Page 18 THE VILLADOM TIMES I • October 10, 2012 ����� in business H. Rubin Opticians has a clear focus on the community H . Rubin Opticians has been part of the community for over 40 years. This family-owned business has built its reputation for excellence through a competent, detail-oriented staff that pays close attention to each individual’s needs so everyone leaves seeing – and looking – his or her best. Much of H. Rubin Opticians’ success is due to the woman’s touch, which is provided by coowner Penny Ship, long-time employee Dorothy Voitas, and Victoria Solari. These fashionconscious women advise customers on the proper eyeglass frames to fit their face, coloring, budget, Dorothy Voitas, Penny Ship and Victoria Solari lifestyle, and other needs. They give each person, from children to seniors, the attention they require, which often means patiently trying on a number of frames. Because H. Rubin Opticians does not accept insurance, staff members are able to deliver the best service, focusing on the needs of the customers, rather than making concessions to large companies. “We put precision into our frames,” Penny says. “Customers leave with a look that has been designed, but is not necessarily ‘designer.’” H. Rubin Opticians carries all the latest and highest quality in designer and non-designer eyewear, including Gucci, Christian Dior, RayBan and more; European lines such as Face a Face, Lafont, Anne et Valentin, and Theo; and small, independent lines such as Salt and Etnia. The shop regularly hosts private showings so customers can preview a manufacturer’s entire frame collection. Rubin’s has an extensive selection of non-prescription sunglasses and readers. The shop also carries a large selection of eyeglass holder jewelry, including La Loop and Sport Loop holders, and other accessories. Opticians Dana Ship, Larry Gaudiomonte, and Stephen Wolff provide the correct lenses and advise on the latest technology available to suit individual requirements. Dr. Ira Hanlon (Lic. # 27OA00433900) provides eye exams and contact lens service. Most work is done on the premises. Rubin Opticians is located at 240 Godwin Avenue in Midland Park.

Her grandfather and father both enjoyed 40 years of orthodontic practice, and she carries on the tradition of helping patients keep teeth healthy and functional for a lifetime, along the way improving the self confidence that comes from a beautiful new smile. Her professionally trained, highly capable office staff works as a team to assure their patients’ progress and success. Their approach is personal, developing warm relationships with their patient families during and after treatment.
