Dr.Lee really cares about you and is very nice!☺️ The eye exam is $65 if you are a Harvard student, compared to $200+ without insurance.

Harvard Square Eye Care is a great place in Cambridge to find in stock contacts. I walked-in and had an eye exam and had contact lenses to walk out the door with on the same day. My full supply of contacts arrived the next day so I picked them up right at The Harvard Square Eye Care in Central Square. Very convenient.

Good selection – Harvard Square Eye Care is a great place to go when looking for modern, and affordable eyewear. The selection is great. They had several selections of designers I hadn't seen elsewhere. I would recommed Harvard Square Eye Care to everyone.

I had been looking everywhere for a special pair of glasses – It was days before my wedding and I had broke my glasses that I was going to wear for my wedding. I had scrambled throughout the city, looking for the perfect pair of glasses, and ended up at Harvard Sq. Eye Care where I had landed on a wonderful pair of glasses, that were ready just in time for my wedding. I was thrilled with the customer service, affordability, and selection.

I have been going to the Harvard square location for a couple years and recently I called to make my appointment or a yearly eye exam but was having trouble finding a time that could fit my schedule. Then the receptionist informed me that they opened a new office in Central Square! This is awesome because central is way more convenient for me. The new office is super nice! The one in Harvard is usually busy with all sort of people bustling about but the central square office had a lot more open space and was very nicely deco... read more

very accommodating! – So I called HSEC in a panic because I was leaving the country in a week and I had just lost my glasses. I am practically blind without them so I am sure I sounded pretty hysterical in the phone. The woman on the phone was very patient with me and was able to fit me in at their central square office that day (did I mention it was a SATURDAY!?) She even pulled up my insurance benefits beforehand and deciphered them over the phone so I could understand them. Since I got there ridiculously early I browsed t... read more

simple repairs! – so, I was stretching late Friday night, and as i stretched, my glasses hit my knees and the frame got bent. (I was bending my torso over my knees while sitting with my legs in parallel to the ground.) So after dace class Saturday morning, I went looking around for an eye shop in Harvard square. I couldn't find any open stores that had a good price for the repair, and so I went home and did a little research. On the web, I found this store, and went to their Porter square branch. There, they staff was kind, ... read more

saturday saver! – I was visiting some old college friends in the city last weekend and we were at a pub saturday afternoon watching one of the womens world cup games. We were just getting up to leave when an angry england fan jumped off her stool unexpectedly and accidentally bumped me knocking my glasses right off my face! Well i'm completely blind and awkward without them so the first step i took was CRUNCH. Yup, i just stepped right on them. I began to freak out but right as i walked outside i saw a sign for Harvard Squar... read more

Great New Office! – I have been wearing glasses for 8 years and had always been too scared/nervous to make the transition from frames to contacts...Well within 5 minutes of walking into the central square office I felt like I had been a customer there for years! The doctor was really professional but also very comforting and down to earth. They gave me the most in depth eye exam I have ever had and explained everything in detail for me so that I could understand. They were very patient with me when explaining how to put in t... read more
