Customer's reviews

Five stars all around for Artisan Optical! From the moment I walked in, I felt genuinely welcomed. The shop itself is charming, and the adorable shop dog was such a sweet and unexpected bonus that instantly made the experience even better. The eye doctor was incredibly thorough and patient, making sure to answer every single one of my questions. He took the time to explain each step of the process and clearly walked me through everything he was seeing, which made me feel informed and completely at ease. I’ve been to many eye doctors over the years, but he has quickly become a personal favorite. I truly cannot recommend him or Artisan Optical enough an outstanding experience from start to finish. ~ Mary
This store is nothing short of AMAZING! The customer service and frame selection are among the best you will find in Colorado! They only carry independent brands and they know how to fit them. Alicia is a master in the craft and can take one look at you and come up with multiple options that are perfect! As a major eyewear collector, I didn't think I had many if any gaps in my collection, but Alicia found a few and immediately filled them with some awesome new frames! Additionally, I had been questioning a prescription I received from another optician, so Dr Jensen did a quick (unscheduled) exam and confirmed they were correct. You just rarely find service this outstanding. If you are on the hunt for your next glasses that will draw tons of compliments, this should absolutely be on your short list of places to visit! ~ Seth F
Chose Artisan Optical on a whim, my previous optician stopped doing eye exams since i went to them last. Artisan Optical is a wonderful duo I was seen by Dr. Jensen and he took great care of me. I'm a curious person, and asked a bunch of questions regarding my optical health which he answered with care and depth. Alicia was a wonderful person to chat with, and she handled helping choose a pair of frames, I'm recently out as trans-femm and wanted help deciding frames to help me feel more correct in myself. She did a wonderful job helping me choose beautiful frames that fit my price range. They're both wonderful people and I will be going back each time I need to re-up on contacts or for my yearly. ~ UltraViolet V
