  • The best optician and new glasses experience I have ever had. Very professional all the way through the process. Excellent advice regarding choice of frames and lens type resulting in a very great pair of glasses even tho I have a complex prescription. Because of my prescription new glasses can be a bit disappointing but not these, they are superb. Thank you!

    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

  • Took my 3 year old son for a check up as other opticians wouldn’t see him as he’s too young. He was made to feel at ease and treated super nice while doing the test. My son came out happy and enjoy the visit and everything went great.

    I have seen Nish at Orpington Eye Care for over 5 years. The customer service is exemplary, from start to finish. The front desk is friendly and the customer is treated as an individual, and not like being on a conveyor belt. My new specs were expensive but are supremely comfortable, if a bit more than I planned to spend. Eye test is thorough and professionally carried out. Nish is my go to optician. Thanks to all OEC.

  • I have been seeing Mr. Patel for a number of years now and I can say I wouldn’t see another optometrist. His expertise and bed side manner is amazing! Him and his team has always been very helpful through the years. Thank you very much
