Specsavers

Large and well established opticians situated in the Five Lane Ends Morrisons complex.
As a family that all wear glasses, I’ve seen quite a lot of this place over the years. It’s always been easy to get appointments and speak to someone on the phone. They have extended opening hours one night a week for those unable to get there during work hours.
When-​ever I’ve taken the kids in, I’ve always been really well looked after. Their staff are patient with young children who can be frightened of such an environment and have fixed my children’s glasses many times without charge.

This is quite a large store and very clean and tidy. It gets very busy and there is a shortage of chairs so be prepared to stand. It isnt that easy to get an appointment at the weekend or after school but if you are ok to wait a couple of weeks you will eventually get one.
The staff are lovely and friendly and very helpful.
They do all the recommended tests from the squirting the air into your eyes to check the pressure to the normal eye test with the different glasses on.
The choice of glasses is a really good range from the nhs ones and the cheap ones which dont look cheap anymore as they are lovely. Then they do the designer ones with the special offer of buy one pair and get one free.
They also offer hearing tests and sell hearing aids and contact lenses.
