Honestly, the most thorough eye exam I have ever had in my life, very well explained and detailed. They were really great, I'd definitely recommend them to anybody!

Report
Very thorough. Everyone was pleasant and polite and extremely helpful, especially for someone as indecisive as me when picking out glasses. Dr Teles is extremely thorough in his examination. He explains everything perfectly, in a way I could understand. I left there knowing exactly what was going on with my eyes. He had incredible patience and didn't mind my questions. I left this clinic, confident that my eyes were given the best care. I will keep coming here.

Report
I have been a patient at Looking Glass Optical for almost 15 years and I have never experienced the level of professionalism and care that Dr. Teles and Marc provide. Dr. Teles goes above and beyond to ensure a complete and thorough eye exam, leaving no stone unturned, while Marc delivers first-class support when selecting and ordering frames. If you value the health of your eyes, this is the place to go.
