How An Eye Test Saved My Life!

David is a longtime patient of mine, and a very nice chap. Due to the pandemic, it had been a while since Dave’s last check-up, but he wasn’t worried and just felt things weren’t as sharp as they used to be, especially after celebrating couple more birthdays! During the examination, I discovered some early signs […]

Exposed….The Truth About Designer Glasses

In the early '90s, fashion designers began putting their names on eyewear frames, sparking the rise of “designer glasses.” But despite the premium price, these glasses are not as exclusive as they seem. It’s BIG Business! Two major eyewear manufacturers hold licenses for most designer brands and mass-produce frames in the same factories. They simply […]

  We have been with Perspective for many years.  It was 5 stars service on that first day and, has been the same since.  I would give even more 😊. Since then they have been looking after our family too. Years ago, we did go to one of the many chains who have limited time.  I was always tripping and falling before Perspective.  In honesty, I had got to the stage where I thought the vision could not be improved.  In some ways, I was lead to believe this. Thank giodbess for Perspective 😀!!! Dan and all the team are excellent and always go out of their way to help.  Dan has such a nice way of building a rapport. It puts you at ease. Even more important  when you need a confidence boost. I will always appreciate the way Sarah was with Dad when he was alive.  It was getting difficult as dementia was progressing.  Kindness given goes a long way. Over the years Karen has become our frame style guru 😃.  I just leave it to her to choose a frame for me.  I am never disappointed.  They are always different and allowed me to think outside the box. Thank you everyone, from the heart.   Always grateful

  Been to many high street opticians and struggled to find a quality frame style that suites. Thankfully Dan and his team at Perspective Opticians were able to show me an array of designer frames in all shapes and styles from brands not seen elsewhere. They helped me choose the right frame (Tom Ford) for me and recommended quality varifocal lenses for sunglasses which have given me the best vision I’ve ever had out of varifocals. The attention to detail from frame selection, measurements (some serious tech with the Seiko machine) etc went above and beyond experiences elsewhere. The decor and furnishings give it a boutique feel, much more welcoming than the more clinical high street offerings. Overall, highly recommend a visit here, I’ll be going back.

  Outstanding opticians - I am so glad I came across them when moving to Solihull. They are extremely knowledgeable on specialist subjects and are kind and patient with answering my very specific questions and also doing eye tests for my young children. All staff I have met here are great, in particular Sarah and Sital, who go above and beyond what is expected. I would give them more than 5 stars if I could!

  My husband and I visited Perspective Opticians recently, having been recommended by a close friend. The service we received was excellent, from the expert knowledge of Dan, our optometrist, to the front of house team who guided us through frames that would suit us. It was very personal, friendly and we left feeling like we'd really been taken care of. We will definitely be returning. Thank you, Dan and the team!
