What Our Clients Say

I have to say how amazing the lovely ladies at Conways have been. Morgan and Bobby helped massively with the choose of frames, which is not easy with my prescription. Morgan did a fantastic job of making my lenses fit, so they looked super slim. A truly amazing job.

- Stirling Hinkley

I'm always so happy with the personal service at Conways: It's great going somewhere where the staff know and remember me. I'm consistently impressed by the time, attention and expertise I get from the staff, even if I just pop in for something without an appointment. The refurbished premises look very nice, and being offered a cup of tea while I wait is much appreciated.

- Sam Partington

Lovely people, very knowledgeable, and always willing to help! I needed some vintage frames at very late notice (I was in a play that was opening the same night). They were so accommodating. Not only did they get out a range of frames for me to choose from, they also helped me find the ones that suited the style and period of the play best. They even matched the lenses to my prescription so I didn't have to worry about wearing contacts onstage, and they let me rent the glasses at an extremely generous rate. I cannot thank you enough for all your help! 10/10

- Thomas Vallely

Needed a replacement side arm for an old pair of glasses and went in to see if the frames were still made and if they could just get the side arm. They said the could order a new arm but first checked to see if they had one on their lab. They found one that fitted and put that on and charged less than half the cost of a new arm. All done in about twenty minutes so didn't have to wait for delivery of a new part. Really nice staff, friendly and professional. Shop is also fabulous with a great range of frames.

- Stuart Dryden

I have always enjoyed my visits to Conways the staff have always been particularly helpful, often able to find me just what I needed or order it in if it wasn't readily available. Special mention must be made of Morgan who on my second visit knew exactly the item I needed to aid in my glasses cleaning issue and dashed off to find it returning moments later with the gadget I needed. Very friendly welcoming and efficient. Just what you want from an opticians really.

- Stephen Holmes

- malcolm pearce

Conways always provide top quality examinations, advice and information. The premises now present a modern setting and a fantastic selection of exciting frames for all types of glasses. This is complemented by the extremely knowledgeable and friendly Morgan. I am now equipped with some rather more exotic specs than in the past, and expect to continue visiting Conways for a while. The newly introduced photographic eye examination has reduced my concern about issues which many of us older people worry about, in particular macular degeneration. Only down side is the ending of participation in NHS. Hope many others choose to come to you and benefit from such a pleasant experience!
