Our History

Within just a few short years of beginning in an 800 square foot office with 5 employees and 2 pieces of equipment, the Optic Blue dream has grown into a 7200 square foot lab with over 20 employees, a full surfacing department and no plans of slowing down.

In 2006, Jason Blue, tired of packing suitcases and running through airports, opened the doors of Optic Blue. Drawing from his years of lab experience and starting with 1 laptop computer, 1 edger, a manual blocker, and 4 other employees, the small 10 job a day lab began to grow. Within a years time, the lab had moved to a 1500 square foot space across the courtyard, added 140 jobs a day and 6 more employees. By the next year, another 100 jobs a day had been added, a remodel had taken place adding another 1000 square feet, a full surfacing department was installed and another 10 employees were added to the family.  Now having moved across town to a brand new 7200 sq foot facility, we have added more employees, more equipment and more than a few new valued employees.  The Optic Blue dream continues to grow. 

 

Our Mission

Optic Blue is a team of vision visionaries. We start with the basics of precision lens crafting and cutting edge technology from around the world, add industry-leading brand names and superior quality control and then combine all that with our signature with-you-all-the-way service and the best people and expertise the business has to offer - all to provide you with a paramount lens lab that produces consistently great eyewear.

What kind of leading-edge lenses do you need today? Optic Blue is up to the task. Our lenses originate from proven industry forerunners such as Hoya, bringing you performance qualities like Super HiVision AR coating with superior cleanability and scratch and heat resistance.

The team at Optic Blue understands you have a lot on your plate - customer service, inventory management and incorporating the latest industry trends into your practice. But if your patients don't get good results from their lenses, none of those other things really matter.

Let Optic Blue ease your mind about laboratory needs. We begin each job with quality control in mind, and we don't finish until you're happy with the results. We're personally invested in your success, because it reflects on our success. In fact, you can think of us as an extension of your practice.

Because we personally inspect all of our lenses and make certain the clarity and optics are up to our standards, you receive a finished product that's ready to dispense, time after time. At Optic Blue, you won't find missed target dates or double talk. We take the time to communicate with you from the moment we receive your order to the final fitting, and all services come at fair, competitive prices.
