Le Bonhomme \u00e0 lunettes offers a unique alternative when you need an optician in Gatineau. Our business model is very simple: rather than having branches and paying expensive rent, we stop by community organizations to offer our services. By cutting operating costs, we can afford to offer our low-cost eyewear to everyone, without exception. What sets us apart is not only our mission, which is to make the purchase of eyewear accessible to all, but also our service and community involvement.<\/p>\n
Gatineau residents with long memories might recall that we already had service points in the region a few years ago. However, flooding and COVID-19 forced us to shut it down back then. Still, due to strong demand and community mobilization, we returned to the city in the fall of 2023. There was even an article in Le Droit about it<\/a>.<\/p>\n We now have five regular service points in the Outaouais region, including three in Gatineau: Aylmer<\/a>, Hull<\/a> and Pointe-Gatineau<\/a>. We stop by weekly. All three Gatineau locations are walk-in, so all you have to do is show up with your prescription. Curious about prices? We explain everything in this other blog post<\/a>.<\/p>\n We also criss-cross the area doing occasional clinics in organizations that wish to receive us<\/a>. Think this might be you? Contact us<\/a>!<\/p>\n Customer service is our top priority. Our team is made up of qualified, dedicated professionals with over 500 years' experience. Customers appreciate our friendly, no-pressure approach. Our aim is to find the best solution for your needs, within your means. We also offer personalized advice, as well as adjustments and repairs when needed. Our aim is to help you see clearly, because seeing clearly is not a luxury!<\/p>\n Since we started in 2007, we have become a fundraising tool for many community organizations. In fact, every time you buy a pair of glasses from us, a portion of the profits is donated on a quarterly basis to our partners<\/a>. In total, we have handed over nearly 1.5 million over the course of our history. Not bad for a company that had just one employee for the first four years of its existence!<\/p>\n Curious to see what we have to offer? Come see us in Gatineau, we'll be happy to help!<\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" Le Bonhomme \u00e0 lunettes propose une solution alternative lorsque vous avez besoin d\u2019un opticien \u00e0 Gatineau.
