The Considered Choice
From the eye test to picking up my glasses, the whole process was smooth and enjoyable. The staff were warm and welcoming, and helped me find frames that matched my style perfectly. There’s a great variety of stylish frames to choose from. I’ll definitely be back for another pair. Couldn’t recommend enough!
This is my second year buying glasses from J Hyde and I’ve been a customer at both stores. Both Vic and Anderson were amazing at helping me find the right glasses for my needs.They have a wide selection at various price points and style options. I’ve had dozens of compliments on the pair they helped me pick.I’d highly recommend visiting if you need a new pair of glasses.
