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 La Paz?
Our directory lists 9 opticians in La Paz. 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.
Can I call them directly?
1 of the 9 on this page publish a phone number, shown on each card and on the establishment's own page. Opening hours are not part of the public registries we draw on, so call ahead rather than assume.
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.
