 Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Referred by our son who had enjoyed a wonderfully positive experience a couple of weeks ago, I too was absolutely astounded by the unrushed, personalised care, and level of service from the time I made the appointment to picking up my glasses.As a reluctant wearer of glasses, I had no idea that going for an eye test and choosing frames could be reassuring and pleasurable and I am thrilled with them. Thank you!
