Make time for these
Heritage Optical is a Detroit eye care business with three locations in the city, and this is its east-side shop on Jefferson Avenue. It was founded by George P. Barnes Jr., a longtime Detroit business and civic leader who also heads Heritage Vision Plans. Inside you'll find eye exams, contact lenses, designer frames, sunglasses and sports eyewear. Handy if you're a local looking for a hometown optician, or a visitor whose glasses didn't survive the trip.
