Specsavers Opticians

I have been a customer of Specsavers for a couple of years now and certainly wish that I had stayed with the local independent optician. Specsavers opticians can be found on many high streets up and down the country and retail glasses for the whole family. Ladies, designer, mens and smaller frames for the kids. In my local one the prices start at £25 and lead up to £125 for the designer frames such as Roxy, Osiris, FCUK and the like. The usual lens options are available such as thin and lights, varis, bifocals, tinted, reactions so on and so forth!! The prices for the glasses include standard single vision lenses.

went leicester branch of specsavers, had eye test, with no deteriation in sight, was told no change on prescription, all seemed ok until I picked up second pair, they immediately seemed out of focus, I said I would try them for 2 days , they were the same so I went back and was told my previous glasses were set out of axis by 20%.. I told the assistant this just wasn't true, I have had the same prescription for a number of years and never have I had them so out of alignment as this second pair, they have booked me in for a second eyetest, (first pair was original lenses with different frames) assistant seemed to insist that D&A were at fault (my last supplier) I told them I would have a second optician look at them if necessary, I am waiting for my next test now

AVOID SPECSAVERS AT ALL COSTS !
Their eye tests are appalling, I was more than a bit concerned after
having mine, as it was conducted so poorly.
I then had further tests at D&A, and vision express within 2 weeks of
the specsavers test, and the results were clear.
D&A, and vision express, results were similar, and completely different from specsavers !
I will never ever walk through their doors again

When choosing an optician the first thing I do will be to visit several around the town centre and simply look at the range of frame styles on display. I have over the years had my glasses bought for me by my parents, been a poor student choosing styles, had a little money to treat myself, and been unemployed and counting those pennies. Therefore to say that I keep coming back to specsavers just because they're the cheapest highstreet optician doesn't hold much water. I really feel that they offer the best range and the best service out there. Specsavers certainly made their name as the budget option for the visually impaired but I have never felt ...  Read the complete review

My visit to the opticians I was long overdue - I had not even been wearing the last pair when I really should have - so thought I would pop in my local Specsavers to see what they had on offer. I was amazed at the wide range of glasses they had to offer and the promotions made their glasses really good value compared to their competitors like Vision Express, Optical Express and Dolland and Achison. I visited my local branch on a Sunday to browse around so it was not really busy. The one thing I hate when I go shopping is being hounded by the staff but during my two hour visit to Specsavers I was only approached once upon entering the shop. This enabled me to ...  Read the complete review
