This is the nicest shop. A few times I have brought broken glasses to Bill and it really been an emergency not able to see. He has cheerfully made better than new repairs for short $$. This is old fashioned service in the modern world that is hard to come by. My headache is all gone :-)
What a wonderful lady there to help and guide go above and beyond. Just lovely and much appreciated. Also helpful I. Fi dmy way around , so grateful
There aren’t enough enthusiastic adjectives to describe the exemplary service and expertise you’ll receive at Longwood Optical. Bill is incredibly knowledgeable about his craft, ensuring that your glasses will not only fit perfectly but will look great too! More than once he’s handed me a pair of frames I didn’t expect to like, but once I put them on I loved them. Unlike a store where you wander around trying on frames solo, Bill aids you in the process and is happy to work within your style preferences and budget constraints. The quality of the lenses you’ll from Longwood Optical is bar none, and overall the whole experience is a delight. The friendly service Bill provides is invaluable and the quality of the glasses I’ve purchased from him have consistently been leagues better than anything from any chain store. Highly, highly recommended!
By far the best experience I have had an optical store period. Bill is a consummate professional and is equally qualified to either pick the perfect frame unique to you or set you up with a great deal on contacts. His stock is amazing and he can get you anything. I recommend this store to all of my colleagues and friends and honestly don't feel this strongly about almost any other small business.
While I haven't purchased eyeglasses from this place (yet), I have experienced outstanding customer service every time I have visited this store. I have a pair of Silhouette eyeglasses that are unique in that they are wireless frames, very lightweight and no one else in the area can repair them. I have had a few problems in that things have broke on them and every time I have come here they get fixed very quickly, very professionally and with a very friendly demeanor. When I get new healthcare coverage that has eyecare included I will be back to buy a new pair because they're great!
