I was looking for a new eye Dr for my 1 year old son, husband and myself after moving to Guelph 3…read moreyears ago. I found Edinburgh Optometry online and gave them a call. We just had our appointment this past Wednesday with Dr. Thiessen, and he was absolutely amazing! The whole staff is super friendly and easy to talk to. I was worried my son would have a freak out with having lights shined in his eyes but Dr. Thiessen was so awesome with him and was able to keep him calm and happy. He was so informative and easy to talk to and discuss any concerns I have for myself or my son. The nurse helping me pick new glasses was so fun to deal with, gave me so many options and opinons on what looked good. When I was finished and bought my new glasses they told me it would be about 2 weeks... they called me 2 days after my appointment to tell me they are ready! Such a quick turn around! I am so beyond pleased with our experience with this Optomerty Clinic, I actually look forward to my future appointments with them :) Thanks Edinburgh Optomerty!

They were completely booked but Dr MacNeill was able to squeeze me in. It turns out I have an eye infection and my contact lens was scratched as well. She provided me with drops, home treatment supplies and advice and a new temporary lens until I get home to see my regular doctor. The entire staff was extremely professional, friendly, responsive and took great care of me. Very grateful for their help. If you are looking for an optometrist, look no further!

After being a patient of this practice for over 25 years, I was affected by the optometrists' job…read moreaction, as I am a senior. (Although I am in favour of the government ensuring pay equity for Canadian optometrists, I believe the job action was an unprofessional choice which only impacted patients and had no impact on government.). Covid also had prevented me from seeking an appointment prior to vaccines coming available. Because of these delays, I was overdue for an eye exam and my glasses were becoming scratched and coatings flaking off. I could not even get a replacement pair because my last prescription was over 2 years old. Once the job action was suspended I phoned for an appointment and was told I would need to go on a waiting list. I was initially OK with this as I suspected there would be some delay. However, when my wife (who is not a senior) phoned the practice, she was given an appointment immediately. I then tried again to get an appointment and was told I had to wait. This tells me one thing - that this practice cares more about money than the health of its patients, I don't believe this is in the spirit of the optometrists' oath as health professionals. If you want to ensure that you are supporting a professional optometrist who genuinely cares about your vision and health, please look up the positive reviews of other optometrists in Guelph and choose one.

They were ready in a week and we are so happy! I have to say the best part is that the staff here is so honest, they don't try to sell you the most expensive pair of glasses - they will tell you nope those aren't right for your face shape. It's so refreshing. We both found pairs we loved! Even though I live on the other side of the border now, I still come back here for glasses. That's saying a lot :)

In January 23 I began seeing Dr.Tessel after things became blurry in one of my eyes and light was…read morepainful. I had seen him many times durning January when I was given an eye exam. Now I need progressives which before I barely wore reading glasses and had no problems with distance. For years the retired Dr. Neff would tell me my prescription and I'd go to the dollar store because he knew I was low income. I picked out a nicer pair of frames because these glasses were meant to be worn all the time. I got a middle of the line progress lens because they are expensive and my plan didn't pay that much. When I picked them up, I said right away I didn't like them. Reading was hard and distance looked the same with or without the glasses. I was told to give them a chance. They didn't work for me and I was extremely frustrated. At the same time my eyes had gotten bad again so back to a new Dr, Dr.Wells. Now it's march I have glasses that I can't wear because I can't see but apparently it's because my eyes are irritated again. So once again, After everything is cleared up I get a new prescription of progressives, and when I get these, I say the same thing they don't feel right. I feel like I have to wear them on my forehead to see. And again, I am told take them home wear them for a few weeks you'll get used to them. Sadly it doesn't end there my eyes get irritated again and I'm back in May. This time I'm using double sided tape to tape glasses above eyebrows which I have told them and that I have no issues with seeing distance. I now have a pair of $900 reading glasses that I tape to my head. They are way too big for my head so they slide down. They fixed the arms to make smaller and digs in back of head and gives me a headache. Finally I asked talked the progressives out, just give me reading glasses. Again I couldn't read with them on unless I hold things 26-28 inches away I called again. And was told it was normal but I think see thought 12inches but I said arms length. She ask if I want to come in and see the doctor but of course I had Covid so I said no. I tried calling back to make appointment and to see what was going to happen with the difference in the price of glasses. I own a pair of $900 unusable reading glasses not the $900 progressives lens. I blocked my number and called on oct 4th after numerous messages not being returned finally I was told I'd get an answer in two days. So I still have eye problems to the point now that I can't barely see. I haven't heard from them and an answering machine takes calls so I have not had any returned calls. I have called 142 times since May and twice a week since October, it's all on my phone. Sadly you make appointments to pick up glasses and when you say no these are not right that should be it because I had another eye infection. They allow me to continue to sit and wait for my money. And probably going blind doing it.
