by MAY0NYC at Citysearch

I went there today after checked the reviews. I like the service here.. The owner helped me find the right fit one without rush.. Also she tell you don't let anyone rush you to make decision if you don't like it. Take your time and choose the one you want. Also she have a lot of discount frame which is only $99. It's designer frame. I love this place and will tell my friend to go here.. You will never disappoint.

I joined 4 you

by Miamia at Citysearch

My friend Becca found this place from Citysearch 2 years ago and I just went there with her for my eye exam (oh yeah, I just moved to Chelsea.... love it) and new glasses. I had some Flex money left and I needed to use it immediately, It turns out after two years of headaches with my glasses from Texas I was wearing a bad prescription. Dr. Rozenberg gave me a new Rx and Jesus (ironic) helped me choose funky new frames and now I see great. I had to tell everyone... great job!! 10/10, I'll be back 2011 with some more Flex $. xxxxThanks.

Regrets

by Rosmer at Citysearch

I had been getting glasses with progressive lenses at 10/10 Optics for over ten years. Each time I got a new pair, I would remark on how narrow the horizontal field of focus was. The friendly staff assured me that this was a necessary limitation of progressive lenses. Shortly after I got my last pair, I realized that the style was a mistake, though I had chosen what I liked best in the store. I found an optician whose styles I liked better and had new glasses made from the SAME prescription. When I put them on, I couldn't believe the improvement in vision quality. They provided a wide, natural field of vision. I asked the optician the reason for the difference. He said that the only apparent reason was that he used Zeiss lenses (a high-quality brand), whereas the 10/10 lenses were not Zeiss. I now feel that my vision may have suffered needlessly for all those years.

SIMPLY THE BEST

by countrycats at Citysearch

I came here after reading reviews and after walking out of another optometrist office who told me that I should take whatever offered because I am a "difficult fit." I told this to Ruth who took it as a personal challenge. Well, it's one year later, and I have 3 pairs of glasses from here, and just ordered a 4th. Dr. R gave me a good prescription, and Ruth and Jesus worked w/me for a good fit. For 50 years I was told I could only have small round lenses due to my high prescription-no more! I now have stylish glasses! Ruth will not allow you to get glasses that don't work-she has actually snatched some off my face! Consider that when you go someplace that is only interested in selling you the most expensive item, whether or not it flatters you.

Sure, 1010 Optics costs more, but if you wear glasses daily, then consider the cost on a daily basis-not so much to look good.

• Pros: EXCELLENT AND TRUTHFUL SERVICE
• Cons: NONE

Excellent selection and service...

by NYCgal1 at Citysearch

Lovely store. I have a small face and head and have always had to wear child's frames as a result. 10/10 had a big selection of petite frames for grownups. I sat down, and the very first pair that the clerk pulled for me was a win and the one that I ended up buying. But all of the ones that she showed me were beautiful. They have this digital imaging thing where they take pictures of you wearing the different frames so you can see what you look like! So much better than a mirror. I bought a pair of really cute sunglasses, too - they were on sale. Easiest trip to the optometrist that I've ever had - I was in and out in about 10 minutes, no joke. Highly recommend.

• Pros: Helpful, professional staff and selection
• Cons: Honestly can't think of any
