Owl Optical of Minneapolis was founded by two lovebirds with a passion for exceptional eyeglasses and sunglasses. We scour design houses around the planet for the most exciting new trends and brands, and bring hand-crafted, amazing glasses right to Linden Hills. Unique colors, specialty fits, petite frames — we believe everyone has the right to be thrilled with what they’re putting on their face! Exercise your right to fabulousness and stop in for a free frame makeover. We offer full eye exams and optometrist services, crayons and toys for kiddos, and plenty of pint-sized eyeglasses too!
Thank you for professional service and warm reception in your shop. I adore my new glasses– the first pair you picked out for me!
