Where eyewear meets art — and a little personality!

At Optical Arts, we believe your glasses should do more than help you see. They should make you feel confident, express your personality, and fit your life.

​

Proudly supporting Toledo since 1962, Optical Arts was founded by Lester Diefienthaler, Mary Nyitray's father, with a vision for exceptional eyewear, personal service, and individual style. More than six decades later, that vision continues!
