The anti glare coating makes them perfect for driving even when the sun is low in the sky (which it often is in Finland!). Thanks to all at the Respectacle Company! read less

The retinal imaging machine means that Mr Hanby could check every detail of the inner workings of my eyes and provide me with helpful advice for the future. Alison also sorted out the addition of sun shades to fit over my existing glasses to reduce UV light issues. read less

So, I have approximately 20 pairs of spectacles collected over the last few years from a well known high street opticians , you might have been there ! 😀
The prescription kept changing ever so slightly ... I couldn’t get on with the varifocals / bi focals and was carrying 3 pairs but to be honest, wasn’t wearing them !!
At work it caused issues as I work at a bank of 4 screens but also need to see into the distance / computer screen and close up.

I was losing faith, until , I visited ReSpectacle ....
The eye test was very thorough, the service from Alison , second to none .... in fact , to be fair it was an all round enjoyable experience .

I now have 2 pairs of ‘specs’ , that I wear all the time .... (my partner is gobsmacked !😀)

I am receiving compliments galore....

I am one incredibly happy customer, and would recommend ReSpectacle to anyone....

I cannot fault them .... and to be honest, I’m a bit like strictly judge Craig .... I don’t usually give 10/10 .... read less

I was recommend Respectacle by my Family who go there often so I gave them a try. I was very impressed by the eye-catching design and layout of the store accompanied by the warm welcome by all members of staff; I felt like a person not just a number. From start to finish I was provided with a professional and knowledgeable service which made me confident I was getting the right prescription for me. I'm so happy with my new Glasses and will definitely be returning in the future as my go to choice for Opticians. Thanks all! read less

The shop is so very cool, with a lovely range of contemporary furniture, bright colours & glasses displays - not the usual row upon row of back lit glasses racks!
The service is fantastic! The welcome is warm and the assistance is helpful and knowledgeable.
Then there is the range! The range of glasses is amazing! If you like contemporary design & to have your glasses stand out from the crowd, this is the ONLY place to go.
This is truly a unique shop for glasses & a great experience too! Go on, treat your face! read less

I met Alison at a networking event and immediately booked in. A far superior service to any of those ‘generic’ high street opticians (in my opinion!), very thorough, helpful, patient (with my dithering over which frames to choose - so many lovely and unique ones!), a great service that I can (and already have) highly recommend. Thank you. read less

I usually get mine from one of the big well known high street opticians, but lately I find their selection rather uninspiring. Fortunately that wasn’t the case with Respectacle. In fact I had trouble choosing just one pair because I liked so many of their frames. In the end I went with a WOOW frame and now I’m excited about wearing glasses again. Great customer service too. Thanks Alison and team! read less
