Her examinations are very thorough, not like you would get at a "chain" eyeglass place, and she is very helpful when picking out a frame that looks good, and fits right.

The shop is beautiful- very modern, very tidy, ever so tasteful and the selection is vast! Garrett and Max helped me and were excellent! Clearly Garrett absolutely loves what he does. Buying glasses has, for me, always been torture. I have a very thin face and really struggle finding anything small enough. And I like very plain, very subtle, very classic frames. When I explained this, these two gentlemen culled their collections and provided me with close to a dozen choices. I was flabbergasted! And once I tried them all, I still found I had several choices - any of which I would have been pleased with. They were extremely helpful, kind, polite and really funny as well, and I thoroughly enjoyed the experience. The price is not cheap, but I believe you get what you pay for. When I received a text letting me know my glasses were ready, I arrived fully anticipating several adjustments. Max got the glasses and I put them on- perfection! Not a single adjustment was necessary! And the lenses are incredible. The crispness of my vision is almost beyond description! This is a wonderful eyewear boutique! Go there! For me, this was the most pleasant experience buying glasses I have ever had! Kudos to both Garrett and Max for being just outstanding! Thank you for a wonderful experience. You two are awesome!

Michael and Rebecca at Gregory's, are THE BEST!…read more I have been purchasing frames and lenses from them for a number of years, including the previous location on Wickenden and now the newer "hotspot" on Hope Street. It's a small comfortable setting on the first floor of # 91. The shop certainly has style and pizzazz! Check out the wallpaper too! (luv it!) The display cases still house the most intriguing styles; classic, contemporary & cosmic. (my opinion solely!) See for yourselves ! I own six very unique frames including a pair of exquisite sunglasses. Yes, my smile brightens and my eyes light up, as frame style compliments are frequently given to me wherever I go. What's not to love???

I LOVE Gregory's Optical - they are beyond AWESOME! I stopped in today (early-mid January 2025) to…read morepick up my brand new Alain Mikli sunnies. They're gorgeous, stylish, handcrafted and totally rockin' my world. Gregory's Optical highly personalized service is bar none - no question about it. These people are professional, knowledgable, friendly, efficient, expedient, low-key (no hard selling tactics here - ever), and, a complete pleasure to deal with. I've patronized their business spanning decades. I first saw them on Thayer Street on the East Side of Providence abutting Brown University. I followed them to Wickenden Street in Foxpoint and now to their newest location at 91 Hope Street. Aside from their outstanding highly personalized client services, I've remained with Gregory's Optical because of their vast selection of excellent quality upscale global brands with outstanding competitive pricing. For a sublime boutique shopping experience for fine prescription eyewear, please visit opticians extraordinaire Michael (proprietor) and Rebecca - who continue the professional experienced traditions and practices started by Michael's Russian-American parents decades ago. While I dearly miss Gregory and Dora, I fully trust Michael and Rebecca to fulfill all my optician services and prescription eyewear needs. They ROCK!!

I've been to this a few times for supplies as a stained glass artist. I've never been terribly…read moreimpressed, but it's the closest to me. I prefer Whittemore Durgin (in Rockland) or Absolute Glass (in Methuen), Most recently, I came in for brass tubing and shopped scrap glass, only to find the place is being taken over by a rather aggressive little man. Glass scrap that was usually $3 a pound was suddenly $5 a pound (which is a ridiculous price). I purchased some brass tubing at $1 a piece. Two weeks later, I went back for more brass tubing (thinking it was hard to find) and the price had gone up! I purchase what I could afford with cash, since they now suddenly took cash only, and drove away. Worried that I wouldn't be able to find tubing again (and that the new guy would raise the price AGAIN), I stopped at a gas station to get more cash and go back for more tubing. When the angry little man saw me come back in, he refused to sell me any more. He said "I need to price it out, first." When I said "but you just sold it to me for $xx a piece ten minutes ago!" Nope. He wouldn't sell it. Said he was trying to figure out the shop and pricing and wouldn't sell it until Monday. If you need to "figure out the pricing"--shouldn't you be closed until you do? Shouldn't you sell the items you sold just minutes ago for the same price? I doesn't really matter--because a quick phone call in the car, and I learned that Whittemore Durgin (a REAL stained glass shop) has the exact same pieces for 50 cents each. Bye, Stained Crap Emporium. Never going back there again!j

There are other offices in this building as well. There is a parking lot in front of the building, but I didn't see any reserved spots for Eyediology Vision. Instead, I parked on one of the side streets. We were welcomed by friendly staff during check-in. There is an area with water, soda, and coffee for patients. The office is very modern, clean, and organized. The technician did some tests and then I met Dr. Kriti Bhagat. Dr. Bhagat is the owner and founder of Eyediology Vision. She was very professional and friendly. My husband purchased glasses with Eyediology Vision and the staff were very helpful in the process. They really care about you feeling comfortable with the glasses. I am looking forward to my next annual visit with Dr. Kriti Bhagat.

She thought there was an issue, so the office set me up with Dr. Kriti Bhagat, OD, FAAO. Eyediology Vision is only about 8 months old, and on the East Side in the Bliss building. It is difficult to park; there are only 2 spaces in the parking lot for visitors. There is on street parking if you get lucky enough to find a spot, or a pay lot not far from the building. The office itself is gorgeous! Black and white finishes, and the equipment is state of the art. The staff were very personable and friendly. Dr. Bhagat is just as friendly, took her time with me, and explained everything she was doing in layman terms, and that made my visit a great one. She specializes in my type of lenses- the reason I am grateful my doctor referred me here. If you are looking for an eye doctor, this new office is the place to try!

I think everyone has a different style in frames. Dr.Potaznik is kind of snappy and rude, couldn't give me the right prescription for my contacts or glasses, the staff kept on insisting that I was wrong and the script was right. After spending close to $500 without any money back, I went to Visionworks and my first visit they gave me the correct prescription and were super nice, and NO I don't need readers! With the correct prescription I see just fine. What a mess! I do not recommend!

I've had the same prescription for 10+ years and expressed apprehension about changing it but was basically told "try it and see what happens."
