Independent Eyeglasses & Frames
As an independently owned optical store, we can acquire and offer frames that you won’t find anywhere else, without any red tape or restrictive vision plans. We want you to have as many options as possible, from exciting brands like Erker’s 1879 and Silhouette, and we love sharing the latest trends and newest incarnations of long-standing classics with our communities.
