About this location
A few stories people tell about this place
1. In Visionworks, an old sign in the hallway reads: ‘If you leave your glasses here, they will be returned exactly when you least expect them.’ One day, a delivery driver left his shades and promptly forgot about it. The next morning, he found them on his kitchen table—complete with a note apologizing for the inconvenience. A few days later, a neighbor dropped off her reading glasses at Visionworks. When she came back after a week without them, she found not only her specs but also a handwritten thank-you note from the staff, along with a small bottle of eye drops labeled ‘in case of lost vision’.
2. At dawn, when most people were still dreaming, a delivery driver pulled up to Visionworks with a box marked ‘Top Secret.’ The receptionist took it without asking questions, and that night, strange things started happening in the store. Suddenly, every pair of glasses on display began playing old rock hits from the 80s. Customers walked in humming along, and soon the whole neighborhood was dancing while trying on frames. By closing time, Visionworks had become the coolest place for impromptu karaoke parties.
3. At closing time, a regular asked the clerk, ‘Why does it smell like bacon here?’ The clerk shrugged and said, ‘I’ve been told it’s from those old wooden frames we keep in the back.’ The regular laughed and replied, ‘Well, I guess that explains why I always feel so hungry after visiting!’
4. At night, when the streets fell silent, a soft humming began to echo through Visionworks. Employees swore it came from the empty fitting rooms, but no one could explain its origin. One day, an elderly neighbor walked in and asked if anyone had seen his glasses. After searching everywhere, they found him sitting in the quiet fitting room—completely oblivious to everything around him, wearing a pair of old reading glasses he’d left there weeks ago. Everyone laughed so hard that the humming stopped, never to return again.
