Soto’s Optical Boutique

| Jodi Schwarzenbach | ,

Good optics are everything, right?  I mean, if you cannot see something clearly, then what is the point of even looking.  And, “optics” can also mean how you are appearing to potential friends and clients.  You need your world to be clear, in every single aspect, so if you are having any sort of ocular issue, it is of the most paramount essence that you see a specialist.  You need your eyes to read, work, and to see your beautiful babies as they smile at you in the morning.  You know there are a host of ophthalmologists and retail locations to buy your glasses and eyewear.  But you demand the best for your set of baby blues or magnificent browns, whichever color you are sporting.  For those with the highest standards for their eyecare and stylish eyewear, only Soto’s Optical Boutique will do.

As “Sarasota’s hometown eyewear boutique,” Soto’s Optical has proudly served the surrounding area since 1949.  Located in the heart of Downtown Sarasota, this local business staple has amassed an incredible reputation for integrity, quality service, and the finest eyewear products available.  As a leader in the optics arena, Soto’s Optical Boutique provides its clientele with a truly custom experience, even fabricating all eyewear right onsite.  That is correct, why ship glasses off to have a third-party complete repairs or construction of one-of-a-kind eyewear?  The esteemed professionals at Soto’s Optical Boutique have the experience to make an exclusive product, just for you.

The eyewear collections found at Soto’s Optical Boutique match the exclusivity and luxury found within the Sarasota community.  Whereas Sarasota Opera sings to the trained ears of the musicophiles in the area, and The Ritz-Carlton caters to those wanting the best in luxury hotels, Soto’s Optical Boutique sets the standards in impeccable service and eyewear.  Store collections represent the absolute premiere lines in eyewear with names like Tom Davis, Savile Row, Vuarnet and Sama.  If your tastes reflect the upper echelon in most of your dealings, then you do not want to trust your vision and classic eyewear to a middle-of-the-road vision center.  In Sarasota, only Soto’s Optical Boutique can boast 70 years of custom eyewear, sun protection and accessories.  There is only one name synonymous with Sarasota’s class and elegance – – Soto’s Optical Boutique.  They are there for all your needs and are looking forward to serving Sarasota for another 70 years.

Having the privilege of being an industry leader for seven decades comes with a good deal of responsibility.  That is why the professionals at Soto’s Optical Boutique are careful about which organizations they endorse and engage with in business dealings.  They find the caring and experienced individuals at IBE to be a close match to the impeccable service they, too, provide.  That is why for employee recognition and repairs and services needed at their Main Street location, they turn to the handy IBE directory of participating merchants.  It seems if they have a need, IBE has a resource, something that bodes well for an established company that does not have the time to deal with amateurs.  They know if a business wants to be a part of an established, thriving bartering organization, they will turn their attention to International Barter Exchange.

So I lost my glasses made by De Soto when I was in the U.K. , I got Masha to make me a new pair and she posted them to the U.K. : today I went in to get them adjusted and she was beyond helpful; they may not be the cheapest optician but they are the most helpful and competent in Florida

Soto’s Optical on Main Street has A+ customer service. Two days after purchasing sunglasses there, I crushed them in an accident and the store personnel went above and beyond, working with the rep to provide a replacement pair at no additional cost. I highly recommend Soto’s.

I’m so glad I ventured in here quite a few years ago. Now I buy prescription glasses here with great frames, sun glasses and computer use glasses. Great people, great service!!

Wonderful experience and it had nothing to do with glasses.However my family will be getting our glasses here from now on. I brought a watch into the neighboring jeweler due to the face cover missing. The jeweler couldn't fix it, but suggested I speak to Soto to see if tbey could help out. To my surprise/pleasure, Ron cut a face and worked with the jeweler to reattach. He went above and beyond and I couldn't be more appreciative.
