Reviews of Vision Express Opticians - London - Canary Wharf
L. B.
Had a really great experience at Canary Wharf vision express. The optician Darshni was lovely and got me tested and contact lens fitted in no time. The contact lenses recommended have been excellent. Shah was amazing at helping me choose some frames and all the paperwork was completed easily. My lenses arrived in 2 days and my glasses were ready in 4 days! All amazing. Really pleased and such a friendly service - certainly my optician of choice from now on.
m. n.
Visited the branch in December and very happy with the service especially the optometrist who was in charge of my eye test, it had been a long time since my last one and I felt very welcome and at ease throughout the entire process. I also want to thank Nicola as well for handling my glasses purchase with care!
S. K.
My first time at this multiple and I was blown away by Tasnim Shalim the optometrist. Her professionalism, extensive knowledge and great bedside manner kept me reassured throughout the eye test.
My mother has macula degeneration and I was full of questions which she answered with ease. I waited less than a minute before she called me in and the test itself never felt rushed. What a great asset she is to this store and company. Vision Express you have gained a customer for life. Absolutely brilliant!
L. T.
My experience at Vision Express, Canary Wharf today was excellent. Nicola was so helpful and courteous, and went above and beyond to find a solution to an instant repair for my glasses. Thank you for a very positive experience.
J. C.
I have been coming to thus branch for my appointments and all staff are extremely helpful and friendly. Highly recommend having your eyes tested here. They have a great selection of frames too
A. I.
I feel that Vision Express at Canary Wharf has been so far the best experience especially for the past 15 years, my family members, extended family and Mother as well as my other family have had a wonderful experience as well as an outstanding outcome.
Even there is a turn around of many staff members in the past, the service had been excellent.
Keep up the Good work!
O. G.
I have been coming to this branch for nearly 10 (!) years now. Always received fantastic and high quality service and products. Big thanks to Shahjahan who has worked here nearly as long as I've been coming and is great!
J. L.
Thanks to the excellent and professional services at Vision Express! I got 2 new glasses and have solved my deteriorating eye sight while reading and driving. Waiting time is short, customer service is friendly and helpful!
G. P.
I purchased my first pair of verifocal glasses abosolutely love them
But. Here’s the but. The lenses have falling out of these frames ever since having them
I only got them the end of September 21 and it’s so annoying been back to this store once jut to mention another on holiday finally took them back
The assistant was great she helped me find a new frame so glad I was able to return and change within the 100 day period
Just waiting now for the new frame to come. What I would say is surely when you select a pair maybe they should say these may cause an issue with lenses as metal and the shape is not great
Was advised to go for a plastic frame which I found a nice one and hope these will be better
Waiting to see, so fingers crossed

My Vision Express visit was definitely a game of 2 halves. The eye exam was lovely. Everyone was very chatty, friendly and helpful. Things were explained, discussed and I came out of the exam feeling quite good about the visit.
However, then comes "The Sell". The pressure to not leave the store without buying some glasses was palpable. I wanted to do some research on varifocals and possibly return with my partner but the assistant seemed to be saying that I wouldn't be able to buy varifocals if I left the store and returned later. I had to really press to get her to admit that this was a possibility.
I think the pricing card for varifocals is REALLY misleading. So much so I am considering contacting the ASA as I think it might break their guidelines. The big headline is 33% off the price of varifocals and then some prices. What is not clear is that the prices listed already includes the discount. Not what I was expecting.
I was disappointed to find out that "re-glassing" my reading glasses would cost £69 BEFORE the cost of the lenses. Not really a great policy given the world's focus on recycling and sustainability. The online price that I found for this service was £52 INCLUDING the lenses. Definitely not great. Suffice to say I will not be using VE for this.
I did return the next day, with my partner, to buy some varifocals. The service from the sales staff on this occasion was much better. I still felt that the prices of frames were massively overblown and I'm not happy about the overall experience. I felt like I was charged way too much for my glasses and I will probably go elsewhere for my next eye exam.
D. V.
I was seen for an eye test in Canary Wharf. The service was extremely professional and the optometrist took her time to check me out and ensure that all angles were covered. I was impressed. After the test, she passed me on to a sales clerk who tried a soft-sell approach. I didn't need anything done at the lament, but I will consider them when I do.
D. M.
I was very impressed with the Optometrist who did my eye test. She gave me a really good examination. She had great customer care. I was also impressed with the lady who helped me pick out a pair of glasses. I would recommend going to the Canary Wharf branch,
a. t.
Great optometrist at the Canary Wharf branch!!!!
She carried out a great and accurate examination!!!
Not so great the sales assistant Nicole, she was clearly bothered by the fact she had to assist me, at the end I ordered a cheap frame just because I need new glasses but if end when I’ll come back I’ll make sure she won’t be the one assisting me!
The only thing that she knows how to do is loosing customers.
A. S.
I booked an eye examination at Vision Express as David Clulow's eye specialist fell sick last minute.
Tasnim Shalim Boptom at Vision Express carried out the eye examination. From the moment she first introduced herself to the end of the examination she was patient (despite all my questions), professional and above all, extremely knowledgeable.
Thank you Vision Express.
S. G.
We’ve been a few times for my children. One of my children’s myopia dropped -0.5 in five months but was told by one of the optometrists that there was nothing to worry about and I should just let her be. I have no experience with myopia myself so I followed the advice. My child ended up with moderate to high myopia at a young age. The most recent visit I was told by another optometrist that I should have intervened earlier because myopia progresses a lot faster with young children. Now my child is having myopia treatment but I deeply regretted that I had listened to the first optometrist’s advice and lost so much time.
If your child is young and short sighted please seek treatment as there’re a few effective methods. Myopia itself is irreversible and with small children their eyes can get worse so quickly. We have seen quite a few optometrists lately, both private and NHS. All of them told us with myopia progressing that fast you need to intervene as early as possible. Thank you very much Vision Express for letting us sit around and do nothing.
I gave three stars because I appreciate that the last optometrist was being professional and honest.
P. Y.
Friendly and knowledgeable staff. Good advice given on frames for my new pair of prescription glasses.
R. L.
Appointment was run very efficiently both for me and for my two children (aged 5 and 8) who were also getting their eyes checked. Everything was explained very clearly by the optometrist.
Customer service was excellent.
B. D.
Very helpful staff, you definitely get what you pay for. Very happy with my experience and both pairs are even better than what I expected, arrived on time and overall couldn’t be better! The gentleman who helped me a lot goes by ‘king shah’ and the doctor who gave me a very smooth eye examination was Tasnim. Will surely back here to get glasses for my girlfriend as well!
N. H.
Excellent customer service.
Andrew Ly the ophthalmologist was friendly yet professional and gave me the appropriate input for my requirements.
Shah too was very professional and not pushy to sell me any glasses.
I would definitely go back to them. In fact I have booked an appointment for my husband next week.
J. O.
Beuty Begum was very professional and assisted patiently with my selection of frame. Both Beuty and Safiya Yusuf were so pleasant and made me comfortable it appeard they knew what they were doing and made sure I was satisfied with the service I got. I will be recommending Vission Express to my family and friends.
M. B.
Andrew the optometrist who carried out my test was incredible. He is easily one of the most caring, passionate people you could hope to meet! His professionalism immediately put me at ease and he explained everything to me in thorough detail in a way that I could easily comprehend. His customer service was impeccable. That level of compassion is a serious asset to vision express. With all Covid precautions in place I felt at ease and the whole process was incredibly straight forward. I was truly surprised at how pleasant the whole experience was!
C. P.
Brilliant service and made me feel very welcome. Given current circumstances the store was spotless and following guidelines very strictly which was great to see and gave me confidence. The knowledge of the optician was outstanding and backed firmly by the warm customer service. Thank you so much.
D. S.
I took my daughter for an eye check on Thursdsy. She was a bit scared, but we were very pleased with the welcoming staff and customer service. Andy was amazing. It was a real pleasure to meet person with passion to work, enthusiasm and professionalism. My daughter received her new glasses this morning. Only two days after visit and she is very happy.
D. K.
I loved my experience with Vision Express in Canary Wharf.
The staff here were all really friendly and professional.
My glasses were meant to arrive in 2 weeks but one week later I already had them at home.
They have a big selection of glasses from different brands and styles and you can pick to either get them delivered at home or to just collect them directly from the shop.
K. B.
Everybody here was so friendly and helpful. I had an appointment to get contact lenses for the first time. From eye test to helping me learn to put them in, everything was really chilled and all of my questions were answered. Happy customer!
B. H.
Shahjahan was a great help to me in selecting the right lenses and also explaining the various measurements needed. Would strongly recommend.
B. C.
Excellent service from all the team at Canary Wharf. My thanks to Optometrist Andrew Ly and Shah Asghar in sales. Super efficient and knowledgable making the whole process really easy. 👍
S. M.
Had my first contact lens appointment today with Hannah today. She was genuinely one of the best opticians I have ever visited! She was incredibly patient and reassured me throughout the entire process. Brilliant customer service and professionalism and she helped talk through all of my concerns.
Overall, fantastic experience at this branch and a huge thank you to Hannah who made the entire process so easy and comfortable :) !!!
S. P.
I did have an emergency appointment on Tuesday as I woke up with a burning red eye. I called the branch and got an appointment right away. Dashnee was very thoughtful, understanding and took a long time to check the health of my eye. Her consultation was very friendly and professional and she asked me to come back the next day to make sure I get the right help. I ordered new sunglasses after her advice and will also get my contact lenses with this branch after my trauma is fully healed. I can just repeat my last rating with 5*! Best optician!
I have been to this branch the second time this year and was again impressed by the expertise, friendliness, professionalism & service of the staff. - A special THANK YOU to Andrew!
Andrew took my concerns about my condition serious (floaters) and examined me immediately and with a kindness you can't ask for at your optician. He even took the time to explain all steps of the examination in detail (I am not a native English speaker and he made sure I did understand everything in detail). I left the store without any fear left which I had when I entered.
In February I bought my glasses in this store and will make sure I will buy my next one there as well- best optician!!!
c. m.
I've being using Vision express since I first required glasses and will continue to do so.
Efficient service and punctual staff.
S. H.
Superb service! Very helpful and knowledgeable professionals in the store. We got our eyes tested, and purchased lenses and frames. Would certainly recommend them to prospective customers.
A. W.
I had a really good experience despite attending an appointment during lockdown. The staff are very friendly and polite. Answered all my questions and were very professional and seem to go the extra mile to make sure the customer is happy. I've refunded glasses before with no hassle and when my contact lens prescription changed, they replaced my unused boxes.
A. H.
I had a great experience at Vision Express in Canary Wharf. I received a comprehensive eye examination for contact lenses and purchased a contact lens subscription and a pair of glasses. I received a fantastic service from Nicola. She was super professional, friendly and knowledgeable when helping to select the right pair of glasses and contact lens subscription. I cannot recommend Nicola and Vision Express Canary Wharf enough!
c. k.
Brilliant, professional, caring, lovely people, can't fault them! Have hated going to the optician for over 60 years - first time I haven't felt stressed!
M. S.
Excellent customer service. Andrew Ly was fantastic, helped explain the process, very detailed and made me feel at ease the whole way free.
E. L.
I had a great experience with Optician Andrew. He is very professional and patient. I got a nice pair of glasses. He also expaliend to me what I could do to improve my dry eyes. I tried so many frame and staff in are very patient with me. Great customer service.
B. B.
Absolutely fabulous staff. All of them!!!!!!
I used to go to Specsavers, but won't bother now.
The young lady, who tested my eyes was so thorough and answered all of my questions. She explained everything into such a detail and also with such a care.
She genuinely came across as a caring person. Not just like someone, who wants to sell something.
Then I was looked after a young man, who shared his doughnuts with my daughters, bless him. It was his last day there, so I think that's why he had some. He did ask my permission though first.
He also gave them some paper and pens, to colour, as my appointment was very long one. I had an eye test and also contact lenses consultation, that's why.
Then I was helped by a young lady, as I started to chat to her, and she too was helping me to find glasses, I may like.
I ended up with prescription ones and also prescription sunglasses.
They found a really good deal for me, which was very nice of them.
I don't know how are other Vision Express branches, but I surely won't go anywhere else from now on.
Thank you so much, for all your help and care and also being so nice to my children.
Just to say, the branch is in Canada Place. Near Hobbs and the food shop Waitrose at the back.
r. b.
Bought contact lenses.
I have been to another Vision Express store last year, but the lady there couldn't explain properly on how one should go about wearing & removing the lenses. I found it difficult & gave up.
Visited this store to give another try.
Mez did fabulous job in explaining every little step. I was able to understand the process better & now I can easily go with the lenses.
Thanks Mez.
E.
Received an extremely thorough eye examination from Hannah who was extremely professional and kind. Could not recommend this opticians more, all the staff were so friendly and really put me at ease with my eye concerns. Great selection of glasses as well, looking forward to picking them up. Thank you to the whole team!
J.
I was with Vision Express Canary Wharf in 2010 but somehow lost touch and went on to various Opticians. I finally visited again and regret leaving them in the first place. I was looked after by Tasnim (Optometrist) who was professional, efficient, and thorough with my contact lens check up and eye exam. The rest of the staff were friendly and caring. All in all, it was a very positive experience and I highly recommend giving them a visit.
V.
Excellent service. Appointment booked on line and confirmed over the phone. The shop only had patients with appointments. Any specs tried, must be left out to be cleaned before returned to the display. Everone wears masks and all staff are polite, attentive and have time to answer questions and concerns. The optician was attentive, gave full explanations.
Old specs can be recycled. But it is cheaper to buy new cheap frames and new lenses, than be eco friendly and just get the new lenses, and that is why service is 4 star and not 5 star.
A. M.
For the first time in my life I had eye control and all I can say is that the treatment of patients is amazing. To be honest I was a bit nervous knowing that my vision became worse, but the staff was very nice while doing all the procedures. This helped me to relax. Everyone in there is very positive and friendly, especially one staff member with whom I had a chance to talk more, Saadiqah Chowdhury. Thank you guys for everything and keep it up this way!!!
B. R.
Thank you Sophie thank you Andy great service what more can you ask for. See you when I pick my order up !!!
Just went to pick my glasses up later than I was told and guess what completely the wrong frames! If no joy this week I will cancel my order. Poor service don’t know how you can call yourself express. Will update.
A. p.
Lovely staff and clean and hygienic centre at Canary Wharf. Great test and explanations. Would recommend.
A.
I visited Vision express today at canary wharf. The staff were all very nice, friendly and professional much better than my previous optician. I would highly recommend vision express. Service was quick, efficient and they explained things really well.
K. K.
A lovely bunch of people. Very welcoming, explained every detail of what was happening, great general chat and really helpful on picking out glasses. Possibly the best opticians I have been to! ☺️
F. R.
Came with my brother and had the most pleasant experience with Tasnim the optometrist!
She was able to explain everything so well, had lovely communication and an expert in her field. Had initially come for the brother‘s eye test but after seeing how smoothly it all went, can’t wait to book my own eye test with her.
Love the range of glasses at this store, and the customer service was even better.
Would highly recommend.
S. P.
I had an eye test and assessment for contact lenses at Vision Express. Tasnim the optometrist and the rest of the staff were really helpful, courteous and reassuring throughout the process.
M. B.
The staff at Vision Express Canary Wharf are amazing. A truly asset to Vision Express. As soon as I walked in , I was welcomed by a lovely super friendly advisor. The optician herself was so professional & helpful. But Advisor Jayce Manalili who helped me towards the end was the best. Extremely helpful. Thank you Vision Express Canary Wharf. Keep up the good work.
M. R.
Good covid precautions, everything was cleaned right in front of me during my visit. Optician Tasmin was very professional and reassured me about my eye condition and assistant David helped me choose frames and had good knowledge about lenses. Nice staff, will be back with my wife and kids
D. W.
I had to book an emergency appointment today. The team led by Andrew were absolutely brilliant. They managed to squeeze me in at very short notice. Hanna did a large number of tests and Andrew was there every step of the way reviewing the results and providing reassurance. Really couldn't have been looked after better and they were so friendly, really put me at ease in these difficult times.
M. P.
The service I have at vision express in Canary Wharf was great but the reason I'm giving 3 stars is because I was charged £60 administration fee to use my own frame, which I bought from them in the past.
C. F.
I had an emergency eye check up with Dr. Andrew who was absolutely amazing. Not only that he didn’t charge me for the consultation and put my mind to ease but his demeanour, attention to detail and customer service were flawless. I will definitely be back and looking for him for the next treatment. Just wish all opticians were like him. Thanks ever so much!
J. H.
A thorough and informative eye test. Quick, efficient and friendly service. Excellent and honest advice given to me as well. Made choosing and buying new glasses really easy.
M. K.
The actual eye testing was excellent and very thorough.
I was disappointed however with the poor choice of affordable priced glasses which meant I had to go elsewhere to buy my glasses as I had a limited budget.
C. L.
The people in the shop were very nice. However really disappointed, as I got there with a prescription I had done 2 weeks ago and they told me if I wanted they couldn't double check the prescription which I did as I wanted to be sure but they didn't say at any point that I was actually having an other eye test that I had to pay for.
J. G.
Awesome team. Brilliant people. Made to feel welcome.
Eye test - Processes explained, and lots discussion. Kept aware at all times and expectations managed very well. Friendly! Helpful!
Frame selection - Patient and diligent, but still VERY friendly and helpful.
Great team and great facilities. Thank you!
C.
Excellent customer service! Shah was particularly helpful during my visit and helped me pick the perfect pair of glasses. I highly recommend this branch. Thank you to the team!
B. L.
What can I say...Incredible, Amazing, or ... WE LOVE DR ANDREW!
We had a disaster this morning in which my girlfriend had run out of lenses and was virtually blind. We called all of the opticians around Canary and no answered our calls... except from the angel Dr. Andrew who took time out of his busy day to help randomers who had never even visited the branch. OUTSTANDING service and Andrew is all he is cracked up to be, if you need any kind of help come here!!
颜.
Great service! Fix my glasses free. My glasses lost the plastic nose holder on the way to Waitrose. I did not book any appointment. So I just pop in for help. They fixed it quick and free. Brilliant!
S. S.
My first ever appoinment at vision express today! after leaving my independent opticians after 27 years Andrew examined me he was amazing told me of my condition and made me see things diffrently what a great man gentle and down to earth i was blown away by him and Dariuzs helped me picked my glasses so easy going and great to talk to they both understood me straight away i came home beaming after speaking to them both honestlt the best service and experiance! definately my new life time go to for my glasses from now on!
C. C.
Tamsin is very thorough and helpful. Highly recommend!
G. S.
Great service! Staff explained to me everything about my eyesight and replied to all my questions.
M. E.
I would like to give a huge heartfelt recommendation to the Canarywharf team. Like why do you want to have your eyes tested any where else?? Special thanks to the reception and patient care. Latest technology and going the extra mile.
Andrew ⭐️

Shah was a very helpful member of staff, very friendly and made me feel very welcome and was very patient with me, when helping me find the exact glasses that I liked. I would highly recommend this branch if Vision express.
A. E.
I have used Vision Express twice in the last 3 years and overall I am very happy. Making appointments on the day is easy, very efficient and good customer service. I only had an eye test 18 months ago and I wasn't pressured to change glasses. I had another test last week again brilliant optician and I only wanted to change just the lenses. The sales person was also very accommodating to my needs didn't push or oversold and I got a free case too! I have recall using this shop back in 2008 and again cannot recall any of the feedback on here...people seem very petty on here.
O. I.
Fantastic service throughout.
Good selection of designer glasses, and a very helpful team (thank you Enrica, Adel and Zainab).
R. Z.
Excellent and polite service from all the staff specially the person who did all my tests. Many thanks to all of them.
M. A.
Went there today, was consulted by a lovely lady and by Jayce. They went above and beyond, were absolutely fantastic and the location was following all health guidelines.
Prices were also great! I doubt you can find anywhere with these prices and this customer support.
All in all I'll recommend Vision Express and will go there now every year : )
M.
First, I would like to thank the Optometrist Andrew Ly, for the eye test and his outstanding knowledge and communication skills. He made it a very pleasant experience.
Also the Associate Jayce Manalili was of great help in choosing the frames and assisting throughout the visit.
S. N.
Really happy with my experience at Vision Express Canary Wharf. Booked an appointment for the next week over the phone and received text reminder. Appointment was on time, optician was very professional and kind and even gave me some spare lenses to tide me over until my order arrived. Not a single bad word to say.
A. T.
Professional, attentive service. Great product range.
My partner and I made 5-6 visits to this store over the course of a month, separately and together, for eye tests, selecting frames, collection and adjustments. We were served to the highest standards on each and every visit.
Our special requirements were taken into account - private pilots - and we received great service and advice at each step of the process. We were both very impressed by the service and range of products available and would happily recommend this store to anyone for their eyewear needs.
I was mainly served by Jacye and my partner by Ali. Although relatively young, they were both very knowledgeable about all products. It was very nice to see the senior staff stepping in to help with more complex technical aspects when required, but not taking over the sale. Jacye helped me to find the best frames to make the best of the 2 for 1 offer the store had on at the time. Ali helped my partner find the best colour sunglasses for flying. Ali was also able to help adjust my existing and new frames to fit better.
A big thank you to everyone in store who helped sort us out with our new glasses and sunglasses!
L. M.
A great experience. Staff were really friendly and very informative. A very quick and seamless time and reasonably priced glasses. Got all I wanted out of my visit.
A. S.
Apart from being near my place of work, l just love the passion that l observed from the all the workers in every categories there.
From the Receptionists to the Consultants, they are impeccable and highly professional.
I have been with them since 2002 and I have never regretted trading with them. They are very expensive but it worth it!!!
S. M.
Grat service felt really looked after. All staff was very friendly and professional. My visit was fast and I receicved assistance in choosing glasses. Will definetley recommend this store.
T. C.
Great service. Staff very friendly, competent and patient. Nice glasses and prices for each necessity. Highly recommended.
H. B.
Just popped into Vision Express to sort out my sunglasses and was immediately dealt with in super fast, helpful way by Manager Dariusz and Shah great team effort. They are a credit to Vision Express.
C. S.
I haven't seen a customer service like this for quite a while and I was very impressed. Great attention to detail, very friendly staff and a fantastic optometrist. Totally recommended
C. G. D.
I had an appointment at 4:30 last Friday for eye exam and eye test for contact lens. The receptionist attitude was so smart and she assist me well. verything was great especially the staff I would definitely recommend Chris he was well educated and professional. He done great job and his all explanation was clearly, he is highly recommended, thank you for the great service guys!
Y. A.
Asim has been extremely helpful. He took the time to make sure I was happy with the glasses I chose and went through the benefits of thinning and coating my lens which I purchased. He was extremely patient and professional and I have recommended him to me best friend. He made the whole experience so much less stressful. I am sure my friend will also agree on her visit.
M. B.
Just out of the store in Canary Wharf, London. Shout out to the team in general but particularly to Dr Andrew and the salesman Jayce. Amazing service and advice. Highly recommend them. Christmas bonus well deserved !
S. M.
Excellent eye check. Very helpful optician not trying to sell but just giving a clear assessment of the eye tests.
J. K.
Surprised to read all those bad reviews here. Got a free eye test voucher and made an appointment in canary wharf. Apparently smth was wrong with the system, receptionist couldn't find my appointment booked, but still got me time to see optician. Had to wait literally 5 min. Optician was very young Chinese (I think) guy, but he was super polite and knew what he was doing (not my first eye check) and done his job very quickly and explaining everything. Got my prescription and definitely will be back to order new pair of glasses from them.
A. T.
Excellent service today at Vision Express Canary Wharf. I walked in without an appointment to fix my glasses and was seen to immediately even though the store was very busy.The problem was fixed within 15 minutes and I wasn’t charged a repair fee! Thanks Darek.
B. N.
Fantastic service. Good explanation of procedures and my eyesight. Sensible advice re my future needs re glasses.
N. B.
Vision Express Canary Wharf are very convenient if you work in the area, as you can get an eye test at lunchtime or after work. I wear contact lenses and glasses, so have used them for both eye health and sight tests. Their opticians are polite and professional, and have always provided me with useful advice. I once had a problem with the contact lenses I was wearing, so I stopped by and they gave me a free pair of replacement lenses.
The negatives of Vision Express are the sales staff, they're pushy and only interested in up-selling you on everything they can. The prices are also quite high, so I usually buy everything I need elsewhere.
C. A. (.
I was greeted with a smile and was approached politely by Reanna, Dariusz and Barbara. They were very helpful with my queries. It was truly a pleasant journey to trying to find a pair of glasses that would suit me. I also felt that I was treated with respect. Well done to this team/branch and thank you.
M. T.
The first time i didnt like the glasses i picked so i went back and they gladly changed them the girl was lovely and i cant wait to pick up my new choice.
I. L.
I have been in a few times recently and every time, everyone is always so friendly and willing to listen and answer any and all questions and concerns I have, during, before and after the tests!

I've had mixed visits here, but my most recent was excellent. My lovely Greek optician (sorry i forgot your name) was great and gave me good eye care advice with relation to diabetes in my family. Then he tested me and resolved my issues. Getting frames was a bit tricksy at first, but once I got a brilliant staff member in Dariusz everything fell into place.

I had an eye examination and bought some new glasses here (designer 2 for 1 deal) - the exam was thorough, the staff were attentive, knowledgeable and helpful - and the two pairs of glasses were quickly made for me - one pair was ready in an hour, the other took a couple of days. All in all, great service.
M. B.
Fantastic customer service from Dariusz. Spent an hour advising my wife on various frame options and lenses, very knowledgeable and friendly. Thank you and we will definitely come back!
M. G.
I looked to temporary glasses before my eye surgery. So I visited probably 6 different brands shops and all the shops tried to sell for me expensive frames and lenses, i noted that I need them just for 2 weeks makes no difference. In this shop Lily Begum understand me straight away what I need and she offered cheapest option to me. I got a high quality service from her and I will highly recommend this branch for my friends. Thank you
R. C.
Went in with a faulty frame that a bought in October last year. I have the insurance so it was covered but would mean them being sent away which would mean I have no glasses. Dariusz was fantastic and just swapped over the entire frame there an then - sorted in 15 minutes. Great service.

This is a big shout out to Andy and Nicola after being told by my doctors to make an appointment, from walking into the branch on Friday Andy put me at ease, his examination was extremely thorough and gave some great advice, Nicola was amazing, helped me find a pair of glasses that suited me, nothing was too much trouble and more importantly didn't rush me.
Thanks again guys

First time ever writing a review only because none of the bad reviews can be justified. My visit today was beyond exceptional, Harry, Chris and Wemi were all very helpful and knowledgeable. At each stage I was explained what every test does and it's results were also explained to me. I've been with Vision Express for 10 years have never had an experience like this. Won't be dreading any eye checks again - Thank you team!
W. K.
Eye test was amazing. Thank you Tasnim. However, I don't like the sales man. He seems not very like his work.
T. B.
Got my eye test done as soon as I arrived, even though the appointment wasn't till 20 minutes later. The staff were very friendly and explained everything to me clearly, and they were very helpful in choosing my glasses.
S. V.
I visited this place few times. I had my eyes check test and I changed my glasses. They have so many glasses frames, I am sure you can find what suit you. If you want to change your glasses I recommended attend this place.
N. G.
I read reviews before the appointment and expected something terrible. However we have got an excellent service. We didn’t wait more than 3 minutes at any stage of our experience. Stuff was very helpful and friendly. Especially Harry who made an extra effort and called me after the purchase because he found our lost case.
P. B.
Delivered when it mattered!
My current glasses broke after 6 years. Am heading abroad for trip at the weekend. Went into store at 08.30am. Selected frames. Lenses in stock (unlike local rival). I worked late. But I was able to collect at 7.30pm. Excellent!
L. H.
Great customer service. Replaced both nose pads on a two year old pair of glasses at no charge. Seemed to be operationally challenged after remodeling the store six months ago, but has settled down now and I've only had a good experience on my last few visits.
K. K.
The optometrist who looked after me is very very professional and the staff who help me after eyes test is so friendly and caring.
L. D.
I had a brilliant service today from all the staff, and a really in depth eye test with good advice (not just trying to give me the most expensive option, but the best for me which I really appreciated), people in Canary Wharf tend to have incredibly busy schedules and therefore their standards can be higher than the norm so I feel that the slightly negative reviews reflect this, but for the average person you guys are great and couldn't have done anything better; thank you.
K. L.
I go to the branch in Canary Wharf. They are very friendly and helpful, I have been with this branch for a good 6 years now maybe. Always has a nice experience and service from them :)
M. T.
I would like to appreciate and nominate Dina for delivering such a professional level of customer service. She also fixed my broken glasses in a blink, whereas even my glasses is not from your company.
M. J.
Great experience, very friendly and efficient staff, would highly recommend
A. A.
Excellent customer service, Mr Darek puts clients concerns and needs at the centre of attention and addresses them thoroughly. He’s also very knowledgable and gives a good advice. Overall: friendly staff, broad range of frames and very good lighting unlike their competitors where their lighting is not as good.
S. H.
Very friendly staff/service. Got very fast an appointment. My eye test was with Dr. Andrew, who was splendid.

I’ve been a loyal customer of Vision Express Canary Whraf branch since 2013. During this period I’ve have had one or two issues with the priscription glasses and the reason I still stay so loyal and committed to this branch is solely because of top staff members like Daiusz (Assistant Store Manager) and also Harry (team leader). I firmly believe this company needs a lot many people like them. To start with never came across someone with a more in-depth knowledge about optics as Daiusz. I’ve learned some much about lenses, vision and also eye care in general. He’s very committed to his line of work and amazingly polite and professional. Was led to Daiusz and harry as a really frustrated customer due to a proscription order gone horrabilly the wrong way. Their patience to hear out my case and offer very customised service and commitment did make me change my decision to stay with Vision express. Daiusz truly ace customer service and ability to handle a complex situation with ease. All the best !

I just want to say, I had the best customer service today in Canary Wharf from an amazing woman called Nicola. What a lovely, friendly helpful girl, I walked out of there so happy, she really brightened up my day! Thankyou so much vision express x
A. U.
Outstanding service from Andrew and Lai, a very tailored personal opticians. Shocked such integral services exist in the current saturated health industry.
C. B.
Amazing service and support, both for myself and my 6 y old daughter. Lai Yin Lee, you are the best! You take your time to listen, act accordingly to any worries and offer the best options. Thank you indeed.

Really helpful staff and I got good discounts and deals too

After a dreadful experience recently at the White City branch, I was pleased to find that the one person who had been very helpful there in the past, Dariusz, is now at the Canary Wharf branch, so, as I was passing, I went in to see him and talk about what had happened at White City, which seems to have gone downhill again since he left, in my opinion.
The Canary Wharf shop is much smarter and seems all round more efficient and professional.
I didn't trust the recent eye test I'd had done at White City, so had it rechecked at Canary Wharf by Zara (I think), who was very thorough and helpful and confirmed that the recent test at WC was indeed wrong, which was good, if a little frustrating, to know.
Big thanks to Dariusz, who was amazing again - super-helpful and really knows his stuff, so the whole process of taking measurements for the frames and varifocal lenses etc. was smooth and reassuring, as he'd done such an excellent job of that for me a year ago at WC, where he'd sorted out a few problems I'd had with (my first) vari-lenses.
Collected my new glasses from Dariusz yesterday and I'm happy with them so far, but I know that if I do have any problems, he'll go out of his way to help with that.
I cannot comment on the rest of the staff or store, but from my first experience at Canary Wharf, I am very pleased to be able to leave a good review.
I think a lot of the experience you get in places like this depends on the member of staff you see.
They need to clone Dariusz and put one of him in every branch, and then I think the ratings would generally go up..!
D. A.
I came to buy eyeglasses. Prices seem to be higher than average. Sales personnel was helpful. Eye test was performed by Zeinab very professionally I have to say. Nothing I can really complain about.
K. K.
