Stanton Optical is Making Eye Care Easy in Knoxville

Stanton Optical, a leader in affordable and accessible eye care with over 300 locations across the U.S., is excited to announce the grand opening of its newest store in Knoxville, Tennessee. Located at 6542 Clinton Hwy, Knoxville, TN 37912, this marks the fourth Stanton Optical location in the Knoxville area and the seventh in the state.

Making Eye Care Simple and Accessible

“We’re excited to expand our footprint in Knoxville and continue providing the local community with high-quality, affordable eye care,” said Daniel Stanton, founder and CEO of Stanton Optical. “This new location reinforces our commitment to modernizing the eye care experience for all.”

Stanton Optical focuses on accessibility and convenience, using innovative technology and excellent customer service. From same-day eye exams to virtual try-on tools online, everything is designed with the customer in mind.

Meet Our Spokes-Bird: Stan the Penguin

In 2021, Stanton Optical introduced Stan the Penguin as its official spokes-bird, symbolizing the brand’s adaptability and community values. Penguins are known for their sleek appearance and strong family bonds—qualities that reflect Stanton Optical’s approach to eye care and customer relationships. Like the penguin, Stanton Optical makes the process of getting glasses streamlined, fast, and efficient.
