Main Line Optical…read more Kind of conjures visions of people in bespoke Zegna clothes, wearing Piaget chronographs, double parking their Bentley Roadsters on Lancaster Avenue, while they pick-up their diamond-encrusted , platinum sun glasses for the flight to West Palm. But, only if you haven't been there. When you walk through the door of the iconic Ardmore storefront, you are made to feel instantly welcome, thanks to the attentive, skilled staff. It's also a great sign when the Boss is there to greet you, warmly, as well. Rich, the owner/operator, who has been dedicated to serving people in this community since the 1980's, is an absolute treasure. He is honest, ethical, has a kaleidoscopic understanding of the optical industry and a deep concern for the customer's needs. There are psychiatrists and bartenders who could learn a lot about successfully interacting with their clientele from Rich. His pricing is more than fair, Especially, given the quality of the products and the value of the service that he and his team provide. I cannot tell you how many times that I have had a mishap ( meaning my fault ) with the stylish, durable glasses that I have purchased from Rich and when I have returned to the store for repairs, he has never once charged me. I believe that any successful retail enterprise is based on relationships between merchant and customer, in addition to the products and services provided. I will take Rich's word and his handshake over 50 warranties from most any other optical company with which I had done business before I came to Main Line Optical for the first time, about 25 years ago. So what's in a name? Not much. What's inside when you enter Main Line Optical? A great customer experience predicated on personal, ethical service, quality products and people you trust with something as important as your vision.

Dr. Marie, Sara, and Sandy were very professional and personal. I was impressed with my experience there and recommended my wife to go there too. A few weeks ago I went there again to get my contact lens exam and as always they were very nice and helpful. BTW they had a new member, April, and she is very helpful too! I did my exam and was given two weeks to try a new kind of contact lens, which did much better job to keep moisture. I went back and asked for some adjustment on my prescription and then I was given another two weeks to try that before I decided to buy. They didn't force me to order anything from them but I wanted to. I traveled a lot recently. Before my order arrived, they gave me some contact lens so I could use them for my trips. Today my order arrived but I couldn't get it as I came home late and their office will be closed this weekend. I'm flying out this weekend so I ask for help. They were so nice and were willing to drop the box on my patio. When I came home, saw my contact lens box sitting on my patio and a line of footprints in the deep snow, I decided to write this review to express my appreciation. This is definitely the go-to place I would recommend to anyone living around this area!!!
