Best place ever for ordering contract lenses! Recently the lenses manufacturer had problems which caused a delay, so I started to run out of my lenses. Peter has sent me some trials promptly, so the problem was avoided. Much appreciated! Also, the customer service is good

Peter had been my optometrist for many years. His relaxed and friendly approach is like having a friend with you to help choose, no 'sell'.
Having had frames, lenses, sunglasses, and contacts over the years. They've been both pick-up in store and delivered and could be happier with the staff service. We no live out of the city, and still have no plans on going anywhere else.
