"I highly recommend them go and see them..."
So as a musician, it’s important that when I’m playing my instruments and my glasses don’t slip. I have one challenge that I love wearing rimless glasses. I like the weight I like the versatility but no optician in England seems to be confident enough to adjust my Glasses for me Gary and Sarah very very accommodating. They were confident to adjust my rimless glasses. I highly recommend them go and see them if you got rimless glasses cause they’re quite good at.
"I’ll definitely be back next time I need anything glasses-related."
Even though I hadn’t bought them there, I was welcomed with a big smile, helped immediately, and wasn’t charged a penny. Fantastic service!
"Would highly recommend for anyone needing a high quality and reliable eyewear service."
Andrea and Nicky were amazing, advising me on the options to fix the imbalance and performing an immaculate service in a couple of minutes.
"Great service from Garry and the gang at Askew."
I got a fabulous new pair of glasses and Garry couldn't have been more kind, helpful and professional. Very knowledgeable and welcoming to customers - everyone leaves with a smile!
"I really appreciate the wonderful, professional service."
I am visiting from Canada and dropped into Askew Opticians today as my glasses were sitting sideways on my face and badly needed an adjustment. Edi was professional and adjusted my glasses for free.
