About these opticians

An optician is not an optometrist

An optical shop sells and fits glasses; the eye test itself is done by an optometrist, and not every shop has one on the premises. If you are going for a prescription rather than just frames, confirm beforehand whether a qualified optometrist performs the test and whether it is charged separately. Diseases of the eye — as opposed to refractive error — belong to an ophthalmologist, who is a physician.

When the problem is not your prescription

Vision that blurs gradually is usually a matter of prescription. Losing sight suddenly, seeing flashes or a curtain across your field of view, severe eye pain, or a very red eye with affected vision are not: those need same-day medical assessment. Changing glasses in those situations delays the diagnosis of something that may need urgent treatment.

Frequently asked questions

How many opticians are there in Mexico City?

Our directory lists 8 opticians in Mexico City. The figure comes from public registries and from the practices themselves, so it covers what has been registered rather than every establishment in the city.

Is this list ranked by quality?

No. We hold almost no ratings for these establishments, so ranking them by quality would be inventing a signal. The order puts the most completely documented first — those with a doctor profile, reviews, a website or a phone — and nothing on this page should be read as a recommendation.
