I visited Island Optical for the first time last week in a desperate bid to get my lenses changed before I left the country in three weeks. They were able to fit me in that day, where I meet with the optometrist Claude, who was extremely kind and helpful. I was told it could take up to 2 weeks for my lenses to be fitted to my current frames which would be tight but doable. Imagine my surprise when 3 business days later they were ready to be collected. Island optical proved themselves to have brilliant service and be very accommodating.

A business that cares! My dad was visiting tasmania and broke his glasses, and they kindly helped him fix them on the spot.

Stopped in to inquire about frame repair. The gentleman who helped me said 'no problem, just 5-10min'. I asked about how much & he said no charge. Absolutely excellent service & so friendly!

Always receive good service and outcomes at Island Optical. Today was my first eye test after having cataracts removed. Andrew provided exceptional service and clear explanations of what he was doing and suggesting. I now have a good understanding of where my eyes are at and the journey they have been through. Cannot thank him enough for his attention to detail and his customer care.
