Eye Fashions Optical Shoppe was established in 1957 by Dr. Peter Gibbons O.D. and was later purchased, and still owned, by Dr. Larry Schlauderaff O.D. Dr. Schlauderaff and his staff continue to focus on the optical needs of families. Our goal is to offer a wide selection of eyeglasses and contacts at very affordable prices, keeping in touch with the blue collar attitude of the Iron Range. Minor eye conditions such as pink eye, eye injuries, or removal of foreign objects can usually be handled quickly as a walk-in, and more serious eye conditions will be referred out to the most appropriate specialist. You can usually save time and money seeking ocular care first with a local optometrist instead of your local E.R. This service is best delivered by eye care providers. Dr. Schlauderaff was recently awarded the Helen Keller Sight award from the Lions Club International for his philanthropic approach to eyecare, providing services to elderly shut-ins, nursing homes, and the financially challenged. By working closely with the Lions Club, Dr. Schlauderaff can be sure that nobody in need goes without eyecare. This has been his goal since first becoming an optometrist. For a down-to-earth no pressure optometric experience, Eye Fashions Optical Shoppe is a great choice. A wide assortment of eyeglasses and some designer brand frames such as Jimmy Choo, Carrera, Tura, Ray Ban, OGI, and more. Most insurances are accepted (patients can self submit with the offices help if Eye Fashions is out of their network). Payment plans are available upon request, this keeps with the philosophy of eyecare for all economic means. “Nobody should be denied eyecare due to financial limitations,” says Dr. Schlauderaff.
