Since 1946, Kennedy & Perkins Guild Opticians has been a locally-owned and family run optical business, providing greater New Haven and shoreline area residents with state of the art optical lens technology and distinctive and exclusive fashion eyewear and contact lenses. Each pair of eyeglasses is personally crafted by a trained optician in our New Haven central lab. Our professionally trained frame stylists help choose the perfect fit, shape, and color for your own personalized look. Each Kennedy & Perkins store features eye examinations by an independent doctor of optometry. Kennedy & Perkins has been voted the best optical store in New Haven County for the last 10 years by the New Haven Advocate. An article in the Advocate's "Best of New Haven" sums up Kennedy & Perkins philosophy: "Icons of eye-catching eyewear, the family owned, 60 year old Kennedy & Perkins offers complete optical services, including contact lenses and prosthetic eyes, at five Connecticut locations. Kennedy & Perkins is distinguished from many competitors because of three things .a well trained staff skilled in such tricky arts as facial analysis and color analysis; great service & competitive prices; and a selection of eyewear unsurpassed in the areas, with several product lines which are exclusive to the state." While most other optical stores only stock a handful of lens choices, Kennedy & Perkins knows everyone's eyes are unique and we make available over 20 different kinds of lenses to get the best optics for your individual eyes. Kennedy & Perkins leads New England in fitting personalized progressive lenses, the newest in free form lens technology. We can have lenses made not just for your prescription, but for your eyes, and only your eyes.
