I’m honestly over the moon with my new glasses! The whole experience from start to finish was amazing. This is why it is SO important to support your local independent opticians if you can possibly afford to - they are worth every penny! * A detailed and meticulous eye examination from Claudine - first class! She’s been working with our family, including both our children for almost 20 years - second to none! I trust her 100%. * Emily picked up a pair of frames (not the most expensive AND in the January sale) - I fell in love with them immediately! She knows her stuff (she’s advised me on every pair) * An experience when I went down to get my glasses that I’ll never forget! Robert made me feel so special and so good that day - the extra effort means the world Huge gratitude to the whole team - long may you continue to thrive in our High Street!

If you want a personable and professional service, then I would highly recommend going to see Robert, Emily and Claudine. The practice has a unique choice in eyewear brands, and from walking through the door for the first time I felt welcomed and in good hands. Robert and Emily had selected frames before my arrival based on my email brief — they then narrowed down to a couple of options by process of elimination (correct fitting and style). Claudine’s vision test was comfortable and relaxing, and was able to book me in on extremely short notice. Robert professionally fitted the chosen pair to ensure they were comfortable. I walked away with two special pairs of glasses, and fantastic memories and experiences of going to Robert’s practice — I look forward to visiting for many years to come.

I had a wonderful experience with Robert. He took the time to really listen, made me feel comfortable, and offered thoughtful advice about frames that suited both my style and personality. The atmosphere in the shop was relaxed and welcoming ,Great coffee as well. A genuine one-to-one experience. Highly recommended.

The service at this wonderful Optician is excellent. I have recently had my eyes tested and purchased new Rodenstock lenses. Driving home last night I noticed a marked improvement. Many thanks to Robert Callendar and his amazing team for providing such a professional experience. Mae

In ten years of visiting opticians, I have made lots of expensive mistakes and never felt happy with any of my eye-wear choices. Going for the eye-test itself was never a problem, but how I dreaded the feelings of overwhelm and confusion when faced with a mind-boggling array of frames, and that sense of being utterly abandoned to make my own choice about what suited me. How I wished there was an optician that would not just support me to get the right lenses, but who would also take the time and trouble to find frames that would suit my face AND my personality. I’m thrilled to say that I’ve found such a place - Robert Callander Eyewear - and that’s where I’ll be going from now on! For the first time ever, I absolutely LOVE the glasses I’ve bought because they make me feel like ME! I enjoy wearing them, they make me smile, I feel good about myself when I’ve got them on, and I've had nothing but compliments since I got them. I know that all of this is down to the fact that Robert and his team go the extra mile for you. In fact, they probably go at least an extra five miles, because this is absolutely 5-star service all the way. If you’re looking for a cheap ’n’ cheerful, cookie-cutter experience, you’re unlikely to find it here. But if you want to feel heard and understood by a team that actually cares about getting it right for YOU, Robert Callander Eyewear is the only place to go.
