I have been a customer of Brompton's for many years, and can't understand why anyone would want to go elsewhere. They tick all the boxes I would want in a competent, fun, yet professional opticians.
The optometrists are friendly, and really know their stuff I have been introduced to a new type of contact lens, which has enabled me to wear my lenses all day long again. Having previously been a client at a well known chain, the concept of changing brand or type of contact lens was never discussed, in fact I can't remember having even being asked if I was happy with what I was getting out of my lenses. Also re: previous comments at £40.00 a year for as many interim appointments as I need, I reckon it's pretty good value. I have been in on more than one occasion after a heavy night out, not knowing whether my lenses were in or out, and I was seen and sorted out immediately, at no charge!
Now the glasses themselves. well, they have one of the most diverse frame ranges I have ever seen in an opticians. They have everything from major designer brands to wacky and wonderful handmade ranges, the likes of which I have never seen before! It's worth mentioning though, that I have seen people from all walks of life in the practice, and they all seem to be catered for, regardless of financial means. Every time I've bought my glasses here, I come away feeling like I really had fun choosing them, rather than it being a chore, and I never feel like I've been 'upsold'. They give you genuine advice, and help you choose what really suits, rather than what is most expensive. Plus I always seem to pull when I wear my new specs!!
I don't want to witter, but really? 1 star? I can't consider anything less than 5! read more
