Not all opticians are created equal.



A prescription gets you started — but expertise gets you seeing.



The difference lies in the details: how a frame fits your face, how a lens is matched to your life, how a Master Certified Optician goes beyond the basics to get it exactly right.



At Goodrich Optical, we don't just fill prescriptions — we perfect them.



Because your vision deserves more than good enough.
It deserves the best.

‘Spex’ does not work alone.

Behind him is a team at Goodrich Optical that has spent decades — in some cases, generations — mastering the craft of optical care. A Master Certified Optician. A State Licensed Optician. An optometrist committed to thorough, unhurried examinations.

In a field where most states require no formal training for the person fitting your glasses, that level of qualification is genuinely uncommon. In the greater Lansing area, it is essentially unmatched.

‘Spex’ is the face you will see on this page. But the expertise behind him is very real — and it shows in every pair of glasses that leaves this practice.

A few things you should know about ‘Spex’.

He takes eye care seriously — but he does not take himself too seriously. He believes that expertise should be accessible, not intimidating. That the best optician is one who can explain what they are doing and why, without making you feel like you asked a foolish question.

He is patient. Thorough. And he has very strong feelings about glasses that do not sit straight.

He will be showing up regularly on this page — sharing what he knows about vision, eyewear, and what it actually means to have glasses that work the way they should.

If you have a question about your eyes or your eyewear, ‘Spex’ is a good place to start. And so is Goodrich Optical.

So what exactly does ‘Spex’ do at Goodrich Optical?

He asks the questions most people forget to ask. Things like — does your current prescription actually feel right, or have you just gotten used to it? Are your lenses the right design for the way you use your eyes every day?

Did anyone take the time to properly fit that last pair, or did they hand them to you and send you on your way?

‘Spex’ is our way of making sure those questions get asked — and answered — every time.

He is not here to sell you something. He is here to make sure you get what you actually need. There is a difference, and at Goodrich Optical, that difference has mattered since 1968.

Watch this space. ‘Spex’ has a lot to share.

Before ‘Spex’ became the face of Goodrich Optical, he was just a schnauzer with unusually strong opinions about lens alignment.

He grew up in this practice. Watched thousands of patients walk in squinting and walk out seeing clearly. Sat through enough conversations about pupillary distance and progressive lens designs to earn a certification of his own.

Over time, he realized something. Most people have no idea what actually goes into a great pair of glasses. The measurements. The fitting. The difference between a pair that works and a pair that truly performs.

That bothered him.

So ‘Spex’ decided to do something about it. He is here now — bow tie on, suspenders straight — to make sure you know exactly what exceptional eye care looks like.

Welcome to Goodrich Optical. ‘Spex’ will be your guide.

Would you wear these contacts? For what purpose?

Japanese researchers at the University of Tokyo have unveiled futuristic contact lenses that provide true night vision without external gadgets. Built with graphene-based sensors, the ultrathin lenses detect infrared light the heat radiating from people and objects and convert it into visible images projected directly onto the retina.

What makes them groundbreaking is their power source. Instead of batteries or wires, the lenses run on body heat and the natural motion of blinking. Early tests show users can identify hidden people, objects, and even heat leaks in complete darkness, marking a huge leap in wearable vision technology.

The possibilities extend far beyond night vision. Doctors could use these lenses to visualize blood vessels, inflammation, or subtle tissue changes without invasive tools. From healthcare to security, this innovation points toward a future where enhanced human sight becomes seamless and natural. Source: University of Tokyo Graphene Optics Research.

The times, they are a changin'.

Scientists at Newcastle University, led by Dr. Che Connon, have 3D-printed a living human cornea in under 10 minutes using a bio-ink of stem cells and alginate, mimicking its natural structure.

This could restore vision for over 10 million people with corneal blindness, especially where donor tissue is scarce, and offers promise for future transplants with its accurate shape, clarity, and cell viability, potentially revolutionizing global eye care and regenerative medicine.
