The new OC Eye Designs Optometry combines exceptional eye care (from Dr. Alisa Wald in Costa Mesa since 1991) and a hip optical boutique environment with nearly 1,000 contemporary designer frames including David Yurman, Fendi, SALT, Roxy, Quiksilver and more.
Just for Greer’s OC readers, it’s offering a complimentary photograph of the back of the eye called retinal photography that can document, record and assist in the early detection of eye disease (a $39 value).
Also, stop in Wednesday, Oct 20. from 5 to 7 p.m. for a grand opening with wine tasting and appetizers while browsing the entire eyewear collections of Dolce and Gabbana, Salt, Lafort, David Yurman, Betsy Johnson and introducing Chanel eyewear. There will be a drawing to win designer sunglasses, fragrances, prescription lenses and great gift baskets. All attending will also receive a $50 credit toward eyewear (some restrictions apply).
