Heritage Optical – Heritage Downtown

Downtown Detroit optician on Monroe Street near Campus Martius: eye exams, contacts, designer frames and sunglasses.

01 / The story of this place

Make time for these

Heritage Optical is a Detroit-grown eye care business with three locations in the city, and this is the downtown shop at the foot of Monroe Street, steps from Campus Martius Park. Founder George P. Barnes Jr. is a longtime Detroit business and civic leader who also heads Heritage Vision Plans. Expect eye exams, contact lenses, designer frames, sunglasses and sports eyewear. If you work downtown or your glasses break mid-trip, it's the closest hometown optician.
