Took my mom today to Kevin. So friendly, helpful and knew exactly what would look good on her. She got readers and distance glasses made on the spot. Highly recommend them. Oh and the selections are amazing! read more

Kevin is truly the best. I've gotten glasses from Kaiser, Costco, Walmart but these are by far the ones I love most. I'm waiting for my third pair from here now. It's close to where I live and Kevin makes everything such a breeze, you can even turn your receipt into your insurance company to get it covered. He's very knowledgeable and has so many different frames and color options. You can even bring your own frames in. read more

Everything about Kevin and his Opital Divide shop is 5-star. The collection of glasses is wide-ranging, contemporary, and stylish. My little diva granddaughter was stylin' and profilin' in many beautiful frames. Kevin is knowledgeable, scientific, and as down-to-earth as a New York egg cream. Due to illness, my vision has been bad for two years. Kevin knew exactly what I needed, even if I had a few things wrong about lens materials and ABBE numbers. I live in Maryland, but I don't plan to have any lenses made for glasses in the future unless Kevin makes them in Martinez. He puts superior craftsmanship into the lenses, along with a very fair price, leading to outstanding value that will last. Lastly, the fact that folks drop in to hang out says everything about him and his commitment to his community. read more

I've done business here at least four or five times so far and the service and the quality are outstanding. I have never had problems with the lenses which makes me so happy. I can't say enough high praises for him. Just thought I'd share this. read more

Well, what do you do when you have scratched your cornea, can't wear contacts for a couple weeks and your backup glasses are missing? You google for same day glasses . Unlike South Korea where you can have this done everywhere, it's hard to find in your backyard, or so I thought. Right in Downtown Martinez (Moving soon to the CVS center off Hwy 4), we were met by the owner Kevin who made the experience easy. Within 1 hour the glasses were picked from the nice selection, made and fitted. $199 for single vision prescription glasses made right on the premises. I really can't say enough about the great service, quick service and reasonable prices. We did not go with his least expensive options. And ask about lenses for your favorite frames you already have. read more

I had a great experience at Optical Divide in Martinez! I got my prescription from Dr. Ensor in Lafayette, who recommended this shop when I needed new glasses *fast* -- and Kevin absolutely delivered. Friendly, efficient, and clearly knows his stuff. Highly recommend! read more

Kevin is top tier. Not only is he patient and kind, but he is extremely knowledgeable. He spent a lot of time explaining how to interpret a prescription to me (I was curious). He also spent a lot of time troubleshooting my prescriptions and trying to sharpshoot precisely why my (valid) prescriptions were not working for me. He did not give up (when most definitely would have). Thanks to him, I walked out with a pair of glasses that worked as I hoped! He is efficient (same day service), pricing is great, wide selection of frames for any budget, AND he has a good eye for what suits you and your face. Thank you! read more

Kevin is great at helping you decide how to fit frames, and can use yours or has a nice selection to choose from that are not expensive. He also is the only optician who can make your glasses same-day, often while you wait ! Kevin can also tint your glasses lens to make great computer glasses, or sunglasses- multiple colors to choose from - all while-u-wait!. I go to Optical Divide for all my glasses needs ! Go today ! read more

Great service, great value, great glasses. I've used Optical Divide when they were in their old location downtown Martinez, and now they're in a new location at 586 Center Ave in the CVS/Nob Hill shopping center. The store has a wide selection of frames, or as I did this time, you can reuse your old frames and just get new lenses. Kevin is very knowledgeable and will help figure out the best option for you. My wife and I went in for 4 pairs of glasses, and 3 were ready within 30 minutes! If you need glasses, this is the place to go! Thank you Kevin! read more

Amazing experience at optical divide getting new glasses. Prices are very affordable and compare to everywhere else. Being able to get your glasses the same day is insane! Kevin was super kind and helpful, will definitely recommend to others and be back if need be! read more

This place has been a lifesaver for our family! The gentleman is so kind and knowledgeable and always makes sure the glasses are a perfect fit. We have also had to come in to have them repaired a few times and the same day service and warranty have been a life saver! Cute selection for kids- thank you so much! read more

Pricing is very, very affordable. Kevin provides professional vision coaching for sore eyes to keep it simple. We agreed my old frames needed preciosity. These new progressive lenses and anti reflective with coating support my eyes no matter how long it's been since I've been fortunate enough to afford it. You can expect nothing less than top quality and less time spent waiting. Main Street has several great restaurants and shops open to the public. This one is for Kevin because he deserves so much respect for letting go of his bicycle because he was seriously injured in an accident. He was there for me because I have been injured twice but also never entirely recovered from it.-- Most excellent customer service so you pay for what you get- Indeed his commitment was pertinent and professional. I am greatly satisfied with my overall results. Kevin has very high standards and business ethics. The company offers great prices! I strolled near Starbucks before discovering this new specs spot! Talking to Kevin and parking my bicycle inside his shop window impacted my made it safer for me to get my purse easier.- Based on the solar exposure classified as harm reduction to my eyes from competitive swimming ‍ contributes to a stress condition and in addition to providing reliable progressive lenses given by the sense for both you and your eyes despite harm suffered to get full protection instead. read more

Optical Divide - Nice new place in downtown Martinez. Popped in for a set of glasses and they made them in like 20 minutes! - Eyewear & Opticians Near Me - Martinez, California

I typically wear contact lenses, but had to switch to glasses due to an eye infection. The 2 pair of glasses that I had on hand were old and the prescription in them was not current causing me to get a headache trying to use them. I needed new glasses fast! I called up Optical Divide and the owner coordinated with my eye doctor to get my current prescription. I brought down my old glasses and he replaced the lenses in them while I waited in less than half an hour! They are perfect... one pair for distance and one pair for computer work. The service was fast and friendly... and all right here in Martinez! read more

Showed up on opening day and I was greeted by the friendly owners. They were still getting things set up but could not have been nicer. The assortment of frames is fantastic! And the fact they can turn them around so quickly is awesome. read more

So refreshing to find excellent customer service in this day and age! My new puppy ate my glasses while I slept on the couch . I looked on Yelp for reviews and I saw great reviews for the Optical Divide in Martinez. I sent a message and Kevin answered right away. I walked in the next day to a very warm welcome and he acknowledges everyone that walks in. He tried one or two things that weren't going to work . But he came up with several options! I had bought Gucci frames years ago and he was able to put new lenses in them in 2 days!!! So happy with his service, knowledge and follow through. The building is so bright and cheerful also ! read more

I have been looking for someone who can put prescription lens' in frames that I already owned and Optical Divide did an AMAZING job!! I have a very high prescription and was hoping that I'd be able to find someone who could do them really well and he really delivered! I'm so excited at how good my glasses came out and can't wait to take more of my frames there! They were VERY affordable and had a very quick turnaround time! The customer service was also exceptional and he adjusted the frames until they fit me perfectly and also mentioned that If I needed any further adjustments that I can just stop in. Highly recommend!! read more

This place is Amazing!! Kevin, the owner is Awesome!! I haven't been able to wear sunglasses for a few years now and have been wanting to get a couple of my favorites turned into prescription but was hesitant about taking them into a optical place to be sent out. All work is done on site and very quickly!! I wear progressive (bifocals) and had my sunglasses in 2 days!!!! I highly recommend going to see Kevin for all your prescription needs!! I have already taken 3 pairs of glasses to have the lense replaced and after your first pair you get a discount from then on! You definitely have a customer for life! read more

If all stores provided customer service like Optical Divide the world would be a better place. My wife and I spent a good deal of money with another large fancy eyeglass store only to have one problem after another. Optical Divide took the time to repair some issues we had with several pair of glasses. They even ended up replacing several lenses that were done wrong by the other store. I'd only wish we found out about this store before hand. Certainly any further eye glass needs will be done here. They could not have been any nicer or pleasant to work with. Thanks for your help. read more

Highly recommended! i was reluctant to go to the eyeglass shop because a couple of years ago another local shop told me they couldn't/wouldn't help me because i didn't purchase my glasses there. The gentleman here helped me straight off, and i'm gratefully wearing my fixed glasses right now! read more

Was walking through downtown Martinez and I stumbled upon optical divide. They had a great selection of frames and I was told that they could get me a pair the same day. I decided to get a new pair and was in fact able to pick them up later that afternoon which was very exciting. The customer service was exceptional and I would highly recommend stopping in if you are in need of a new pair of glasses. read more

I needed new glasses, and a friend told me about this new optical store in downtown Martinez. I went to check it out and I couldn't be happier with my new glasses! They have a huge selection of frames and since I always have a hard time picking out new frames, the owners helped me choose the right ones. They were very patient, professional, and personable. Also, the prices can't be beat. Very reasonably priced compared to some other glasses I've gotten in the past. I actually ended up getting two pairs and I love them both! I'll definitely be back. So glad I found this place! read more
