I saw Jose for an eye test. He did a very thorough examination and gave me some expert advice on how to best manage my dry eye condition. I just wish I had known about this place sooner. I'm converted. Really pleased with the service.

Having visited York two years ago I purchased a pair of frames and was so impressed with the girls my girlfriend and I bought another two frames when we were back last week. Thanks ladies and hopefully see you again when back.
