About
FOUNDER & OPTICAL VISIONARY
Grove Opticians, Boca Raton, Florida
Robert Sarasohn
I didn’t grow up dreaming of building a career in optical fashion. But somewhere between a psychology degree and a brother-in-law’s encouragement I became fascinated with not just how people see, but also how they define their looks.
What started out as a practical decision evolved into a calling where I had to merge science, fashion, and entrepreneurship to create spectacles that perfectly represent each customer.
The frame you wear can actually provide a glimpse into your personality. It might be the shape, the color, the texture or even the size that can tell a story........your story.
That is why I travel to Europe annually in search of those special frames providing you options you can’t find on every shelf.
Most important of course are your lenses. You can be confident knowing that they will be precisely crafted for your visual needs.
Getting the right eyewear is so important. When you wear prescription glasses they need to be with you all of the time. They’re like your best friend.
It’s the first thing you see when you meet someone.
They’re not just on your face but part of your face.
Many people refer to them as an accessory but they become much more than that.....they actually become part of your persona. They are who you are.

I always loved fashion and was interested in how things were made. Being an eyeglass wearer myself I became particularly focused on eyewear. At the early age of 20 my optical journey began working in an optical boutique in Great Neck on Long Island.
After a few years and several blizzards later I decided it was time to move to sunny Florida.
For the past 12 years I’ve been working with Robert at Grove Opticians.
I truly enjoy helping people discover eyewear that not only looks great but also reflects their unique personality.

I’ve been immersed in fashion for most of my life. With decades of hands-on experience and a family background rooted in the optical industry, I’ve developed a sharp eye for craftsmanship, detail, and timeless style.
While I have a deep appreciation for heritage and vintage fashion—especially classic clothing, statement jewelry, and iconic sunglasses—I’m equally tuned into what’s happening now. I stay closely connected to emerging trends and the styles shaping today’s culture, from runway influence to the looks dominating social media platforms.
For me, great fashion lives at the intersection of past and present: honoring what came before while constantly evolving with what’s next.

My optical career began as a graduate of Erie Community College with an Associates Degree in Ophthalmic Dispensing. I was inspired in the field by a friend who owned a successful boutique optical store in Buffalo, NY. I became licensed in Florida in 1983 working every facet of the Optical industry, including owning two stores.
My passion is making a difference in my client’s sight, as well as bringing an amazing unique look to their eyewear while building lifetime relationships along the way.

I was born to be in fashion which is what led me to frame styling in New York. After moving to Florida I began working at Grove Opticians. I’ve been there for 29 years and enjoying every minute!!!
Nothing is more rewarding than a client looking in the mirror with a beautiful smile knowing that I was largely responsible for putting it there.
