CBTR Opticians in Old Town Beaconsfield is hands down the very best I've ever encountered. From the moment I walked in, I was welcomed warmly and offered a drink--from a menu that even includes alcoholic options! Their cutting-edge equipment is impressive, and Hayley (the owner) is both extremely professional and unfailingly friendly. In fact, every member of staff delivers the same high standard of service. My eye examination was so thorough that a potential issue was flagged well before it could develop, and Hayley immediately arranged a referral to a specialist, handling all the communication on my behalf. The after-care is just as exceptional: you can message Hayley on WhatsApp with any queries, and she always replies promptly at no extra charge--it's simply part of their top-notch service. The practice stocks an extensive range of designer frames, from classic to avant-garde, and offer premium lenses and finishes to suit every budget. For those of us with more complex prescriptions, CBTR's monthly payment plan is unbeatable--unlimited eye tests plus generous discounts on frames and lenses. My wife and I opted for their family plan, and it's already paid for itself. I cannot recommend CBTR highly enough. It's a joy to support such a committed, independent local business that truly values its customers.

A lovely luxury boutique opticians. Such personal service from Hayley & Terri, in-depth examination…read morewith hospital grade equipment and really helpful advice choosing from their stylish glasses. Nice coffee too. A great addition to old Beaconsfield.

Inexpensive? Nope. Really nice staff with great and caring customer service? Yes, definitely…read more I bought a gorgeous and pricy pair of glasses here a couple of years ago and they've taken care of me ever since. £25 for my eye exam, £90 for my lenses (my vision is quite poor).... not gonna tell you how much I spent on my frames... but all taken care of promptly and with a smile. They even helped me no problem when I wanted to order my contacts in the US (they had to send my prescription) rather than through them because it was cheaper. When I broke said expensive frames (that colour was sadly discontinued), they offered to order two pairs of the same frames in different colours so I could try them out. Sure, you can get inexpensive glasses elsewhere, but this is a small, privately owned optometrist that will really take care of your vision... stylishly!

I've been coming here for years as it has a good range of modern spectacles to wear about town in…read moreLondon and the service is personal and good. Recently I've upgraded to some new Japanese made lenses which are remarkably crisp and better for reading than my previous lenses. The test equipment is very modern and you can now look at your retina on the Apple display if so inclined. I don't change my glasses very often, but I take the tube here whenever I do or for a routine eye test. Islington is a nice part of town so pop down and have a coffee near the canal next time you visit.

After first buying poor-fitting frames, IE Summertown was able to set me up with a better option.read more

Gardiners Opticians is a family run business just off the main stretch in Headington…read more My family and I have been using them for years. It's the kind of place that you go to and they remember your name, your details, and ask you how your holiday was! You can be assured of a 100% friendly, quality and professional service at all times. When I had a problem with my eyes years ago, they fit me in for last minute appointments, explained everything to me and provided an excellent after service. They are totally reliable and I trust them completely.

This is a locally run opticians and Optometrists, and is small and perfectly formed…read more If you want a quick eye test and the newest pair of designer frames, you could go elsewhere, but if you want a more in depth eye exam, or a test for some kinds of visual disturbances, (such as Irlen syndrome or other forms of Dyslexia) than you should start here first! I visited last year for my first full-length eye-test, and the Optician, a very gentle and entertaining chap, really did a fantastic job. He went into great detail to explain various conditions to me, not just the symptoms but the scientific causes, and seemed to enjoy sharing information. The price was good, and the service was excellent.

As the Camberley Vision Express managed to well and truly mess up their customer service to me so…read moreI transferred to this Vision Express in Basingstoke. They've also messed around my brother for his contact lenses so I've stayed well clear of them. The Basingstoke branch quickly sorted out all Camberley's mess in an efficient and polite manner. They're customer service here is absolutely fabulous. They offer the same services as all the Vision Express stores but their customer interface is excellent here. The shop is pristine and they often have sales on glasses frames which i guess they have to do to stay competitive with the likes of Spec Savers.
