Your Choice Optical

I was referred to here by Costo for inexpensive repair of my glasses. But twice I landed up in front of their store only to find they were closed without reason. Although the timings mentioned in their IVR/​Yelp indicated that they were supposed to be open at that time. I was driving from Woodland Hills and was a bit disappointed to see the store closed on 2 occasions. Found another good store in Tarzana. Not coming back here again. This is the problem with Mom&Pop store vs franchisees!

I found this place on Unilocal and called them because I needed my prescription filled for my eye glasses within a couple of days. I did not have the time to wait two weeks nor did I want to pay to have them rushed. The owner and his wife were very friendly and helpful, my eye glasses were ready in two days at a great price. :)

I first learned about this place when a worker at LENSE CRAFTERS broke my wire frames during an adjustment and then referred me to go have them fixed at Your Choice, which I call Jimmy’s. (Yes I paid for the repair.) That was years ago and I have had a couple more pairs of wire frame glasses repaired over those years saving myself hundreds of dollars by not having to buy new frames or a whole new pair of glasses before a prescription change was needed. I’ve also had old lenses put into new frames here. I’ve never again purchased at LENSE CRAFTERS. I think of Jimmy as an honest and ethical businessman — someone who will tell you if a frame is beyond hope, if he can’t guarantee results because it’s too tricky, or if he can do it.
I’ve also priced totally new prescription here recently and I swear we were talking about ½ to ¹⁄₃^rd the price of Lense Crafters. The selection of frames is not what you’ll see at a more expensive designer/​Ventura Blvd kind of place, but after you’ve seen dozens of them it may be hard to tell.
I BELIEVE JIMMY AT YOUR CHOICE OPTICAL MAY BE THE ONLY PERSON IN THE SAN FERNANDO VALLEY, MAYBE ALL OF LA COUNTY, who REPAIRS!
