I’ve been coming here for quite a few years now for my eye exams, always great, friendly service. I have 5 pairs of Dresdens and a few extra pairs of interchangeable arms… I get great compliments and am able to match my glasses with my outfits.

Nearly two decades since my last eye check and glasses. The receptionist and optometrist were very friendly and professional. I was somewhat apprehensive but they both made me feel welcome and comfortable. I found out that I do have an issue to deal with but nothing major or anything to panic about. The receptionist was very helpful and encouraging in helping me choose colours for my glasses. I was very please with a discount for new customer and now looking forward to receiving my new glasses.

I had a great experience at Dresden Vision. There was waiting around and no high-pressure selling, just honest recommendations from a thorough but friendly doctor. The whole process was efficient, and I left feeling well taken care of. Highly recommended!

I just had the most lovely experience at this shop. Staff were extremely helpful and professional. Simon, the optometrist, was awesome and kindly answered any of my questions. I signed up online and got 50% off my two multifocal lenses/frames. I can't wait to get them. The colour range made it hard to decide which ones to get as there are so many options 🤣❤️. Highly recommend.

Totally sold!!! I was skeptical and it’s taken me ages to get a pair. I’ve been using a pair of Dresden now for 2 weeks and I absolutely love them. They’re really cool, lightweight & well made. I’ll be a repeat customer for sure.
