"it's not how you feel, it's how you look and you look marvelous"
It IS about how you look, but it's also about how you see...
All of the frames that we carry are produced and designed by independent eyewear companies. What this means is that the designers who design our products don't design handbags, cars, jeans, shoes, hats or anything else- they know optical and they know fashion and using the highest quality materials available, they create stunning pieces of fashion that are also function.

Your glasses are a medical device and while that should be remembered when purchasing them, they don't need to look like one.
Lens technology is constantly evolving and it's our job to stay on top of this. We work with the best labs in the country to ensure that you're in the best possible lens for you.
Depending on your lifestyle, you may consider more than one pair of glasses. We offer specialized lenses such as:
-
Computer lenses
-
Golf lenses
-
Prescription Ski or SCUBA goggles
-
Kids prescripton sports goggles
-
Cycling glasses
-
and more
GARRETT
General Manager/Licensed Optician
Garrett brings a love for the fashion of frames influenced by his years spent in Europe, combined with a fresh perspective and knowledge of the cutting-edge advances in lens technology. He takes the time to work with you to find the perfect frames and the best lenses for your individual needs.
CHRISTIE
Licensed Optician
Christie used to be a full-time optician responsible for overseeing the inventory for a multi-location boutique but she left that to pursue her passion, art. Now she works at Opt a few days a week but focuses the rest of her time creating clever and unique designs for her company Whimsically Frazzled.
She's also the artist behind our signature Philippe painting! Click here to see it.
MAX
Apprentice
Max is our newest addition to the Opt crew. He's young and enthusiastic about learning not only about all things optical, but the business in general. Max has picked up frame styling rather quickly and we're eager to see where this takes him!
PHILIPPE
C.P.I.C.
Philippe Sherman Leach IV comes from a long line of Chief Puppies In Charge and as you can see from his photo, he's all about the bottom line. When he's not at Opt he's sharpening his puppy skills at Pooch Pawsitive, with his favorite dog walker, Ava, laying on the couch or running in the field by his house with his gang of dog friends.
Feel free to bring your four legged friend in to say hi!
