Our Legacy, Your Vision

Our Legacy

In 1966, Sirac Altindag made a significant mark in Diyarbakır by opening the city’s first optical store. Building on this success, he and his wife expanded their venture to İstanbul by inaugurating a second eyewear shop on Bahariye Street, Kadikoy in 1983. Sirac harbored a deep passion for his profession, and his greatest dream was for his children to share this love for the optical industry.

To nurture this passion, Sirac took his children Diler, Fatih and Cem to optical fairs abroad, exposing them to the latest advancements and trends in the eyewear field. Through these experiences, he aimed to ignite their interest and commitment to the profession. His dedication and efforts paid off as his children embraced the world of eyewear with enthusiasm.

Out of this shared passion and family commitment, CemFa Optik was born in 1987. This new venture symbolized the culmination of Sirac Altindag’s dreams and the beginning of a legacy that would continue to thrive and evolve with the same dedication and love for the optical industry.

This new venture specializes in representing top global eyewear brands, focusing on eyeglasses, eyeglass frames, and sunglasses. By diversifying their offerings, CemFa Gözlük aims to provide a wider range of high-quality eyewear products to meet the varied needs of their clientele.
