A really knowledgeable and professional service. Left with some great glasses and without feeling completely old or frumpy in them.
If you're nervous about getting glasses, not sure what suits or need advice, then this is the place for you.
Made the whole wearing glasses thing a lot less traumatic!
I was sent home by my regular high street optician for having unstable eyes ! After they were unable to provide me glasses I could see through after 3 attempts ! I dropped into Eyes on St Albans in desperation ! Jez and Kavita were amazing , very knowledgeable and patient ! I even picked a pair of frames I love in less than 10 minutes! Also I can see through them ! Totally recommend this place ! Have been a glasses wearer and hater for 40 years and for the first time I’m looking forward to wearing my glasses ! Thank you so much .

We can’t tell how delighted we are to have been able to both sort out all your issues AND ‘Converting’ you to want to wear your new spex, thank you so very much for the ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ and for sharing your experiences with us, thank you again 🙏🏼
Jez and his team have changed my life completely!! I was so fed up of losing glasses and breaking them when having to take them on and off all the time when working, I only need them for reading and when on my phone and computer, I told Jez this and he recommended Occupational Lenses, I had never heard of these……WOW! I can now leave my glasses on permanently when I’m working in my printing unit, also the choice of frames available is unreal, stylish, sturdy and the case they cone with is amazing too. Can’t recommend Eyes on St. Albans enough!!

Thank you very much for your ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ and for sharing your story.. Always over the moon to hear experiences our customers have with us, thank you again and look forward to seeing you again 🙏🏼
Amazingly good!
Wow! Just wow! I emailed Jez at Eyes on St Albans as I'd broken my glasses and he was so helpful and personable on email, so a few days later I popped in to his incredible shop. Such a brilliant, colourful, arty, chilled out space. It's worth a visit just for that! And Jez himself was absolutely lovely. Really helpful, chatty, professional and kind. We had a lovely chat about music and guitars (ask him about the collection in the shop!) and he figured out a clever fix for my totally busted glasses super quick and at a really reasonable price. It's the kinda place you just wanna hang out in, such a great vibe. If you need absolutely anything eyes-wise, definitely go and see Jez - he's a spectacle superstar!!!

Jez had an absolute blast meeting and chatting with you, thank you so very much for your ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ review, we are delighted to have been able to sort you out on the spot. We look forward to seeing you again, and please send people our way, even if it is for a jam on our guitar collection, thank you again 🙏🏼
Absolutely amazing! Jez was able to save my glasses when many of the highstreet opticians said it was impossible. Service only took a few days and was just as promised. Will be recommending to everyone I know 😆
Buying new glasses is a big decision for me. Jez was really helpful in finding something to suit me/my style. Fantastic to have a local business with such a wide selection of high quality products not found with the big name opticians.
Thanks Jez, will be back for help with sunglasses!

We recognise that buying spex is a major decision for most, which is the very reason we put all our experience into the whole process and offer some uniqueness in the experience, we thank you for your ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ and very much look forward to assisting you in the very near future, thank you again 🙏🏼
Excellent. Had an eye test including tests I’ve never had before and when it came to choosing a new pair of glasses …Jez found the perfect pair in seconds, he knew exactly what would suit me. As a nervous glasses buyer who usually takes hours and several visits to find “the right” ones, I was amazed and for the first time actually enjoyed the whole experience! Love my new glasses, thank you!

We are absolutely delighted that you actually ‘Enjoyed’ your experience with us…. We thrive on comments like this and thank you so very much for your ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ and review…🙏🏼
Just picked up my sunglasses from Jez today. Absolutely gorgeous grey glass, even better than my Oakleys and I’ve been buying Oakleys for most of my life, both vision glasses and prescription sunglasses.
For individual glasses that you won’t find at high st opticians Jez is the man.

Thank you Sandrine for your ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ and comments, yes, Jez can be a little quirky at times 🤣 thank you 🙏🏼
Jez is the man for individual style glasses. Great service and high quality frames and lenses. I struggled with varifocal glasses from the high st options. But Jez’s quality lenses are another level.

🙏🏼Thank you Sid🙏🏼 - Delighted we have altered your perception of how varifocals can work, thanks again and look forward to seeing you for a pair of sunnies soon, thanks again for your comments and ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
I'm very pleased with the service I received, from an eyes test to a new lenses for my frames and new computer glasses.
Master Jez, a gentleman of the most singular dedication and discernment, attended to my needs with a sympathetic ear and a helpful hand. In an age where such care is often found wanting, his conduct was a beacon of professional virtue. My vision is restored, my spirits are lifted, and I am, quite simply, prodigiously pleased.
