Italee Optometric Center

I would definitely recommend this optometry. The service is great, and the prices are really good. They have a lot of styles for all ages. I’ve been coming here for 3 years and I refer all my friends here.

I got glasses at Italee optometric and I just have to say I had the very best experience. Thomas helped me and was just wonderful. They have the best selection and best prices in town. Their office is just beautiful and every member of the stuff goes out of their way to take care of customers. This is truly the best experience I’ve ever had with an optometric company. They are the best I highly recommend them

Had a great experience here… took my whole family in-​we all needed something. The staff was very patient and helpful in answering all our questions and sorting through all the different types of frames we were uncertain about. After hours We left without a thing then ended up going back a few weeks later and they were just as kind. My daughter got glasses and my grandmother did too. They are so happy with their new frames and their improved vision.
A bit more $$ than LensCrafters but I do believe it’s worth it.

I’ve been going to italee for the past 8+ years. Friendly and efficient staff. Ask for Ms. Lee and she’ll take care of you!

I don’t live anywhere close to this place, but I make the drive because they are so good at what they do. Chris Park has helped me purchase and repair several pair of glasses over the years. If ever there were an expert at eyeglass fitting and repair, it is Chris. He is a consummate professional. I’ve done several eye exams there as well. The store is clean with high ceilings, and they have great inventory from top designers. They do everything on site, so their turnaround is fast. For the smaller brands they carry, they can repair right then and there. They’ve also rewarded my loyalty with much appreciated pricing. Always a good experience at Italee. They are eyeglass aficionados and they take great pride in their customer service.

If you’re here for sunglasses, prescription frames, or frames, you are at the right place. They have the largest selection and lowest prices I’ve seen anywhere.

Quick and easy and the prices are fair. I didn’t have to wait all day for my glasses either. the SwissFlex rimless frames are awesome. They are hard to find, but Italee is an authorized dealer. Check them out.

I will never get my eye wear any where else.

Extremely satisfied with this place, exam and prescription was prompt and accurate, very patient and friendly optician, bought 2 frames, place’s parking is accessible and convenient, would recommend to everyone.

I was referred to this place by my sister. I wanted something fancy and most of the places in los angeles seemed to carry just the generic ones. I got three reading glasses and two sunglasses from them over the past two years. They’re all holding well and still look great. The place is nice and clean (if not luxurious) Staff is always friendly, Work is done on time as promised.
Pricing is on the expensive side but you get what you paid for. Probably the best place in LA area.

If I can give 0 star i would
overpriced and bad after service.
we bought $ 300 glasses for my daughter and go back for repair and they ask another $ 105 for repair
when they sell them he was telling us that glass has no glue on it so it’s easy to fix and
that’s why it’s expensive.
and then we went there for ordering broken parts he said they have to glue them and it needs special service and thats going to be another $ 105 dollars
also we bought emergency glasses since her old one got broke so i ask cheapest one
he showed me $ 39 frames and soon as my daughter pick one he said «Oh that actually is $ 59 frame, you have very good eye for a picking design!» and charge extra $ 20 dollars and another $ 45 for eye check up since it;s been a year so total we spend $ 170 for CHEAP glasses
I been going back cuz it was our first optometric center but we had enough
so please check out few more different places when you buy your glasses
I learn my lesson

This place is the best of the best! Marty is my favorite sales person however all the the sales persons are top notch. I have been going to Italie for many years now and have always been extremely satisfied with their services. I have never once felt cheated. No better optometry business better than this one. Much higher class than any of the places that I have visited on Montana Avenue in Santa Monica and Beverly Hills. Very kind and professional staff and I admire the way they treat their customers.

HEY! I’m Not Korean and GUESS WHAT?! I got the best service ever! I love this place! They don’t discriminate and they have the coolest selection of glasses ever! Their eye exams for non insurance people are about $ 40 which is awesome and the optometrist really takes his time to figure out your correct prescription… That’s why I will always be loyal to these guys!

I’ve been their long term customer for years. Their customer service been above and beyond for every visit I made. This time I walked in for my daughter’s glasses and tried to use the pediatric vision insurance that I am entitled to recieve. They asked me to come back an hour later because they were too busy to see her.

I have Angel to thank for selecting the perfect shade of tint for my glasses; because of him, I have received. countless compliments from total strangers, customers, friends and coworkers on my new glasses.
The lenses are crisp and clear progressive, the prices are higher, however — but worth the quality for me. Fast, too!

True that they are a fairly large optical center with many different posh designer glasses. Their selection is huge. I would agree that they do cater to the Koreans more as their English speaking may not be the best. The only non-​Korean people I have seen being helped are those accompanied by a Korean. I have not been impressed by some of the staff here as I bought some Masunaga glasses and the man assured me I would get the best deal in K-​town about a year ago. After I had paid I went to the market and in passing stopped by another optical center that beat the deal by $ 40. So when I return I told the man I had found the glasses with prescription for cheaper but he pretty much didn’t give two cacas. Went in there again today for another pair of Masunagas and this other male staff seemed clueless and I even asked my friend, «does he even work here?» There was a certain style I was looking for so he went to look it up in the database for their other branches and said there were none. However, I ended up finding it in their Koreatown Plaza branch… what the jack. Service here is not the greatest.
If you choose to buy never pay sticker price as you can ask what the best deal is and they’ll come back with a lower offer. Shop around before you swipe your card here. There are many other optical shops that carry posh name brands that might not be as big but still have what you are looking for maybe even cheaper or in my case exactly what I was looking for.

This is one of those types of places where if I had the ability to give negative stars, I would.
I came into the place wearing a LA Kings t-​shirt. I am also not a typical fem looking Korean guy that Koreans are used to. So Hector, who was actually helpful approached me and asked me if he could help me. To the perfectly bilingual Korean employees, I give you the fist clash (a la Friends).
What made matters worse is that their selection is only limited to expensive (mostly made by Luxotica, of course) brands. If they downgraded their merchandise, heaven forbid, they would actually gain clientele and maybe bring in Non-​Korean/​Hispanics. GASP!
These guys really need to work on their customer service. Actually, strike that. They probably feel that they don’t need to because they are the biggest optical place in Ktown. It’s sad, really.

This place is great! I went there 2 years ago with my previous prescription from an outside doctor. I can’t remember the name of my salesperson, but he was terrific! I dropped off 2 pairs of the Kawasaki frames I had purchased at one of those hoity-​toity Beverly Hills stores AT ALMOST TWICE THE PRICE Italee charges! I also discovered that the Beverly Hills store sends their Kawaski frames to Italee for lenses because Italee is one of a very, very few optic companies (I couldn’t find any in the area) that is able to work on that line of glasses. Boy, was I angry with the B.H. store & with myself for going there.
Anyway, the service, lens work, and prices at Italee were outstanding! So I took the frames back a month or two ago with my new prescription. This time I worked with Thomas, who was magnificent! He was patient, helpful, and a genuinely nice person. Because of the customer service I received from him (although I have always found the store staff to be most courteous), I decided to buy a new pair of SwissFlex frames from Italee. (They have many smart-​looking frames in addition to the two lines I have mentioned.) The price was good and Thomas was again helpful (and right!) when I asked for his opinion on color.
I will return to Italee in 2 years with my new prescription, and two years after that, and every time I get a new prescription from my doctor. And I will ask for Thomas. I recommend him, and the store, highly. I only wish I had found them sooner!

Great prices and they have most of the brands you want. I just picked up my Ray Ban prescription glasses. This is my third pair that I’ve bought from them. I originally sought them out because they were the only folks I knew at the time that carried the Kazuo Kawasaki lines at the time in the area, so I got my pair of Kazuo’s here, and was so happy with the glasses and their service as well as their price, I went back to get a pair of Oakley prescription glasses for work, and I just went to get my Ray Ban dual tone wayfarer glasses. I will go back to get my Ray Ban Liteforce sunglasses. If you’re looking for high end glasses, they have it. Check them out.

My mom found out this and our favorite optometry place, Luxi, are sister locations so we started going here too since there is different stock.
She needed one of her glasses repaired and two readjusted (my mom has a serious glasses fetish) so we popped in. First person helping my mom seemed maybe newish and actually broke one of my moms frames. They now have to order her new ones. My moms favorite person here is Thomas and he took it from there to help us out and the experience was much better.
I was admiring glasses while waiting and found one I love, a lilac Prada frame, that is very different from my current Fendi maroon frames. While a impulse buy isn’t possible usually for glasses, they said they can do mine in under an hour! Next door to the optometry center is their own lab instead of sending it to a third party making quick service possible. Definitely a advantage for me since I am from out of town. I can grab lunch in K-​Town and have new frames by the time I’m done. Awesome! One thing that is a plus is for good customers like my mom a good deal is always a given. When I got back to pick up, someone else helped me readjust them, but was very courteous just the same.
Even though I live in Vegas, I still go back to get my frames in LA. Great prices, speedy and attentive service, great stock makes this a very good spot to get your new spectacles.
