East West Opticians

East West Opticians is located over in Sector 17, specifically at Sco 49 to 51. It’s a pretty decent sized space for a shop. We have the displays for all the frames on the walls and the equipment in the back for the testing. Sector 17 is always a hub of activity, so there’s a lot of window shopping happening. We see people from all walks of life popping in to see if their glasses can be fixed or if they need a new pair. The lighting in here is quite bright, which you need when you're looking at small screws and lenses all day. Sometimes the air conditioner makes a weird humming noise, but we’ve gotten used to it. We don’t do big sales pitches or anything like that. If your eyes are blurry, we just try to help you see better. It’s a simple process of picking out what looks okay on your face and making sure the lenses are right. We’ve got a couple of mirrors around the place that have been there since we opened. The floor is that old tile that never quite looks perfectly clean no matter how much we mop it. It’s just a regular local shop where we help people with their vision. We have been in this spot for years and the neighbors in the other sectors know us well. It is steady work and we like being here in the middle of everything.
