My kids get their glasses there but no way I would change my business to here. This is purely driven by my most recent interaction where by I simply enquired about having my glasses adjusted there. The immediate response was that they would not be liable for any breakage and when I asked does the lady break many her response was that she's worked there for seven years and she's broken loads! How do you expect to win new business if you have that sort of customer response and experience?
It is generally taken that glasses bought elsewhere may not be covered for breakage but then there's a better way to communicate this message, there also other options that a business could implement whereby they give options on paid for services etc. But it seems to me that many people who work in these small businesses need better training not only to improve the quality of the service given but also for the survival of local businesses.

Thank you for fixing my glasses today. As usual the staff were lovely, even in these difficult times. It's odd to go to an opticians & have your temperature taken, but it made me feel safe and obviously it is so important that it's done to ensure the safety of the staff.
