This may be the nicest frame shop I've ever been to What I appreciate most is their honesty. They recently saved me a significant amount of money by advising against anti-reflective coating after I mentioned my frustration with smudging. Most shops would just take the upsell, but Karen and Aimee actually care.

Okay, first of all can I just say how wonderful Aimee and Karen are? They're an absolute joy of a…read moreteam and I love spending time with them talking about anything and everything! I've been going to The Optician since 2018 and my god it has changed my life and how I've viewed glassesware! I didnt even realize that glasses needed to be adjusted to your own face and the amount of comfort it gives you over the entire day, amazing! I never feel fatigued after adjustments done to my frames with them. Simply amazing. I have about 10 pairs of glasses with them now and have brought most people I know who wear glasses into the store for a new pair or two or three of glasses and the level of care and attention to detail to everyone I bring and myself is so above and beyond with what I've gotten in the past before I found The Optician. They not only help guide what looks good on you but also listen to the comfort/needs of the client in such a nuanced way that really lets the person pick what they feel the best in! Not to mention the unbridled enthusiasm when someone finds a pair that they're so in love with is just... chef's kiss moment! Honestly can't wait to start shopping for a new pair every year :)

They know what they're doing and they get the job done right! They take their time and make sure to answer all your questions, whether it's about your vision or your business. I recently had an involved billing question and they went over everything with me very patiently. When I ran out of contacts, they gave me extras to get me through. Also, they have a great frame selection, including for women with smaller heads. This business really has it all!

Plus, the office is super cute and her staff members (AJ and Amy) are some of the most professional people I have ever met. What a great crew! I am so happy that I have found them.

The owner both had impeccable taste and helped me select the perfect eyeglasses for my face. He also made sure that every measurement was made perfectly. 2. Berkeley with Luke at Focal Point who went the extra mile to measure and ensure the prescription would come out perfectly. He stayed 30 minutes after closing as well. He had answers to any questions we had about the lenses, having them turn into sunglasses while driving (key for me). The owner also came out to check in with us and greet us and make sure we were taken care of and all our questions we answered. We couldn't be happier.

The frames I chose were white, and she custom tinted the arms a greenish color exactly how I wanted. She also ordered progressive lenses, which were spot-on the first time. Then she added a green-blue gradient tint to the lenses that complemented the frames perfectly. After wearing them in bright sun, I realized I wanted them a bit darker. She adjusted the tint at no additional cost. She really nailed it. I love the final result and highly recommend Phoenix Optical for their customer service, selection, creativity, and quality. The price was very reasonable for this level of result!

They accept VSP and have a great line of frames to accommodate the Asian nose Bridge :) You can park at the back of the building for free (secure lot) and get a sammy at Ike's next door after your visit.

Not so sure. Also, no appointments are possible on weekend. Last appt on weekdays is 5pm. Not sure if I will take time off work to view frames here. Rather go to Rockridge Optometry on the other side of the street is open until 6pm and on Saturdays.

I've been going to Moderne Eye for many years. I really don't remember when I started going there…read more When I retired I had the choice of staying on the eye care I got through work, or Kaiser. Even though I was more expensive I chose to stay on my work eye and dental insurance, so I could continue going to Moderne eye. Dr. Lin is wonderful. She's thorough and caring. I've found everyone who works there to be very helpful. For example, on my last visit, I wanted to get the same style frames as I had on my list pair of glasses, but they no longer carried them, so the man who does the fitting (I'm embarrassed to say his name has slipped my mind. Very embarrassing because he's so nice!) called the company that made the frames, and was able to order the exact same frames! I happily give Moderne Eye 5 Stars
