I dropped by because of reviews on Yelp, wasn't going to buy anything necessarily but came out with a really nice pair of Oliver Peoples/ Garrett Leight sunglasses. They were no means cheap but they fitted them just perfectly. Unfortunately I lost them in Austin Texas and didn't know whether I'd be able to get another pair. They ordered them back in and gave me a discount on the original price for me since I was basically buying them twice. I also ordered a pair of lenses for my old Ray Bans, they're so helpful and quick to respond to emails. Very chatty, know about your face shape and what suits, but don't do the hard sell. If you're looking for cheap then go to your average high street store but if you've saved a few bob it's a good investment.

M&S Opticians is located on the Second Floor of Marks and Spencer on Market Street, Manchester,…read moreit's one of 6 Opticians branches which Marks and Spencer have located on the second floor of the newly refurbished store, right by the Cafe. The staff here were super friendly, from the fantastic optician Mohammed who even warranted a compliment from Boots when I picked up my new glasses, to the lovely women who took my details and run the floor. They did have a good selection of glasses, I only went to another optician after my eye test here for my glasses as they stocked the Dolce and Gabanna brand which they don't seem to stock here, plus they were running a better promotional offer to make it worthwhile. It was so easy getting an appointment, you can make them in-store or online, they did move my appointment earlier but this was better for me, they would have kept it at the same time but didn't want me to be rushed during the test and then looking at picking up new glasses. They did close early on one occasion, I did turn up five minutes before closure, after making them aware this was addressed. 4* - Great Opticians, solve problems well when they do occur. Having a better selection of glasses to compete with Boots, Vision Express and Specsavers should be a priority. It is a shame in the refurb they didn't improve technology such as with the eye testing machines instead of the heavy lense frames, similar to Vision Express.

The store has been refurbished within the past year or two, meeting the new Vision Express branding, the new logo and interior of the store look much more sleek and modern overall. One thing I like about this store, is they have a fantastic selection of designer frames, including brands such as Gucci, Tom Ford, Hugo Boss and Burberry, without locking them down behind a key, this makes the in-store experience much simpler and interactive, as you can try on glasses in your own time, without having a staff member standing over you and chatting, it's much more relaxing, independent and peaceful - This is a huge advantage over my local Vision Express at Manchester Arndale, which seems to lock them all away. My biggest criticism with the selection of eyewear overall would be the need to move towards frames, that have thick temple tips, I'm not sure if this is the way fashion is going, but I find them to be really uncomfortable, and the selection with the thinner rims is much less. The staff here seemed friendly and knowledgeable, and I also appreciate Vision Express' return policy, I was originally unhappy with the discomfort of my original glasses, caused by the thick temple tips and weight, and I was able to swap my glasses over, paying just the difference in the cost of the frame, no questions asked. The prices for designer frames are also competitive compared to high-street rivals, I actually found them cheaper compared to Boots nearby, and buying direct with some manufacturers such as Oakley (The cost of buying lenses directly from Oakley is insane!) 4* - Overall, this Vision Express selection has good service, competitive pricing and a good returns policy, a few minor flaws, but they've helped won my custom over, and I hope it will continue.

There seemed to be an abundance of staff with not much to do but I'm not complaining as this meant there was no waiting around to get help. They stock all the latest popular designer frames and styles including Gucci and Police that you find in the big chains. Their special offers are just as good too with a free second pair of spectacles including bifocals and varifocals. If you try varifocals but don't get on with them they give you thirty days in which to exchange them for standard bifocals.

Great experience. After having contracted a condition where it's hard for me to be exposed to…read morebright lights (meaning I'll need to constantly wear shades), I went into (almost) every optician in Liverpool to browse for prescription-based sunglasses, and for an overall price comparison; from Blankstone to Boots to Vision-Express to Bennet and Batty's, and then some. Now all of the opticians just listed and good, I wouldn't discourage going to any of them, however, I just find Millican to be the best, for several reasons: 1. They seem to have the widest range of sunglasses: Specifically Ray-Bans. I can't comment on other glasses they have in stock (though I will say they do seem to have a very large collection overall), but they definitely seem to have the largest collection of sunglasses, especially Ray-Ban's. They're also the only optician's that i've been to that has the Lennon Glasses, the perfectly rounded sunglasses that John Lennon wore. 2. Their prices are relatively cheap: I won't say their the cheapest as I forgot the prices for the other opticians, however, they are relatively cheap in terms of price. I believe of the 5 - 6 opticians I went to, around half of them quoted a price of under £300, the other half £300 - £450. (Note: I also requested the sunglasses to be reflective, and again their prescription based, not to mention Ray-Bans are designer wear, so this adds to the total cost of the sunglasses). So basically, in sum, they won't rip you off. 3. Very friendly and professional staff: There's not a single person there who didn't provide exemplary service. Now I won't slate any of the previously mentioned opticians based on their service, and I generally didn't feel like I wasn't welcomed in any of them. However, the ladies at Millican really do seem to give a damn. They're just on a level of magnitudes more friendly, approachable, and attentive. Again, it's not that other opticians provide bad service, but rather it's that Millican provides great service. For instance, the ladies didn't actually know about my condition at the very start (as I kept that to myself). There was lots of friendly small talk as I was browsing, and one of them asked me if I was wearing them to go on holiday, to which I replied that I was not, but that I have this condition of mine. At this point she became much more involved, providing feedback such as "This particular shade might look a bit feminine" (they were rosy-gold shades), "This shape might suit you more", and even suggested between two similar looking shades the ones that were bigger, as they block out more sunlight (which would help with my condition). I really appreciated her input, and it's commendable that she was much more involved once she knew the sunglasses was going to be a permanent fixture, rather than a temporary thing. When I finally picked a pair I like (am very picky), I asked if they could be ordered in various shades so as to try them out. It turned out that the company who issues was about to close on that the same day for 3 weeks, so the lady asked one of her colleagues to try and get in contact whilst we discuss various details, and I must say, they treated it like a military operation. There was no messing around on their behalf, they just did it. Overall it was an absolute pleasure visiting Millican's, and to rate them anything other than a 5-star service would be an injustice.
