Albert's not had an eye test for over 2 and a half years what with the pandemic and everything and now he's no longer able to get out to an optician we decided to try a home visit by Specsavers,
3 People turn up (1 was a trainee) with suitcases of equipment - very high tech - more frames than they probably have in the shop! and did a very very thorough examination,
He has cataracts but they don't need surgery at the moment but if he had needed it they "Short Cut" to 6 weeks wait - presume NHS is more,
He will for the first time try Varifocals as his arms get weaker he won't forever be changing the different pairs, but if he doesn't like them after 3 weeks they will change them no problem and do him a long and short vision set,
Pay by card in the house - simple
They are ordered, will be delivered in about 2 to 3 weeks and then someone from Specsavers comes back to fit them etc
He's had to wait a bit and they did say there's still a backlog
I cannot fault this service, impressive
and yes we are glad we went to specsavers!
