I have been using Hakim Optical for about 10 years now to fill my prescriptions for glasses and they have always given me excellent service. The frames are very stylish and I most times end up buying 2 at the same time with the many deals they have. I have become friends with the staff, in particular Vicky, who is very charming and gives me excellent customer service. For the short time I have know Pat, she has been wonderful in terms of customer service.I recommend Hakim Optical to everyone.Read more

I had a very good experience at VK Optical. Tucked into a small shop on St. Clair, I found a lot of interesting frames, much nicer than what the box stores sell. My prescription is a bit complicated, but the team at VK Optical did a thorough check before making them and my new glasses are the best. Perfect. Friendly and helpful people. Read more
