What a joy it was yesterday getting my eyes tested and ordering new glasses. Staff so professional, helpful and friendly. Second visit to this branch and would certainly recommend.

Never EVER again. AVOID if you're on welfare because they are prejudiced.Went in on Monday accompanied by a carer. I was taken through for the IOP (pressure in the eye) test and one other thing by a very polite but utterly CLUELESS young man. Then, I was VERY BRUSQUELY told that I was ?too early? for my appointment by a week by an ABSOLUTE Karen. No further explanation offered, instead SNEERING and CONDESCENDING questioning like she had never worked with a WELFARE patient before. I told her to forget it.When I got my current glasses from the branch at the Fort 2 years ago, they could not have been more helpful. I explained everything VERY carefully and requested that they include that I'm special needs and require a chaperone AND that I am a MIGRAINE sufferer. I don't care if it was a bad day, a Monday, a week from Christmas or whatever the horrible woman's excuse was? you do NOT treat anyone with that level of contempt, Period! If that's your attitude with a vulnerable welfare patient, I would HATE to see your approach to someone LESS capable. We left without completing the appointment, I will not be returning or booking or even visiting another branch again until the staff are retrained to deal with SPECIAL NEEDS/Welfare patients properly? I sent them a strongly worded email, to which they have conveniently not responded!I am looking into taking my custom to Specsavers because the way I was treated on Monday is absolutely disgusting and 100% wrong. Furthermore, I fully intend to take this much, MUCH further.PS I already filled out your feedback form. I did so on Monday as soon as I got home from the "appointment" and I have yet to receive a response. I will be speaking to Trading Standards about this. I am DISGUSTED.

I handed in 2 boxes of contacts, 60 pairs to change from my previous prescription to my new one, and the person I spoke to said that it was possible, and I'd get them within a week. And now it's been a month and a half, and still no update, I called in and I would have to repurchase the 2 boxes of contacts without even being refunded for the previous boxes of contacts at least.So I wouldn't recommend for anything, except just the eye test, get your glasses from iolla or any other place.I don't understand why I have to pay twice, and not even get a refund.

Terrible company.Only want to sell you expensive coatings. You can get upto 5 coatings free at asda. Frames are either overpriced or rubbish.DONT SHOP HEREASDA ARE MUCH BETTER AND CHEAPER

Booked "contact lens free assessment and trial", turned up a couple of minutes in advance, made myself known and spent the next 15 minutes waiting on a chair as requested while staff melted away one by one, leaving sole member occupied with another customer.What a waste of time.

Really appreciate to the kind and friendly staff. One of the nose pads of my glasses is missing, she changed a matched pair for me and also adjust the tightness of the legs, and those are all for free. That?s really helpful for me.

Very friendly, professional and knowledgeable staff who definitely knew their job.Sorted out my eye health issue,No pressure to upsell products.Understood my financial situation and had frames that I really like that also suited my budget.I thoroughly recommend Vision Express, Buchanan Galleries if you are looking for new glasses.???

I went for my eye exam and mentioned I was having flashes on my eye. The staff were very professional and looked after me. I had a scan for the first a time and it showed something that wasn?t obvious in the usual pictures.the day. I now have a hospital appointment from a letter they sent to the hospital.

It is a great experience with very friendly staff with a high amount of collection choices they offer. The only problem it takes 4,5 days for making products ready to use

Very nice place and very nice staff. It was my first time there and I got 10 minutes late due to my prior appointment. They were very kind to reschedule the appointment on the same day. The staff front desk and optician both were very thorough in their examination. They did not hurry me in the process and were extremely patient with me. I will definitely recommend the store and company to my friends for any eye support.
