About this location

A few stories people tell about this place

1. It was an unusually foggy morning in downtown Chicago when a delivery driver pulled up to MyEyeDr., his headlights reflecting eerily off the wet glass doors. As he stepped out of his truck, he noticed something odd: the sign above the entrance seemed to blink on and off, as if someone were flipping it on with their finger from inside. Curious, the driver knocked gently on the door. Suddenly, a sleepy voice from within said, 'Just a sec!' followed by the sound of someone rubbing their eyes. The door opened a crack, revealing a blurry-eyed optometrist who asked groggily, 'Can I help you?' The driver smiled sheepishly and replied, 'I think your sign is blinking.' With that, they both laughed, realizing it was just another foggy morning prank.

2. It was a bright, moonlit night in small-town Indiana when a delivery driver pulled up to MyEyeDr., his headlights reflecting eerily off the sign's old glass letters. As he stepped inside with a box under his arm, the receptionist whispered something strange into her colleague’s ear, causing them both to giggle nervously. The delivery driver, curious now, leaned over the counter and asked what was so funny. The receptionists looked at each other, then burst out laughing even harder. Finally, one of them said, ‘We just realized that your headlights look exactly like our new logo!’ The driver blinked a few times, smiled sheepishly, and left, muttering something about needing new glasses himself.

3. At MyEyeDr., where glasses were always on sale, a regular muttered one day, ‘I wonder if they’ve got contact lenses for cows?’ Suddenly, a delivery driver popped his head in and asked, ‘Actually, I’m here for some specs for my horse!’ The whole place erupted in laughter, but the staff just smiled and said, “We’ll find something for everyone.”

4. At MyEyeDr., where glasses were always on sale, a delivery driver exclaimed one afternoon, ‘Why do I feel like my new reading glasses are making everything look cheaper?’ A regular customer overheard and laughed, remarking, ‘Maybe they’re just showing you how much money your old purchases cost!’ The delivery driver shook his head, smiling, as he adjusted his own glasses—now seeing the world with fresh perspective.
