WHAT ARE PEOPLE SAYING ABOUT US?
"SF Optics has an amazingly beautiful and diverse selection of frames.
Alex Feldman, the manager, and the rest of his team are friendly and
knowledgeable about their products.
I came in to look at sunglasses, and - I kid you not - the first pair
that Alex handed me (by Robert Marc) were absolutely perfect. Even my mom,
a retired optometrist (she practiced for 30 years) thought they were a great
fit and didn't even try to adjust them (which she ALWAYS does).
I will definitely return to San Francisco Optics for future eye wear purchases - their
variety and selection is some of the best I've seen."

"...I was able to find some great frames for the prescription that I was sure I would need.
They really put a lot of effort into making sure that you get the glasses that are right for you.
They don't rush you to make a selection and push you out of their store. They want to make sure
that you are satisfied with not only your purchase but your experience in the store as well.
With the frames and lenses purchsed I had my eyes checked and I indeed was in need of
prescription lenses. After my exam I faxed over the prescription and they went to work
finishing things up for me. Apparently my prescription required a bit more work and a
difference in material than what I had originally purchased but rather than spring the
difference on me without notice they picked it up.
You just don't get that kind of customer service anymore!"

"I love this place.
They have a great selection of frames, and some unique styles all under one roof
(Alain Mikli, Paul Smith, Oliver Peoples, Gold and Wood). I have bought multiple
glasses from them, and they were very flexible in helping my Father get some on a recent
visit out here from England.
Also, they have a knack of picking a perfect frame for your face. It is a little strange
when you first go in and they start advising you, and I can see why some people might get
offended, but the frames they selected for me were perfect. It isnt like they FORCE you
into buying one pair in particular, but they do pick styles they think will suit your face,
and they are good at it. The one pair they selected for me (Alain Mikli) I have loved for
over a year. The one time I was ADAMANT on what frame I wanted, regardless of what they
advised..... I ended up returning the frame because I went off them after a month or so.
So my advice, dont be too upset that someone else is advising you on how they think you can
look good, they are really trying to help you after all! So just go with it. At the end of
the day, you can totally ignore their advice and still buy the frames you really want."
