Bassol Optic

Got my varifocals fitted here after a long period of wearing old reading glasses. The fitting was spot on, they measured my pupil heights carefully and adjusted the frames twice. Lenses arrived clear with no distortion at the edges.

I've been using Bassol for about six years now and I've never had a reason to look elsewhere. Booked my eye test the same way I always do, online, picked a slot that suited, and they had me in and out in under an hour. Frames were sorted the week after when I came back to collect them. The optician remembers my prescription from last time which saves a lot of faffing about.

I'd started getting headaches staring at a screen all day and needed something sorted before a new job started. Went with them because they had a same week appointment and could do blue light lenses. The sign up was quick and the glasses were ready in about five days. Quite pleased, no complaints at all.

I had a look at two high street chains and a couple of online-only options before going with them. The high street ones wanted a fair bit more for the same lenses and the online ones felt like filling in a form and hoping. Here I booked a proper appointment, saw an optician in person and got a clear quote before anything was ordered. Glasses turned up on time and fit well. Happy I went with them.

Snapped my frames on the Tuesday morning and needed them for a meeting. Rang and they fitted me in the same afternoon, sorted the hinge while I waited. Quick, sensible, no fuss at all.

I've been ordering monthly contact lenses from them for a while, so I know the routine well. Reorder reminders come through a few days before I run out and the account page lets me change the box size without ringing anyone. Delivery is usually next day. Only thing is the price is a bit higher than the big online retailers.
