EYEWEAR AND EYE CARE CENTER IN GREENSBORO, NC
Monday-Friday 10:00AM-6:00PM,

Oscar Oglethorpe is an independent optical boutique in more ways than one. Locally and independently owned, we’re free from the influence of major brands, and we source and sell exclusively independent frames we love. We believe in our own vision of what an eyewear retailer should be — a vision that has proven to be what our customers want from their optical shop, too.
Our team is as carefully vetted and selected as our frames, our optical technology and eye doctor provide truly individualized eye care, and with collections starting at $150 for frames with lenses, we can give you access to quality vision and distinctive style at a completely reasonable price.
Experienced Eye Doctor near You
Our eye doctor, Melissa Heisler, O.D., isn’t just conveniently close to where you live — she’s experienced, knowledgeable, and invested in your eye health and vision. Everyone at Oscar Oglethorpe, from Dr. Heisler to our opticians and office staff, understands the importance of clear vision when it comes time to purchase your next pair of eyeglasses.
