Optical Illusion

Always a great experience! The staff is super friendly and knowledgeable. They always have a great stock of merchandise and fairly priced. Highly recommend going here for glasses and eye exams. I have been going here for years and have never been disappointed.

Friendliest most knowledgeable staff. Great selection and customer service. Convenient location and very fair prices as well.

Really great office. Everyone is super friendly and attentive (unlike 9^th Street Optical where 2 receptionists «forgot» to give me the paperwork and totally ignored me for 30 minutes).
I order my daily contact lenses here and always get extras. They have great doctors onsite and I am never disappointed with the service. 5 stars from me.

I walked in off the street since I live a couple of blocks away and Optical Illusion was listed on my insurance plan. First, they have the nicest selection of frames I’ve seen yet. I got personalized attention from the optometrist (a young woman who gave the most thorough exam with the utmost patience that I have ever experienced); then the same personalized attention from Gary, the manager/​owner. They spent about 2 hours with me, never rushed; worked with my insurance company and flexible spending plans who were giving me the run around; and finally provided a great pair of glasses with the high quality components promised.
One aside, on a Saturday afternoon I went in for an adjustment and I did not get very good service from a younger man at the counter who was brusk, dismissive and damaged my frames. However, when I went back and spoke to Gary, he made it right immediately! Very, Very impressed!

GO HERE. I’ve been going here for years and am completely loyal — I will never go anywhere else. They always go out of their way to try to get me a few free extra contacts when I order dailies and they custom order whatever sunglasses I want online often at a better price. Even though I only show up twice a year, they always remember my name. It’s one of the few places where you actually get unrushed, personal attention as a customer.

Outstanding service! I am so pleased with my experience there. Gary was so helpful and very patient with me. I got a pair of glasses and ordered 6 months of contact lenses. I’ve been wearing corrective lenses since 1989 and this is one of the only places that I’ve been to where I really feel like I received personalized service. Thank you Optical Illusion!

I’m another defector from 9^th Street Optical. Optical Illusion is way better; I was seen right away, got a trial pair of lenses and the exam cost less than at 9^th Street ($ 85 vs. $ 130 or something). Also, for some reason it always takes a couple of weeks to get lenses from 9^th Street Optical; OI says I’ll have my new lenses in a couple of days. You rock, Optical Illusion!

A friend referred me to Optical Illusion when trying to find a new pair of glasses. He raved about the service, selection and price and I was not disappointed by his referral. The eye exam was thorough and easy by a very friendly and knowledgeable optometrist and the sales staff was extremely helpful. They made the process of picking out a pair of frames very easy, giving their opinion but at the same time not trying to push something that I was not too interested in. I checked the price on line after selecting the frames and they were cheaper at Optical Illusion than anywhere I could find. Great experience, I’m hooked!!!

I was refereed to Optical Illusion by one of my employees who wouldn’t stop talking about the service and prices. I’ve been to a number of optical stores, both for prescription lens as well as sunglasses. The service and selection at Optical Illusion is unlike anything I have ever experienced. Both optometrists were very professional, jovial, and extraordinarily helpful. They patiently saw me through my first experience with contact lens and made the whole process a lot more comfortable than I was led to believe it would be. The prices on the contacts that I purchased were 15% cheaper than anything I found on-​line as well. The prescription glass and two pairs of sunglasses that I purchased there were also about 15% cheaper than anything I found on-​line. All-​in-​all the experience was amazing. The sales staff, doctors, and owners were all respectful, professional, and very knowledgeable. I would strongly recommend Optical illusion to anyone who needs contacts, prescription, or sunglasses.

After having a terrible experience at 9^th Street Optical, I ventured in to Optical Illusion which was right around the corner from my house. I was seen right away and given tip-​top service. The guys who work there are very friendly and willing to get you whatever you need. I felt extremely comfortable and the doctor was amazing.
They have a good selection of glasses and are pretty well priced.
Quick, friendly service like this will keep me coming back for a long time.

low key, friendly and with a better selection than you’d think from the street. still deciding but definitely a contender. eye exam fast, professional and only $ 40.

I was recommended to this place by a local business owner and she was so right! The prices on lenses are significantly less and of higher quality than the other places I went to. I wanted thin lineless trifocals and got prices from my optometrist and Lenscrafters — both almost the same price. Then I went here and not only was the price $ 200 less but the quality of the lenses is amazing with no distortion around the edges. At first when the owner suggested the top quality lens I thought maybe he was trying to upsell me, but no way. The prices on frames are pretty competitive.
