    read moreGreat experience! Fantastic selection, clean and fashionable office environment, and truly white glove service.

    I was walking past Spectacles Fine Eyewear, when a pair of sunglasses caught my eye. I walked in and was warmly greeted by John. I showed him the pair I was interested in and had some questions about other brands, at which time we walked me through the store explaining the products and their price points.

    Their selection is truly awesome, from classy to flashy, dressed down or loud, you'll find a really awesome set of shades from any one of their brands. Gucci, Tom Ford, Maui Jim, Ray Ban, Oakley just to name a few.

    After making my selection, Mina cleaned the glasses to factory new condition, helped me complete the warranty paperwork, and held engaging conversation while we wrapped the process up. Couldn't be happier with the experience and purchase.

    Huge thanks to John, Lana, and Mina for a great first experience at the store. I will certainly be back to purchase every one of my next pairs.

Jon went above and beyond to make us feel welcome. We were visiting our daughter from Germany and swung by Spectacles to pick up a pair of glasses for her. Jon was very knowledgeable, professional and thoughtful. He took it upon himself, with great care and empathy, to adjust and clean our glasses without being asked. What a stark difference between the lack of customer service we are used to. Thank you Jon for restoring our faith in customer service again. We appreciate you! read less

We ended up purchasing two pairs of glasses each. In the process we met Jon who has given us exceptional service. He is very knowledgeable and friendly. After receiving our glasses his follow up was amazing. As it turns out, my husband was not completely satisfied with the comfort of one of the pairs of glasses and Jon insisted on replacing them with a different, more comfortable frame at no cost. I have needed my lenses replaced on both pairs of my glasses, due to me dropping and scratching them. Jon had new lenses ordered and put in a matter of days at no charge. We highly recommend Spectacles and want to recognize Jon and his exceptional, professional and knowledgable service. read less

The staff was great and the experience good. But, my prescription turned out to be wrong (twice!) and Spectacles was very accommodating about my old doctor’s mistakes and replaced the lenses. I lost faith in my old doctor and decided to give Dr. Birenbaum a try. So glad I did! He was so thorough and so good at explaining everything. I have total confidence in him, and the staff is really great. I’ll be going back every year. I highly recommend them. read less

A beautiful storefront location off the lovely Legacy West, Spectacles Fine Eyewear, lives up to expectations the moment one steps into its modern-style lobby and is warmly welcomed by classy, professional, and friendly team members (who love to offer complimentary water bottles)…and by an air of elegance about the place. Dr. Birenbaum is exceptional at what he does, displaying and sharing his passion for eye health along with his expertise. He doesn’t just inform, he educates, inviting his patients into the world of eye care and why it matters for lay folk. He is a wellspring of information and a friendly and elegant gentleman. The check-out process was smooth and easy, and the team members at the desk offered me another water bottle and complimentarily cleaned my current eyeglasses with their state-of-the-art opticwash machine (which both cleans and sanitizes eyeglasses). A very pleasant experience, and truly the best eye care visit of my life! Highest commendations! read less

    I am going to go back and get some reading glasses for future needs.
    But they are not a must , so this makes me happy!!!!
    I definitely recommend Dr. B for any of your eye needs.
    His staff is great also - Joe helped me find the perfect sunglasses for my face . I loved them immediately !
    And the lady in the front I can’t remember her name , (I’m so sorry 😞) but she was very sweet.
