About this location

A few stories people tell about this place

1. One morning, an elderly gentleman entered Eyemart Express and asked the clerk, ‘Do you have any glasses that can see through walls?’ The staff laughed it off, but ever since then, customers swear they’ve seen strange reflections in the store’s mirrors. A few days later, a delivery driver mentioned seeing a shadowy figure behind one of the display cases. When the manager investigated, he found nothing but dusty old frames. Since then, though, some employees claim they can spot unusual shapes out of the corner of their eyes—maybe just their imagination or Eyemart Express playing tricks on them.

2. At Eyemart Express, customers started noticing something peculiar one day when the store’s intercom blared, ‘Attention, everyone who needs reading glasses—please proceed to checkout immediately.’ It turned out that a regular had accidentally pressed the wrong button on the intercom while trying to alert someone about his new prescription. The manager eventually calmed everyone down with a smile and an apology, explaining it was just another day at Eyemart Express—a place where even technology gets confused.

3. One afternoon, while a delivery driver was unloading new frames into Eyemart Express, he noticed a strange humming sound coming from inside the storage room. Curious, he opened the door—and found dozens of pairs of glasses whispering softly to each other. The driver cleared his throat and asked gently, ‘Are you lost, little spectacles?’ The glasses stopped chattering for a moment before one pair slowly raised their arms—turning out to be just a stack of old frames held together by Velcro! Everyone had a good laugh that day, including the delivery guy who learned never to take things too seriously again.

4. One day at Eyemart Express, a sign above the counter read: ‘If your glasses make you look smarter than you feel, try our new lenses.’ Regulars began snapping photos and sharing them online. Soon enough, everyone in town was stopping by Eyemart Express just for the funny signs. One day, a delivery driver asked the owner, ‘Why not put up a sign that says “If these frames make you look richer than you are”?’ The owner smiled and replied, ‘Because then no one would ever leave!’
