Reviews

  • Well organised, friendly and professional opticians. My first encounter with them was via an emergency appointment. My daughter (aged 8) managed to get some grit in her eyes while walking down the high street and it was quite painful as, understandably she kept rubbing her eyes. After visiting 2 local health care providers who both refused to see her as we didn’t have an appointment, we came across Orpington Eyecare centre and the owner thankfully fitted us in immediately in between patients. Mr Patel is a brilliant practitioner with dedicated, caring staff. We will be using this opticians going forward. This is an independent opticians and the quality of care is evident. I highly recommend.

    Fast efficient service. Easy to make a telephone booking, lead times less than a week for an appointment, clean and well managed premises and seen on time. Optician very good and efficient.

    Was given a very quick appointment, no months/weeks waiting. On arrival all Covid safe, hand sanitizers available, and I was wearing a mask as requested. Was seen on time, and consultation was very thorough and professional. My condition was explained to me in language I could understand, and referral for further investigation and treatment was made. Very happy with the whole experience , which was professional but also friendly and put my mind at ease.

    Updated review. 28th January 2026. Today was my two year check up. As always the staff are very friendly and knowledgeable. Dr Patel was excellent with the eye test and explaining everything. Once again excellent service 7th May. It was just a small issue with my glasses, but as always were well treated and looked after my staff. Can never fault the service or the politeness of the staff Dr Patel and his staff are brilliant. They handled my cancelled booking with care. Thank you Mary The eye test is throughly done by Dr Patel. Have I been attending for a few years now. I like that I can see my previous visits results and compare with this latest eye tests. I like that you get a text reminder the day before your appointment. Would fully recommend for eye tests

  • Great attention to detail when being taught about contact lenses. My 8year daughter had a good experience with her eye test, and learnt more about her eyesight. Thank you.

    Professional and friendly. I’ve been suffering with itchy eyes for weeks and after an examination I now have a diagnosis and treatment. Really impressed.

    I must thoroughly recommend this service. The whole experience from booking an appointment, through the eye test, to selecting and finally picking up my new prescription spectacles has been highly professional, courteous and friendly. I have worn spectacles for over 60 years and the eye test was probably the most thorough I have ever had and no time was spared discussing my sight and needs with the optician and dispensing optician. A very professional business. Thank you.

    I needed replacement driving glasses urgently and found an appointment online within a couple of days and received my new glasses within a week. A clean, safe atmosphere with social distancing. Professional, friendly staff.Sadly, higher prices due to lowering of the value of the £ due to BREXIT. But I can recommend the centre warm heartedly.

  • Nish is a great Optician! Very friendly and professional who took the time to deal with my eyesight. A big change from the usual high street Optician with a nice selection of glasses. Thanks for the thorough eye test and see you in 2 years!!
