About Us

When you visit any of our locations in the Scottsdale or Phoenix areas, know that you’re getting service from a clinic with decades of experience.

Although we’ve gone through name changes, we’ve been operating in the area since 1960. The decades prove that our success isn’t a coincidence. We’ve provided excellent eyecare service through advanced technology and a professional eye doctor team.

60 + Years of History

Dr. Don Shapiro started the first Optical Expressions in 1960 as Shapiro and Associates. With one location at Willo District site, Optical Expressions became a family affair In 1979 when Dr. Don Shapiro’s son, Gary, joined the practice.

From there, Optical Expressions flourished, opening a new location in 1985 in Hilton Village and another three years later at the Esplanade site. All of these locations still see patients to this day.
