When I bought my eyeglasses a couple years ago, I had to spend a little extra just to buy really…read morenice frames that don't easily break. I could get a bit careless when it comes to my eyewear, and I got super tired of buying new ones every now and then because I would break them by accident. The ones that I have now are virtually indestructible because they are made of really pliant plastic, but sadly, the hardware has given up on me. For some weird reason, the head on one of the screws on the leg of my glasses broke off, and I couldn't tighten it anymore. My glasses are just loosely flapping around and it would get annoying because I would have to readjust so often. I took it to the shops around Paterno Street, which is a haven for optical supplies, but nobody wanted to touch it because they said that the screw was already rusted in its groove. They gave me all sorts of negative opinions, like, they are afraid they might break the frames if they coax the screw out. Kuya Orlan, however, took one look and said, "Magagawan ng paraan yan" and proceeded to drill a hole on my eyeglass frames so that he could take the stuck screw out. He managed to ease it out, and he then fitted my eyeglasses with spanking new screws so that I could tighten them at whim. My frames were good as new! I was so happy that I didn't have to buy new frames. Thanks to Kuya Orlan and his can-do attitude, I saved a lot on my prescription eyeglasses as I was sure I was gonna have to buy a new pair.

The staff greeted me right away, no waiting around like some places. They took their time with the eye exam--super thorough, explained my slight astigmatism shift without making me feel dumb, and then helped me browse without any hard sell. Ended up picking a sleek pair from one of the newer designer lines that looked way better on me than I expected, and with their promo, the whole thing (frames + progressive lenses) came out to way less than I'd pay back home. They even threw in a free lens cleaner kit and adjusted them perfectly on the spot. Felt taken care of, not just sold to. Service was genuinely warm and professional--zero pressure, all help. Already telling friends to go here. Easily 5 stars for me.

The first thing that hits you is the huge selection that is available with all the top designers represented. Service,as is the case in Makati is excellent and prices are Sometimes 1/3 of what you would pay in North America. Specialty lenses however can take up to 10 days to complete and the sole reason Sarabia lost 1 star. We were able to pick up 2 of the newest designer frames for just about $210.00 with discounts and left very happy with the service,prices and selection.

Dr. Elizabeth has been my only optometrist and she is the best. As a kid, I feel that I've always given the wrong answer to many of the eye test questions, but she has always somehow given me the right lens prescription. I don't know how that happens. It's amazing. The eye exam used to be free but now they charge PHP 150 for the comprehensive eye exam. They usually have promos so they can waive the fee but it's not always applicable to everyone. They don't have the best selection of frames but if you're looking for Ray-Bans, they usually have the newest ones. Drop by George and try them out!

For almost a decade now, I get my reading glasses from George Optical in Megamall. The very first…read moretime I tried them out was during a sale. I checked their wide assortment of optical products on display and I tried on some of the items. To my surprise, more than five pairs perfectly fit on my face. It was the first time that I actually had a say on the kind of eyeglasses to buy. You see, when I first started wearing glasses, I had a hard time looking for the right frame size. Most optical shops offer small frames that do not fit my wider-than-usual face, which left me with no choice but to settle for rimless eyewear whose nose bridges can be adjusted so the temple shafts (aka 'arms') can comfortably reach each of my ears. I'm not really a fan of rimless reading glasses because I find them too flimsy. My latest pair is made by Oakley. I never imagined this famous brand will have something suitable enough for the width of my head. Thanks to George Optical's wide selection, I had the chance to wear a good optical brand and buy it at a sale price, too! At George Optical, everyone is polite, from the staff to the optometrists or opticians. Plus, they have the latest in eye check-up equipment to boot. Always check out their sale items as the shop never seems to run out of top quality optical goods at reduced prices.
