Ive used Mark for years and recently had a pair of single vision beautiful 'retro style' acetate…read moreframes dispensed by him. Great styling by Mark he really knows what suits your face but most of all coupled with superb lenses & therefore vision. Service as always was quick and professional. Mark is also fun to be with too. In summary, if you've not tried Mark - you will get all of the above and at a realistic price

I visited Optical Express for an eye test after booking online. Be aware that the Call Centre in…read moreGlasgow will repeatedly ring you (and not leave a voicemail if you're unavailable) until they speak to you directly to confirm the appointment. They then call a couple of days before the appointment to confirm again, which is welcome but can be irritating if you miss their calls. On visiting the store, I was met at reception promptly and seen for an initial assessment within a couple of minutes. Unfortunately, I then had to wait 25 mins for the eye test itself. Thankfully the reception area is bright and spacious, with LCD TV's, magazines and complimentary drinks machines. Other than the waiting time, I can't fault the competency of the staff, the facilities or the eye test process - but I can't recall a single member of staff smiling or being particularly warm. It was as though they were just going through the motions. A shame - a smile goes a long way to making you feel welcome!

All around fantastic optician. They're not the cheapest in the city, but the price point is…read moremid-range and you get catered customer service like that expected at a high-end shop. The staff take the extra time to order in a great selection of frames - from designers worn by Beyoncé to affordable but chic and unique shapes. I walk by here all the time going to the coffee shop next door and when my annual eye appointment was due, decided to give them a try. I'm so glad I did. Booking an appointment is really simple. The optometrist I saw was really thorough, great at informing me about my eyes and tests conducted, and took the time to listen and answer all of my questions without rushing. I've recently had some optical migraines and she was great at making recommendations for proper eye care and next steps. I ordered a sixth month supply of contacts and a new set of glasses. The staff made sure to calculate all my options for discounts to ensure I got the best price on contacts. When picking up my contacts I also wanted to try on frames. The staff member assisted me around the shop. He has a great eye for fashion and was able to pick out perfect frame shapes and colors that suited my style. He was never pushy and even recommended a cheaper frame since I don't wear glasses every day. They are all about building great relationships and providing excellent customer service - not just making a sale. I really like that. If you're looking for an optician with excellent customer care and a wide selection of beautiful frames, give Piccadilly a visit.
I haven't yet bought a pair of glasses from here but just one look in the window alone never mind…read moreupon walking inside my just brain explodes. I love wearing glasses and if I could afford a pair for everyday of the week then I would have a wardrobe just for them. Piccadilly has a great range of designers which also means the frames alone are on the expensive end of the spectrum before you even add the cost of your lenses. What you have to remember though is that this is something you will wear everyday for at least two years till your next eye test and so you want them to look good. I always find it really hard choosing a new pair of glasses and visit lots of opticians to check out the ranges and snap myself in a host of frames to help with my decision making. If you are looking for a distinct, quality frame then you can't fail to find one in here, it just might take you a while to decide which pair.

Just a warning about Brittain opticians on Harborne High Street…read more Today we discovered, thanks to the children's hospital, that my 4 year old Grandson has been given the wrong perscription in his glasses from Brittain opticians. The hospital has confirmed that he has damage now to his eyes due to there negligence. The staff at Britain's have admitted they have given him the wrong perscription. There only offer was they would do an eye test and give him new glasses. The hospital have said this isn't allowed as his eye problems are complex and are only to be revised by the hospital. When we informed Brittons of this, they refused to let us talk to the manager. They refused to give us any email or phone number of a governing body of optitions. And ultimately when we kept asking they Banned us from contacting them or going into the store. AVOID AT ALL COSTS! My Grandson has permanent damage to his eyes because of thier negligence!

So I have now booked in for a contact lens appointment. In all really pleased & satisfied & will be recommending them to my friends.

I tend to avoid them like the plague, however my husband needed to update his prescription and get a new pair of glasses. We were looking for an inexpensive pair of frames that would look good. We weren't bothered by all the designer gumpf as we have two small children, the youngest of which likes nothing more than to pick up Daddy's glasses and play with them by pulling them in every direction possible. We were also looking for stylish frames that weren't grey-it's amazing how grey seems to disappear into the background and I've lost count of the number of times we've lost valuable minutes of our time hunting around for the blessed things. Suffice to say that here you can find all the designer gear but also good looking but inexpensive frames that have a splash of colour which should make themeasier to spot around the house. Nice service, nice product and helpful opening hours too.

The service provided here is fantastic…read more The staff are very friendly and Mr Roberts provides a thorough examination of my eyes, taking his time to ensure my prescription is accurate. There is also a great range of glasses to chose from, with lots of different designer frames and also some cheap but stylish ones. I have always left the shop satisfied and would not go anywhere else to have my eyes tested. Top marks from me !
