. "5"^^ . "1"^^ . "5"^^ . . . "I initially found this place during my hunt for Chanel frames that didn't cost an arm and two legs. Plus, I was looking for convenience. I work just an elevator ride away, and I wanted the convenient option of being able to run downstairs at lunch, pick out my glasses, pick up my order, etc., instead of having to drive somewhere else after work. I wanted quick, efficient, convenient, at a decent price point - and LF Optical delivered. Located in the Bay-Adelaide Centre, just around the corner from the food court, and in between deKefir and Second Cup, this is the perfect spot to consider getting your glasses, particularly if you work in the Financial District, since it's just a walk down the PATH. \n\nMy prescription is pretty terrible, and coupled with designer frames, I've been quoted $800-$900 at other opticals (i.e. Lenscrafters, Hakim, etc). I ended up getting a pair of designer frames from LF, helped by the wonderful and knowledgeable Julia, for one third of the price I was quoted at other opticals. Julia ordered my frames, at no cost and no upfront fee, from a location in the USA so I could get the colour I wanted. They arrived within 3 business days, and I received my full order with lenses by the end of that week. Quick, efficient, and at a good price. Also note that a majority of their frames are discounted - their Chanel frames are currently 30% off at the time of this review, in case you're looking. \n\nJulia, thanks for a wonderful experience, advice, and knowledgeable insight (she explained my prescription to me in ways my optician never did). You made the whole process seamless, efficient, and painless. Great spot, highly recommended."^^ . "2016-02-08T00:00:00"^^ . "2"^^ .
