Bellevue Eye Specialists

Helping You See and Be Seen

Redefine your world

To help those who see things a little differently, we do things a little differently. You don’t have to choose between style and quality. You don’t have to be limited to mass-market brands made by the same few fashion conglomerates. And you don’t have to go across town to see your ophthalmologist. Join us at Bellevue Eye Specialists, where we offer:

Unique Frames

We curate fine high-quality frames in many styles from independent eyewear designers around the world. We seek handcrafted, sustainably-made, and fashion-forward frames for our discerning customers.

In-House Eye Doctor

Meet our board-certified ophthalmologist, Abel Li, MD, OD, who has specialty training in glaucoma and cataracts. Not only will we help you get the most accurate prescription and best fit for your new frames, but we also provide full-service eye examinations and medical care.

Friendly Local Service

We’re conveniently located in the heart of charming Old Bellevue, on Main Street. Stop in for no-pressure conversation about the latest trends in optical design, and enjoy excellent service in English, Chinese, and Spanish.

What our customers have to say:

"My experience purchasing glasses at Bellevue Eye Special top notch--amazing service and such a cute store! They have such a wide variety of glasses from unique designers that I learned had been hand-picked by the staff. The optician, Celina, was beyond helpful and patient, as she spent a long time with me trying on numerous pairs to find the perfect glasses just for me. They took special care to measure/size my eyes so the glasses fit perfectly to my face and maximize my visual field while wearing the glasses, something I hadn't experienced before."

"When Bellevue Eye Specialists opened, I had been looking for an optical shop that offered a variety of choices so I could find new glasses that suit my personal style. As I explored the shop, it didn’t disappoint! I was pleasantly surprised at the large selection of frames they offered and, to help me evaluate the options, the staff was very friendly and professional."

Bellevue Eye Specialist has some of the best Optical professionals around. They helped me feel at ease throughout the entire process. From examination to the selection of the best glasses. Definitely would go again next year for an annual checkup. If you are due for new glasses, I would recommend stopping by.

"I was over due for an eye exam, my friend recommended me too see Dr. Li. The front desk was professional, and my appointment was on time and Dr. Li found glaucoma in one eye. I'll be seeing him next week. They also had a great selection on sunglasses, staff was knowledgeable about where product was from. Definitely would recommend Bellevue Eye Specialists."

"An experience worth raving about. From quality of care to service I am beyond impressed. Love the team at Bellevue Eye Specialists and love my new eyewear. Thank you!"

"FIVE stars for sure! Top notch service like I haven't experienced in a while anywhere. I decided to go to this privately owned small business instead of the larger chains and they went above and beyond for me. From beginning to end and it was a great experience! They carry high end lines that other shops in the area don't... why blend in when you can STAND OUT?!"

"Had a great experience, staff was kind and friendly. While I was there, got a treat! Found the sunglasses I wanted, there are many choices and cool brands to choose from."

"Enjoyed the experience and am completely satisfied with my new sunglasses. Selection was outstanding but more importantly, the staff knew their "stuff"...styles, fit, options and concern for what would be best for me. Will return for all my eyeglass needs."

"Bellevue Eye Specialists is your one stop for all for eye care. Not mention they provide the best services for eye exams and prescriptions, they also have huge selections of unique, hand made, designers stylish frames made both in US and all over the world, with affordable prices. The owners and all staff here are extremely friendly and have great patience to help people. You are guaranteed to be happy to find eye glasses that best fit your needs! I have been wearing glasses all my life, and switched to this clinic this year for eye exam. I ended up getting two pairs of prescription glasses with great satisfactions, and strongly recommend this place for my families and friends."

"I highly recommend Bellevue Eye Specialists. The selection of eye wear is set apart from any other eye glass store in the area. You will find a wide variety of trendy frames as well as every day eye wear. The staff was incredibly friendly and very knowledgeable."

"My experience with Bellevue Eye Specialists has been a great pleasure. They have the best selection of glasses in the area, and their customer service is far exceeded my expectation, the ladies were super professional and I love my new glasses they picked out for me. I highly recommend this place."
