ABOUT BÅGAR & GLAS

About Bågar & Glas

Bågar & Glas opened the door to the store in Gamla Stan in 1982 with the vision of presenting an experience out of the ordinary to the people of Stockholm who were in need of eyewear.

Bågar & Glas is an independent optician, we carefully select each frame and supplier at the major fairs in Milan, Paris and New York and we are constantly looking for the latest. All this so that we can give our customers unique frames and the best quality.
Bågar & Glas' clinical operations consist of careful eye examinations and extended eye health examinations. We treat dry eyes and help customers see better by prescribing night lenses.

At Bågar & Glas, we are passionate opticians and assistants with great knowledge and joy. We have time and we take the time to meet our customers and will not give up until we have helped you find your perfect solution!

Today we have three stores. The original store is still in Gamla Stan, but is now at Kornhamnstog 51. You can find the store in the city at Norrlandsgatan 7. And the third is our web shop here on the website.

OPTICIAN - SHOP - WORKSHOP

Knowledge

Our expertise, knowledge and commitment are the most important and unique things we can offer you as a customer. We want you to feel safe and taken care of, whatever your case with us is, eye examination, buying new frames, adjusting or repairing a pair of old ones.

One thing that sets us apart from most other opticians is that we have a fully equipped workshop in our premises in Gamla Stan. The workshop is the heart of our business. Having your own workshop is not part of the norm in today's optics industry. So why have we chosen to do what many other actors do not prioritize because it is resource-intensive, costly and time-consuming?

The answer is simple: At Bågar & Glas, we have a great need for quality, knowledge and sustainability!

Time

Time is a scarce commodity in today's society. At Bågar & Glas, we always have time for you and your needs. It is important for you to find someone to think about your needs and get answers to all your questions during your eye examination. It is also important to us that we take the time to do an investigation in peace and quiet. As a customer, you should feel that you get the time you need. Never feel stressed.

YOU SHOULD OWN YOUR STYLE

Selection

We want you to own your personal style. Harvey Moscot, CEO of Moscot, said that “your glasses are the first thing a person see when they meet you. The frame sits in the middle of your face. Be sure to express who you are and make an immediate impression!” We agree 100%. Choose the person you want to be.

We travel to the most important optical fairs in the world to handpick the brands and exact frames we want on our shelves. We have selected each brand we represent for a reason, they are with us to fulfill a function. In addition to the appearance, the quality of the frames is extremely important to us.

The most important thing for us is that you find that bow, that look that you yourself want and desire. What is right for someone else may not be right for you. You are the one who should own your personal style!
