The Optical Boutique

Designer Frames, Styled and Fitted to You

Our optical boutiques in Old Forge and Clarks Summit carry a curated gallery of designer eyewear — from Italian fashion houses to independent ateliers — each pair fitted in person by frame specialists who know your prescription as well as your style.

What makes the boutique different?

Choosing eyewear goes beyond good vision. It says something about who you are, and it changes how you see and how you are seen. With so many shapes, materials and labels to choose from, finding the right look can feel overwhelming — so our frame specialists do it with you, unhurried, one pair at a time.

Because the boutique sits inside a doctor’s office, the people styling you also understand your prescription. The frame you fall for will carry your lenses well, sit comfortably for years, and deliver the sharp, crisp vision you came in for. Patients from Old Forge, Clarks Summit and across the Scranton area come here for exactly that: fashion-forward frames and clinical attention to detail under one roof.

How do our frame specialists fit you?

A proper fitting is part measurement, part conversation. We look at your features and proportions, how the frame sits on your nose and behind your ears, and whether its width suits your face. Then we ask how you live — desk days, weekends outdoors, work that is hard on eyewear — because that shapes which materials and lenses make sense.

Just as important, we align the optical center of each lens with your pupil; even small errors reduce how well a prescription works. Once you have chosen, we adjust the fit before you leave and are here whenever it needs a touch-up.

  • Frame width, bridge and temple length checked against your face, not a size chart
  • Optical centers measured to your pupils for the clearest possible vision
  • Frame shape and depth confirmed to suit your prescription, including progressives

Which frame shape suits my face and lifestyle?

A useful rule of thumb is contrast: a frame that gently opposes the lines of your face tends to flatter it. Rounder faces often look sharpest in angular frames; strong, square jawlines are balanced by rounder or oval shapes; longer faces gain proportion from a frame with more depth. Oval faces can wear most shapes, so the choice becomes about color, material and personality.

Lifestyle matters as much as geometry. Long days on screens call for a lightweight frame with anti-reflective lenses. Active, or hard on your glasses? Look for durable materials and spring hinges. Progressive wearers need enough frame depth for the reading zone. We narrow the wall down to a handful that suit you — then you choose the one you love.

Which designer brands do you carry?

The collection is curated, not crowded: the Italian houses — Gucci, Prada, Fendi and Versace — alongside Dior and Tom Ford, British heritage from Burberry, playful American color from Kate Spade, independent design from Face à Face, and the ultralight rimless craftsmanship of Silhouette. The full list lives on our Eyewear page and rotates as new collections arrive.

Whether you want a bold statement piece or a quiet classic you will wear for years, we would rather show you the right ten frames than a hundred wrong ones.

Why buy glasses from an optometrist’s boutique instead of online?

Online frames arrive in a box, sized to a photo. Ours are measured to your face and your prescription by people who can adjust them on the spot. Pupillary distance, optical centers and progressive fitting heights are taken in person, and the frame is chosen with your lens thickness in mind — the detail that decides whether a strong prescription looks slim or heavy.

You also try frames on in real light, with someone honest beside you. Your prescription is on file with the team that examined your eyes, and if anything feels off once you start wearing them, you simply come back in.

Do you carry prescription and non-prescription eyewear?

Both. Every frame in the boutique can be fitted with your prescription, and we carry prescription and non-prescription sunglasses along with accessories to complete your purchase. Photochromic lenses such as Transitions turn a favorite frame into sunglasses outdoors, and many patients keep a second pair for driving or the office.

We also fit specialty eyewear for people whose work or hobbies ask more of their glasses: sports glasses, safety eyewear, computer glasses, color-blind glasses and protective eyewear.

Frequently asked questions

Do I need an appointment to look at designer frames?
No. You can stop into our Old Forge or Clarks Summit boutique during office hours and browse. If you need a new prescription, book an eye exam and we will fit your frames the same visit.
Can you put my prescription in designer frames?
Yes. Nearly every frame we carry can be made with your prescription, including progressives. Our specialists check that the frame’s size, shape and depth work with your lenses so you get the look you want and the clearest vision.
Can I use my vision insurance toward designer frames?
Many vision plans include an allowance toward frames and lenses. Our staff can help verify your benefits before your visit so you know what your plan covers.
What if my glasses stop fitting well?
Bring them in. Frames loosen and shift with daily wear, and a quick in-person adjustment usually restores the fit. Ongoing adjustments are part of buying your glasses from us.
