Eye care and eyewear in Mount Pleasant, South Carolina

Eye exams on one side, frames fitted by hand on the other

Two optometrists and a shop full of people who like fitting glasses, in two storefronts on Coleman Boulevard. Come in for an exam, come in for frames, or do both in one visit.

A pair of round wooden eyeglass frames rests on a wooden table.

Two doors, side by side

Pick the door that fits your day

The eye care door and the eyewear door open onto the same sidewalk and keep their own hours, so a Saturday frame fitting never waits on the exam schedule.
