“Go to a different opticians!”

written by on 08/01/2012

I really wish I had read the reviews before I ordered my glasses. The test was okay but not great, I had better at Boots. When choosing the glasses it wasn't until I'd chosen a pair of frames that I was told they were for men. After looking at the women's frames I chose 2 pairs (bogof) but little did I realise they had plastic lenses so when I picked my glasses up they were so heavy they actually dug into my nose and pushed the skin onto my face. After 2 days I went back to the store and asked for something to be done, they pushed the white thingies up a bit and that was that. I was then told to keep pushing them up to make the glasses more comfortable. I have never had glasses so heavy. I also wasn't happy with the bogof offer, I had to pay extra for thin lenses on my free pair (even though my first pair were thin lenses)and I couldn't have 2 of the same pair.

Also whilst trying my new glasses on I felt fuzzy in them but was told it's because my prescription had changed. Funny how the free pair didn't make me woozy! I wasted nearly £200 on my glasses and they are uncomfortable, still make me feel weird and in my opinion not worth the money I paid. I will never again use these opticians and will go back to Boots where I wished I had stayed!

Please take my advice and do not go to these opticians, you will waste your money.
