Excellent experience. No rushing. Learned so much about my eyes. Completely different experience to all other eye examinations I have EVER had. Geoff has a true passion for eyes and equipment for a deeper exploration. From the moment I made contact with this Service to arriving I was made very welcome and put at ease. First eye appointment I have enjoyed. Came away feeling heard, seen and confident.

Report
I had been a patient of Mr McConvilles for twenty years. On my last appointment back in February 2018, I found that I could not actually see out of my glasses. I went back to Mr McConville and explained to him. He was extremely rude and could not accept that the wrong lens were put into the frames. Unfortunately I had paid for the glasses in full and he refused to give me any part of my money back.
I went to another optician and he confirmed that the wrong lens were in the frames and that I would never be able to see out of them. Mr McConville refused to accept any liability, despite the fact that

Geoff McConville is an outstanding optician, his staff are excellent and it is all set in a beautiful Georgian townhouse. I visited Geoff as some leading international optometrists had failed to provide a solution to my eye issues. Geoff's attention to detail and innovation in coming up with something that would work for me was very impressive, and the after care even more so. Excellent value for money too and a very fine selection of frames. Can't recommend highly enough.
