Unfortunately I went to specsavers. Had been once and had mild reading glasses. Returned for a checkup. First they tried to sell me hearing aids even though I have excellent hearing. Then although I explained to the optician that I only had reading glasses and I rarely needed them except if the text is tiny or I am very tired, they first tried to sell be bifocal glasses. I reiterated that I didn't need them as I only used glasses infrequently. Then they tried to tell me I could use them at the dinner table to see in the distance? I explained that this was improbable as There is no text on food and I don't wear my reading glasses at the table. Then he told me I could get glasses that had focus over various distances for when i'm at the computer. I again explained that I never use them in work at all. Then he said my prescription had changed and I needed new glasses. The sales person then asked me to buy new glasses. I explained that I already had excellent frames barely used and asked could I not use them and just buy replacement lenses-she looked totally disgusted and devastated. By the time I got my glasses I lost all confidence in the place. Their only interest was in selling me products not in my eye-care. I felt they sold me lenses that were way too strong and I think I didn't need new glasses at all as I was fine with the two pairs I already had. I was so discouraged I actually paid another optician two days lated to check my eyes and they said the specsavers prescription was too strong for my eves. Do yourself a favour and avoid this place at all cost this place.
