About this location

A few stories people tell about this place

1. At SEE Eyewear, every morning starts with an unusual sound—a soft clicking like tiny little hammers tapping in perfect rhythm. A regular noticed it first and mentioned it to no one in particular until one day, a delivery driver joined the conversation. It turned out that every morning, the owner's parrot was practicing his newly learned English phrases by mimicking those tiny clicks from the store’s equipment. The delivery driver laughed so hard he almost dropped his package, and soon enough, word spread around town. Now, whenever someone asked why there was always that strange noise at SEE Eyewear, everyone just smiled and said, 'Oh, that's just their friendly neighborhood parrot trying to improve his vocabulary!'

2. At SEE Eyewear, one day a delivery driver left something unexpected in the parking lot—an old pair of glasses that seemed to follow people around the store. Employees tried to return them, but each time they vanished before anyone could claim them. Finally, an elderly gentleman walked into the shop and asked if anyone had seen his missing spectacles from childhood. Turned out, those ‘mysterious’ glasses were actually his long-lost treasure! Since then, SEE Eyewear has become known not just for its frames, but also for occasional reunions with forgotten memories.

3. At SEE Eyewear, one afternoon, a curious neighbor stopped by to drop off her pet parrot. The bird kept staring at the display cases and suddenly started mimicking every pair of glasses it saw. Finally, an embarrassed customer tried on each pair, hoping to silence the chatterbox. To everyone’s surprise, the parrot matched each frame perfectly—even pronouncing ‘progressive lenses’ with impressive clarity!

4. At SEE Eyewear, on foggy mornings, customers often notice a strange phenomenon—an eerie humming noise seems to come from behind the counter. Some say it’s just the old machinery in the back, but others swear it’s the ghost of an optical technician who used to work here decades ago. One day, a delivery driver even claimed he saw a shadowy figure adjusting lenses while no one was around. The humming continues, and most people now ignore it—or hum along with it themselves. On particularly misty days, you might catch a regular customer whispering, ‘I think I hear something,’ only for everyone else to smile knowingly and nod.
