I have worn glasses for 25 years and have always been very careful with them. After the Daily Mail review last year I decided to go to ASDA for my new glasses. I selected vari vocals with scratch resistant lenses, and was advised to take the £200.00 glasses which be a much better quality than the £100.00 glasses advertised. After approximately 10 months I noticed I was getting tiny scratches on the lenses. ASDA's reponse was to blame me for the way I cared for my glasses.I have read other reviews online and can only endorse the opinion of having an excellent eye test but supplied with very poor quality lenses.

I find there service very very slow, this could be due to my prescription, but I often ... Read the complete review

This is a review of Asda opticians and my experience of the contact lens assessment and the procedure that you have to go through in order to buy contact lenses. I chose Asda opticians for several reasons: they were recommended to me by a family member, the store was located a short bus ride away and they seemed to be the cheapest around ...

I was fortunate not to need glasses until later in life. It all started with my vision not being quite as sharp as it had always been, so thought I'd better book an eye test. The optician confirmed I had what they called "age deterioration" - in other words, I was getting old! To make me feel better she said it usually ... Read the complete review

I work a lot with computers and, unfortunately, this has left me a certain 'fuzziness' at long-distance (especially after a long day at the office). The last time I visited the opticians was around ten years ago, so I booked myself in to the local Asda opticians for a check up. Overall I must say that I was ... Read the complete review

Having been with my old opticians since childhood, I never really shopped around before now and the reason I decided to now is that I no longer buy monthly contact lenses on direct debit as I wear my glasses most of the time now. However, I do want some daily disposables for special occasions and decided to try Asda out to see what they ... Read the complete review

Asda Opticians, Both myself and my mum have used Asda opticians at the Kingswood store in Hull. For me personally i found them to be extremely efficient when conducting eye tests giving details of the results and advising on what glasses would best suit me. When explaining the results they used laymans terms so that i understood ... Read the complete review
