Pros
- Vintage and luxury options
- Affordable options
- Well-designed
- Vision checking available
- Online store available
Cons
- Some glasses & lenses may take a while to be made
New China Opticians provide a variety of eyewear options at affordable prices. Some of the services and products they offer include vision checking, glasses fitting, sunglasses, spectacle frames, designer glasses, and vintage glasses.
One of the best things about this shop is that customers are able to purchase a pair of new glasses (frame and lens) for only $60 or less.
We also appreciated the quick turnaround time for lens replacements and repairs — some glasses can be ready in as little as 20 minutes.
It also provides simple vision-checking services for customers who aren’t sure what kind of lenses they need.
In addition to the shop, New China Opticians also has an online store. For customers who are too busy and prefer their glasses delivered, this is a perfect option.
Although mostly affordable, the shop also boasts of having vintage and luxury options, and good quality glasses in different price ranges. If you’re unsure of what you’re looking for, the shop’s staff can help you find what you need.
Unfortunately, when we visited, we noticed that it can be a bit cramped and crowded. The more expensive and high-quality lenses can also take a while to get produced so it might be difficult to wait around in such a cramped area.

Pros
- Specialized customer service
- Meticulous staff
- Membership benefits
- Special frame for kids
- Discount promos
Cons
- Small store
- Long wait time for repairs
Mimeo Optical offers a wide range of services and products, including vision checking, frame fitting, lens fitting, single vision lenses, progressive lenses, and frames.
It prides itself on working with well-known lens brands to offer its customers some of the best deals in Singapore, including very affordable prices for lens replacements.
After visiting Mimeo Optical, we commend the shop’s friendly and professional staff. They were helpful, suggesting different types of lenses and easily explaining how each lens differs from one another.
Aside from the customer service and the affordable options, we also appreciate Mimeo’s membership benefits. If you become a member, you get discounted frames, lenses, and even checkups.
If you don’t want to be a member, it’s not a huge problem because you can still get discounted products whenever the shop has special promos. These promos usually happen at least once a month so it’s not difficult to get a good deal.
There are also special frames for children that are comfortable to wear and don’t easily break. Kids can be rowdy — but luckily, these frames are sturdy enough to withstand a few drops.
The only drawbacks of this shop are the long wait times for repairs and the small location.

The shop prides itself on its ability to create perfectly fitted eyewear for everyone, despite the wide variety of facial structures.
It also specializes in customizing nose pads, which can greatly improve the comfort and fit of eyeglasses. This is not a service that is widely known or offered by other optical shops.
We love the modern designs and great customizations offered by the shop. We are also glad to tell you that many of their products are good for kids and teens
The service is also wonderful as the staff is good at helping customers with specific needs. They can explain the differences between the products without making things too complicated.
A potential downside to consider when visiting Fortyseven Lab is that it may not offer as many other services beyond customizations.
The shop focuses mainly on fitting and customization. So if you need your eyes checked comprehensively, this may not be the establishment for you.
