About this location

A few stories people tell about this place

1. At Jansen Optical, an elderly gentleman tried on his new glasses one morning and declared, ‘These make everything look sharper than ever!’ His wife replied, ‘They do indeed—even that old clock across the street now has two hands.’ Soon after, a delivery driver walked in, complaining about a scratched package. With a twinkle in his eye, the optometrist asked him if he’d tried his new specs yet. The driver put them on and exclaimed, ‘Wow, these are amazing! Now I can see every ding and scratch on everything!’ Everyone laughed, realizing that sometimes seeing things more clearly isn’t always what it seems.’

2. A delivery driver pulled up outside Jansen Optical one afternoon with a box of new frames. As he reached for the door handle, he felt something strange beneath his feet—an old coin, glinting in the sunlight. He picked it up and noticed an inscription: ‘Lucky Find.’ Smiling, he popped the frames inside and went in. Later that evening, while adjusting someone’s glasses, the owner exclaimed, ‘Hey, aren’t these yours?’ The delivery driver laughed, shaking his head: ‘No sir, they’re mine now!’

3. At Jansen Optical, a curious customer asked if their newly adjusted lenses could see through walls. The optician smiled and replied, ‘Not quite, sir. These lenses are for seeing clearly, not spying on your neighbors!’ The customer laughed, satisfied with his explanation, while a delivery driver outside overheard and joked, ‘Next time he’ll ask for X-ray specs!’

4. At Jansen Optical, a regular exclaimed in surprise as he noticed that his reflection in the store window seemed to be wearing someone else’s glasses. A delivery driver stopped by to pick up an order and asked curiously why there were so many pairs of mismatched spectacles on display outside. The owner smiled mysteriously and whispered, 'Ah, those are just our special “try-on” collection—we like to keep things interesting for our customers!'
