The Optical Superstore

I’ve always frequented the Optical Superstore since I started getting my eyes tested in primary school (Aah, the preparedness of a mostly bespectacled family!) and have pretty much always had good experiences with them.
I was quite pleased to find I had one nearby when I moved house — even if it is such an itty bitty one! They manage to fit an awful lot in such a small space, and the service tends to be very efficient and friendly too.
Standout mentions should go to the guy behind the counter (not sure what the job title would be, they seem to do more than just ‘receptionist’ would imply) who helped me make the final decision on my new frames a few months ago and to the optician I saw last week who is an absolute goddess at putting in and taking out contact lenses. Normally my strong blink reflex keeps even the most experienced hands at bay, but she seems to have a special gift. I would recommend her to anyone trying contacts for the first time.
