## Reviews

Rated **4.8** on Google, 201 reviews, as at October 2026.
> I have been visiting this central city OPSM store for approximately 10 years, and have always been made very welcome. In later years Tim Robinson has attended to my eye inspections each year, and recommending changes to my spectacles as required. Meeting the same person each year is very important to me as you generate the trust of each other and you leave assured that your needs have been correctly made for the current condition of your eyes. You leave the store feeling very satisfied with your new specs., Murray Woodward, 3 months ago
> After initially being ignored when I entered the store and stood waiting at the counter for my booked appointment I was regretting my decision to change from Specsavers to OPSM but then the optometrist (Serge) who was doing my test came out and couldn't have been more friendly. I felt totally confident in his care and knowledge and no hard push to get me to buy new glasses. Serge even got the manager to tighten the arms on my existing glasses for me. The other staff in the branch need to brush up on their customer service skills though, even if you are with a customer it doesn't take a secon, Carey Poulter, 3 months ago
> Better to go to another shop than here. It’s the closest branch to us so we went here whenever we needed assistance but at no point were they helpful. Hard to get assistance when NO STAFF KNOW HOW TO DO BASIC THINGS like access information, order the glasses for us (they did not have what we wanted in store but could be ordered online, and we needed the information which they did not know how to access 🙄) or make a return. Had to go to Merivale branch to get help accessing our information. Then when we sorted our own order online, they cancelled our click and collect and the courier rang us t, Nikki Malagayo, 9 months ago
