Meet Dr. Sean Thoreby (Seattle, WA)

Dr. Thoreby has been in practice since 2015 and prides himself in helping patients maximize their vision and teaching patients how their eyes work. He has lived in the Seattle area nearly his whole life. After growing up in Bellevue, he went on to the University of Washington where he received his Bachelor of Arts in Communication.

My Dad’s glasses needed adjusting and a little repair. They fixed them and wouldn’t take any money. ... Going to buy all my glasses there from now on! Thank you Urban Optix!

I wanted to share a positive review since recently reviews have been negative and almost put me off ... coming here. But I couldn't be happier. Everything was explained to me so I understood what was covered by insurance and what wasn't. They took the time to help me pick my glasses. They rushed my order since I was heavily pregnant. Everyone was super helpful and friendly. Great range of specs and prices. Overall I would absolutely recommend.
