About this location

A few stories people tell about this place

1. One morning, an elderly gentleman entered Eye Center Optical and asked the clerk for his usual pair of glasses. As she searched through the shelves, everyone in the shop heard it—a soft, clicking sound like tiny little drums. It came from behind the counter, growing louder with each passing moment. Finally, the clerk turned around—and there was a delivery driver, tapping his water bottle on the counter as he waited for his order. Everyone burst out laughing, realizing the sound had been coming from him all along.

2. A curious customer walked into Eye Center Optical one day and inquired, ‘Do you sell glasses that make people look like they’re smiling all the time?’ The optometrist smiled knowingly and replied, 'Yes, we do!' He reached under the counter and pulled out a pair of glasses with mirrored lenses. The customer tried them on and immediately started laughing—everyone else in the shop could see only their own reflection grinning back at them. 'Perfect,' said the satisfied customer as he left, leaving behind a trail of confused but amused neighbors.

3. At Eye Center Optical, customers started noticing something peculiar on their way out. The store’s sign inexplicably changed every afternoon around closing time—first it read ‘See Clearly,’ then later that same day it would say ‘See Differently.’ No one knew who or what was responsible. One day, a delivery driver arrived with new signs, but they were all blank. When asked why, he shrugged and said, 'I don’t know, boss just told me to bring these.' Since then, the sign has been simply reading, 'See...' leaving everyone to wonder—and occasionally argue—what exactly comes next.

4. A delivery driver pulled up outside Eye Center Optical one afternoon with a large box labeled ‘Top Secret.’ As he approached the door, a curious crowd gathered, wondering what mysterious item might be inside. Finally, after much suspense, the box was opened to reveal… a new pair of eyeglass frames in bright pink! The delivery driver laughed and explained it was just an April Fool’s prank from his boss. A regular customer joked, ‘At least now I know why my prescription is so colorful!’
