    The thing is with specsavers though, they give you 100 days to change your mind when buying a pair of glasses. suppose that is added to the high cost

    Is the 100 day warranty a change your mind or does there have to be something wrong with them. Can you just say don't like them and get a different pair, or does there need to be a problem with the fit etc?

    find something wrong with them-not suiting you,wrong fit,frame too heavy,causing headache etc personally I wouldn't say just a change of mind

    Will be returning to them soon for a new prescription and looking for a credit.Got 2 "bottle" lenses on my fairly low rated vision i.e. I'm not visually impaired to any great degree.Another optician laughed when he took them out - asked me in what century I bought them.The Specsavers lenses got scratched because so bulbous.He showed me a chart illustrating the various lens thicknesses available.I could pick the thickness I wanted.Specsavers never offered a choice.I wil be repeating that optician's comments to Specsavers.

    It's very unusual they didn't offer you a choice... usually they push that because thinner lenses are more expensive.

    They have been spamming my phone and emails about getting an eye test. I literally got one two years ago. Think I'll pass.

    2 years is the usual interval at which opticians send reminders about eyesight tests.



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 2,754 ✭✭✭beachhead


    Yes,2 years is the recommended interval between eye tests.
