I warmly recommend this store. The optician, a very kind lady, did a repair on my broken glasses for free, although I was just a drop-in customer. The repair was not simple, it took around 15 minutes, jet this lady put other work aside until I was served. My visit to the The Lensmaker Optical was a most pleasant experience.
