    No frills- this is predominantly an online store with actually a brick and mortar store in San Gabriel, CA. What I like about this is the price and quality for the frames and lenses. I buy multiples and dont feel guilty if I sit on them or lose them (yes it happens quite often - even with sunglasses). They dont have name brand designer yet- but the variety of generic frames make it very affordable to accessorize your glasses with the type of look you are trying to achieve. Would highly recommend them!

    Bose frame with prescription photochromic lenses.   Thank you optical king!

    Came in for transition lense for my Bose frames, turn around time was less than a week. Dropped them off Thursday ready for pick up on Wednesday just in time for 4th of July weekend! Very nice and friendly staff. My new goto for lense replacements. Thank you!

    Kevin, the owner of this place was super kind and generous with helpful advice when choosing frames and what type of lenses to get.

And I decided to get their super cool black framed small aviator shape Chrome Hearts glasses instead :) Hugo is fantastic with his patient help and politeness the whole time to me. Love that. Highly recommend Hugo and Rowena who are my fav people here. Haha :) I'm just not a fan of the manager here who is too strict to me for no reason when every customer is different. Whatever payment beef that the manager here had in the past due to other customers in the ways they paid you, does not reflect on me. I have only arrived recently after those past certain customers to only give my money to you here, manager. I don't appreciate you being quite appallingly strict to me with your so called new policy on how customers need to/should pay you/your company here. How I can't Zelle your company to pay because I can't be driving out here when I'm coming from the Manhattan Beach area. Unless you want to pay for my gas, manager. Tbh, my Honorable Dad warned me to not shop from here because he can actually prior prophecy read the cons of everything here. But I love only 2 people here who have given me best customer services asap I called and walked in. But when it comes to the way I'm forced to pay by the manager is not only ridiculous to me but also a huge disrespect to me. Especially being that they have no idea who I Royally am. Fact is.. I am Royally from both my parents of The famous Tribes of Levi and Judah which is connected to my famous KJV Bible ancestors from Enoch, Noah, Shem, Abraham, Ezekiel, King David, King Solomon, King David's son Nathan, Nathan's daughter Mary, and of course, The One and Only Creator of the whole universe and beyond Messiah Savior Lord God Jesus. I'm also Royally from 5 famous China Dynasties: Li, Shang, Zhou, Song, and Ming. I'm also Royally from The Great King Taksin of Thailand. And I'm also from ALL Kings/Ramas 1-10 currently of Thailand. Therefore, manager here should know their place of highest respect and honor with Me. And apparently manager here does not. Do better, much better, manager. You need to learn to have WAY BETTER respect for people of my very special stature and very honorable special lineage. You apparently failed to do that, manager.

    I'm an aging guy, on a limited budget, who went from decades of scraping by with non-prescription…read morereaders to finally accepting that I needed four pairs of specialized prescription glasses--for reading, for sitting in front of computers for hours on end, and for distance both indoors and outdoors (sunglasses). After resisting wearing glasses for so long, and, let's face it, being a little vain, I wasn't a good candidate for progressives despite the practical and economic considerations. Trying to wrap my head around an expanding universe of frames and lenses in every shape and price range after being so resistant for so long was overwhelming. I'd gone to all the usual suspect shops in Old Town Pasadena, where parking is always a challenge, as is finding a knowledgeable and caring employee working on an hourly wage, without coming close to making a purchase. One day I was driving down Colorado Boulevard, stopped at a light, when I spied Brighter Optical and its spacious, free parking lot. I'd never heard of the shop, but thought why not, I might as well give it a shot. I was warmly greeted by owner Raymond Yu himself. I immediately felt comfortable in his small but well-stocked shop. Then I was immersed in a lengthy consultation with someone who had unlimited patience for my long list of questions, who spoke in soothing tones that put me even more at ease. It was so much better talking to an owner with a lifetime of experience and the ability to negotiate multiple purchases than an hourly employee with no real stake in the outcome. Not only did Raymond know everything there was to know about frames and lenses, he knew how to break it all down into easily digestible concepts that I could grasp even though English is just one of the languages he speaks fluently. Better yet, he filtered all that knowledge into personalized recommendations which rang so true I had no qualms about pulling the trigger on the sale. When the dust settled, Brighter Optical had a customer for life, while I came away with four pairs of flattering glasses for every purpose that exceeded the most fervent hope I had for my budget--and a new friend.

I originally had a…read morepair of Prada prescription glasses made here back in 2011, and they had been one of my favorite pairs for years--until recently when another optometry accidentally scratched the lens. After 15 years, I needed to rediscover my old prescription, and Keith went far above and beyond to help me do that. Instead of relying only on standard eye chart readings, he took the time to carefully measure my prescription using a machine, then placed it into a trial frame so I could experience it firsthand. He even stepped outside with me so I could test the lenses in real-world conditions, which made a huge difference in confirming accuracy and comfort. What stood out just as much as the technical care was Keith's attitude throughout the entire process. He was incredibly friendly, patient, and kind--never rushed, never frustrated, and genuinely committed to getting everything right. This level of personalized, thoughtful service is rare. I wholeheartedly recommend SunOptics and Keith to anyone looking for exceptional eye care and a truly customer-focused experience.

What was really impressive was that he fabricated polarized lenses that look just like the original glasses would've looked and did them in less than a half an hour while I waited! I will definitely be coming back here for lens replacements on any other glasses in our family.
