North Austin Optical

North Austin Optical is great! I am a retired physician (MD) with moderately high nearsightedness. When I recently scratched the lenses of my favorite glasses, I went to Myron for a replacement. Thinking that my favorite frames might be too old to be reused, he told me, «Your old frames are in good shape. Just replace the lenses.» I really appreciated his honesty and concern for my welfare. Now I have a pair of high index (thin) Transition progressive lenses with beautifully beveled edges and top of the line anti-​reflective coating. I love my new lenses! No more smeary surface problems! No more glare!
It really makes a difference where you get your glasses! Myron really knows how to measure you so that you are seeing through the optical centers of the lenses.
I also go to North Austin for frame repair, adjustment etc. Myron is a real professional. He knows his stuff as well as being honest, kind and friendly. He always does whatever he can to help you out. North Austin Optical is an all around fine place that I am proud to recommend!

Myron is a gem. Even though I don’t live here anymore I stop in to say hi and he remembers my name. Even though I am going to have my eyes checked home in DC, I bought some frames from him and will fax in my xscript and he will do them up. I know that they will be perfect.
Need any optical items, make sure to see him first and you will never go anywhere else.

Myron is the only guy I go to for glasses. His service is outstanding. He trusts his customers. When I went in to find a new shape for frames, he loaned me three pair to take home for opinions from my wife and daughters. And they were not cheap frames, either. I can stop in any time for questions, adjustments, more lens cleaner, etc and he always remembers my name. Top notch business and a great guy.

I went to North Austin Optical based on the strength of the reviews. The reviews were accurate! I have bifocals, a very strong prescription, and am picky about how my frames fit. I have never received better customer service or better lenses in Austin (or anywhere else). North Austin Optical has a great selection of quality frames (lots of the frames are made in Italy) and Myron was helpful in selecting ones that looked good on me. Due to a strong prescription I need high-​index lenses with anti-​reflection coating. The cost at North Austin Optical was in line with other shops and several hundred dollars cheaper than the highest priced shops in town. I recommend North Austin Optical to anyone needing glasses — Myron is an experienced and skilled professional who provides excellent customer service.

I highly recomment North Austin Optical! Under the heading of «customer service» in the dictionary, North Austin Optical must be listed. I went there upon the recommendation of my Mom & I was not disappointed. Myron was patient, informative & even loaned me a pair of «readers» so that I would be able to read while my prescription was being filled & my broken frames fixed. Mom even told me about the time when she went there & saw Myron helping a customer at his car. This customer had mobility issues & it was very difficult for him to get in & out of his car. Myron met the customer at his car & went back & forth to the shop & got the customers glasses adjusted so that the customer did not have to get out of his car. Now that’s what I call service! I agree with Chris B., too bad Myron does not do eye exams! Kudos to you, Myron! From your loyal customer, Cassie H.

I went to this business based on the previous review. I found that North Austin Optical fully deserves the excellent review given. Myron provides professional, expert service and a wide range of stylish frames. Highly recommended.

I love this place. The guy that runs the joint, Myron, is an awesome dude. He will tell you exactly what he is capable of doing for you and he will do everything he can to make you happy. If you ever need a quick repair, a replacement lens, or any other eyeglass type stuff done, you should definitely swing by here. Myron is the only one I call when something goes wrong with my spectacles. The only down side is he doesn’t do eye exams… you will have to get an exam elsewhere. But trust me, get your prescription wherever you please but take that shit to Myron and let him hook you up with your glasses. He is worth the extra trip. I am not sure how else to put it… Myron is a straight shooter, and an all around great guy. If you take your business anywhere else you are missing out.
Pros: Myron is a Badass Dude, Work Always Done When He Says it Will Be (Sometimes Earlier!!), Good Selection of Specs
Cons: Must Get Prescription Elsewhere
