Shades Optical

i’ve known marcia and dr. bill since i was about 10 years old (almost 30 years ago!) and have been buying glasses from them since about age 16. they’re an incredible staff through and through and go above and beyond for their clients. very thorough eye exams, a beautiful collection of classic and funky designer glasses, and they’ve happily put lenses in glasses that i haven’t purchased from them, some delicate and vintage. marcia is incredible at giving advice about which glasses flatter and which don’t, and is a WIZARD at adjusting fit - plus she’s a lovely human being. i now live in NYC and they’re still my go-to glasses shop. LOVE you, shades!

THIS IS THE PLACE! Jackie was attentive to the max - offered to fix and clean up all our glasses (like 10 pairs) and made us feel like movie stars. They’re turnaround for glasses replacement is the fastest in town. This is the only glasses shop in Detroit - head in and you won’t regret it.

I had the nicest experience in this shop. Kate is so knowledgeable, she’s got a great sense of style and is really great at what she does.

I needed my first pair of glasses on very short notice, and the team at Shades exceeded all expectations. With their expert guidance, I found the perfect pair that not only fit me well but also looked fantastic. The process was incredibly smooth and my glasses were ready in just two days. The level of service was outstanding, and their curated selection as well as expertise ensured I left with something stylish and high-quality. If you're looking for glasses, Shades is the only place you need to go!

Shades Optical continues to offer the most thorough eye exam, and the latest designer styles of frames I've seen anywhere! By far, the best customer care and advice!! I will never go anywhere else again. Thank-you Jackie for your stylish suggestions. I receive compliments everywhere I go.
