I like this shop even though I bought my glasses from a different Apollo location in Schwabing. The…read morestaff are very helpful and they have fixed my glasses on a few occasions for free. They do have a repair service and a wide selection of frames. Their service is usually pretty quick and the prices are reasonable. This is my choice for reasonably priced glasses in Munich.

When I first arrived in Germany, I was warned that prices of prescription glasses were quite high…read more That turned out to be the case the first time I bought them in Munich. This time however, I found a place that is almost as inexpensive as other places I have bought glasses in, around the world :-)) Ok, if you are looking for brand name glasses the choices here are limited but, if you are looking for glasses and have a tight budget, this is the place for you. The service here is good, staff very helpful and the choices are also not so bad. They tested me to make sure my prescription had not changed, help me select the frame and, I received two pairs for the price of one. What more can you ask for ? To top it off, I received an SMS when my glasses were ready and, all I had to do was go and pick it up. They also offer you a fitting service in case the glasses don't fit perfectly and you can bring them back for the same, upto six months later. Good customer service, reasonable prices and for €210 I walked away with two prescription glasses and they fit well and I am delighted :-) One last thing I discovered, "Brilleversicherung". Yes, there is an insurance for everything in this country lol...for €30-60 you are covered for two years for loss of your glasses or accidental damage etc, and, you can buy this at time of purchase in the shop ;-))

Not satisfied with the outcome of my contacts. At least the trial pair and initial test was free…read more However they were relatively friendly and patient with my German. Some staff speaks English. When I went back to try another type of contacts they said they would not retest me unless it was in the morning...
