GOOD OPTICS: Buying new eyewear is the fourth most stressful purchase one can make, after a house, a car, and a swimsuit. That helps to explain the success of DELLA OPTIQUE (2589 W. Broadway, 604 742-3937, DellaOptique.com), which celebrates its 10th anniversary this year. Look for brands like Alain Mikli, Chanel, and Vancouvers very own Spectacle Eyeworks (pictured above: Lucian glasses from their retro collection, $290).
