I bought both my elderly parents for an eye test . The whole process took from 11.30am until 2.30pm .
My father is 100 there are no toilets . So he was tired from the long test and endless questions and had to take him on a long walk to the toilets . We were so exhausted at the end I left without his prescription.
I rang through to ask for it to be sent twice . Each time it takes an incredibly long time to get through to store most times no answer . I rand for one hour on Sunday and again on Monday . Today I have come to collect it in person .
I explained to the lady the difficulties getting through . She says well we’re busy . . She went off to get it signed . I have been waiting 20 minutes and no one has cone back.
The staff do not explain or apologise . It is very frustrating.
People keep complaining how hard it is to get the appointment or how difficult it is to call. They forgot we live in unprecedented times with Covid and new measures must be implemented.
Everything was explained to me in a friendly manner and totally makes sense with social distancing it’s clear they can’t have more staff in store. They still try hard to meet the high demand. As a person working in retail I absolutely understand and hats off to the whole Brent Cross optician staff.

I would just like to thank Jyoti for the care she took in resolving my problems with my new glasses. Puts you at ease straight away. Jyoti comes over as a very caring person but very professional. Also mention for Zaffa who looked after my eye test.
I had the best experience at Boots Eye Clinic at Brent Cross that I've had in all the years that I've been going. I went in on spec. and luckily got the a very professional optometrist who happened to be free. She was friendly, well- informed and able to impart the information I wanted. She was able to provide me both with advice about my particular need (night driving into the glare of oncoming headlights) and the special type of lens necessary. She also had a nice sense of humour!
Her name ? Jyoti (number 3361?)
