'EYEGENTRY OPTICAL Seomyeon' | Our Visit
Enjoy a Relaxed Eyewear Shopping Experience in a Long, Spacious Store
The first thing that catches your eye when you enter the store is the spacious layout stretching all the way to the back.
The approximately 330-square-meter store features wall-mounted displays and tables arranged with plenty of space, creating a much more open atmosphere than a typical optical shop.
There is also ample space between the products, so you can browse comfortably without worrying about bumping into other customers. It was easy to take your time looking through the items one by one.
Mirrors and consultation seats are also available throughout the store.
When you find a frame you like, you can try it on right away and check how well it suits your face from the front and side. It is also convenient to compare several products and consult with the staff.
We also appreciated having a space where companions could wait together or take a short break while you choose your glasses.
Imported, Luxury, and Independent Brands All in One Place
Discover a wide range of Korean and international brands, including Lindberg, Maui Jim, Oakley, Ray-Ban, Miu Miu, Oliver Peoples, DITA, Silhouette, 999.9, Kaneko Optical, Kame Mannen, and Moscot.
There is a wide selection to choose from, including classic metal frames, distinctive acetate frames, and lightweight everyday glasses. In addition to branded products, the store also carries reasonably priced eyewear, so you can compare different options to suit your style and budget.
A Wide Selection, from Sunglasses to Everyday Eyeglasses
There is also a wide selection of sunglasses that are perfect for wearing right away during your trip. You can compare lens shapes, frame colors, and intended uses to find a design that suits you.
Even eyeglasses with the same shape can create a noticeably different overall impression depending on your face shape, eyebrow position, and frame width.
Rather than making a quick decision, our editor tried on and compared several frames in person.
Some frame styles that you would not normally try may look surprisingly flattering once you put them on, making eyeglass shopping itself feel like a fun styling experience.
If you're having trouble choosing on your own, find the right pair with help from the staff | Free Fitting
You can talk with the staff about your preferred style, how long you usually wear glasses, and any discomfort you have experienced while choosing your frames. They look beyond the design alone, also checking features that affect comfort, such as the nose pads, temple tips, and frame width.
Systematic Eye Exams with Professional Equipment | Free Eye Exam
Choosing the right frames is important, but if you are getting prescription glasses, the eye examination process is just as essential.
With Creatrip, you can book a free eye examination at 'EYEGENTRY Seomyeon'.
There are two examination rooms, making it convenient to go through several stages of testing in succession. When necessary, the staff use equipment such as ZEISS devices to carefully examine the condition of your eyes and glasses.
Rather than carrying out just one simple test, they use several pieces of equipment to check the necessary measurements in sequence, allowing you to get a more detailed understanding of your vision before your glasses are made.
The examination process and lens selection may vary depending on your vision and consultation results. If you have a pair of glasses you usually wear, it is also a good idea to bring them along for comparison.
Free Fitting Adjusted to Your Face
When it comes to glasses, finding a comfortable fit is just as important as choosing a pair that suits you. After selecting your frames, the staff will check how well they fit your face.
Even with the same pair of glasses, the fit can feel very different depending on where they sit on your nose, how they rest on your ears, and the angle of the frames.
Once you put on the glasses, the staff will check whether they press too tightly against your nose or ears and whether they slip easily when you move your head. If needed, they will adjust the frames to help you find the most comfortable fit for your face.
Lens Processing Done In-Store
EYEGENTRY OPTICAL Seomyeon has its own lens processing equipment, so you can complete the entire process, from consultation and eye examination to lens production, in-store.
Completion times may vary depending on your prescription, lens type, and stock availability. If your travel schedule is tight, be sure to ask about the earliest pickup time during your consultation.
