I’ve been with May, and this Opticians for many years. They provide a very professional service with a great selection of frames, and lenses. The equipment used at this practice is very sophisticated, and gives you a full understanding of your eye health. Sadly I’m moving to England, and will find it difficult to join a similar practice, with the same understanding and helpfulness.

I bought a lovely pair of sunglasses, the customer care was second to none. I wanted the lenses to be replaced a few months later with snazzy polarised lenses and the entire process was smooth with expert advice provided along the way. Eye2eye is a great choice for your optical needs!!! Highly recommended

I recently got my glasses from Eye2eye and I couldn’t be happier with the experience. The staff was incredibly helpful and professional from start to finish. They took the time to guide me through the selection process, offered honest advice, and made sure I was completely satisfied with my choice. The atmosphere was welcoming, and everything was handled efficiently and with care. I highly recommend them for anyone looking for quality eyewear and top-notch customer service!

A great welcome – informative team work. Great advice and extensive eye examinations.
I am learning how to adapt to my brand new varifocals. Moving my head rather than my eyes. It is quite a a thing to get used to😂. I am getting there. Thanks all.

I can not stress enough how good this place is. Amazing professional service, very knowledgeable and helping me understand the potential issues and what I may face and also what I don’t need to worry about with my particular issue. Great bedside manner aswell in helping me discuss my medical issues at the time. I would recommend my friends and family to go here even if it’s not in their area as it’s worth the trip. 👌🏾👌🏾👌🏾

My daughter went to this opticians based on a referral from crwys pharmacy as she had persistent eye symptoms and we are so glad she did. The optician was very thorough in her questioning and took her time to make her feel at ease (she usually gets very nervous at the prospect of any sort of medical exam). We would definitely come here in the future for our eye tests.

Great recommendation to go to Eye to Eye, and great one to one consultations!

I have been having problems with contact lenses for years, and from one consultation and from Eye to Eye found that i had a common problem with my eyes that was previously not noticed.
Now I can see again and go out in the sunshine with sunglasses !!!

Great job from Eye to Eye no going back now !!!
