OTAGO OPTICAL LOCATION
633 Veerasamy Road
Facing Upper Weld Road

Jalan Besar, Singapore 200633
Our optical shop is at the ground floor of a HDB block, facing the small street Upper Weld Rd.
If you are coming from our old location at Chinatown, or from the east side, take the Downtown Line to Jalan Besar MRT.
All the MRT lines intersect near Rochor MRT so that should be the most convenient if you're coming from the rest of Singapore.

Notices:
Nothing, running as usual.
BUSINESS HOURS AND INFORMATION:
Getting new glasses?
Come in at least 45 minutes before the closing-time so that you have sufficient time to choose your frame and do the eye check.
If you wear contact lenses, you should remove them about one hour before the eye test to ensure accuracy of the prescription. If you prefer to come in with lenses, do note that you will have to rest your eyes after lens removal.
Do bring along your current pair of glasses too, as a reference point so we know how much your prescription has changed (and probably lament about getting old or using digital devices too much).

Gentle Notices:
Due to legal and operations reasons, we are not able to admit anyone under the age of 12.
An appointment is not a private viewing slot, as we may stack bookings to better serve customers who just need an adjustment or to collect their glasses. This hybrid system allows us to better schedule our customers' visits during peak hours and hence makes the most efficient use of time (so you can go about your day quicker too!).
We thank you for your patience if the store is busy.
Just a small business doing the best we can.
If the wait is long, go check out the area, maybe have a cup of teh tarik and watch the world go by.
Fortune favours the bold, and those who can find our brand new location. See you in store soon!
- Your trustworthy optical shop, giving you trendy quality glasses at affordable prices!
