Sydney's independent home for designer eyewear.
Many of the world's best eyewear houses in one Paddington shop, with optometrists who fit what they sell. Each collection is hand-picked in small numbers, then fitted and adjusted on site by the people who chose it.

Frames are the easy part. Fitting them to your face and your prescription is why a boutique still beats a shopping cart.
Faces, not sizes
Bridge width, tilt, temple length. Every frame is adjusted to your head before you leave, and again whenever it slips.
Lenses edged here
Our lens lab is on site, so most single-vision glasses are cut to the frame the same day by the people who sold it to you.
A real eye test
Retinal photography, glaucoma and macular checks, for driver's licences and everyday eye health. What's involved.
We stay with it
Complimentary comfort-and-fit checks for the life of your eyewear: cleaning, alignment, screws and nose pads.
