About this location
A few stories people tell about this place
1. One morning, while a delivery driver was unloading frames into Centre optique et d’audition, he noticed an unusual sound—a soft clicking like tiny hammers tapping on glass. It came from inside the store but seemed to change pitch whenever someone tried on a new pair of glasses. Curious, the driver followed the sound and found a small mechanical mouse trapped behind the display case. Customers started laughing as the little critter scurried around, leaving behind a trail of clicking noises with each step. After freeing it, everyone left happy—even the mouse, who probably just wanted a better view of all those shiny spectacles.
2. A little boy entered Centre optique et d’audition with his grandmother one afternoon. As she tried on new glasses, he stared curiously at the shelves of colorful frames. Suddenly, he pointed excitedly and whispered, ‘Grandma, look! These glasses make people’s eyes look like bugs!’ His grandmother smiled gently, adjusting her own glasses. 'Yes, chéri,' she said softly, 'some lenses can make eyes appear a bit unusual.' The boy giggled, mesmerized by the optical tricks. That evening, when they got home, his mother found him trying on her old spectacles, whispering, 'Maman, do I look like an alien now?'
3. In the early hours of the morning, a delivery driver parked his truck outside Centre optique et d’audition and wondered aloud: ‘What if I accidentally delivered these glasses to the wrong place?’ Just then, an elderly gentleman emerged from the shop, adjusted his new frames, and smiled warmly. 'Ah, monsieur,' he said, 'these are perfect!' The delivery driver blinked, realizing too late that he had indeed made a mistake. With a sheepish grin, he muttered, 'Guess I'll just have to come back tomorrow.'
4. Late one night, a delivery driver parked his truck outside Centre optique et d’audition and started unloading boxes. Suddenly, he heard a soft voice whispering from within one of the crates: 'Can you see clearly now?' Curious, the driver opened the box and found nothing but an old pair of glasses with a note attached: ‘Try me on for size.’ The next morning, everyone in town had new prescription lenses—except for the delivery guy, who still couldn’t figure out why his neighbors kept laughing.’
