Silver Lining Opticians

Best never worn vintage Persols in NYC. Amazing selection, quality prescription lenses and service. Each pair is like a one of a kind work of art. Pricey but worth every penny if you want truly unique glasses. Once you shop here nothing else will do.

This is without a doubt the worlds greatest eyewear shop. A friend turned me on to it and I've been a customer since. There's a unique selection of new glasses for the everyman, and a deep history of vintage which the owners are thrilled to guide you through.

Amazing service. Attentive and helpful they actually help you find a pair that you like. Incredible selection of interesting and unique frames the guys really know their way around the glasses.

Great selection. Superb customer service. No pressure to buy and honest appraisals of how frames work with your face. They don't act as if they're doing YOU a favor.

This is a great store, I met both of the owners and they were knowledgeable and very helpful. They give honest opinions of what works best on you, and don't seem to just be steering you towards overpriced options or anything. Furthermore, the selection is completely unlike anything you'll find at a regular glasses shop. Jordan explained that he's one of the guys that gets called if an independent eyeglasses manufacturer is releasing a vintage-inspired line, and the actual vintage stuff is cool too. It's definitely worth a look.

It is a NYC apparel boutique though, so don't expect to find anything on the cheap.‎
