Carrying on a Legacy

We proudly carry a 48-year-old legacy into modern times without giving up on our customers. Mr. Bob Green founded Alabaster Optical in 1976. Bob built his reputation on the crazy idea that he should treat his customers like he would want to be treated. His generosity to those in need or in hard times made him a legend in Alabaster, Alabama. The city even named the main parkway through downtown Alabaster after him. To learn how we carry on this legacy, visit our About page.
