Dinkytown Optical

Was recommended by a friend. This was my first time getting my eyes checked. Ask for Jason, very friendly and great customer service.

I highly recommend this small shop in Dinkytown. So many current frames to choose from and they are great to work with.
Jason made my glasses in their lab so I got them fast and I love them!

As of now I’m not super impressed… I was told my glasses would be ready in two days a week ago, they weren’t. Now when I called to check on my glasses they said they didn’t know when they’ll be ready. Before I bought glasses with them I made sure to ask how long it would take to get them back. I was told max 3 days.
I’m heading back to Texas (where I primarily live) soon and I won’t be back for a month, so I would really like my glasses. We will see what happens and I’ll update my review then.
They get two stars only because it was really inexpensive. I paid about $ 130 total. The frames were originally $ 90(I think) but I had a groupon for the frames that I paid $ 19 for. The lenses came out to a little over a $ 100. ***My total did not include an eye exam.***

Update: They called me back after they called the manufacturer and my glasses should arrive tomorrow. The manufacturer is going to overnight my glasses. Apparently mines were the only ones not sent. They get a couple of extra stars for trying to fix this problem, but they should really try to stay on top of things more. A week to get glasses is not a long time, but unfortunately I’m on a time crunch.

I definitely would recommend this place if you or looking for designer frames at a great price. The Groupons are an awesome deal, and the associates are friendly and don’t try to push you into buying anything. Great selection as well.

Needed a quick fix on my glasses. Walked in, and they helped me out right away. Fixed my glasses in minutes, for next to nothing! Thanks!
