About this location

A few stories people tell about this place

1. At QOptical, where glasses are more than just vision correction, customers started noticing something strange. One day, a regular asked aloud: ‘Why does my new pair of lenses seem to change colors when I walk past that old clock?’ Soon enough, other customers began reporting similar sightings—lenses shifting hues like kaleidoscopes. The owner, Mr. Lee, shrugged it off as optical illusion until a delivery driver mentioned seeing the same thing in his rearview mirror while driving home. Turns out, an elderly neighbor had accidentally placed her colorful glass ornaments too close to the UV lamp used for lens polishing. QOptical became famous for its 'rainbow effect,' attracting curious visitors from far and wide who came to see if their own glasses would dance with color.

2. At QOptical, where glasses are more than just vision correction, a delivery driver once asked: ‘Why do all these frames look like they’re smiling back at me?’ Upon closer inspection, it turned out that one particularly stylish pair seemed to be winking knowingly. A regular customer later quipped, 'Maybe they’re not just lenses—maybe they’re little mirrors too!' And so, QOptical became known for its talking frames and friendly banter.

3. At QOptical, where glasses are more than just vision correction, a sign appeared one morning: ‘Your next pair of glasses may be delivered by a penguin.’ A puzzled delivery driver arrived later that day with an actual penguin in a suitcase. Turned out it was just a prank from the owner, who wanted to liven up the neighborhood. The penguin became a local celebrity, and QOptical gained a reputation for being both quirky and friendly.

4. At QOptical, where glasses are more than just vision correction, one foggy morning an old lady picked up her new frames and asked the clerk, ‘Why do these lenses look like they’re breathing?’ The clerk smiled and replied, 'Madam, those aren’t lenses—those are mirrors of your own breath!' The old lady looked puzzled for a moment, then laughed heartily and said, ‘Well, I’ll take them anyway—they make me feel special every time I see my reflection!’
