What our
customers say
These glasses are made from recycled and recyclable materials, come in just about every colour you can think of, and you can mix and match them however you like. Oh, and they’re super affordable! But honestly, the best part? The service. Richard is always so helpful, and Nafisa was absolutely amazing today—seriously, they make the whole experience so easy and fun!
Easiest eyeglass purchase ever. I’ve been buying glasses from Dresden for years. Amazing product. Super convenient. Can’t be beat.
I’m a longtime customer of Dresden. They never disappoint. Great product, great value, great service and regular promotions.
Dr. Andrew is very professional and patient. Did my eye exam & contact fitting here. Also had my glass done previously as well.
Walked into the location on Queen St., East with zero expectations. The staff was absolutely incredible. I’m sorry I can’t remember his name, but he was great answered all my questions gave me some time to check out My options helped me make some decisions and then it only took about 10 minutes and I had a fresh pair of prescription distance glasses as well as, non-prescription sunglasses! Highly recommend and I will definitely be back for different frame colours in the near future.
I have received excellent service at the Riverdale location, treated me with kindness and sincere desire to help me problem solve and meet my complicated needs. This company is awesome, providing fun options that are healthy for the planet and our pocket books - the way all things could be. I am so grateful.
Best eyeglass experience for me in Toronto. I’m clumsy with glasses and love that my Dresden glasses never break apart. Great glasses and great service!
Easy to order - great pick up service as always. Richard also helped me with my contact lense prescription and order. Sunglasses were amazing. I love Dresden 😊
