About this location
A few stories people tell about this place
1. One night, a delivery driver pulled up outside the Columbia Eye Clinic and noticed something peculiar. As he unloaded boxes, a soft humming sound filled the air—like a thousand tiny violins playing in perfect harmony. Curious, he followed the music inside and found an old grandfather clock ticking away in the corner. The chimes were soothing yet oddly compelling. Suddenly, the clock’s glass door opened on its own, revealing a small room full of glasses and lenses. A voice whispered, 'Would you like to see what time it is?' Turned out, it was just an eccentric optometrist with a love for clocks—and our delivery guy got free eye exams for life.
2. One morning, an elderly gentleman entered the waiting room of the Columbia Eye Clinic and muttered to himself, ‘I swear I saw that same nurse yesterday… but how is that possible? The clinic’s closed on Sundays!’ Just then, a young doctor walked in, adjusting his glasses with a smile. 'Good morning!' he greeted cheerfully. 'Are you here for your routine check-up?' The old man nodded, still muttering under his breath. The doctor turned to the receptionist, who happened to be the one from the previous day—except now she was wearing her Sunday best. 'Oh, hello again,' she said brightly. 'Didn’t expect to see you so early.' The old man looked puzzled but amused, shaking his head with a gentle laugh.
3. One foggy morning, as patients shuffled into the Columbia Eye Clinic, a young intern stumbled upon an old photo frame hidden behind the reception desk. Curious, she picked it up—and suddenly found herself peering through someone else’s eyes. The next thing she knew, she was seeing through the eyes of an elderly gentleman who kept muttering about his ‘favorite soap opera.’ Turning around, she realized he was watching TV in the waiting room! With a giggle, she returned everything to its place and decided that maybe some days are just meant for strange encounters.
4. Late one night, a delivery driver pulled up outside the Columbia Eye Clinic and heard a strange humming sound coming from inside. Curious but cautious, he peered through the window and saw nothing unusual—until he noticed a faint glow emanating from behind the closed door. He opened the door slowly, expecting to see something extraordinary, but found only an old doctor dozing in his chair with the office lights dimmed low. Turns out, it was just another late-night eye exam gone wrong—literally! The delivery driver left, shaking his head and muttering, ‘Next time I’ll deliver to a place where they stay awake.’
