Previous visits to opticians' had been a bit traumatic and I never felt I could trust their measurements, or my own judgement. I walked past this shops so many times I forgot it was here and was drawn in by the promise of a discount. The lovely Indian couple who run the shop were extremely understanding and helpful - I kept returning with various friends before I finally settled on a style of frame and booked my appointment (I am sure you are supposed to have your prescription ready when you start looking for glasses ). I was extremely impressed that they remembered my name and very embarrassed that I don't remember theirs. I felt in good hands and pleased that I wasn't rushed through the examination. I now own a beautiful pair of glasses which I actually enjoy wearing. A rare fiend of a place where you still received good old-fashioned and very personal service. Highly recommended

With a warm…read morefriendly welcome, I was able to get great information and advice on the spot without an appointment or being asked to come back. I didn't feel like I was being rushed and time and patience was given. Came back, following such a pleasant first experience, to have my eyes tested. This again was done on the spot (although you can, of course make appointments) with a through examination and questioning about my sight. Any 'silly' questions I had were answered. Optician was friendly and able to break down any clinical terms in layman's to be fully understood. Advice given but not pushed on you and felt no obligation to purchase anything further. Whilst they may not have your usual high street designer frames, they have a good selection of designer frames to select from. Of course, they are also happy to put their lenses in frames you may have already. Having gone through a comprehensive review of my eyesight I got a couple of new pairs of prescription glasses. I feel like I am living in a HD world now in comparison to what I had before. Thank you!

Lucky for us, CrossEyes has Saturday hours and I was able to drop by without an appointment. We received fantastic service from Panos, the owner, and Astrid. They were friendly and helpful and repaired the glasses in less than 3 minutes. My son's vision is 20/100 without glasses, so they saved our vacation by basically restoring his sight! I highly recommend this shop for their skill and willingness to accommodate.

There were 4 employees, and a middle aged blonde lady with glasses was very frazzled, saying to wait, then taking other customers. She had a very rude tone, after telling us that they only do eye exams on fridays, she referred us to Vision Express. And, that's the only reason I'm giving them 2 stars because the employee at Vision express was very kind and helpful. You should know if a customer is asking for an emergency eye exam, it's probably because they can't see where they're going. You're in a vulnerable state, and should be more understanding!
