This place is an absolute gem and staffed with the loveliest, most helpful employees you could ever hope to meet! Not only did they figure an outstanding issue I had with my prescription but they expertly guided me through the process of finding new glasses, broke down the pricing for me, and even assured me that I didn't need to pay all at once. The care and compassion you'll find here is remarkable. Also, a special shout-out to Paul, who is not only hilarious and so nice but also a fashion icon whom helped me find new glasses I have gotten so many compliments on. I cannot recommend this place enough!!

Really clean environment inside and outside. I appreciate the fact I was in as a new client and after my paperwork was filed less than 10 minutes later I was going downstairs to get my eye exam. The way the staff treated me was very professional and extremely polite. I felt really comfortable in the doctor's care getting my eyes examine. I only have one disappointment, mass health coverage only pays for exam. There is no frames or even the glasses that were covered. I was very sad to hear it would have cost me $250 minimum for them. Really expensive for that to have me pay. Eyes on Worcester wasn't even expensive. I paid $78 for everything there.
I have never felt compelled to leave a google review until now but Darryl and the team at South End Eye were phenomenal!!!!!!!!! I’d been putting off going to the eye doctor for a few months since I moved, but figured I’d take a shot here since it was close to my house. The doctor was incredibly thorough and answered all of my questions, and Phal and Martha at the front were so kind and lovely. They were even able to make my glasses that same day and made mailing out my reimbursement forms a breeze. Thank you South End Eye!! If you’re looking for a new optometrist I would highly recommend :-)
Really cool, attentive crew. They worked with me to get me full discounts on my contacts. Amazing array of frames to choose from. A real gem of a store.
Highly recommend!! Get your next pair of eyeglasses here! It is high time I add my review to this long list of well-deserved raving reviews. This place is fantastic. They have a wonderful selection of frames and the staff is incredibly good at helping you find the one that best suits you. Before coming here I was unaware of just how many micro adjustments you can make so that the eyeglasses sit properly on your face. It is a testament to the team, to their dedication to their craft, and to giving their customers the absolute best experience that they really take the time to adjust your frames fully. On top of everything else, they are just a delightful group of people.
