    I suffer from dry eyes and blepharitis. After doing some research, I came across IPL ( Intense pulsed light) and after 2 sessions at a different clinic, I set up an appointment with Orpington Eyecare centre, where I had another 2 sessions. Mr Patel answered my many questions patiently and he offered advice on how to alleviate the symptoms of blepharitis and dry eyes. He also gave me a lot of advice on which eyedrops to use, which tablets to take and how to use a wand for dry eyes. I felt the treatment I received from Dr Patel, including the IPL sessions, was more thorough than at the first clinic and that he used better equipment to assess and treat me including radio frequency technology. The lady at the reception is also very sweet.

  • Absolutely brilliant service. I really wish I'd got the optician's name-he was so quick and efficient. He saw me as an emergency case during Lockdown and I can't tell you how grateful I am, I could hardly see out of my old glasses! I just collected my varifocals after 10 days, my reading glasses should be ready in about a week. #SupportLocalBusiness

    Very good practice. As an Optician I found Mr Patel very professional and felt that he cared about my concerns answering my questions during the eye test. I also have to say that I am quite surprised at the quality of the lenses compared to my previous ones. My old glasses were always getting smeared and I kept on cleaning them but this doesn’t happen with my new equipment! Way better quality than my previous Optician.

    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.

    I woke up yesterday morning with a vision problem that I suspected might be a detached retina. I called the Orpington Eye Centre and got an appointment same day. Mr Patel examined me and confirmed my worst fears. He immediately called the hospital and I was seen at Kings College first thing this morning. I’m booked in for surgery on Friday. I want to thank Mr Patel for his diagnosis and for seeing me and referring me so quickly. Your eyesight is so important, so it’s great to know you have a good team behind you. The important takeaway is that if you suffer any vision problems or a change in your vision don’t waste time, go and see your optician as quickly as possible as time is of the essence.

    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.

  • Lovely practice with superb professional Optician and Staff to support. I really love the personal touch of the practice eg they know who all the clients are and by name, other chains do not have that. And because they are independent, their treatment offerings are quick different too. You never feel rushed either. I would recommend to any one and wouldn’t go back to a chain again. I’ve been customer for over 3 years now

    Mr Patel took great care taking me on as a new patient, and his examination was relaxed and efficient. His manner is professional but also friendly.

    Very professional and friendly service. Took time to explain all the tests and what the results meant. Premises very clean and spacious, no COVID concerns! Will definitely return when I need new glasses.
