![]() Using the finest-quality lenses, coating, and treatments, the eyewear boutique not only brings quality but variety. The community was given the first look at what’s in store when optical science meets fashion. I’m living my dream at Eye Candy.BECKLEY, WV (WOAY) – What began out of a need has now turned into a reality as some of the highest quality and fashionable eyewear comes to Beckley.Įye Candy Optical, the newest premier boutique celebrated its grand opening with a ribbon-cutting ceremony and an all-day open house. I love to bring this knowledge and experience to each of my customers to enable us to find the perfect look and excellent vision they deserve. I have over 40 years of experience in the optical industry (boy did I start out young!). I love animals and my husband, Tray and I have 4 cats: Zoey, Betty Boops, Jesse, and Frankie! When I’m not showing you the latest and greatest in eyewear, I love to read and belong to a book club, garden in the summer, enjoy dinner with friends and travel every chance I get. My passion is customer service, and I am dedicated to providing high quality eyewear with service that meets or beats your expectations. The concept of Eye Candy was developed from my belief that the experience of selecting eyewear should be as fun and exciting as wearing that great pair of amazing new glasses. Hi! I’m an American Board of Opticianry Certified Optician and the owner of Eye Candy. ![]() PAULA Eye Candy Owner + Certified Optician Oh, and I’m a Hoosier, but please don’t hold that against me. The Eye Candy experience is unlike anything I had seen before carefully curated, high-quality eyewear collections, and a full staff of certified opticians ready to help you find your new “eye candy.” When I’m not working I’m usually exploring Wisconsin, trying new restaurants, or gaming with my friends. But one opportunity I hadn’t yet had was to work in a luxury boutique like Eye Candy. I’ve worked in both retail and doctor-owned practices, I’ve become certified with the American Board of Opticianry, and I’ve worked in a lab cutting lenses. I love to learn, love to use critical thinking, and love a good challenge, so between these traits and my artistic background, being an optician makes perfect sense. And thus, in April of 2005, I began my optical journey. I saw a job posting for a big box retail optical and thought to myself, “Why not?” So I took a chance and applied for an optician position. I like to joke that I fell into this line of work. I can’t wait to assist you with your newest look. I love camping and exploring the great outdoors here in Wisconsin and across our great country with Gregg and both dogs. When I am not working I am walking our two Labrador retrievers Tilley and Zeus, gardening and getting together with my family. Selecting eyewear should be a fun experience and that is what I want for everyone who walks in our door. Four years ago I met Paula and let’s say the rest is history, I joined Eye Candy and I enjoy every day! I absolutely love styling people in unique, fun and colorful eyewear as well as providing the best in lens technology. I missed my customers so I found my way back into a private doctor’s office in Hartland where I stayed for about 8 years, helping customers pick out fabulous eyewear. ![]() I became a certified optician along the way and I enjoy sharing my knowledge and expertise with others. I was fortunate to also work as an optical lens sales rep for a few years. I loved working with our customers trying to find just the right pair of glasses for work, play and sun. I began my career in a small retail optical in downtown Milwaukee, then progressed to Chicago for a couple years. I started in the optical industry in 1982, wow time flies when you’re having fun.
