Boots Opticians Sheffield - Meadowhall

The screen was hard to read as the optician didn't want to move the pole that was obstructing the screen in the middle.
Apparently my prescription has reduced, however I am not convinced as I wasn't sure at all of the quality of my contact lens check.
In the last 17 years I have never been told not to wear my lens for twenty minutes after the orange dye is put in- usually the optician adds some solution to my eye to rinse out the orange dye. The optician had never heard of this nor was prepared to do it.
I won't be going to the same optician again.

I was given a very detailed explanation of my prescription problems and needs by my optometrist, which for me was very reassuring and helpful.
My daughter's eye examination was fantastic. Ghulam Auram gave us an incredible amount of information about the eye and sight. This was the best, most interesting eye examination I've ever been to and I have worn glasses myself for 22 years.
The optometrist didn't take any real time to look at my eyes or even be bothered to look at my history when it comes to my eyes/previous visits to the opticians. A machine/computer doing it all doesn't fill me with confidence and I think it's a huge mistake near enough eradicating the human optometrist.
The staff member who did my initial eye checks didn't seem at all confident in the job she was doing either.
All staff members seem to talk to you as if you're a bit dim - infuriating when you've been wearing glasses for 25 years.
All this after my appointment being late (and me only being called in when I spoke to a staff member to ask what was going on - I wasn't approaches before this, the staff seemed too busy having personal chats) is extremely disappointing and I have lost any faith I had in boots opticians. I won't be returning in 2 years time.
To top it off I paid £25 for the "privilege". Absolute joke.
