Store Reviews

Customer reviews

"I have always used another 'high street chain' - by habit. However I have large issues with their audiology dept and decided to change my optical 'habit'.
Eye test at Bude last friday. I was made to feel like a valued customer and realised it was unlike the 'sausage factory' feel from your competitors.
Will use and recommend Vision Express.
Thanks and just got a text to say ready."

"I am writing to express my satisfaction after visiting your Bude store a few weeks ago. I was on holiday in the resort and I realised that I had not packed my spare lenses. This was an inconvenience not to mention being blind as a bat in the swimming pool!! When I asked the staff at Bude, Anne and Julia if they could help, they were very efficient and rang up my supplier Costco and went out of their way to find some replacement lenses.They were very friendly and really helped me out. I wanted you to know how helpful and kind they were and hence I could enjoy my holiday to the full!!"
