Hultins Optik is a private optician’s owned by Åsa, Elsi, Peter and David. Together, we combine experience, expertise and a flair for design to provide you with both professional eye care and a unique range of glasses.

Every brand, collection and frame is hand-picked to create a range that few can match. With us, you’ll find, for example:
Fashion houses: Celine, Dior, Saint Laurent, Loewe, Tom Ford, Gucci
Classics: Moscot, Oliver Peoples
Designer frames: Mykita, Götti, Cutler and Gross
Luxury handmade frames: Ahlem, Nirvan Javan, Savile Row, Tom Davis
Scandinavian designers: Oscar Magnuson, Metro, Vasuma

For the most part, we stock the same brands in both shops. There are some slight differences: the Södermalm shop leans a little more towards trends, whilst the Östermalm shop leans a little more towards luxury.
Brands that you’ll only find in the Östermalm shop include Cartier, Chanel and TVR. In Södermalm, you’ll find, for example, Balmain, Vasuma, Loewe and a wider range of Celine.

Yes, at our shop in Östermalm we offer Tom Davies, made-to-measure frames that are tailored to your face and style. Savile Row frames can also be customised in terms of style and size, and in addition to that, we stock several brands where the models are available in a range of sizes, such as Moscot.

Yes, in both our branches.

An OCT (Optical Coherence Tomography) scanner is an advanced imaging technology that creates detailed 3D images of the eye’s internal structures, such as the retina and the optic nerve. Using OCT, we can detect early changes and signs of eye conditions such as glaucoma, macular degeneration and diabetic retinopathy. It is a painless, quick and completely safe examination that gives us a deeper insight into your eye health.
