About Our Team

Our vintage neon sign has been hanging over our establishment for over 60 years. Our commitment to quality eyewear and professional service, like our sign, hasn't changed over the years either. It is also a landmark icon in the Delaware County area. 
We guarantee to make the lightest, thinnest and simply the best eyewear. William J. Curran & Son Opticians is the designer of the first rimless eyewear frame for children and has been rated "Best Opticians" by CheckBook magazine for the last 10 years.

Deciding on the 'Perfect' Frame Just Got Easier with the Help of Technology

Are you tired of not being able to see how sample frames look on you when purchasing eyeglasses?
