Disappointing At Best – I like the Doctor. But I wouldn't order glasses or contacts from them. The staff makes you feel like they're doing you a favor letting them check your eyes. I've been ordering from them for years because I worked in the building. I actually need contacts now. If the last time I ordered the woman behind the counter warned me my prescription was set to expire, I would have gone in for an exam. Instead they tell me when I need new ones and are all snippy about it.

Worst service, rude receptionists, hard-selling on frames – I can't comment on quality of exam or selection of glasses, but the service was just awful. At first, my wife went to get glasses, her prescription was incorrect and they refused to fix it. She ended up paying $100 for new lenses with correct prescription to change in the existing frame (after StudioOptix was paid by insurance). They also gave a runaround for appointments after payment was made, making up fake excuses why doctor is out. After that, I cancelled my ap... read more

Best Eye Dr. in NYC! – Having dry eyes and astigmatism I went everywhere in the city to attempt to be fit with contact lenses. Well. I finally found the best Eye doctor in Nyc,,,Dr. Mitch Cassel. He has very high tech equipment and immediately evaluated my eyes to prescribe a fabulous soft contact lens that I can now finally wear!. The staff could not have been nicer and the service was excellent! I had my soft contact lenses the same day as they have a very large inventory. The price was very competitive , but I would defin... read more

great experience – As I have just moved to New York, I found myself desperately needing a reliable new eye doctor. One of my co-workers suggested Dr. Cassel and Studio Optix, so I gave them a try & she was right. Not only was the staff funny and able to fit me for contact lenses and a pair of glasses that I could not have been more pleased with, but they were also flexible. When I requested an evening appointment, I recieved no objection whatsoever. I highly recommend Dr. Cassel & the staff at Studio Optix.

horrible horrible service!! – I waited more than 3 weeks for my contact lens, I called them, they answered with "no information from your insurance company yet". After one week, I called them, still replied to me with the same answer. Then I called my insurance company, I found out actually they just faxed my prescription a few days ago!!!!!! unbelievable!!!!!!!!

Awful Service - forget it – Repair done very quickly and professionally. However, the young spanish woman at the front-desk is EXTREMELY RUDE. Simply ignored me for close to 10minutes - various phone calls, typing away on the computer - not even any eye contact. She'd be fired in my business. Go elsewhere.

great doc, terrible staff – Great doctor and a very convenient location if you work in midtown, but the staff is unprofessional and unbelievably rude.

high tech optics – Daughter needed contact lenses and glasses and was recommended to Studio Optix by a friend. Wow!!! What a find, as the doctor took the time to help properly fit her with disposable contact lenses using equipment right out of Star Wars...very high tech and accurate! She loved the doctor and was instructed with the care of the lenses by a very professional staff. Very busy office but I could see why - this is the place! I also picked out some eyewear from a very extensive inventory that was very unusual and ... read more

best optical store i've seen – was visiting ny, lost glasses and the concierge recommended studio optix. not only was i impressed with the service (both the optician and doctor were very helpful in making sure i was properly taken care of) but the eyeglasses were at another level of selecting. i could never find this stuff in my hometown. made me realize what i should be wearing, i got rave reviews from my friends (we are planning on all going back). professional reasonable and friendly service. definitely plan on going back... read more
