If you are a billiards player who wears glasses, you MUST contact Bill and get a set of these glasses. Incredible service, fast turn around time, and awesome quality glasses are just a few things I can say about Bill and what he offers. With my low stance, I was having trouble seeing far shots. No more. With these glasses, I can feel confident with any shot, anytime.

Such a nice experience. They are very kind enough to explain and delivered in timely manner. I forgot credit card there and walked for half a mile. And Curran drove and handed over it to me!!Mike is very patient to explain me about the kids glasses as I am very new to this. I rarely type reviews, but this one doesnt leave me without appreciate it.

I havent played much pool in the last couple of years; my vision made it impossible for me to play as well as I used to and it was just too frustrating. My regular glasses didnt help because I was looking right over the top of them when I got down to shoot. I thought I was done with pool. Then a friend told me about billiard glasses. I received my new pair last month, and now I can see when Im playing again! Its made all the difference in the world. Its so wonderful to be able to see and play the game I love again. Thank you, thank you, thank you for making these glasses!

Amazing customer service, wonderful selection of frames as well as upgrade options on lenses such as tint, custom lens shape, etc, and a level of craftsmanship and knowledge that is unrivaled. These gentlemen will not steer you wrong, after two pairs of glasses I am beyond satisfied and although I do not need them, I can not wait to get another pair:))).

My 4 year old son needed glasses and I am so happy that I used William Curran. Bill and his son were super patient and informative!! They were very thorough and my son really likes the glasses. I appreciate the exceptional service that we received.

I received my new billiard glasses this past Monday. They fit perfectly, I did not have to adjust anything. I am very impressed on how light weight they are, feels like I am not wearing glasses. Tuesday night I shot several games with them on. A huge improvement! Balls are well defined - no longer fuzzy, I am no longer bobbing my head up and down because the frame of my old glasses are in the way, and I am no longer squinting to see the balls. Also, as a spectator, my view of the table and my opponents shot has significantly improved. Overall I am very pleased, I wish I would have known about your billiard glasses years ago. I highly recommend your billiard glasses to anyone struggling with their vision at the table.Thank you

Hello Bill, I received my glasses yesterday and have played a few hours to see how I like them. The bottom line is that they have exceeded my expectations they are so light I almost don’t know that I have them on. They only required a few small adjustments for fit which was very easy and the vision up close and at the end of my 9 foot table is perfect. I am now able to see exactly where I need to hit as compared my best guess at a fuzzy target. There is no frame across the top which made my other glasses useless. I know you’ve heard this before but I should’ve done this a few years ago. I never paid more than $100 dollars for glasses before and just got the minimum from places like America’s Best so to me your glasses looked very expensive. But understanding the custom nature and state of the art materials and processes to make them along with my vision problem and love for the game I thought I would take a chance. I’m glad I did I really love these glasses and believe they are worth every penny thank you for your skill and this product. It was great being able to speak to you as well it also gave me confidence in this product. I would love a backup but can’t go for one now I realize I really need glasses to play now so if I damage them no pool until they get repaired or replaced. Thank you and your team very much.

My first words after trying on my glasses for the first time was, WOW! I could actually see everything around me in crystal clear focus. The adjustments made to my prescription was spot on; allowing me to maintain focus the entire length of the table. The glasses are well made and worth every penny. There is nothing to distract the eye and plenty of lens to aim through. I have found zero light refraction and haven’t had to adjust my aim or stroke in any way. The service I received could not have been better.To Everyone at Curran Opticians, GREAT JOB!!!!!!Thanks

I have a strong eye prescription (-11 diopters), so it is challenging to make billiards glasses in over-sized shapes and keep the thickness of the lenses reasonable. In my case, the process to get to the end product took three attempts. On each attempt, Bill took my feedback over email and phone, and he insisted on getting things right. As he said, failure is not an option. On each attempt, the glasses were made quickly and sent back via mail, so overall, the whole process took just a few weeks.The end result is a totally customized design for what I need. In my case, the glasses are more of a standard shape, but the lenses are tall enough, so that I dont see the top edge, when Im down on the shot.They are very comfortable and light-weight. The temples wrap around the ears, so they dont shift on me. I dont have any issues seeing the top of the frames when Im down on the shot as an extra 2 mm height over my old billiard glasses was added. The other big improvement is the prescription update. My old glasses were probably 7 years old, so the update in power makes seeing the ball edges on long cut shots possible, whereas before I just had to guess at the aiming line.Its a joy to wear these glasses. Bill and his staff are very friendly and easy to work with. I highly recommend working with him.

I rarely write reviews but I am so appreciative of my experience with Bill that I had to provide feedback. I called from Atlanta, Georgia to inquire about the rimless glasses for children because I could not find them elsewhere. He handled my order personally via phone and email. He provided me with pictures of how the glasses would appear on my son, which was so much more than I expected. He went above and beyond throughout the entire process. He was extremely kind, helpful, and courteous. It was clear to me that my satisfaction was his #1 priority.This experience surpassed expectations. It is refreshing to have a business demonstrate that your experience as a customer is of paramount importance. I appreciate the top rate customer service!!!And the glasses are a hit!!! My son love them. He enjoys wearing them and actually forgets he has them on because they are so light-weight. At least twice I heard him say where are my glasses! and then say oh ... I am wearing them which brought a laugh and smile to his face ... and of course mine too. :-) THANKS BILL!!!!!

Cannot say enough great things about my 4 year old daughters glasses! We always get compliments, including adults noting that they would get the same rimless frames for themselves. I love how the rimless glasses dont overtake my daughters face, and are so flexible and sturdy to withstand normal preschooler wear and tear. The customer service here is unbeatable - customized and attentive, and just such a pleasant experience. I had actually ordered another pair of glasses from a local optical store initially, but when I heard about the rimless glasses I canceled the other pair, and am so happy I did. We do have a backup pair of glasses that I ordered online, and let me tell you there is such a difference in the look of the rimless glasses on my daughter. You will not regret purchasing the rimless glasses from Curran Opticians, worth every penny!

I honestly can not say enough good things about my experience with William J Curran and Son Optician. My daughter Jovi has a very strong prescription which meant very thick and heavy glasses. The glasses would not sit well on her face due to the weight of them so she was constantly looking over them and not through them. I offered to pay extra to get her lenses condensed but I was told that that was not an option for her by all the glasses providers in my area. That’s when I began my look online and was lucky to come across William J Curran and Son optician. The customer service was amazing, both Bill and Mike took the time to listen to my questions and concerns and to explain what they had to offer. What was even better was the quality of the glasses! They are amazingly thin and lightweight! The difference is truly unbelievable! They sit so well on her face without sliding and what’s even nicer is that they don’t cover her face at all, sometimes I have to do a double take because I can’t tell if she is wearing them or not. William J Curran and Son optician will be getting all future business for both my daughter’s eyewear needs and for my own. I highly highly recommend them for any eye wear needs you have in general but especially for those with strong prescriptions and thick and heavy glasses.

For someone that loves the game of pool as I do, failing to see the balls on the table clearly , either with my natural eyes or prescription lenses, was becoming a big problem!!! Enter William J Curran & Son Opticians...PROBLEM SOLVED! The lenses that were prepared for me allows for an exceptional view of the entire table which is absolutely critical for long range shots. Because the lenses are designed to fit over my eyebrows I no longer have to squint or try to look over my eye glasses frame. With my renewed vision I have no doubt that my game will rise to new levels. So if youre someone who really loves the game of pool and vision has become an issue, I highly recommend giving Bill a call and begin the process of being expertly fitted for a pair of Billiard Glasses by Curran.Staying focused,Robert Duncan

I usually do not write reviews, but I felt that Curran optical deserve one. From the moment that I walked at the establishment until the day I picked up my billiard glasses, the experience was very professional. Personal one on one time was extended to me and not split amongst other customers. The measurement the fitness of my glasses was unlike any other experience that I’ve had in the 48 years of wearing corrected lenses. The billiard glasses are a great addition to my billiards equipment, instead of wearing contacts which I was losing some clarity with them. I was also impressed by the hard glasses case with the strap so I could carry my glasses and billiard case together. 2 thumbs up. Not only for my billiard glasses but any future eyewear.

They know what they are doing. We went in for my kids glasses and they checked the fit thoroughly beyond our expectation. Amazing! And their rimless kids glasses are very light and comfortable that my daughter chose the rimless one over a hot pink frame!I also had many questions since it’s the first time getting glasses for my kids, but he was patiently answered all questions. We appreciate it a lot.

I have been taking my son to William J. Curran & Sons Opticians since he was 6 months old. They are so welcoming and helpful. Most especially my sons lenses have been accurate and the frames fit perfectly. Recently, my sons frames broke, and I thought he would have to go a few days without them to be replaced, but Bill was able to use a sample frame and fix them on the premises within minutes. He was so kind to take care of it right away, so my son would not be without his glasses. I am always so happy with the service and quality at William J. Curran & Sons. I highly recommend them especially to parents needing infant size glasses for their child.

We glad that we found William Curran Optician. The staff is knowledgeable, and Mr. William Curran is very patient with kids. There is a wide variety of selection on eyewear. After choosing a frame we had the glasses handcrafted and a couple of days later we got a call to pick them up,that was very fast compare to our previous optician. The only inconvenience is about the location which makes it difficult to get out of the front parking especially when some drivers wont let you back out of the parking spot. Great customer service and affordable price!!!!!

I simply can’t say enough good things about Bill Curran and his staff. I was very hesitant about purchasing prescription billiard glasses online until I spoke with Bill in person. I could tell that Bill was a man of high character and took great pride in his work. Shortly after our conversation I filled out the advance application for progressive lens using the Backspin lens shape. I received my glassed with seven working days and they are simply awesome and much more than I actually expected. Hats off to Bill Curran and his staff!!!

20 years removed from billiards, I started playing again but, with glasses. Wearing regular glasses restricted my vision when looking over them and, sacrificed body position when raising my head high enough to see through them. This would bring my chin position off of the cue with mixed and inconsistent results. These billiard glasses allow me to have my chin on the cue looking down my target line for my best accuracy and stroke with clear vision at the same time. A very wise investment in my game. Highly reccomend!

I recently purchased my son rimless glasses from William J Curran and Son Opticians, and service as well as the glasses were excellent. I just think over the years all the money I have wasted on glasses that just werent right for my son and all the time I wasted trying to get a toddler/young boy to get fitted for glasses. This was an excellent experience, a very easy one and my son has yet to take his glasses off since he received them. He even sleeps with them on! They are well well well worth the money! I dont think I will ever purchase glasses for my son anywhere else. Thanks for the A+ service and wonderful glasses! I cant wait to do get more glasses in the future. We couldnt be happier with the service or glasses!

My husband and I cannot say enough good things about William Curran Opticians. We ordered glasses online for our toddler from out of state and within 7 days we received them. They were perfect! All of the paperwork was completed in 1 day, Bill and the rest of his staff were so helpful and kind as this was the first pair of glasses for anyone in our family and overall customer service was just amazing. Our daughters glasses are beautiful and she still looks like herself while wearing them. This has been a wonderful experience and Id highly recommend them.

Review №26

When I first started getting serious about pool naturally I had to address my eyesight issue. My first and cheap answer was purchasing generic billiards eye wear. These did serve a purpose at the time but my eyesight just felt off. I decided to take the leap and get a custom pair. Granted these billiards glasses do not come cheap (depending on your budget), but quality never does. I must say that if you are looking for top notch service with quality eye wear, Mr. Curran will not disappoint.. Not only is the initial ordering easy but it is followed up the next day with a personal phone call to assess what is exactly needed. They will not over sell you. As a billiards player there is nothing like looking across the table and being able to see minute details of the contact point and edges. Well worth every dollar and a solid investment in my opinion.

Review №27

Finally an answer to my quest for the perfect eye-ware for playing pocket billiards. I have been playing pool since I was very young and it wasnt until I reached my 50s when my vision had degraded to the point of needing glasses. My normal glasses have been giving me a fit for the last decade due to the fact that when I am down low in a shooting position, the rim of my glasses would always obstruct my aim. Consequently, I would normally just remove my glasses when playing and deal with the fuzzy focus on the object ball. I have tried single vision contact lenses, but due to my astigmatism they would rarely settle on my eyes correctly. After an extensive search, I found William J Curran and Son Opticians. They offer a super light, high arched lens designed specifically for billiard players. I ordered the glasses on-line and Bill Curran called me the same day to ask me questions and fine tune my prescription so that my glasses would fit correctly. I just received my glasses today, and after a short trial run on my home table, I am more than impressed and satisfied. The lenses are exactly what they advertise and my table vision is crystal clear on every shot. I will certainly spread the word to all my pool addicted friends. My thanks to Bill and the crew at William J Curran & Son.

I purchased billiard glasses from Curran & Sons Opticians. I have worn the glasses for 5 hours now playing pool. These replace a standard set of glasses I have used for 4 years. These new glasses from Curran are a significant improvement. No frame to distract my shots when I set up. The new glasses are extremely lite weight and fit very comfortably. In general they allow for significantly improved concentration when playing pool. The service was outstanding which included a phone call from Bill Curran reviewing the order details. Glasses arrived just as described on their website. Included were 2 bottles of cleaning fluid and 2 cleaning cloths. I am very pleased with this decision in choosing Curran Optical and using their website.

The glasses are not inexpensive but they are not totally outrageous in price either when you see what you end up with. They are absolutely worth it if you wear glasses to shoot pool. I dont know how I could be happier with the glasses I received. No longer do I have to turn my regular glasses upside down to see the pool balls and the only complaint I have is that now I cant use not being able to see well as an excuse when I miss a shot. I totally recommend them and will be a returning customer.

I did not start wearing glasses until I was 60yrs old. Bill had replaced new lenses in a pair of sunglasses I had purchased from Oakley. I first noticed the quality and clarity of the new lens as soon as I walked outside. Today 5 years later I picked up my new glasses that Bill and I went step by step to pick out. I have no doubt that the glasses I got today could not be made by anyone any better than what I am wearing today. The fit, quality and clarity cannot be made any better. First class people, first class product. Thanks.

I have been struggling to shoot pool with contacts and glasses. With my everyday glasses my natural sight is above the frame. To make myself look through the lenses I have to jack my neck back in a uncomfortable position and squint my nose. Thought contacts would be the fix. WRONG!! Have an a astigmatism in my left eye and tried different kinds to no avail.William J Curran & Son Opticians is a life saver. They were super easy to deal with. From start to finish was less than two weeks. When I received my glasses I was very impressed. Not your ugly you wouldn’t want to be seen in glasses like most are. These actually look great on! They are well constructed and very light and comfortable. I have seen other products from other companies and they don’t even come close to CURRAN OPTICIANS. All that I can say is WOW I now can play pool in a natural position and see with no aggravation. I would highly recommend. Repeat!! Highly recommend these glasses over any others.

I have 4 year old quadruplets, and 3 of them needed glasses. We started out at some of the big name chain stores and felt so frustrated because we couldnt find anything we liked and the customer service was poor. Everything covered their little faces. When we walked into Curran Opticians, we were immediately greeted and helped through the entire process. The first pair they put on my daughter (gorgeous rimless pair) was immediately right. All my anxieties about them wearing glasses melted away. I could see their faces and they all seemed so comfortable in them. Bill Curran was careful to measure everything and take into account the tiniest details like face shape and eyelash length to be certain they had the proper size and shape lens. He made sure the color of the temples and bridge matched their complexion/hair color/eye color. We got three sets of rimless glasses and couldnt be more pleased (see photos in his photo section). They are so proud of them and weve had no issues with wearing compliance. Curran Opticians took a stressful situation and turned it into something fun for our children. I will recommend them to anyone!

They say customer service is a foreign concept today and in short supply. I can state unequivocably that doesnt hold true with the William Curron Opteometry group. I am a special needs pool player with an astigma that was having difficulty finding a good pair of glasses and couild not find anyone of a local nature who could solve my challenge. On the recommendation of other pool players I was referred to Curran and could not be happier. The service was prompt, thorough and professional. I needed an adjustment after getting my first pair and Bill and team made the correction and I can n ow see the balls better than ever. It was good to work with a professional group where customer service and quality eye wear are paramount. I highly recommend this group for your needs accordingly.

I cant say enough how thankful I am to have found William Curran & Son. Looking at the options for toddler glasses literally made me cry. After talking with Mike at William Curran & Son, I felt so much better and really felt good about the value of this purchase (custom, rimless eyewear for my 19 month old). Then for the ordering process, I dealt directly with Bill and he was very helpful every step of the way. They completed the glasses much faster than they estimated and got them to me within a week. I am SO thankful that I can still see my sweet baby when I look at my son, instead of seeing glasses. Thank you, thank you, thank you!! Highly recommended.

I am an amateur Poolplayer and I love the game. Recently because Im 62, I have had issue with seeing clearly across the table . I had my regular glasses and would be looking over the top of them across table . It was a blur. I thought the only way to deal with this issue was to compensate for my bad eye site. What did I do ? I would try to take stripes all the time. Why ? I could see the angles better where to hit the object ball. On a solid it was virtually impossible for me. I was getting frustrated with my game and not liking it very much. I saw a billiard glasses video by Bill Curran and Sons Optical and I was impressed. I called right away and talked to Bill who was very very helpful and knew what I was going through. Well I got my glasses and I knew right away I made the right choice. Thank you for bringing back to me the game I love.

OMG! These Billiard glasses are incredible. Ive been playing pool for 58 years. I started playing pool when i was 5 years old. As I got into my fifties it got increasingly more difficult for me to play with my poor vision. Nothing is worse than trying to play pool with your regular glasses. So I would just play without glasses and it was so frustrating to try and see. A few weeks ago I stumbled across William J. Curran & Son Opticians on Youtube while searching for a solution. I saw Bills video and immediately called him. Bill was very helpful and went over all of my options. I then ordered my Billiard glasses on his website and received them within 10 days. These new glasses have exceeded my expectations on improving my game. I would recommend anyone interested in improving their game to contact Bill at William J. Curran & Sons Opticians.

We have had our rimless glasses from Bill for over 4 years now. The purchase of these glasses is the best decision we made by far for our daughter. These glasses are hands down the best! We always receive comments on Charlees glasses and are constantly asked where we got them from - even from experts in the field here in Australia! Our local optometrist is still blown away by the quality, durability and design of these rimless glasses. Even our daughters ophthalmologist / surgeon (who happens to be the best here in Australia) always comments on how great Charlees glasses are. Girl with the best glasses in Australia he calls her.

Hey Bill! Just wanted to follow up on my billiard glasses that I bought from you. I had a problem with getting a chance to play for the last 3 months as I have been very busy at work. I started using your billiard glasses approximately a month ago & have been practicing almost daily with them since my schedule has slowed down. I have to tell you these glasses are the best investment I have made in I dont know how long. Because you raised the prescription up a level, the balls on the table look a little bigger as well as the pockets. So needless to say, I now have very clear vision at the table for the first time in years thanks to you & your staff. I currently play 3 Leagues per week & have been getting a lot of questions about my glasses. Looks like youre a hit here in Central Florida. Thanks again for all of your help!

We have been customers for 5 years and would never go anywhere else. The rimless glasses were a a true blessing for our 3 year old daughter, Anna. We had bought a pair of glasses a week earlier somewhere else and Anna was not comfortable at all. They were big and bulky and too heavy for her little face. We were referred by a friend to Currans and were immediately introduced to the rimless glasses. She has not taken them off since. The customer service is above and beyond. Example: Anna sat on and broke her glasses the evening before her first day of kindergarten. In a panic, we called Bill at Currans about a minute before closing time. He answered and without hesitation, told us to come in. It took us about 30 minutes to get there and another 30 minutes to fix them. He never made us feel like we were bothering him. He was happy to do it. ABOVE and BEYOND!

I recently bought a pair of pool glasses. I have worn glasses since age 16, am an anesthesiologist working in an eye clinic, so I know a bit about vision. The workmanship and lenses in these glasses are first class. I was a bit hesitant about buying them from 3000mi away, but the fit is good, and the optical centers are correct. They are so light and good, that you wont even know you have them on when you are playing. They were packaged well for shipping, and cleaning solution and lens wipes were included.Follow up was first class. I wish I had bought a pair sooner. Not enough stars. JB

I moved to the area from Virginia and had been wearing glasses and contacts for over ten years. A friend recommended I go out here to Drexel Hill when I needed new glasses, and the experience was a dramatic improvement over opticians I had visited in Virginia. Curran and Son had a very nice selection of eyewear and carried nothing but quality brands and products. What really made the difference was the personal attention and service though. I met Bill and he selected a few frames that he thought may suit me. He convinced me to try a more stylish frame than the ones I had been wearing, and thanks to that change I went from cringing when I had to wear my glasses to choosing to wear them instead of my contacts once or twice a week. He really paid attention to how the glasses sat on my ears and nose, what point in the lens I was looking through, and the overall fit and feel. This is a great store. I would never go anywhere else at this point.

Bill Curran is the consummate optician who, year after year, knows what is better for me than I do! I cannot imagine going elsewhere as no other optical practice could match the professionalism and sheer class that are foundational to William Curran & Son Opticians.

I have been getting my glasses from William J Curran Opticians for 35+ years. They have outstanding selection and customer service. I moved out of the area 25 years ago and still drives 5 hours to get my glasses...it is so worth the trip!

So impressed with the rimless eyewear that Bill Curran provided for my one year old daughter. I was recommended to him through a Facebook group, and after a very easy online form process, the staff at William Curran & Sons was extremely quick to respond. They made the ordering process super easy, and provided customized lenses that I was able to view and approve through a superimposed image. After receiving our eyewear exactly one week later via USPS, we sent some pictures of our cutie in her new glasses over to Dr. Curran, and he called to talk us through shaping her frames and to discuss fit and forming within an hour! What amazing customer service, and an amazing product! They are adorable, light, easy to work with, and the rimless look is really great because it doesn’t cover a small child’s face like normal frames do. We LOVE our William Curran lenses and highly recommend to anyone who has a new little one in glasses, or if you’re interested in some customized lenses for yourself!

I went here for my son. I wasnt acknowledged for 10 minutes. The guy that approached us acted like a bad car salesman. Selection was non existent, as all the kids in the 3 albums they had, had the same pair of glasses on. It wasnt what we were looking for and after saying that they insisted that if we went somewhere else my son would look geeky for the school year.
