About Us

• Welcome to Real Eyes at Atlantic Avenue! From the humble beginnings of the 1970s, to the trendy 2000s, we have been at the forefront of eyewear design. The first iteration of Real Eyes was realized in 1976, directed by Lou Gross, Armed with a superb understanding of the human eye, he set out to create a store front that was based on the fashioned practicality of the eye lens. Nurturing the storefront with his expertise, he has created more than your average eyewear store. It has flourished into a confluence of style and substance: the store is adorned with a host of trendy, but practical, designs that are hip, smooth and multi-functional; those whose eyes are pathologically hindered can receive treatment (our doctors are trained to deal with cataracts, glaucoma, macular degeneration); and the store is a hotbed for cutting-edge eye care techniques. And though we pride ourselves on our polished fashion sense, our philosophy extends beyond appearance: we take great care into making sure that our eyewear serves a function-- that it actually fits your facial structure, and that it is accommodating and comfortable. And, perhaps the most important thing: our frames are for everyone, whether you want to pay $1,000 or $100, well take you by the hand and show you the available items that fit your budget. Here at Real Eyes, our Optometrist and the team created an inviting atmosphere for you to find what youre looking for, whatever that may be, so that you look great, feel great, and walk out knowing you had an awesome experience.
