About Our Store

Cohen’s Fashion Optical has a rich history that began with Jack Cohen’s pushcart on Orchard Street in 1927. Over nearly a century, the business has evolved into a cornerstone of the Lower East Side community, now situated at the iconic corner of Orchard and Delancey Streets. From its origins as a modest street vendor to its status as a leading eyewear retailer, Cohen’s Fashion Optical has remained committed to providing quality products and services to its customers.

As the first optical store in New York City to introduce fashion frames, Cohen’s Fashion Optical has continually set trends and standards in the industry. Today, we boast an extensive collection of designer frames from renowned brands like Gucci, Ray-Ban, Tom Ford, Chloe, Versace, and many others. Whether you’re in search of the latest fashion trends or classic styles, Cohen’s Fashion Optical offers a diverse selection to suit every taste.

In addition to offering fashionable eyewear, Cohen’s Fashion Optical provides comprehensive eye care services, including eye exams conducted by expert optometrists. This commitment to quality vision care ensures that customers receive personalized attention and top-notch care for their optical needs.
