I went to Specsavers Edwardstown to get my reading glasses for the year! I usually go elsewhere but…read moredecided to try Specsavers for a change! I discussed with the optometrist getting one pair of tinted lenses especially for the computer to reduce migraines! I purchased 3 pairs of glasses with frames and got new lenses fitted to my favorite older frames! When I got them home I found them ok to read with but when I tried them on the computer, I couldn't see a thing! I was forced to use my older glasses for both normal reading and the computer! When I rang Specsavers I was promptly told that they were reading glasses and NOT meant to be used while using the computer! I was shocked because I have never heard this before plus I discussed computer use with the optometrist and got one pair that reduced glare! I made an appointment to get the problem fixed but when I saw the optometrist was told the same thing! When I mentioned our conversation about the computer he said " how many people do you think I see, I can't remember the conversation"!! Then he told me the glasses were fine and to go home!! So either I throw my computer away or use the older glasses! I'm upset because I got my favorite frames fitted with the useless lenses as well! So now I have 3 pairs of glasses that are paper weights and out over $500 !! I am disgusted that I have wasted both my time and money on glasses I can't use!

I didn't go to the optometrist here - only went in to buy frames - so I can't comment on the…read morequality of the eye checks, but I did go in to purchase frames and had a FANTASTIC experience. All the staff were polite and helpful, I got better customer service than any other optometrist I've been to. They had a huge range of frames from tons of different designers, and their two for one offers are very good (sunnies are included in that offer). I would highly recommend this shop!

Mark Parsons and Kevin Rooney are your friendly Opticians at North Terrace Optometrists, and they…read morewill happily check your eyesight as well as discuss the sort of options you have with all the new technologies available to those requiring glasses or contact lenses. They have quite a good range of frames for new glasses, and a reasonably fast turnaround for delivery. A pair of glasses is a very personal thing, and these days they do not come particularly cheap but these guys are pretty affable and will allow you to make a series of payments so you are not stuck with a big lump sum all at once to pay for new glasses. Let's face it, you are lucky to get away with a new pair of glasses for under $1000.00 if you are buying new frames along with the lenses, so if you are on a low income or even a moderate income it is nice to know you can pay it over a few weeks. This is why I have been and returned to these guys; along with the fact that they have been very supportive of people on a low income whom I have brought in for an eye checkup. If you have a Medicare Card it is a minimal cost. Once you have found a decent optician it is good to stay with them because there is a lot to be said about continuity in these situations. Friends of mine who have required glasses for shortsightedness have been able to get a new pair of glasses with frames for under $200.00 so if you are on the pension or unemployment benefits, don't let their swank address in North Terrace put you off, they're worth a visit, and it is definitely worth discussing your situation and needs before you sit down for the actual eye test, just to let them know what's what. It is best to make an appointment, but I have no doubt you'll get a look in if you just wander in off the street like I did the very first time, you may have to wait for twenty minutes, but that's not too long under those sorts of circumstances; otherwise obviously, book an appointment.

I've been coming to Optometry on Osmond ever since I needed glasses and I've always had great…read moreservice. Both the Optometrists are friendly and professional and have always been efficient at finding the right lenses for my eyes as they have changed over time. They are definitely two of the best Optometrists in Adelaide. They also stock a large range of high quality frames, although in my opinion they are best suited for more mature and sophisticated individuals. I often struggle to find frames here that suit me and my budget, however they are happy to accept frames sourced from elsewhere to fit with lenses. I can definitely recommend Optometry on Osmond, especially to those who have complicated issues such as astigmatism.

If you're a Health Partners member this is a great optometrist to visit. I had an eye exam done…read morehere recently, it was very comprehensive and I was in and out in 20 minutes. The exam is bulk billed to medicare, and if you do need any eye support you get huge discounts, depending on your level of cover. Luckily I was given the all ok for the next two years so I can't give you details on the savings, but you can check the website for more info. Also all the staff were very professional and friendly. In a nutshell - I can see clearly now!

You can get a nice pair of specs with no gap through a health fund, which is helpful. You can choose from a reasonable range, although their is not anything too trendy. Overall very good and I am pleased.

Haven't used them yet myself, although I'm due for a check up (and probably glasses, hours spent in…read morefront of a PC and all that) but have taken both my kids here, and my wife has used them a couple of times too. Staff are friendly, and seem efficient, although we have pre-empted the call to pick up the kids glasses a couple of times - just a matter of timing, we were at the centre and dropped in to check if the specs were ready, and they were. The times the kids have been there, the ladies who've looked after them have really put them at ease with the tests, and truly take the time to be sure their glasses sit comfortably like they should. Special cases have been found for them with favourite cartoon characters, etc - they really do a good job of looking after the little ones.

In fact, it wouldn't be a great leap for me to say that everyone I know wears glasses. And I keep hearing this name pop up. It seems to be the place to go if your after a cheap pair of glasses, and don't know anyone who is going to Thailand. I've been in here with my husband a few times, and service is pretty good. We had great fun him trying on ridiculous styles, and the staff were happy just to leave us alone.

Name brands in stock and to mention a few are Ted Baker, Oroton, Jag, etc. It doesn't take long to get an appointment and eye examinations are bulk billed. There are three optometrists on board which takes the load off and keeps the customers happy. Turn around time for lenses is anywhere from 4 - 7 days depending on what needs to be done and if they're already in stock or require special orders.

I was able to find a couple of frames that I thought would suit me pretty well. Now, if you know me, you'll know it takes a lot of effort to look as spectacularly daggy as I do, so I let my wonderful wife make important decisions like glasses these days. But she was pretty happy with some of the frames I tried. I haven't bought yet, so I don't know how quickly they are at having the glasses ready, but I was happy when I was browsing.
