Long Island Opticians

Long Island Opticians Long Island Opticians is absolutely the best place to have fun and create your eyewear wardrobe! Long Island Opticians is the realization of a dream. Why?

My father, Alfred E. Santini, was a optician. Born into and trained in an era where learning a skilled trade was equivalent to a 10 year "school: going from apprentice to journeyman to master optician. When I told my Dad that I wanted to "go into the business", at first he discouraged me. Because he wanted me to be a doctor, specifically an optometrist. But I wanted to work with my hands, in a skilled craft. There's nothing wrong with being an eye doctor, but I knew what I wanted to do: I wanted to make, fit and style eyewear. In February 1984, with two of my classmates from optical school, Robert Meyrowitz and Ralph Tisdale, we opened Long Island Opticians here in Seaford. It's been an interesting and wonderful experience for almost four decades. Looking back, even though I went to school and my Dad did not, it still took me about that same 10 years to really master most of what you need to know to do this job well. Together with these long term friends, we're ready make you "Look Your Best"

Creativity deserves eyewear with personality — and precision to match.

At LI Opticians, The Creative is an archetype we intentionally design for. Artists, designers, writers, builders, and visionaries don’t just wear glasses — they live in them. Long days of focus, bursts of inspiration, screen time, sketching, editing, imagining — all demand eyewear that performs without dulling expression.

That’s where Barry Santini’s approach is different.
Barry curates frames that celebrate individuality through color, shape, and texture, while pairing them with lenses engineered for comfort, clarity, and endurance. The result? Eyewear that fuels inspiration instead of getting in its way.
This isn’t about standing out for the sake of it.

It’s about wearing something that feels like you — expressive, thoughtful, and effortlessly functional.
Because when your eyewear fits your creativity, your ideas can go further.

The Professional Archetype at LI Opticians

Your eyewear should speak before you do.
At LI Opticians, The Professional is one of our core archetypes—and it’s a major reason our frame library feels so intentional the moment you walk in. We curate with purpose, long before your appointment, so when you arrive, the right options are already waiting for you.

Professionals need eyewear that does more than look good. It must:
Project confidence and credibility
Complement executive presence
Perform flawlessly during long workdays, meetings, and screen time
Transition seamlessly from office to evening

That’s where Barry Santini’s expertise makes the difference.
Barry understands that first impressions still matter—and that eyewear plays a powerful role in how you’re perceived. From frame architecture and color balance to lens precision and comfort, every recommendation is guided by how you live and work.

Whether you’re leading teams, meeting clients, presenting ideas, or building your next chapter, your eyewear should quietly reinforce who you are—polished, capable, and confident.

At LI Opticians, we don’t wait for you to tell us you’re a professional.
We prepare for you in advance.
Because when you look your best, you lead your best.

The eyes don’t work alone. Rodenstock lenses sync with your brain’s visual cortex to sharpen focus, reduce strain, and speed up recognition. Because real clarity is neurological.

Silhouette proves that elegance doesn’t need bulk. Ultra-light titanium, rimless designs, and a custom fit so good, you’ll forget you ever wore anything else.

Whether you’re reading the fine print or driving into the sunset, your lenses should adapt to you. Rodenstock, Serengeti, and Vuarnet don’t just match prescriptions—they match lives.
