set of lenses put into a pair of metal frames I bought on eBay (I loved my old glasses so much I found the frames again). This time I added progressive lenses and they once again did a stellar job. I had gotten a pair at Target Optical, where I get my eye exams (and the doc there is stellar), but these lenses were so much better! I wouldn't hesitate to use them for any of your needs. I'm currently hunting down the frames I used for my sunglasses that are falling apart so I can have them do those next! read more

To say that this place is the best to buy eyeglasses is not enough to describe the excellence they offer. I was extremely pleased to see the huge variety of frames and lenses that they have which Costco doesn't have at all. Price are very reasonable considering the fenomenal quality of the products you can find here. And on top of that, the knowledge that Tony showed me when deciding what fit me best, is just incredible. I recommend Happy Eyes Optical 500% read more

Tony and Sally are true small business stars. Kind customer service, always with a friendly attitude. Glasses are great quality, and they take their time to make sure the fit is just right. At my optometrist's office with the 20% discount a similar pair would have cost $420. I chose these for $300. And, I like the way they do progressives at Happy Eyes, very easy to use for my eyes. read more

I love Happy Eyes Optical! I needed to find a reliable, affordable optician for my prescription sunglasses and they are it. I've been very unlucky in that I've had both pairs of my prescription RayBans stolen this year so hopefully third time lucky! Tony and Sally are wonderful, the selection and service is top notch and, as much as I hope I don't have to use them again so soon, I will definitely come back. A++++ read more

The service here was incredible, after my favorite pair of Ray Ban glasses were damaged, I was able to find this place and after reading the reviews I didn't give it a second thought. It took less than 5 mins for them to be repaired back to normal. Thank you! :) read more

Owner was very nice, I took my glasses to place a screw , he did it for free . Great customer service .

Tony is the guy! He helped me understand the process of selecting frames and what would work best for my prescription. He's very honest and does his best to ensure you get the perfect fit. I've been wearing glasses for 15+ years, and every time I get a new pair (Ray-Bans) from any optometry office, my lenses always come back very thick due to my low vision. Tony made sure my glasses were thinner than what I had previously received from Ray-Ban. Great guy! read more

Happy Eyes Optical - Eyewear & Opticians Near Me - Glendale, California

I've been going to Tony for probably 20 years for lenses, and for 15 of those years I would drive an hour to see him. He's honest, fair, and fast. I've read the negative reviews on here and I can't say that has ever been my experience, (although I can see that if you came in having a bad day, you might get back what you put out). His customer base is local, older Angelinos, and sometimes when I've gone in there, I've had to put my priorities aside and let Tony service another, very deserving customer, whose first language may not be English. Everyone has a bad day now and again, but Happy Eyes has been a solid business in the area for a very, very long time. I will be sad when Tony decides to retire, and I imagine a good portion of the local Glendale population will be sad too. read more

Called about a sunglass repair, was told to bring them in to look at the damage and see what could be done. I brought them in and was greeted by a lady, who I dont know the name of, was never introduced. She looked at my sunglasses and told me something on the glasses was not supposed to be like that assuming they are unauthentic which was a rude comment to make, authentic or not, probably none of her business. Told me she cant show me the part that needs to be repaired on the glasses and said " we cant waste any time" then proceeded to tell me to take it somewhere else. Dont come here if you want to be treated with respect and have them do a half ass job because they are in a hurry to do the work. read more

I am amazed by the service. It's an absolute 10/10. An incredibly kind owner Tony welcomed me and resolved my long-time question in regards of finding the right optometry. My temporary lenses were done super-fast and now I'm excited to get the lenses I wanted within just few days. I sincerely appreciate all the staff for their outstanding work! Highly recommend read more

Happy Eyes Optical - Perfect lenses from the best optometry in town! - Eyewear & Opticians Near Me - Glendale, California

Happy Eyes is the least expensive, most reliable and personalized place to get new glasses or upgrade or change lenses. It's a small store but with all the premium names (Ray- ban much?). Sally--who is a great stylist with frames-- is very friendly and patient. No parking lot, but worth the drive to Glendale, I promise! (And they'll ship to you at cost). read more

Do you have eyes? Do you want them to be happy? I've been coming here for 10 years. I tend to buy high-end designer frames (Moscot, Oliver People's...) and I searched high and low for the best places to get my prescription filled. Look no further than Tony at Happy Eyes. He's simply the best. Never had an issue with his lenses... ever. I suppose the signed photo of the astronaut pilot as you walk in is all the endorsement you need. Go get your eyes happy! read more

Soooo kind! Very helpful! Fixed my bent glasses in a jiffy and great conversation with Sally while I waited. Quality place, glad to have found after my other repair guy in Glendale retired! read more

Outstanding customer service! Tony went above and beyond in order to help me with all I needed. He showed me that he really knows what he was doing, and how professional he was On top of that, they have an amazing variety of frames, and lenses that really impressed me. I really recommend this place 200%; it's been the best I've ever been to! read more

I came to get my glasses hinges fixed but the doctor immediately suggested getting the frames replaced. He popped the lenses of my glasses right away without my permission and before he told me he has no frames available to replace it with. Overall, the doctor was nice but he was not reassuring. I wish he did not have to pop the lens of my glasses because now it is all dirty and dusty. read more

Met with Tony. He was kind and knew his stuff! He helped me pick out the best glasses. Then he sized them and cleaned them quickly. I love my glasses and I love the customer service even more. Definitely recommend this place. read more

Amazing quality and service! Sally helped me pick out the best frames for my face shape in 10 minutes. She was so quick and knew exactly what she was doing. My glasses were ready in just 3 days! I've had issues with the warping/swimming effect glasses can have at other places and I've been told that's just how glasses are and had to return them because they gave me headaches and I could not walk up stairs without tripping. These were by far the best quality lenses and Tony adjusted my glasses until I that swimming effect was gone. He knew exactly what to do. You cannot beat this place for quality. And to top it off, Sally and Tony are such lovely people and you feel a good energy in the room. Love love love this business and I would recommend it highly. Thank you happy eyes! read more

I couldn't ask for better service, I brought 2 Pairs of Glasses in to get New Lenses put on. Tony and Sally are so kind and on top of their Business. Since it's during the Holidays, Tony called me to let me know my Glasses would be ready in a week and sure enough I got a Text Message 5 days later. Prices are very reasonable and I know I will be back again. Communication is the Best. You won't be disappointed read more

I was looking high and low for a affordable, reliable and high quality place to fill my prescription glasses and Happy Eyes Optical did not disappoint. Upon walking in Sally was an absolute gem. She was so helpful in answering my questions and making me feel at ease. Truly places like this that take such a high standard in customer satisfaction and experience are disappearing. The lenses I received from Tony were the best quality I have ever had, the clarity, prescription and feel in my vintage frames are such perfection. Also in less then a week they had both pairs ready for me to pick up! So fast!! Such a great experience on every level and made something that I look as a hassle and put off where I will be returning and recommending to everyone in the future. read more

First and foremost, Sally and Tony are wonderful. With their expertise, they picked a beautiful pair of Kate Spade prescription glasses. Their prices are the most competitive, utmost professionalism and prompt service. I rate this establishment 5 stars, so happy I found Happy Eyes. Thank you Tony and Sally for an amazing experience :) read more

Amazing customer service from lady at desk to Tony who did my frames in no time before holidays! Lens well installed and nice scratch resistant lens! Tony and other staff are very patient with you and supportive when you choose frames. Great prices as well. read more

Happy Eyes Optical - Crystal clear progressive lens - Eyewear & Opticians Near Me - Glendale, California

If you have vintage eyeglasses, this is the place to get them filled. A lot of places won't fill vintage eyeglasses but this place will do it and they do a great job. You might have to wait a week to get them back (it's not a Lenscrafters kind of setup), but it's worth the wait and their prices are fair. I just recently found a really cute pair of cheap Ray Ban style glasses ($12) and I got them filled with some transition lenses which they were able to turn around in a day! The people who run this shop are super sweet and they will make you want to keep coming back. Great work! read more

I was in need of progressive lens glasses and my optometrist recommended Tony at Happy Eyes Optical. It's been a while since I've worn glasses but Tony took the time to get my fit right and I absolutely love them. My wife was in need of new glasses and we went back to Tony; while there are cheaper "big box" options, paying for a skilled, knowledgeable professional who stands by their work and treats you like a person as opposed to a number is well worth the money! read more

I'm just bummed they close the Glendale site. But I always had great services and price is reasonable!

Moved out to the Westside and thought I'd try out a place in Marina Del Rey. Lenses for four frames. When they started talking about $1100 I grabbed my things and left. Fortunately, Happy Eyes was open on President's Day. They sorted everything out for $450, including welding an older, broken pair. I can't say enough good things about Happy Eyes. Just wish they were in Culver City. read more

I've had numerous glasses done here I used to love them ..... I am not allowed to drive without glasses and well.... This begins my bad review . I randomly broke my glasses and needed an emergency pair of lenses cut. Happy eyes is nowhere near where I live ... so I walked to a local place and wanted to get lenses in a backup pair of glasses I had and we called happy eyes to get my prescription.... These absolute jerks held my prescription hostage wanting me to come to get the emergency lenses cut there. I couldn't drive there and at the moment maybe I didn't have money for Uber. They're nice when collecting money but this act was so disgusting to me and showed me they have a poor code of ethics complete disregard for my well-being and safety . Keep in mind they're not my optician but a place that held a prescription from my optician to do my lenses and tried to tell me they weren't allowed to give me my prescription to cut lenses elsewhere. ...I suggest you take your money elsewhere . They value profit over service . They're greedy eyes not happy eyes . read more

If you are looking for superior customer service, a large selection of quality frames and reasonable prices, Happy Eyes is the place for you. The location is a drive for me but it's worth the effort to get there as this is the best optical place I've found. The glasses I purchased recently and in past years have been light and easy to wear, something that hasn't always been the case for me as I have a prescription requiring progressive lenses. If I could give more than five stars for Happy Eyes I would certainly do so. read more

I have theee worse eye px. Serious bottle caps. Toni is the only one to get my lenses as thin as possible. I also bring him the most funkiest frames to work with and he always gets it beyond my expectations. Truly love this establishment. I live in Riverside and travel to Glendale. read more

Amazing & quick service! Broke the hinges on my classes, took them in for same day repair and they were done within the hour. AMAZING! Will definitely come back here again in the future read more

The service & staff at Happy Eyes Optical are excellent. Their service is that of a small shop and personalized to each customer. Tony had me in and out of his shop within twenty minutes after he repaired two pairs of sunglasses for me. Thanks again Tony & Sally... read more

Your vision is arguably the most important sense you have. So, you can stop looking for an optician--and for goodness' sake stay away from the online, overseas purveyors that churn out cheap, flimsy glasses based on a very limited idea of your needs--because Happy Eyes is simply the best in town. Tony is an expert, artisan craftsman of lenses; and Sally an extremely helpful, knowledgeable, and stylish ambassador. Happy Eyes has a wonderful selection of frames from which to choose, or you can do what I did and bring them vintage frames in which to place your subscription, whether for regular lenses or sunglasses. Either way you're going to be in good hands, and end up with the highest quality glasses around for prices that are more than reasonable. read more

I've been going to Sally and Tony for years. I can't recommend them enough. They have always been so helpful and attentive that I will continue to tell everyone I know how great they are. The first time I went to see them they put my old lenses in a loaner pair, who does that?! They do. I ended up buying the loaner pair as my backup:) Sally is so friendly and honest... I can always count on her to be my eyes when trying on frames-since I can't see anything without my glasses. She even knows where the best lighting is in the store if you want to take a selfie! Additionally, it's rare to find a mom & pop shop that does their grinding in house. Tony has always done an excellent job with all of my glasses. I have NEVER had a problem with anything he's done for me. I get the impression that if I did they would be just as accommodating and friendly as they always are. I will continue to recommend Happy Eyes to friends, family, and strangers. I don't know you, but I'm 100% confident in telling you that this is where you should go to get friendly, QUALITY service. read more

Worse customer service ever: After reading such great reviews, I went to Happy eyes for a quote. I was looking for a Silhouette frame and high index lenses 1.74. I asked specifically for Zeiss lenses, pricing, coatings etc...I wanted to make sure they carry those lenses ( pretty expensive but the best lenses ever in my opinion ) When the little guy ( owner? employee ?) saw me asking very technical/ specific questions, he got mad and became nervous-aggressive... He yelled at me, " we don't carry Zeiss or other brand lenses, we make our own lenses in our lab here ... they are the best... since you don't have a prescription , I can't give you any quote, don't waste my time, people like you ask for pricing and never buy..." WTH! I told him: " is it a Glendale way of doing business? You guys are so rude! are you for real?" He told me to get the F*** out...with a funny broken English ....I couldn't help it I laughed. When it comes to eyeglasses I know my stuff, probably more than the average optician... I bought glasses in Europe, USA, cheap ones, very expensive ones etc...I can tell when a seller is fishy...this guy saw that he couldn't fool me with his cheap eyeglasses ...I think he can only sell his products to inexperienced or old naive people.... I don't know why this place has 4.5 stars rating...even the incompetent kids from LensCrafters are more professional than him and won't spit in your face when you are about to spend $700... However he deserves 2 stars for saving me from a huge mistake and also for making my day with his funny English language. NB: The only way small businesses can compete with corporations is an outstanding customer service....People would pay a little more if they are treated like kings... Obviously Happy eyes doesn't get it... My prediction: this business will close down soon. read more

I am so glad I found this place! The service was awesome. I brought my own frames in and they made my glasses perfectly. I love them! The price was so much less than what I was paying before through Costco. I'm over them. I will be coming back here. The best part was it only took 3 days. I used to have to wait 2-3 weeks for my glasses. I'm very pleased. read more

Happy Eyes Optical - Eyewear & Opticians Near Me - Glendale, California

While I do not dispute that the prices are fairly cheap for prescription lenses, my major qualm lies in the fact that they are not too professional. They mentioned that the glasses would be ready on Saturday, and that they would call in advance to notify and confirm. Well, not only did they not call, I was prepared to stop by the shop to retrieve the glasses but decided to ring them instead. And of course, they would need another day. When I stopped in late Monday afternoon (and an extra day in between the time in which they were supposed to be ready), the guy behind the counter quickly rushed into the back of the shop and nervously yelled "uhhh sorry give me another five to ten minutes". They were still unfinished, despite the fact that they were to be completed on Saturday! And, I waited far longer than ten minutes in the store. Very annoying and again, unprofessional. Based on that lackluster experience, I suggest they dub themselves Sad Eyes. Whack! read more

I called Happy Eyes Optical after reading such great reviews and confirming with my optical insurance that I'm covered there. The woman who answered the phone was possibly the most rude and unprofessional person I've ever interacted with. She barked that they no longer worked with my insurance provider and when I began to contest by pointing out that they're still listed, she cut me off and said " you asked a question and I answered, now what else do you want?" Then she started to say bye, and I asked to speak to a manager, and she said she was putting me on hold but instead hung up. I called back, and she said she was the Owner! I still chose to speak to the manager, which did no good. This place doesn't know a thing about customer service and I hope this review will help to shine light on the inconsiderate nature of this particular business and business owner Do Not Waste Your Time With These Rude Rude People! read more

Tony lied to me over phone twice and hung up. Never been treated so badly!!!! I just called happy eyes to see if they had a PD measurment on file for a friend. They answered the phone and when I asked if they could look up a measurment for me the gentelman said "we don't have measurments on file!" I asked how he would know without knowing the name or looking because in order to make lenses for my friend he would have had to have the measurments and I hadn't even given his name yet?" His response is because "we are closed... you will have to call back on Monday" and he hung up. I called back because I looked on their website and saw I called during buisness hours. When he answered not five minutes later I just asked what their buisness hours were and he told me they were open 10:00 - 5:00 (i called at 11:00am). Then I asked him why he lied to me 5 mins ago and he denied ever talking to me. Both times he answered the phone he confirmed I was calling "Happy Eyes"!!! I have never been straight up lied to like that before!!!! maybe he had a bad day?? really surprised at my experiane given what my friend has always said about them and looking at the other reviews. Makes me wonder? But I would never trust my eye glasses and Rx with anyone who is ever cabable of lying like that. read more
