OPSM Chermside

I was strolling past when I saw a 50% sale on frames. Having recently broken mine I thought i’d have a look.
I’ve been with OPSM for a long time, although this isn’t my usual store, although some of the optometrists working here are ones I’ve seen before.
I was greeted by one of the staff who offered to help me choose some frames, and I ended up booking in for a check up (I was due), and they had an appointment in ten minutes time, perfect!
The check is free, but they DO charge $ 60 for the photograph of your eyes. It’s completely optional, but if you have certain medical conditions it’s good to get that stuff checked out.
The optometrist was lovely and thorough, and I also got a free trial of some contact lenses, a new type that are far more comfortable to those I’d previously had.
In the end I came away ordering some new glasses, as well as covering them for damage and loss, well worth it in case I break these ones too!
Look, I know there’s places offering full sets of prescription glasses for next to nothing, and if I wore them only sometimes I’d probably do that, but for all day every day, I want nice, comfortable, hard wearing frames that I like the look of, and OPSM have a great range, and throw in your UV protection, scratch protection, thinner lenses, and all of a sudden that $ 100 pair isn’t really any less than what OPSM are charging.
Certainly can’t complain about this store, it’s a good one!
