Vision Express Reviews

"I recently had a disappointing experience with Vision Express at Villagio Mall in Qatar. Two weeks after purchasing a pair of shiny black sunglasses, I noticed significant discoloration on parts of the frame, with the shiny finish turning matte. Believing this issue to be covered under the product's insurance, I returned to the shop for assistance. However, the response I received was far from satisfactory.\r\n\r\nThe supplier attributed the damage to my fault, vaguely blaming it on a \"chemical\" interaction, without specifying the type of chemical. This accusation was made despite the fact that the sunglasses had not been exposed to any chemicals under my care. This leads me to suspect that the product's quality is to blame, possibly failing to withstand the sun's heat or reacting to common substances.\r\n\r\nThe supplier's quick dismissal of my concerns seemed like an attempt to avoid providing a replacement or repair. This experience has left me questioning the quality of the products sold at Vision Express and the integrity of their customer service. I urge potential customers to consider my experience before making a purchase at this location."

"We went to the Godalming vision express Opticians to buy glasses for me and my wife. There was a 4 min delay to our 1st appointment due to a parking issue. Surprisingly a lady came one minute after we enter the shop and told us their computer system is down and they have to do everything manually. Thus, they won't be able to compensate that 5min delay and we need to book a new appointment. She was behaving so rudely as she is giving us glasses for free of charge. We politely cancel our both appointments and stepped out thinking never to returned to them again."

"Had an appointment for contact lenses health and eye test. Was refused because didn\u2019t a copy of the actual prescription, showing the date and optometrists signature but had an email from Specsavers with confirmation current prescription. Checked on website it said doesn\u2019t need prescription, called customer service they told me same thing. Manager from Tesco Elmers End Beckenham need more customer service training she is very rude and unprofessional doesn\u2019t know how to deal with customers. Very disappointing Vision Exspress."

"Fake glasses"

"I have been going to the Croydon store for 14 years, in recent years the service hasn\u2019t been great but I was honestly too lazy to move. Most of the time I would go to VE at Westfield or in Holborn anyway because the Croydon store have given both me and my Mum, the wrong prescription in new glasses before. They completely messed up my Brother\u2019s glasses also so now he goes to Boots. \r\n\r\nHowever, after my last eye test, my glasses were scratched by the store (inner corner by the nose bridge, identical scratches on both lenses) I believe when the arms were being tightened. As I wear contact lenses I didn\u2019t wear them on the way out so didn\u2019t notice until the next morning. I called the store and they said I\u2019d need to bring them in. I did so and received the most disgusting service from Robert the Store Manager. He basically accused me of lying and scratching the lenses myself. I\u2019m lucky my partner was with me as a witness. He was aggressive, accusatory, didn\u2019t even acknowledge me in the beginning and spoke mostly to my partner. His aggression was so vile I called the Head Office and suggested they review the store CCTV. \r\n\r\nDue to the pandemic I haven\u2019t yet had time to change opticians but I will be doing so when my next eye test is due. I cannot believe the treatment by a so called Manager. It\u2019s also worth noting that it took them 2 weeks to fix the lenses they had damaged in the first place and when they gave them back they hadn\u2019t fitted the right side lens properly anyway! Thank goodness Head Office were helpful, I sent them photos of the lenses and luckily had a photo of me wearing them the day before in which you can\u2019t see the scratches. Besides which, the scratches were so noticeable, the Ophthalmologist would\u2019ve noticed then during my eye exam if I had brought them in like that. Robert didn\u2019t want to acknowledge the store had damaged my \u00a3550 glasses that were in pristine condition but the person I spoke to on the phone didn\u2019t seem surprised at all."
