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!

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.

This is genuinely one of the best opticians in london if you have a complex prescription and like a…read morebit of style. The place is reasonably priced but is certainly on the premium end. That said, you will look good and be able to see yourself in the mirror after. Firstly Jonathan, the owner is, to say the least, eccentric. You will hear his life story with a wonderful smile and at the end he will recommend frames for you that are just perfect. He seems to have a total handle on style and knows whats in and out. You cannot go wrong with him. The experience with the testing was also wonderful. The optician (whose name I've sadly forgotten) spent over an hour testing my eyes and noted a decade long error in my prescription all while my partner was engaged in a (very long) conversation with Jonathan. I ended up buying two pairs of glasses with high index lenses for around £1000 and three month's supply of 'toric' contact lenses. I been using them ever since and people have (for the first time ever) noticed how good they looked! This place has my full and hearty recommendation!

Seems underwhelming at first but the glasses are not all presented outside. The moment we walked…read morein, we got immediately helped by Jonathan. We believe he is the owner and an optician at the shop. Jonathan looked at my husband for a moment and he instantaneously presented him with choices of glasses that best suits him. Jonathan was like a magician getting out surprises from his magic box. He is also very knowledgeable about new trend for eye wear and what look you want to project. He was really helpful and attentive to all our questions and concerns. However If you are the type of person who wants to be just left alone while shopping around for glasses, then you might find him abrassive. As for our experience, it was lovely and we definitely recommend him.

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.
