      Wish I had found Island Vision years ago!
      A friend recommended it to me and I have to tell you, it's great!
      Large selection and prices are less than I've been paying elsewhere. Staff is friendly and knowledgeable. Gary is the person to see. Island Vision really takes the time to help you find the right glasses.
      I bought 2 pair and am coming back with my daughter.

      Terrible customer service. Very pushy and unfriendly. Hung up the phone on me when I declined to set an appointment with the eye doctor. Beware of this place!!!

      Best optician in Town - Gary is a legend and Danielle was super sweet. It's a family run business and I've been coming here for years...from sunglasses to contact lenses and beyond!!!

      It kinda feels like a stand up comedy show when you walk in, but with A+ customer service and a great selection of products. Prices are great and they are friendly and really care about making the customer happy.

      Thanks again Island Vision!

      Could not have asked for a better optical store! Gary was so informative and knew exactly what glasses I needed. The glasses came so fast and look amazing. Thanks to the whole team there but huge shout out to Gary!

      This eyeglass shop has cool frames and i had an excellent contact lens exam. Their prices are decent and I don't have insurance for Vision but their charges were really fair!

      Love my new glasses!! I needed a prescription with progressive lenses, transition and scratch-guard. The eye doctor helped me pick out my lenses. I took selfies so I could see myself in each "trial" pair before making my final choice. I was able to get a smaller lens, both in size and thickness than my previous lenses. I've had my glasses for six weeks and they're still looking good. Staff is wonderful. Don't hesitate to stop by and a great pair of glasses!

      Great selection of frames and knowledgeable friendly staff! I've gotten Ray Ban eyeglasses and sunglasses that I love. They are always willing to make adjustments on them when needed. Highly recommend coming here and getting what you want!

      Island Vision is my one-stop-shop for all things visual. The service is bar-none and prices very reasonable. Ask for Gary by name!

      First to Review

      A 10 years customer to this business I never buy a pair of glasses without asking the advice of the owner. I was seriously in the past two years misguided as to the quality of his frames and the fit.He made the sales by over-rating them and within a few months the latest pair at the hinge came lose. After spending a serious amount for the glasses his only recommendation was to recharge me for new frames and never took into consideration the glasses were defective.He avoided my need for my glasses, didn't respond to my calls and his assistant referred to my concerns as "nonsense." Since it was a return he told me to shop somewhere else. They are very nice for sales but the sale seemed to overrule the honesty of their answers and for the frequency of having to have lose hinges retightened I would only conclude his merchandise is extremely inferior. BTW for the price he did not even offer me a protective plan.Sorry I was sweet talked all this time,now in order to see a little I have had to wear an old pair with the wrong prescription until I get my new ones which are damaging my eyes and giving me headaches. They are no longer in charge of my most valuable possession -my vision.
