Art and Science of Eyewear

I wish I had gone here first! After a poor experience at one of the other optometrists in Lafayette, I thought I'd try Art and Science of Eyewear. Pleased that I did. All round a very pleasant experience with a knowledgeable and experienced person helping me who took the time to uncover what would suit me best. There were several options clearly explained, some based on cool new technology which I am looking forward to trying. I was impressed. The interior design added to the experience as it is spacious, attractively decorated, and has plenty of eyewear options. What surprised me is that they had been in Lafayette for 20+ years and yet still offered genuine, caring customer service. They even continued to put quarters in the parking meter so I didn't get a ticket!

The Art & Science of Eyewear has a fantastic selection of glasses from traditional to fun, edgy glasses. Their employees are all trained opticians--and they know what they're doing. Anna (owner) is the best! She spent a lot of time with me making sure everything was perfect and I love my new glasses. Their glasses can be pricey (especially the ones I like) but worth every penny. I grew up being told the most expensive thing you can buy is something cheaply made, and it's true. Another thing to note is the majority of stores where you buy glasses only have one optician on staff. The others are salespeople without extra training. So when you visit The Art & Science of Eyewear, you know you are getting the most qualified people to fit you with new glasses

Truly bespoke glasses. At last, truly custom fitted-to-the-face frames and lenses thanks to Art and Science! I've worn dozens of expensive glasses over the years purchased from as many eye-wear stores, and yet this is the first time I've had the lenses and frames measure and made to exactly fit the width and structure of my face. All other previous sellers merely measure my eyes to determine the location of the pupils in relation to the bifocal component of the lens and pair the measurements with standard type frames (that are sometimes crudely bent to fit at delivery)...but Amanda at A&S went above and beyond to measure the appropriate width of the frame itself so that the temples would flow straight back and not bow outward from the lenses to my ears. Moreover, she measured and delivered optimal nose pads vis-à-vis size and location (she had several differing samples and chose the one that was most comfortable - and that would ensured that my frame/lens would stay put and not touch my face). Lastly, the length of the temples were customized to my ears...which has delivered extreme comfort and assurance that the glasses stay put [even when I exercise vigorously]. Based on my experience, I will exclusively use A&S going forward and can recommend them without hesitation.​

Love this optical wear store. Have purchased two frames from them with excellent service and care offered by the people who work there. Cracked one pair requiring part of the frame needing replacement part from manufacturer, and Amanda there had my glasses good as new in four days! The owner Anna runs a ROP notch business in terms of immense selection of gorgeous, distinctive eyewear as well as customer service. Highly recommend.

I highly recommend this place! The people who work here are exceptionally friendly and helpful and their inventory of frames is exceptional.
