Rich History
John Scheuerman, Sr. founded Sherman Optical in 1939 at Third and Pike in downtown Seattle. Throughout the years, our business expanded with offices throughout the Seattle area. Sherman Optical has been managed by the Scheuerman family for 70 years. John Scheuerman Jr. took over from John, Sr. and in 1975, John, Jr. passed the store to his son Fred. Fred kept one individual store running, and today Fred's son, Mike, runs the store with him.
Tradition of Service
Fred and Mike are keeping the same family tradition and values that have lasted throughout the years: customer satisfaction and quality work at reasonable prices.
What our customers say:
Thank you so very much for restoring my magnified sight. My telescopes are better aligned than before the frame broke. Thank you to the father & son duo that have give me a peaceful, magnified week!
