Pirates and sailors believed piercing their ears and wearing a gold hooped earring could improve their vision. Others would eat dozens of carrots a day in hopes the vitamin A would slow down the wearing of their vision and correct visual impairment. Eyeglasses made their first appearance in Italy around 1284.
These primitive spectacles were immensely popular, however, uncomfortable and inconvenient, and they did not have arms. People would tie ribbons to their ears or around their head, to solve the problem. At Universal Optical we feel that vision care is extremely integral to your overall well-being and should not be left up to myths, vitamins, or ribbons, to improve your eyesight.

I called these people to see if they offered eye examinations and was informed that there was access is several optometriss on the second floor that worked in conjunction with them. A further inquiry regarding the cost of the examination revealed an excellent price of $85 which is substantially less then about three or four other eyeglass stores that I called. If their prices for eyeglasses are reasonable I would recommend this store but I would suggest that you verify the cost before purchasing.

I wish I read the reviews before I came here. This guy and his son are con artists. They tell you one price and then charge you something else. The frame broke twice within a year. They don't know which brand is it so they can't even replace it. How come you don't know what you sell? How do you know what to charge for it then?

Service was fantastic. They were accommodating, patient and professional. I purchased progressive lenses but could not adjust to them. So, I ended up with glasses for driving and a pair for reading. They even selected the frames I ended up choosing. Seriously, no need to review any further. Great experience!

I bought a dealfind voucher worth $200.00 for this store. They did not have anything for me at that price so I think it is a scam. The sales clerk told me they had 1800 orders from DEALFIND though the online page says 55. Why would he lie to me? I did not trust him after that and have requested a refund from Dealfind.
