What our
customers say
I recently visited this location for an eye exam ( my first in many years) and I have to say it was a great experience from beginning to end. The front desk receptionists were friendly and helpful and Dr. Jana who performed the eye exam was thorough and efficient. The best part of it all was when I meant to follow up with my health card number regarding an eye specialist referral, Dr. Jana reached out to me promptly so she could get me in with the specialist ASAP which showed great attention to detail and concern for their patients. The price of the eye exam was also very reasonable. Don’t hesitate to make your appointment here!
I had a great experience with my contact lens refit with Dr. Jana. She made the whole process very comfortable and easy.
Best place if you are looking for prescription glasses. I got my glasses in 10 mins. Thank you Richard.
I've been a customer since they opened and have accumulated six pairs of prescription glasses (two sunglasses, four regular), with six different pairs of arms, and at least a dozen different pairs of pins. That's several hundred potential combinations! And the frames rarely change, so when my vision does, I just pop the new lenses into any of my old frames.
I had a great experience at Dresden with Richard and his colleagues - they were all very helpful, knowledgeable, and professional. I purchased multiple glasses (and lenses), and had the lenses in my own sunglasses replaced as well. I am *really* impressed with the quality and service they offer, and I wish everyone knew that you can get beautiful frames and quality lenses at an economical price. Apparently the frames also come with a long warranty and are almost unbreakable.
Such an awesome experience. Love the glasses Claudia was super helpful Be back for some more colours soon
Professional service. Great selection. Affordable Prices. What more can you ask for?
As usual, in and out quickly because the choices are uncomplicated. Very happy.
My wife and I loved the little Riverside location shop that has a true old school look and vibe. Cozy and colourful is an accurate description from our experience. Nafisa was super friendly, professional and helpful as she assisted us in our choice from their frame and colour options. The price point at Dresden is hard to beat. Definitely worth a closer look for anyone in need of great quality and affordable glasses!!
Excellent, friendly, knowledgeable service and the best price I have had for glasses. Large selection of frames and colors. They care about assisting their customers to purchase the proper glasses in fit, style and color..
