Independent and designer eyewear, chosen with care
We choose every frame for its design, how well it's made, and how comfortably it fits, not for a familiar logo. You'll find sculptural shapes from Veronika Wildgruber, polished, jewelry-inspired frames from Chopard, lightweight titanium from Blackfin, quiet Japanese metalwork from KameManNen, feminine statement pieces from Catherine de' Medici, and bold color from L.A. Eyeworks.
For sun, we carry prescription-ready sunglasses from Maui Jim and Porsche Design. Our collection changes as new pieces arrive and others find their owners, so the best way to see it is with a stylist who knows what's in the boutique today.
See all of our eyewear makersA personal stylist, one-on-one
Your complimentary 45-minute styling visit is time set aside just for you. We start with how you live: your work, screens, reading, driving, travel, and what you've loved or disliked in past glasses. Then your stylist brings a short, thoughtful selection of frames to you and explains why each one works for your face, coloring, and prescription.
There's no wandering a wall of frames on your own, and no pressure to buy. You'll see clear lens pricing before you decide, and you only pay for the frames and lenses you choose.

Bring the prescription you already have
Outside prescriptions are always welcome. Bring a current copy of your eyeglass prescription and the glasses you wear now, and we'll take care of the rest: frame fit, lens recommendations, measurements, and the final adjustment when you pick up your new pair.
Read more about how outside prescriptions work.
Progressive lenses, planned with your frame
If you wear progressives, or are ready for your first pair, we plan the frame and the lens together. We adjust the frame to your face first, then take your fitting measurements in that frame, so the reading, computer, and distance areas sit where you need them.
Learn more about progressives in designer frames and why some progressive lenses cost more.
Insurance and payment
Insurance isn't required to shop with us. We accept all insurance plans out of network and file the claim for you. We collect payment up front, and any reimbursement comes from your insurance company and depends on your plan. Complete pairs start at $500.
Welcoming neighbors from across West Austin
We welcome clients from all around Austin, including our Westlake neighbors. Davenport Village is an easy stop on Loop 360, and we're glad to welcome you.
