Amazing customer service! Super honest feedback on which glasses look best! Same day, fast frames!! Will absolutely be back. 10/10 recommend
Drove from Palmdale to L.A looking for a same day service we unexpectedly ran into this location and we’re very pleased definitely would recommend they are very attentive to your needs. Very good customer service as soon as you walk in.
Amazing customer service! Family run. They will treat you like family. Also dog friendly!!!
The reviews don’tI brought in a pair of frames and was able to get new lenses in them within 10 minutes. While I was waiting, I browsed their in store selection and found a pair of fun new frames that the owner gave me a great price on. Wonderful experience with the friendliest and knowledgeable staff.I am so glad I found my new optical shop!
I’ve bought glasses online (terrible experience) and I’ve tried Warby. But I never found THE ONES until I came to Hour Glass. And it has everything to do with the staff and how well they know their stuff. Highly recommended!
Wonderful experience! I can’t say enough great things about this place. I was searching for a pair of prescription basketball frames (goggles) for our 5 year old son. This is one of the ONLY place in LA that can cut lenses on the same day! In most cases, they can cut your lenses within the hour!The staff is friendly, and the location is charming. We’ll be here again!
I was visiting in town from Texas and lost my glasses on Thursday, while my flight back was on Saturday morning (I cannot see without my glasses at all). I called every place possible and everyone said it’ll take either weeks or at best 24 hours to make a pair with my prescription. Hour Glass was the only place that was able to get it done immediately and they were able to save my trip from becoming a complete disaster. Definitely recommend this place to anyone in a similar situation who needs glasses made fast!
Best service I got my glasses in 10 minutes. Most important dog friendly.
This is hands down the BEST place for prescription (and non) eyewear in LA. Their selection is amazing, and they are so helpful when it comes to selecting the right frame for your face shape. They take their time and actually care about their customers here. Oh, and you cant beat designer prescription glasses in TEN MINUTES! Love this place.
I purchased the most expensive thin lenses and got cheap thick lenses put into my frames. The owner refused to take any blame (despite previously telling me my trash thick lenses were correct and the best money could buy!). She easily could have offered to order new lenses on her dime (since she fd up making sure my lenses were what I paid for) or store credit but nope! Go elsewhere if you want nice lenses done correctly. It also appears the owner is paying for fake 5 star google reviews...
It finally happened: I needed glasses, although mostly to track the ball better since I picked up playing tennis again recently.A friend referred me to Hourglass Optical so I headed over there to get pair of glasses with transition lenses. I could not be happier and pleased with the service or the eyeglasses.Kathy and Veronica are awesome. As a guy, I would have spent hours trying to figure out the right pair of frames but they picked out a few and ultimately picked out a pair that I am thrilled with. So beyond their expertise, the Hourglass Optical staff also have a great sense of style.I will not go anywhere else for that reason alone but they get a “10” for expertise, technical service (filling prescriptions for eyeglasses), and more (read on below).Unlike most optical places, they have highly-trained technicians in the store, which means you can get EXTREMELY FAST service (depending on your needs of course- I had specific transition lenses that required a little more time, but someone else was waiting while Veronica filled the prescription for the lenses so the team here really does work fast.Also, because they have technicians in their store, they can create custom prescription, transition, and progressive lenses for nearly any frame out there. If you have a favorite frame but need new lenses, Hourglass Optical is the place to go.
We really really appreciate the service and help from Hour Glass Optical especially Kathy, Veronica & Art and all the staff. I would highly recommend this place to all my friends and family. Exceptional service. Thank you so much guys!!!
Hourglass optical employees were very sweet and helpful. They even recommended some nice frames that looked cute on me! Thank you so much!
Love the service! Fast, dependable, great prices, and great people. Would highly recommend!
Wonderful service. Great variety of frames and super fast, got my new reading glasses in less than hour and had my puppy with me.
Have gone to them a few times over the years when my sunglasses screws fell out. They are always so nice and fix it promptly and at no charge. Certainly appreciate their great customer service!
Stopped by to have some nose pads fixed and they were so kind. Kathy quickly fixed them AND they were free of charge. I will definitely be back!! So happy I found them :)
Hour Glass Optical is in the top 5 of my experiences with businesses. They went out of their way to help me get my prescription glasses made (I was having difficulty contacting my eye doctor) same day (in only 45 mins actually), even though I was using my own vintage NOS frames. And their price was not only competitive, but actually lower than a lot of lens makers who dont provide same day service. You seldom find people who are not only highly professional and knowledgeable, but also genuinely friendly and fun to be around! And they have everything from budget-minded frames to frames from the latest high-end designers from Japan and around the globe. Art, Kathy, and Veronica are simply the best. Ill be back after I save up for those SALT frames!
I seriously enjoyed my time here, had a great conversation with the workers /owner and not to mention found a perfect fit for me within minutes. Don’t think twice about coming cus this place is better than any other glasses stores i’ve been to.
Awesome service! Will definitely come back in the future.
We came in because we lost a pair of glasses in the ocean on vacation. The people were fantastic and actually helped us get glasses the same day that were -10.25!!! I couldn’t say enough good about the experience I’ve had! Support this small business:)
I’m From Texas And I Lost My Glasses In The Ocean, They Were Super Helpful And Kind, They Had My Glasses Ready In 20 Minutes And At A Great Price! Highly Recommend It Here
I had such a wonderful experience. Better than any eyeglass store that I have ever been too. Veronica, Art, and Kathy helped me find the perfect pair of glasses, fit them perfectly and smiled the whole time. I highly recommend Hour Glass Optical for any of your eyes needs!
First time visiting this store and the store is awesome.) Wide selection of sunglasses and optical frames.))) Service are super nice and friendly staff.) They are repaired screw on my sunglasses in a second. Thank you so much.)))
Beautiful and charming help 10 steps above the rest, for the first time I can really see clearly now, will be referring for sure
Very helpful and friendly staff! Helped us get glasses in under an hour when we were in bind. Highly recommend.
They happen to be my neighbour. Bought apair of sunglasses online, but it wasnt fitting myface. I walked in and they fixed for at no Charge.I really appreciate you guys. Ill definitely get mynext pair here.
Wow, what an awesome store. Incredible selection, and excellent service. Easily the best optical shop experience Ive ever had, and Ive had a lot! Support this fantastic local business, they will take great care of you.
I came here and had custom glasses made in 10 minutes!!! The service is fantastic! I highly recommend this place!
Needed new plastic pieces put on my glasses. Took 20 seconds and they didn’t charge. Super easy, super pleasant. Will continue to go to them for more complicated repairs and new purchases. Nice to find a store that cares about customers.
Had a great experience with the team who helped me repair some sunglasses that the ocean wrecked. They were super fast and helpful, would definitely come back for any and all glasses needs!
Best place in town to buy glasses! I went to 4 other places before I came here and this place by far has the best selection. The staff is super friendly. I found a perfect pair of glasses within 5 minutes and they completed my lenses on the spot in only 10 minutes. I was in and out with rx glasses within 20 minutes - very happy customer!!
Kathy and Veronica were absolutely lovely, consultative and helpful. They made my broken pair of shades look like a million bucks.They’re also dog friendly! 🐶
Wonderful people. Great quick service!
Sat on my sunglasses, brought them in and they fixed them fast and brought them back to like new condition!
I tried 3 separate places that couldn’t fix the arm on my sunglasses. Art took apart my sunnies and had them back together with new screws in minutes — now they’re good as new. Would highly recommend!!
My experience at Hour Glass Optical was great and seamless. They were extremely kind and fixed the issue with my sunglasses promptly. I highly recommend them. Cheers!
Glasses in10 min or less, Great pricing came before closing still got my glasses of choise didnt have to settle got what I wantedKathy, Veronica, and Art are AWESOME, will be coming back for more chocolate!
I came in for a small repair, to have my sunglassenew tighten up because they were sliding down my nose.The repair was not only FREE but super FAST!They also very good selection of sunglasses, it was hard to restrain myself from not getting a new pair.
Where do i start. This is the Most Friendly, family oriented business i have ever been in. The service was Amazing. Great conversation great service💯 And the Prices are Real World Affordable Prices on Some of the Top e Brand eyewear in the country. I strongly amd Highly recommended Hour Glass Optical💪🏾
Exceeded my expectations!!! Not only did I get my glasses in 10 min. But they had a good deal on the frames!! Definetly will come back.
I had to get a pair of new glasses in 72 hours. They were very friendly, had a wide variety of frames and help me narrow down to the one I wanted.This was the best eye glass shopping experience they had.They also stay true to their promise and even though my lens type wasn’t available they upgraded me to the next one at no charge.Thank You. I’ll be back again soon to buy a backup pair and sunglasses.
I definitely will be coming back here. They got a vast selection of designer glasses to select from. The best part is youd be walking out with your prescription glasses within ten minutes. They also got contact lenses.
Wonderful! I got my nose pad changed for free, and the people there were very nice!
Never going to LensCrafters or anywhere else for that matter. Amazing customer service. Lenses done in ten minutes! Don’t sleep on this place!!
Great Service!Great Selection!& Fast!
These lovely folks fixed my glasses in minutes. Friendly and fast!
Always happy with the service and the prices. Great selection and everyone goes out of their way to make sure youre satisfied.
The staff was extremely nice, and fixed both my fiancé and mines frames for a low price. Truly the most convenient and local spot to get glasses. I drove all the way from lancaster, ca, because of the reviews. They definitely were not lying. 10/10 would come again and recommend to friends and family.
Amaziiing staff and selection! Super helpful and knowledgeable! Great prices too!
Hour Glass has so many great reviews I just had to see for myself. Now Im leaving my own five star review! I went there to see if they would be kind enough to replace a missing screw in one pair of glasses and tighten up the fit in another. I was more than willing to pay for their service, but they insisted on doing it for free. Free! I told them I was going to be writing a rapturous review and should I leave that part out? They said no! What a great service for all especially cheapskates like myself. I must mention that Ive never seen such a great selection of fantastic frames as they have. I will be back when I can finally and safely replace my expired Rx. Thanks Hour Glass Optical!!!
5 Star service at a great price.I wanted to find a place that would provide frames I was looking for with my prescription.Veronica was wonderful.I let her know what I wanted and she put the order together so quickly for me. She really made the whole process smooth and effortless for me.Initially it turned out the frames I wanted were back-ordered so she phoned me and suggested another style. After I picked them up and trying them out for a day I called and asked if I can exchange them. Veronica told me it was no problem at all and I can use the pair I have until the new ones arrived. The next day she phoned telling me she was able to locate a pair quickly and I could come and get them. Upon arriving she had the new frames and my Rx lenses with a tint correction as well in no time at all. I love my glasses!Id certainly recommend them and they have a nice selection of frames on hand as well.
Lost my glasses at sea. Then I came in to Hour Glass Optical and they finished my presecription in 10 minutes! They did a great job!
Wonderful service, great selection. I’ll be back.
Lost my glasses, got some plastic frames for around $100 total here. Great if youre in a bind theyll save your trip especially for the price.
I lost my glasses at the airport and was feeling really bummed about it. I’m in town for a week and I couldn’t go a day without glasses so I went to hour glass and literally within 30 minutes I had my prescription faxed and new glasses made and out the door. Turned my horrible morning into a great day. Thank you so much y’all!
So helpful and nice...no hard sell whatsoever...
Huge variety excellent service.. gott my glasses fixed at no charge it was worth my drive.
Quick, courteous- can’t beat the pricing! They dont want your money they are honest. Veronica pointed out some fees another facility was trying to add to my prescription that was not needed. Needless to say, I saved half the price. I was greeted with a smile and helped right away. I was also in and out :). I came here because of the 5 star reviews. They dont lie. Best place!
Great customer service, very fast turnaround time and good price. Kathy was very kind and helpful. She helped me find the perfect frame that would not only fit my lenses, but also look good on me and be within my budget. I will definitely be back again.
Came here last minute and they were able to get my glasses done quickly! I am very pleased with their service and recommend them to everyone. Thank you!!!
I came in with broken glasses not knowing what to expect. Thankfully, I chose the right place.Everyone was very friendly and helpful. My glasses were quickly repaired. The optician told me that he couldt completely fix the bend in the frame but I couldnt notice what he was talking about. The frames looked like brand new to me :D
Veronica, Kathy, and Art are the greatest of all time.I know, bc I am a tough customer.First review ever and it is well deserved.Thanks!
Amazing store. My Gucci is on good condition :)
Amazing service! Love them!
Great service, beautiful and good quality glasses, competitive prices and the store has its own parking.
Had to drive an hour and a half to get here and we arrived half an hour before they closed. They welcomed us and provided outstanding service with no issues. Thank you guys! 👍
Amazing and fast service! Definitely recommend!
I decided to come here to fix a pair of glasses after seeing the great reviews. The customer service was incredible and my glasses were fixed in minutes. Highly recommend this place.
Unbelievable service, had glasses ready in hours not weeks .others couldnt even make my high prescription
So happy I found Hour glass optical! Beautiful selection of glasses and sunglasses, and a friendly, super helpful staff. They straightened and tightened a pair of old sunglasses super fast for me. I’ll be back! Thanks!
I walked in today to get some blue light lenses and was immediately greeted with warmth and enthusiasm. Kathy was generous with her energy and services. I not only understood why they generate so many good reviews, but felt inspired to leave my own.
Great service! Friendly and fast! Will definitely come back again.
Exceptional Customer Services WILL be returning soon.
I went here after seeing the 900+ 5 star reviews. I am shocked with how great the customer service was. It lives up to its 5 star reputation 100%. I couldn’t be happier with how my Sunglasses came out! I highly highly recommend them if your looking for a nice pair of sunglasses or repairs for your sunglasses. Customer service was amazing and employs were very nice and helpful. Overall the best Sunglass store I have ever been to and I would highly recommend them.
Just found this place !! Great customer service! Will definitely come back for all eyewear needs ! Thank you Hour Glaas !
Amazing staff . Stylish frames. Professionalism. Very knowledgeable and helpful ! Loved my experience!
Wonderful customer service and prompt delivery time. Highly recommend.
The reviews are true! This place is AMAZING. I’m in town visiting and needed glasses ASAP. Veronica let me try on a million pairs until I ultimately decided on a frame I was into. When she told me that they would be ready in 10 minutes my jaw really hit floor. She was also able to help me out with a contact lense snafu I was in. Art was able to make them in probably less than 10. Veronica and Art are the dynamic duo! Nobody does customer service like this anymore. For all your vision needs Hour Glass is the place to go!
Best service. Very friendly and large selection.
Amazing! Great prices and experience all around! Never going to another place for glasses!
This a wonderful neighborhood shop for glasses. They are very welcoming, patient, and professional.Thank you! Highly recommend!
Thank you thank you thank you hour glass optical.... you fixed my broken sunglasses in less the 5 minutes! I’ve never been happier!Stepped on my sunglasses by accident this morning and I thought they for sure could not be fixed! People of Los Angeles this place fixes broken things and has a huge selection of beautiful frames and sunglasses!Thank you!
Came in last minute to replace a pair of glasses that I had lost earlier in the day. Brought in my own pair of frames and was in and out in 30 minutes.Service was friendly, speedy, and excellent. 10/10
Great customer service! I would definitely recommend them!
They were so lovely and helpful! Took ten minutes to get my prescription done and at a fraction of the price another place wanted to charge me.Nice seats to hang out in too.I highly recommend this place
Staff are friendly and they replaced my broken eyeglasses frames very quickly
Unbelievable service!!! Best place to come for a repair!
Great selection, quality products, and amazing service. I was there for less than 30 minutes and walked out with my new favorite eye glasses. 👍🏽👍🏽
Maybe the best customer service in Los Angeles/Santa Monica. If you need glasses or sunglasses this is the only place you need to go!
