My wife recently got new frames and lenses here, and the experience was excellent from start to finish. During her final fitting, Amanda noticed my old Persol sunglasses that I've had for at least 15 years and generously offered to clean and buff them for me while we were there. I honestly expected them to look "a little better" -- instead, they came back looking almost brand new. She took the time to really care for them, and wouldn't even charge me for it. That level of customer service is rare these days. Amanda went above and beyond, and it completely changed my impression of what a great optical shop experience can be. Highly recommend. read more

I just had the best experience with Jesse at VEO Optics in DT Petaluma. The personalized and attentive service by every member of this family owned and operated biz was outstanding! I love my new Maui Jim prescription sunglasses!! Thank you Jesse, Melani, Amanda and the whole team! read more

This shop is so cute and I wanted so many pairs of sunglasses! I came in over the weekend around dinnertime and Ryan P. was so kind and helpful. He showed me some sunglasses, went over how sunglasses should fit around the face, and adjusted a pair of Maui Jim sunglasses for me. I really appreciated how much he validated my sunglasses purchase (which I didn't purchase from his shop) and was also so welcoming if I had any issues with my sunglasses in the future. Totally loved his hospitality and I'll be coming back again the next time I'm in DT Petaluma. Thanks so much, Ryan! read more

Veo is fantastic. First, you are drawn in by how gorgeous and unique the space is, a reimagined gorgeous bank turned into one of the most beautiful inviting spaces to try on eyeglasses, get some lavender satchels for your home or unique finds like a real leather cap for all seasons and an ever lasting pencil not to mention the best pair of eye glasses I have ever and the entire team is welcoming, knowledgeable and very supportive especially Jesse who truly cares about every one being happy with their glasses. I had on one occasion lost my glasses and they sent me a new pair of glasses promptly as well. Loved the music and their dog in the vault also. read more

This former bank building is now quite spectacular. The location is very stylish and supplied with amazing furniture, gifts and optical wear. Jason is very knowledgable and taught me quite a bit about selecting eye wear. He painstakingly fitted me out and the glasses arrived in Palm Desert as promised. Something wasn't quite right and Amanda(phone) graciously walked me through the easy return process. The glasses arrived here after a little correction. The service/experience was impeccable. Highly recommended. read more

Veo Optics is very, very high quality. Not only do they have a long history, but they have an on-site lab and the willingness to attract talented employees. In a world where most stores are just shipping out frames (I mean, I like Warby Parker but that's what they do and Lenscrafters now does), to have people you can talk to who are really familiar in how lenses are made and what adjustments can be done... well, that is very hard to find. Also notable is that the store is very cool, but in an authentic way. It's clear that employees like Ryan P. tend to really care. It's just a much different experience and often physical result from other eyeglasses stores. read more

The most beautiful optical shop there ever was! And they really focus on finding glasses that fit your unique face! Located in a historic bank building in the heart of downtown Petaluma, it maintains the grandeur of the bank but adds a modern design aesthetic. This family-owned shop offers an extensive variety of high-end eyewear. Not sure where to start? They will happily help you. I think it was Ryan who helped me. We did a super quick consultation so he knew my likes and wants. Then he and I separately took trays around the store to pick glasses that we thought I'd like. We reconvened and I tried them on. He told me what worked best and why given my face shape. I didn't make a purchase yet as I was waiting for my insurance to renew. I can't wait to go back and get some hip new frames! Beautiful space, incredible inventory of glasses, and exceptional customer service! Thank you! read more

My family and I popped into Veo Optics and walked out blown away. Cool family-owned spot with great decor and a super welcoming vibe - instantly felt different from the big chains. Ryan was our guy the whole time. Super chill, zero hard sell, and incredibly patient while we took forever picking out the perfect pair of sunglasses for my dad. We were also thoroughly impressed with everything else in the store, the frames are crazy lightweight, stylish as hell, and the prices are actually reasonable Honestly, if we didn't live 3 hours away I'd already be back buying another pair for myself. If you're anywhere near this place, do yourself a favor and stop in. You won't regret it. Fully recommended! read more

The perfect experience every time I pop into the store. Thanks for your help Ryan, quite literally perfect customer service. How many pairs of sunglasses is too many?! read more

Highly recommend! I just happened to wander into this store while I was checking out the area and everyone was so welcoming and helpful. I don't even need glasses, but I'm almost 44, so I figured chances are good that I will someday soonish, so why not figure out what frame style looks good on me. Two individuals came up and offered advice and feedback that was genuinely kind and helpful (not at all pushy). I will absolutely be back when the time comes and in the meantime will recommend them to others. read more

What a great spot. Amazing customer service. Helpful and attentive. Great selection of glasses and leather products. Got my husband a beautiful leather bag for our anniversary and they engraved it on the spot! read more

I wandered in here one afternoon, killing time. The salesperson, Ryan, offered to clean my glasses for me, and as he brought them back, he said, "Are these transition lenses? You must take good care of these. There were only a few scratches. Do you mind if I shine a UV light on them? I want to see what color they are." "Sure," I said. I was really just killing an afternoon, nowhere to be. He shined a light and gasped and said, "Girl, these are old! How have you taken such good care of these??" "Oh, does the transition fade over time? They're just cheap glasses I bought because I broke my Tommy Fords." He gave me a Look and said, "Do you have them with you ? I have a magician who might be able to fix them." As it turned out, I DID have my very broken glasses in my car. I've kept them for years now hoping something miraculous like this would happen. I brought him the frames and told him that my optometrist said there was no way to fix these. He looked at them and said, "I've never seen a pair of glasses we couldn't fix. If we can't fix these, I'll refund your money." A few weeks later, he returned to me, perfectly functional, as though they had never been broken, my beloved Tom Fords. Would that all customer service experiences exceeded expectations such as this one. read more

Its no surprise to me that Jesse and Eye has a 5-star rating. The entire staff are incredibly friendly, and I can't remember the last time I met people so single-minded on making sure the customer had a perfect experience. I had a difficult prescription and they bent over backwards to make sure they got it right and that I was happy with their work. Add to that their amazing selection of frames, their focus on the local community and the architectural wonder of their building, and I cant imagine why anyone would go anywhere else for their glasses. read more

Love this site! So very helpful and informative! Great selection of eyewear and accessories! Very attractive location. Well laid out. Love the pup inside as a "shop dog". Employees are very knowledgeable and friendly. Will definitely keep shopping here. read more

Growing up in Petaluma, I love to check out the downtown area whenever I'm back for a visit. I saw Jesse and Eye, a newer addition, and checked it out. The building is historic on its own but what they did with the inside is quite impressive. The atmosphere is quite luxurious for an eyeglass shop. It's a shopping experience. Jesse, the owner of the shop, is knowledgeable and welcoming to all customers that come in. Might I also mention the cute shop dog that was there to greet as well! Jesse helped guide me to some sunglasses that would compliment my face shape. I tried them on and he was correct. There is plenty to choose from and he gave me multiple frames to try. Good frames are an investment and you are paying for the service as well, but worth the value. read more

I made an appointment with Veo over the phone after seeing the YELP rating. I did not realize that Veo was the lavish shop in the old bank in downtown Petaluma. When I arrive I almost walked right out. I was sure it would be out my price range and I would be out of my element, however, when I arrived the staff made me feel immediately comfortable and really took care of me in regards to price. I told Ryan what I was looking for and he went to the back and grabbed a pair of frames and got it right on the first try. I waited no more than a couple of weeks for my prescription lenses. The team also went the extra mile on a few other things My daughter loved being at the store with the piano and parrots. Not to mention, the fun non-eyewear merchandise. Everything about my experience was wonderful. read more

The experience of finding the perfect pair of sunglasses was outstanding thanks to the incredible helpful staff member named Molly .

Moments before starting work, the arm fell off of my glasses. Luckily Amanda and Ryan came to the rescue with a new screw and a professional cleaning. While waiting I enjoyed live piano and perusing the eclectic assortment of goods on offer. Thank you for saving the day! read more

Love, love, love them! I walked in and instantly Molly walked over to greet me and helped me pick the cutest pair of Tom Ford sunglasses. Definitely recommend you check them out! Sweetest service, thank you Molly! :) read more

I don't know if this is the greatest optical shop in the universe but it is certainly the greatest optical shop ever in my universe! The former bank space housing the shop is glorious. The eyewear selection is wonderfully curated. What stands out even more is the high level of service provided. Enter Amanda. This woman knows her stuff! I've been wearing eyeglasses for a very long time and have never dealt with someone that was both so skilled at and interested in providing frame options that flattered my face. Amanda is knowledgeable, professional, and makes the experience feel like you're hanging out with a friend. I am utterly smitten with Veo Optics. read more

Beautiful frames and friendly, professional service! Shout out to Ryan who helped fit my new glasses and who was incredibly knowledgeable about the features of the frames - yes, the frame had special features :) read more

After eye surgery, I needed to swap out the lenses on the sunglasses I had previously purchased at Veo. Ryan and team provided the best customer service, making sure my glasses were expedited and I didn't have to go without. read more

Incredible experience from start to finish. Ryan has truly found his calling as a stylist extraordinaire. I had a blast trying on all the glasses he picked out that matched the shape of my face. Ended up with some new Tom Ford eyeglasses and DITA sunglasses. The hipstoric store is simply beautiful, and they've done a great job curating phenomenal frames as well as other aesthetically pleasing goods. Definitely worth stopping in! read more

Ryan was great! Really helpful at insightful for finding glasses that suit your face and highlight your features.

I walked in the building because I haven't been inside since I was a child and the building was a bank. I'm so happy that I did! I met Ryan who was very friendly and ended up tightening my glasses, in addition to cleaning them, discussing lens care, and complementing my frames. He even gave me a lens cloth on my way out. Excellent customer service! Thank you Ryan! read more

Loved my experience at this shop. The vibe is stylish and thoughtfully curated--like a boutique with a serious eye for design and detail. The staff went above and beyond, offering honest feedback and helping me find frames that not only fit perfectly but made the whole process feel fun and easy. I left feeling confident and taken care of. A total must-visit next time you're in Petaluma. read more

Great, friendly and prompt service. Jesse was a huge help in tightening my sunglasses which were slipping off after years of wear. He also generously offered to add a missing screw. The whole service was speedy and amazingly free of charge. It is rare to experience such friendly, professional and white glove service. The store is gorgeous and filled with beautiful bespoke glasses one rarely sees at big box stores. Giving this establishment 5 stars for excellence on all fronts. I will be back! read more

I have found my eyewear home. Seriously, I stumbled on the shop while out with a friend. I live in Bodega Bay, but Jessie and Eye is a *destination* eyewear (and lifestyle) shop. I met Jessie first, who cleaned my scratched up Ray-Bans in their eyeglass "car wash" machine and fitted me for two of his suggested frames for my face. They are perfect. I went in tonight to have some cleaning/adjusting on an Rx pair and one of my two new pairs. Ryan helped me and is super friendly, knowledgeable and accommodating. They know what they are doing and how to make eyewear fun, functional, AND stylish. read more

We were strolling down the main drag in old Petaluma and wandered in to Jesse and Eye. The boutique is part eyeglass shop with a huge selection of frames and part, let's say, well refined gift shop. Unique cocktail glasses, wallets, hats, purses, etc. all classy and cool. Ryan the Optician even adjusted my glasses, for free. What?! So, we left with new highball glasses and eyeglasses that no longer pinch my fat head. Great service, great people and cool stuff. read more

I have a friend who got her glasses here and I absolutely loved them, so when it was time for a new set of frames, I knew I had to check them out! As soon as I walked in, the staff was very friendly and greeted me. I asked if I could start trying items on, and Ryan was able to assist me in finding the perfect pair of frames! He even helped me out with my current pair by tightening the screws, which was very helpful. I ended up finding a pair of Tom Ford frames (coincidently the first ones I picked out), and Ryan helped pick out several more pairs to help look at against the "front runner". He was wonderful every step of the way to decide what was the best for me. We both agreed the first one was it! I've had many glasses over the years, and these were priced very well. The quality for the value is there and I will definitely be back when I need another pair! Thank you Ryan and Jesse for your assistance today, I really feel great with the result! read more
