Lim Seah Seng Optical - previously Lim Kay Khee Optical (Balestier)Optometrist in Balestier

“Went to fix my partners spectacles as it was very badly bent. The owner was very skilled and managed to fix the spectacles back in a few minutes. They also did it for free which we are very thankful for! The frame was previously brought from them and we did not regret it, the material is very durable and good, will be back for sure😊 (ps they have many fashionable frames as well)”

“Bent my spectacles out of shape the night before and came here, it was repaired within minutes. Highly recommend if you need your spectacles repaired quick. They also have a great variety of Charmant spectacles, like the one I am currently using that I bought from them a few years ago. Their pieces have alot of personality compared to those from chain stores.”

“I wish more people would frequent treasures such as these cos the shop owners are experts in their field and the prices are extremely reasonable. I love the history and the heritage behind their shop and they make spectacles so good that I find the glasses I make here are always so comfortable I wear them for years and years. I fear that one day they will close because the owners are elderly but in the meantime I will continue frequenting this shop and hope others will give them a try too.”

“Old is gold! The previous optical shop at balaestier road side have moved to Balestier point. With a history more than 30 years. They offer some unique vintage specs and sun glasses option. Just did my specs in the shop and share this treasure shop in Google!”

“I went to Lim Seah Seng to replace my spectacles bridge and I had a really great experience! It’s my second time coming here (but my first time at its new location at balestier point) and it’s really a hidden gem. The new place is super hip and aesthetic and could tell they put in a lot of effort in the design cos it looks great! Super vintage and retro vibes so I enjoyed just sitting there and looking around. The auntie was super welcoming and nice, she insisted that she do it for me for free, she also helped me to assess the condition of my specs and recommended me some new frames. She also told me about how she was working hard to support her husband who had a stroke and she takes days off to take care of him so would recommend everyone to come and support her (she works full days on tuesday and friday iirc). I’ll definitely be coming back to do all my glasses related things!!”
