What People Are Saying

    “

    Wow, oh WOW! GREATEST optometrist I've ever been to. Extraordinary staff, Dr French is thorough and straight to the point. The lady who helped me with my glasses, was honest and VERY helpful. "These look good on you. These are not beneficial to the contour of your face." Straight up pricing. She found me some frames I LOVE and they were in the price range, where my insurance would cover them. I can't say enough great things about this place. Thank you! Thank you! THANK YOU!!!
