CLAUDIA K is a locally owned, family operated optical store specialising in the art and science of selecting and dispensing stunning eyewear.

The store in central Motueka was opened in April 2009. In the days of global chain stores there must be an alternative for those still looking forĀ  world-class eyewear and expert advice on the art of eyewear selection.

Our desire is to create a stimulating environment from which we can deliver our knowledge & passion for eyewear - an environment that is both, inviting and refreshing - an environment that allows us to show you how to select inspiring eyewear you will love and treasure - an environment where you will be assured our undivided attention - and last but not least an environment where it is a pleasure to work.

We know that we are on an exciting and promising journey.

"Progress is not possible without deviation from the norm".
