Great service and top quality! First pair of progressive lenses needed for mostly reading and PC use so Shafik recommended Hoya iD Workstyle. Very pleased with them as easy to walk around the office. Able to view a wide reading area and across a large room. Getting plenty of positive remarks on the ic!Berlin frames too.

In March, at the first sight test done to my son, 10 years old, we discovered that he has myopia, -2 and -2.25. At the optician's recommendation regarding the lenses specially designed to stop the progression, Hoya miyosmart, I hesitated at first because I did not know the difference between the lenses offered free of charge by the NHS and these. I ordered NHS lenses and in the meantime I started doing my own research on these Hoya lenses. A few days later, my husband and I decided that we would not do experiments on the child's eyes to wait and see if myopia would increase in the comming months

I am so glad I was recommended Eye Opticians, I had a thorough eye examination, nothing like I've had before. The optician made me feel very comfortable, was friendly and explained everything in detail. I really do believe Eye Opticians went above and beyond in giving me a detailed diagnostic. I was provided with an eye care regime including

I had been struggling with headaches and reading in general for a number of years as a student; coloured paper and overlays helped but never completely resolved my discomfort. A member of faculty recommended that I get my eyes tested and go for a visual stress test so I booked an appointment at Eye Opticians. Shafik and his team promptly found that my visual stress could be greatly reduced through prescription colour tinted lenses. In order not to have to wear the colour tinted lenses all the time Eye Opticians offered me prescription lenses with the colour tinted lenses on a separate magnetic

Very nice optimetricians. The eye test was vigorous and short, and they even helped me choose a suitable frame of glasses. I strongly recommend it.
