We asked our clients what they loved, here's what they said...

“Dear Brian and Richard,

Recently, and on multiple occasions, I have had the absolute delight and pleasure to speak with your talented and highly trained staff.

I have been a glasses wearer for over 20 years now and was so impressed with your store and how evident quality staff recruitment and training is to your company.

I look forward to being a customer for many years.

- Sarah
CLIENT

All of the people that were involved with my visit were friendly, and I strongly felt that the level of competency was high. And importantly, I got the information about my eyes that I needed.

- Michael C
CLIENT

I thought the whole process for booking, greeting on arrival in your store, dealing with the optometrist and selecting my frames/lenses was excellent. I have been getting prescription safety glasses across Australia and NZ for the past 10 years and this was the best experience to date and is a credit to your team.

- Colin S
CLIENT

So helpful with my 4 year old son. From fitting to eye tests, it always goes seamlessly. The team from front of house to our optometrist were amazing. Especially dealing with young children.

- Cory, Sandra & Harry H

- Darnell S
CLIENT

The appointments never feel rushed and they always take their time helping you choose frames. You never feel like another number going through the process.

- Romina I
CLIENT

Friendly, personal and prompt attention

- Muriel H
CLIENT

The efficiency of the whole check up process, very professional, kept me fully informed at each step, friendly manner

- Kerry H
CLIENT

The optometrist I saw was the kindest most lovely person I have ever spoken to. He took the time to explain things and was thorough with the examination yet did not do things to the extreme. The ladies who took my retinal photographs and saw me before the optician were lovely and highly efficient. Fantastic people from every angle.

Frequently asked questions

For most people, every two years is a good guide. However, depending on your age, eye health and family history, you may need to come in more often.

We'll check your vision, update your glasses prescription if needed and have a good look at the health of your eyes. We'll also check for any signs of eye conditions and discuss any concerns you might have.

Absolutely! Not all eye conditions cause noticeable symptoms, especially in the early stages. Regular eye exams help pick up potential problems early and keep your eyes healthy.

An optometrist looks after your general eye health and vision, including prescribing glasses and contact lenses and managing many eye conditions. An ophthalmologist is a specialist eye doctor who can also perform eye surgery.

Definitely! Dry eyes are common and can cause irritation, redness and blurry vision. We can assess what's causing the problem and recommend the best treatment to help keep your eyes comfortable.

Yes! We provide comprehensive children's eye exams, checking their vision, eye health and how well their eyes work together. We can also help manage short-sightedness as children grow. Our optometrist Siok Khim Taylor works in the paediatric clinic at Palmerston North hospital and is an expert in examinations starting at newborn age!
