Our History: Balester Optical was started in 1934 by Fred Balester in Wilkes-Barre, Pennsylvania where the company built a strong reputation for quality and service. The Balester family remained involved in the business until September 2012 when the company was purchased by Essilor. In 2014 the name was changed to Balester Digital Optical to better reflect the changing optical business.
We have taken the quality and service you have come to know from the Balester name and added the latest digital technology, forming Balester Optical. Dedicated to the ideas of Technology, Speed, and Service, Balester has a history of being at the leading edge of the optical industry. We continually reinvest in our state-of-the-art laboratory and in our people, knowing that the right tools and the right people yield the right results. Thank you for your business!.
