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"

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.

Serengeti lenses are engineered for more than sunshine—they adapt to light, reduce eye fatigue, and elevate contrast like no other. It's like high-performance gear for your face.

Your eyes adjust constantly—so should your lenses. Rodenstock lenses work with your brain’s natural processing to give you seamless, clear vision across every distance.
