At Friedman Optometry, we know your time matters — and so does your vision. That’s why our Culver City office features a fully equipped on-site optical lab, allowing us to deliver same-day glasses with unmatched speed and precision.

If you’ve been searching for an “optometrist near me” who can combine expert care with quick service, our team is here to help.

How Our On-Site Lab Delivers Same-Day Eyewear

Our in-house lab allows us to begin crafting your glasses the moment your eye exam is complete. Your prescription is sent directly to our optical team, who use advanced digital edging equipment to cut, shape, and fit your lenses — right here in our Culver City office.

We offer:

  • Same-day service for most single-vision prescriptions
  • Fast turnaround for progressive and specialty lenses
  • In-house quality control from start to finish

Because we don’t rely on third-party labs, we can address and correct any issues immediately — ensuring your glasses meet our exacting standards for comfort, clarity, and accuracy.

Why Fast Doesn’t Mean Rushed

What sets us apart from big-box optical chains isn’t just speed — it’s precision. Our hands-on approach allows us to monitor the full lens production process. Every detail is inspected by experienced opticians before your glasses leave the lab.

You get the benefit of:

  • Efficient, expert craftsmanship
  • Reduced wait times
  • Personalized care with local service

When people look for the “best eye doctor in ”, they’re looking for this level of quality and convenience — and we deliver both.

Real Patient Story: Fast Glasses, No Missed Flight

One of our patients once broke their only pair of glasses just hours before a flight. Thanks to our same-day glasses service, we had a new pair ready that afternoon. They made their flight — and their day — without a hitch.

Stories like these are why our on-site lab matters. It’s not just about glasses. It’s about meeting your needs when it matters most.
