What makes it a Rhody Gem?

At Opt Eyewear Boutique, experienced frame stylists offer a personalized approach to help customers choose the right frame from hundreds of options. “We are a locally owned family business that has been dedicated to providing the highest quality and latest styles of independent eyewear to the area since 2010,” says Jessica Leach, who co-founded the shop with husband Ted. “We don’t carry any of the brands you’ll find at the mall. The shop and staff are not only knowledgeable, but it’s a fun and relaxing atmosphere that leaves you looking great and seeing well.” Inside the luminous space, peruse eye-catching frames for the whole family, including collections from over a dozen companies including Robert Marc NYC, Vuarnet, Lindberg, and Very French Gangsters, an eyewear brand for style-forward children and teens.
