SVS Vision Optical Centers, Oak Park

SVS Vision Optical Centers' founders opened their first shop in Sterling Heights, Michigan, in 1974 to help the community clear up its vision. But even these optical gurus never foresaw their humble business expanding to more than 80 locations sprawled across 8 states. Today, each shop continues the tradition of providing quality eye care with an attentive staff and exams from seasoned optometrists.

After an exam, patients browse a large selection of the latest designer frames from brands such as Coach, Tiffany, Nike, Versace, or Ray-Ban. Additionally, with a U.S. laboratory and corporate headquarters in Mt. Clemens, Michigan, SVS Vision also offers a signature line of EyeDef lenses. The lenses, which are customized to fit each client's lifestyle, comes with a 45-day "Gotta Love ‘Em Guarantee." Once clients pick the right eyewear, the staff then fits the stylish selection with polarized and scratch-protected prescription lenses to help guests see clearly. Most of SVS Vision Optical Centers' frames can also hold sunglass lenses as well, eliminating squinting during summer months and tropical vacations.
