The Good Stuff
Frame guidance
Staff help narrow down frames that suit the wearer, including a lightweight full-titanium rimless option and guidance for children.
Fast turnaround
Several reviews mention glasses being ready the next day or within two days, rather than taking over a week.
Progressive expertise
Reviews specifically mention personalised progressive lenses adjusted for reading, computer use and distance.
Children’s care
The team made a 9-year-old’s first glasses experience easier and more enjoyable, while another review mentions MyoCare lenses for children.
Aftercare
One customer says a new frame and lens set was measured and provided at no extra charge after the original glasses felt too heavy.
Discounts
Customers report affordable pricing and discounts, including one purchase of two frames and two glasses with a significant discount.
Tips for a Better Visit
Ask lenses. Ask the optician to compare lens options and explain how each suits your prescription or daily use.
Check weight. If you are sensitive to weight, mention it before ordering; one customer needed a new frame and lens measurement after their glasses felt heavy.
Confirm timing. Ask about the current completion time if you need glasses quickly; reviews mention next-day and within-two-day turnaround.
Bring insurance. If you are using insurance, ask the team to check coverage during the glasses or eye-test process.
Consider photochromic. For glasses used indoors and outdoors, ask about photochromic lenses; one review says they stay clear indoors and darken outside.
Ask kids options. For children, ask whether MyoCare lenses are suitable and allow time for frame selection and explanation.

The Bottom Line
EYECONIC Opticals in Al Barsha is an optical store and RTA-approved eye test centre for driving licences. You can have your eyes tested, choose prescription frames or sunglasses, and discuss lens types including photochromic lenses, progressive lenses and MyoCare lenses for children. Reviews repeatedly describe patient explanations and careful frame guidance rather than a rushed sale.
The eye-test feedback is specific: one customer praised the explanation of examination results while dealing with a very high prescription, and another said the correct axis was checked. For progressive lenses, a long-term customer said the fitting was considered for reading, computer use and distance. Parents may also appreciate the review from a 9-year-old’s first-glasses visit, which describes the process as easy and informative.
Turnaround can be quick, but ask for the current timing before ordering. Reviews mention glasses made within a day, next-day delivery and a two-day wait. Pricing is described as affordable, with customers mentioning discounts, though no exact currency prices are provided.
One caution is frame weight: a customer found Zeiss-lens glasses heavy, but says the team remeasured and supplied a new set at no extra charge. If you use insurance, ask the team to check your coverage during the visit.
