241 Optical

I absolutely love the glasses I got here -- I wear them virtually every day, even though I have contacts. There are lots to choose from, and the owners are super laid-back and not pushy like I have sometimes experienced at other glasses' places. The whole shopping experience was wonderful, and my glasses arrived quickly and in perfect condition. Highly recommended! Pros: beautiful frames and super-friendly owners Cons: none! more

Large selection of great glasses, the latest high quality of lenses, very good prices, and most importantly exceptional service. The owners are very friendly and really help with the right selection of glasses without being pushy at all. And when my glasses broke (twice) they replaced them free of charge and with a big smile. Thank you so much. Pros: best more

I got two pairs of glasses (for the price of one) and absolutely love them!!! The store owner really helped me pick a great pair for my face and I got it in two colors! Great service, great frames, great price :) Pros: Two pairs for the price of one! Cons: None! more

2 4 1 Optical offers the best deal around town with two pairs for the price of one, and their frames are really stylish and modern. A lot of the ads you see on TV for 2 for 1 glasses are always limited to the cheap, ugly pairs that no one wants anyway! They have so many great pairs to choose from, it was really difficult to narrow it down, and that is where the second pair free is really a bonus. \r \r This shop is run by a brother and sister team that really know their stuff when it comes to glasses. They were friendly and honest when helping me choose my styles. The glasses were ready when promised - which was in one day! That was a huge bonus that I wasn't expecting. I can't recommend 2 4 1 Optical enough - a great place to buy glasses in Harvard Square! Pros: Modern styles, fast service Cons: None that I found more
