Their original location was on Portland Street on the corner where the Taxi company is now and then they were in MicMac Mall for a number of years and now in their new home on Baker Drive. The one thing that hasn't changed is the customer service is fantastic. Helpful, professional, and informed. This is a family run business with Ray and Kathy Dickens still running the show. Their son Greg and the rest of the capable staff continue the service level that I've come to know for the over 35 years I've been getting glasses from them.

On July 29th of this year I took my glasses into Bedford Eye Care because one of the arms was about…read moreto fall off. I was told the frame was actually broken and a new frame needed to be ordered. The glasses were given back and I was told I would hear from them within a week. On August 6th I called and was told the frames were not in. By this time one of the arms had fallen off and the other arm was hanging by a thread. On the 13th of August I called and, once again, the frames were not in. I no longer could wear the glasses as both arms had now fallen off. I was experiencing headaches from straining my eyes. Kathleen, the person I spoke to on the phone, suggested I come in to see what they could do for me. I went in and met with Leslie. She was a lifesaver! She searched for a suitable pair of frames that my lenses would fit into. I could use these while I waited for the new frames to arrive. It was a lengthy process but she eventually found a pair. Leslie assured me she would look into the whole situation and two days later I was back in and Leslie had my new frames. She quickly replaced the lenses and I was good to go. I can't thank Leslie enough for everything she did to rectify the problem. I was so impressed with her professional manner and her determination to turn a very negative situation into a positive outcome. It's individuals like Leslie that have customers returning to Bedford Eye Care. Catherine Spears

I've been putting off seeing the optometrist for years, and after finally breaking (it's getting…read moredifficult to read at school) I couldn't be happier with the service I recieved at Ocean. The staff were incredibly welcoming and knowledgeable, I even got to have a great eye conversation (I'm a neiroscience student) while looking at my eye exam photos. Very intelligent and friendly people! The price of the glasses themselves was a bit high; however, if I'm going to get glasses that I feel good about, quality is important! And Ocean has top quality frames and lenses. I'm a happy customer, and feel much better about the whole four-eyes transition!

On May 16, 2026, I had an eye appointment at Ocean Optometry. This was my first eye exam in 15…read moreyears. Examination noted I need glasses for reading, computer, and distance. I had my frame for glasses; therefore, would only need to buy one frame. I met with Ali Patton, Student Optician, for purchasing a new Coleman (Salt) frame and discussing options for both pair of glasses. I wanted a reading only lens so that I could enjoy reading without adjusting my gaze or the book. The second pair would be for computer and distance. Ali Patton agreed. Total cost for one new Frame and lenses for both glasses was $1522.74. In June, when the reading glasses came in, I was disappointed because when I moved my head up a bit, the image was not as clear. I was told you just have to get use to it. When I picked up the glasses in June for computer and distance, I met with Manager Alicia Austin. When I tried the glasses, the font on the computer and iPhone was very smaller. Smaller than the glasses I wore for 15 years. When looking for distance, I had to tilt my head down to see distance. Alicia advised me that computer and distance cannot be on the same lens. I advised her that is something the student optician should have known. Alicia said she will do Progressive lenses to correct the error. Approximately 60 days later, I still had not received the new lenses. Staff told me the lenses had not come in yet. Only to find out that Alisha had been out of office and no one was dealing with the issue. When Alicia got back to me, she stated she enlarged the lens. I met with her and the issue with the distance was corrected. However, the font was still small and there did not appear to be any progression in the lens. She enlarged the top part for distance where I no longer have to tip my head down to see in the distance. When she said she enlarged the top portion, there was no progression or change to lower portion. Again, I was advised to give them a try. I am using my reading glasses. However, the progressives are now basically only for distance, If I want to use the progressives (which I don't think they are progressives), on my computer or iPhone, I have to increase the text size on both. I called Alicia and expressed my concerns re lens not being strong enough. She said they check that sort of thing and they are the same. However, the lens on the reading glasses is thicker than the other pair. She said she could change the lens for computer only but I would not have the distance. I did not take her up on that offer because my glasses from 15 years ago are better than what they provided with two pairs of glasses. I also did not trust that Ocean Optometry could do the changes properly. I am extremely frustrated as my first appointment was on May 16th and picked up second pair on August 20th and still do not have proper glasses. I asked Alicia for my prescription so I could get a second opinion. She did not send them to me. So after three months of this, I have basically paid $1522.74 for reading glasses. This was the worse experience I ever encountered on a professional level. I did a deep dive into AI re negative reviews on Ocean Optometry, and I am not the only one who had an issue with lenses not improving vision. There were also other negative reviews. Based on my experience with Ocean Optometry, I cannot recommend them.
