I had an expensive pair of sunglasses with a broken frame that caused a lens to fall out. I thought I'd have to throw them out, but recalled years ago that Michael at EYEGLASS REPAIR at 141 Vassar St in Reno,NV rehabilitated prescription eye glasses, so I took my broken dark glasses to EYEGLASS REPAIR and was gratified Michael was able to promptly make an affordable repair saving my glasses! read more

The guy took 3 weeks after stating it would be one week. He only takes cash. He doesn't return calls much. Finally, at time of pick up, he demanded more cash than originally stated, and became defensive & angry when I stated I was told $50. read more

7/11/25- When one has new lenses made and has them inserted in an older frame .. one feels great! Just my luck the arm breaks and there goes $$$ out the door.. However, I lucked out because my optometrist had a business card for repair- It's best to call and schedule an appt. Unfortunately, the frame could not be repaired-.. Luckily, he was able to insert in almost identical frame.. Be patient as this is a much needed service with lots of people needing repairs.. Thanks for saving my new lenses .. And for the cool new frame! read more

Michael at Eyeglass Repair was really friendly and helpful, and did an great job repairing my glasses. I came in on the Friday before Christmas to drop them off after an unfortunate event broke them at the base of one of the arms. When I came in, he looked them over, told me his plan to fix them, took down my information, and told me he was working through a backlog but would try to have them done by the Tuesday before Christmas. It was late Tuesday when he updated me that they were done, so I (understandably) wasn't able to pick them up until the Friday after Christmas. The repair is seamless and they fit perfectly. The price was also fair! If not for a bit of glue residue, you wouldn't even notice anything happened. He seems to really know his stuff, and I hope the repair holds for a while to come. Hopefully I won't need another repair, but I'll definitely come back to see Michael if I did! read more

I have been going here for years & always had a great experience. Michael works wonders with the repair & is very kind.

Michael is very knowable about eyewear both fitting of eyewear and repair. He has some really cool frames including a line he made himself. He repaired several of my favorite glasses and now I'm eyeing a frame he made for my next pair. Thank you! read more

I had a pair of glasses that broke a year ago and I tried everything to fix them. I brought them here and Mike fixed them! I was so happy they were my favorite glasses. Until I found a pair here I fell in love with. I've always had a hard time finding glasses I like. But when I came in they had so many pairs for me to try on. They found the right ones to compliment my face and features. I feel so confident in my new glasses! This is my new favorite spot to get glasses!! read more

Eyeglass Repair - Window - Eyewear & Opticians Near Me - Reno, Nevada

My brother and I dropped off his sunglasses before going to Europe in August. The glasses needed a new nosepiece built. We prepaid and left.The plan was for me to pickup the glasses when they were finished and send them to my brother who lives in Alaska. After waiting 8 months, I went by the shop twice during business hours and no one was there. I called and left a message and when the owner returned my call, he told me that he hadn't done any work and the glasses would be done in 3 days. Unfortunately, I was sick and didn't make it in. The owner called 3 weeks later to say the glasses were done so I went right down there to pick them up. When I walked in, he was playing the guitar in a side room and was cussing. I told him why I was there. I gave him my brother's name and then realized that the glasses were actually under my name since my brother lives so far away. I asked the owner to confirm that the $50 was prepaid. He told me that I needed to pay the $50. I called my brother immediately and he confirmed that he paid in August. Then the owner told me he never has clients prepay. I told him that I wasn't a deceitful person. After going back and forth, he gave me the glasses and asked me to pay for them if I remembered that I owed him. Then he told me how hard the job was. As far as I'm concerned, he should have refunded the $50 after taking 8 months to complete a job that he said would take 3 days. In addition, I don't appreciate being accused of dishonesty when he clearly was very disorganized and uses sticky notes as records for confirmation of payment. To boot, the glasses were dirty and sticky. I'll never use this place again. After owning 2 businesses for over 20 years, I'd be destitute if I treated my customers like that. Shame on you. read more

Michael is a life saver! We were a walk-in on a Friday, so I wasn't sure if we would get our daughter's glasses repaired before going on Vacation the next day! Well, he did it! And we were so grateful. He's professional and kind. And I cannot thank him enough for saving us. The price was very reasonable. I'd say too reasonable, as it was a big ask. I would highly recommend this place for eyeglass repair. read more

Mike is lifesaver! I broke my glasses while traveling through Reno and he did a fantastic job welding them back together. They are better than new. In addition to fixing he was able to expedite the service so I could catch my flight in time. All around excellent job!!! Thanks for your kindness and expertise. read more

Was able to repair titanium nose piece back on glasses and do rush job in 1hour. Excellent job

Couldn't be happier with the service I received by Mike at Eyeglass Repair. Quick turnaround and super knowledgeable. I'm glad to have found this shop. 10 out of 10 would recommend. read more

Michael is the best. Fixed my persols and Tom fords very quickly. I had an international flight in 2 days. He was able to fix one of my pairs right then and there. My persols circular frame and leg were completely broken. Lens fell out. Fixed very nicely. He's able to put prescription lenses in a new pair of Tom fords I got too. Great work. Highly recommend. read more

Tried to shop local--but local also needs to compete. This outfit is extremely overpriced. We have some nice looking frames that needed a temple (the part of the eyeglasses that hooks above your ear) Mike quoted me $40.00, and 10 days... We searched, and found a online source who did the temple replacement for $15.00 read more

Much more than just an optical repair shop. Owner Mike is a licensed optician who has his own lens lab and can specialize in all types of RX lenses. Offers cool eyewear also. He handled a very difficult RX for me and it turned out beautifully. Very fair pricing, too. read more

I was referred to Mike's shop by another Optometry practice that couldn't repair my broken eyeglasses. For him it was, "No problem, I can fix these...it might take a couple days." And just as he stated, he repaired the frames...perfectly! He is professional and highly knowledgable (understatement) while communicating clearly with his can-do attitude! I returned to order some new lenses from him and he did a perfect job with them as well! He also carries a great selection of frames and sunglasses. If you're seeking someone who can mate the correct RX with your fames, I recommend that you visit Mike at his shop on Vassar Street. He's the best around! read more

I am new to this area and this shop came up on yelp. It was a great experience for me and I can hardly wait to get my eyeglass prescription filled here. HE IS NOT JUST A REPAIRMAN!!! Super nice-quick repair-very reasonable. Thank you read more

yes just got my glasses back and he did an amazong job would go back again and trying to finish

New glasses and NO hassel. Thank you for the new frames, the easy check out, and costs were on point.

Mike is very professional and did a wonderful job in fixing 2 pairs of sunglasses that I thought were goners, but he worked his magic!

My hi index glasses broke, and where my optometrist couldn't fix, Eyeglass Repair did! Grateful that I didn't have to throw my expensive glasses out, and can still have a back up pair. Even got my other back up pair adjusted. Highly recommended! read more

I dropped my glasses off last Thursday and was told they would be ready Monday or Tuesday. Well next Friday rolls around and had not heard back. It was Friday before Memorial Day and I really needed them back. So I tried calling several times during business hours, he finally answer the phone around 1030 and said he was up at Tahoe and they would be ready later. He called me about 1230 telling me they were ready so I drop everything at work to drive down. Well guess what, they were not ready, had to wait another 10 minutes. Finally they were ready and was ready to pay, but he DOES NOT ACCEPT CREDIT CARDS! Would that not have been useful information before I got here? Not very professional! Never again! Ps they are not fixed right! read more

Came in because my garrett leight glasses were slightly off on quality. They were fixed in 1 minute and am now very happy with them. On top of that he did it for free because it was such an easy fix. Super cool shop and incredibley cool dude who obviously knows a lot about glasses. Will be returning here for any glasses related subject 1000%. read more

My 18 month old son decided to grab and subsequently rip off one of the ear pieces, breaking the hinge, right before we were going to go on vacation. I figured any larger glasses shop was going to have to send my glasses out for repair, which would end up taking two weeks, and probably cost me anywhere from $100 to $200. So after looking on Yelp, I found Eyeglass Repair, showed up first thing in the morning, and dropped my glasses off with Michael. He was super friendly, and even though the break on my glasses was pretty bad, he said he would try his hardest to get them fixed since I was going on vacation. Luckily he was indeed able to get them fixed before we left, they look great, and I was able to have them on my trip. I can not recommend this place enough; fast, friendly, and well priced, there is really no reason to go anywhere else. read more

Eyeglass Repair - Glasses before taking them to Eyeglass Repair - Eyewear & Opticians Near Me - Reno, Nevada

I took my broken eye glasses there Friday He told me will be ready the following Wednesday Went there Store was closed Came back there again Friday my glasses was just setting in the box untouched Then he proceeded to work on my glasses in a rush Then he told me to come back the following Monday I told him we live 130 miles away and l am blind partially without my glasses it took him 30 min to fix it came back 2 hours later to pick up my glasses. unprofessional No phone calls from him I have to call him for status of my eye glasses So disappointed other than that he fix my glasses well for $60 bucks!! read more

Michael is the eyeglass repair wizard. He fixed the broken temple on my friend's frame....something her usual optician said could not be done. And, with a same-day turnaround as she was visiting from out of the area. The $40 charge was reasonable and saved her the much higher cost of buying new glasses. Highly recommend! read more

Mike is definitely a craftsman, and can fix glasses when it seems like there is no way of salvaging them. His prices on lenses are also very competitive!!! Don't waste your money on lenses at the big retailers - go to Mike and I bet he'll save you a nice chunk of cash! His hours of work are a bit odd though and he's not the best communicator on the phone read more

Best place. I've had my sunglasses five years thanks to this guy! Fixes them so fast and my glasses looks brand new and last another beating read more

My glasses were fixed pronto. great work, great service, and I couldn't be happier with the result.

Mike was really nice, but doesn't communicate very well! After two weeks I finally decided to call and he said to call him back around 1pm. I did and he said he would call me back in 15 minutes. He called me back and said my glasses came out great! So he had my glasses for 2 weeks and could have repaired them in 15 minutes!! Very frustrating especially since I was using an old pair. read more

This was our first time visiting Eyeglass Repair. After 2 mins of walking into this place we knew we were in the right place. There was a line of at least 5 in front of us. Mike talked to each customer with the same energy, enthusiasm, care, and respect to find out their problem. At first you're thinking, ok, let's move this along but after realizing what's happening you can't ignore the amazing customer service and attention to detail that he's absorbing and in return putting out. He's like the (this is meant as a compliment) Willy Wonka of eye glass repair. If you need an eye glass repair this is the place that should be on your short list of where to go. The price is also right! My husband, kids, and I have always worn glasses and I hate that this is the first of me knowing about this small brick building filled with such eyewear magic! read more

He adjusted my glasses for me.... this is where you need to go to get your eyeglasses or sunglasses repaired. He's fast and he does an excellent job. I will b going bk soon. read more

I'm from out of State, Was in Reno for Hot August Nights, the first night there the Bridge on My glasses broke in half. I contacted Mike the next day, he was able to replace the Bridge on the glasses. I was in at 11, glasses repaired by 4, at a fair price. Thanks Mike read more

I have been going to this wonderful person for years and I was so happy to see he was still operating, because, to me, he is the best place to get your glasses repaired. He fixed my glasses better than my eye doctor would have and adjusted them to stop sliding down my nose, something my eye doctor was unable or would not spend the time fixing. read more
