We accept most insurance plans and offer a wide selection of exclusive, designer, and moderately priced frames and a full range of contact lenses. We are one of the only optical companies offering same day eye exam and glasses in NYC. We take pride in our ability to make complex and unusual prescriptions work with today's lighter frames and thinner lenses. Eye exams are carefully administered by our staff of New York State licensed optometrists who examine your overall eye health and then identify the best prescription for your glasses or contacts. Grand Central Optical is a family-owned and operated business, established in 1924. Since the very beginning, we have prided ourselves on the quality products we carry and our outstanding customer service. We accept most insurance plans.
