About Union Optical – Trusted Eye Care in Duluth, MN

Meet Your Local Eye Care Team

For over 40 years, Union Optical has proudly served the people of Duluth with expert eye care.


From bold, funky frames to work-ready safety eyewear, we offer a one-of-a-kind experience where every face is familiar and every patient is treated like family.


We keep things small so we can do things right. Whether you're visiting us for the first time or have been with us for years, we're here to help you see clearly, confidently, and comfortably.

Located inside Duluth’s historic Labor Temple building, Union Optical has always been closely connected to the working community. We work closely with building trades professionals, offering custom safety frames and eyewear that match both jobsite needs and off-the-clock style.


We understand what hard work looks like, and we’ve built our business around supporting it.
