Lookable, a new eyewear chain, is opening four stores on Long Island.
The chain has just opened a store at 135 Deer Park Ave. in Babylon and another at 3251 Sunrise Highway in Wantagh.
Two other Lookable locations will open soon at 2324 Merrick Road in Merrick and at 83 W. Main St. in Smithtown.
The Lookable chain is operated by LION Management Service Organization, which also manages a network of optometrist groups on Long Island.
Lookable stores use virtual technology for contactless and comprehensive vision tests and offer a wide variety of name-brand frames that can be shipped directly to customers. The stores also offer on-demand tele-optometry and contact lens fittings.
“We are thrilled to be launching the first Lookable stores after conceiving the idea only a year ago. The industry has been stuck in outdated methods and technology, and the consumer deserves better,” James Vena, founder of Lookable and CEO of Lion Management Service Organization, said in a company statement. “Lookable allows the optometrist to focus on patient care and remove them from the retail business which gives the customer more freedom and selection.”
Marissa Cosentino of Scout Realty Group represented Lookable in the Babylon, Wantagh, Merrick and Smithtown lease transactions.
“It has been very exciting seeing this innovative concept come to life,” Cosentino said. “Always a pleasure working with the LION team. I wish them good luck and endless success for the years to come.”
