Battin Opticians is a locally owned and operated family eyecare practice started in 1951 by James V. Battin and currently owned by Joseph W. Battin Sr. and Dr. Joseph W. Battin Jr. Our practice supports independent optical providers for eyewear and optical equipment. We are also committed to each individual patient and customer providing the latest and advanced technology to suite each individual need for contact lenses, glasses, treatment of eye disease, and eye health examinations. Local artists are commissioned for web design, signs, and artwork. We sponsor a variety of local charity events most recently the Ride for Roswell in which our team has raised over $9,000. At Battin Opticians our team of eyecare professionals, all born and raised in Buffalo, are committed to the growth and revitalization of Buffalo as a whole while serving each member of the community.
