The Vision Parlor® | Independent Optician, Eyeglass Repair & Donations

ATTENTION (6-23-23):

Due to an unexpected turn of events which will require me to be on-call to tend to urgent and time-sensitive medical emergencies to care for my family who are terminally-ill, the office will be open by appointment only. Due to issues with patients no-showing after scheduling their appointments, I ask that you please be considerate and do NOT schedule an appointment and no-show as I have to make special arrangements to ensure proper care is arranged for my family. This optical is ran by just one person (me) so I apologize for the inconvenience and hope to still receive your support as I am still more than happy to see you in-office and process online orders around caring for my family. For fastest communication, please email or use the chat feature at the bottom right corner of your screen and I will get back to you as soon as possible. Please refrain from making phone calls as I am unable to be in the office to answer calls outside of appointments during this critical time. I appreciate your understanding.

-Licensed Optician, Owner

An Independent Optician, state licensed and registered dispensing optician (RDO), located within the USA - Downtown Auburn, CA offering concierge optician services. We also ship orders nationally.

We practice opticianry to the full capacity. We specialize in complex fittings, full customization, digital free-form technology, crafting eyewear and lenses, frame adjustments, testing, troubleshooting, ANSI inspections and eyeglass repairs.

We aim to be accurate and precise at fitting patients according to their face form, measuring patients, selecting the right manufacturer, correct lens material, coatings, and design out of thousands of options based on a patient's lifestyle, and crafting eyeglasses to the highest standard.

Our Optician has over 16 years of optical & optometric experience in Private Optometry, Retail Opticals, VA hospital serving veterans, manufacturing labs, and writing optician curriculums for college programs. She is nationally ABO certified and licensed as a registered spectacle lens dispenser.

All prescription glasses are custom and made to order here in the USA. We are 100% referral based and accept patients from all Optometrists and Ophthalmologists. We are NOT an online store. We are primarily a service-based optical practice for those with complex visual needs.

Patients who find us understand that their vision is not "one size fits all," especially those who compete professionally in sports, those with photophobia, autism, cerebral palsy, special needs, disabilities, and more.

Our vision is to help others see and feel better without compromising quality. We stand behind precise and quality manufacturing. We have partnered with the best labs in the industry based on lowest staff turnover % rate and lowest optician error % rates.

There are only a handful of independent optician locations left in the US and we are one of them. We want to earn your trust and confidence the honest and transparent way with exceptional patient care built with quality and compassion.

Appointments

We offer concierge style appointments where we provide an uninterrupted environment, as we only schedule one patient at a time. Our clientele requires more time for consultation than most due to the extent of frame and lens customization. We also accommodate those with disabilities by blocking off more time if requested.
