Autumn 1923. Rue Vignon in Paris’s Madeleine district. Louis Lafont sets up a small boutique selling hearing aids and spectacles. For three generations, the great-grandfather’s art deco spirit has set the standard when it comes to designing eyewear. Philippe, Louis’ grandson along with his Parisian fashion designer wife Laurence transforms spectacles into a genuine fashion accessory. The couple produced many innovative products and collaborated with major fashion houses such as Hermès and Chanel. This Paris institution now operates four boutiques under its own name and exports to over forty countries.

I got Optique Vision recommended by two people and what a great recommendation it turned out to be! At first I was planning on having an eye test only (very thorough eye test + some advice given, many thanks Alan) as I thought that buying frames there might be outside my budget but Maja helped me find something that I could afford and honestly, that girl has got a sixth sense! She knew what would suit me and suggested some amazing frames! I collected them today, perfect prescription and perfect fit! Can't be more pleased. Thank you to all the staff
The staff have been totally amazing with our daughter, who originally went for the Irlen screening. They are friendly, patient and really helpful. Taking time to find the style she was happy and confident with.
So impressed with the staff and service that we now have our son booked in.
Brilliant service and a team who genuinely care about you getting the right product for you. They also support independent brands and stock a great range of products that you wouldn’t see in more mainstream stores.
