Loblaw Optical

Amazing selection of frames, lots of designer brands at reasonable prices! No sales pressure and the staff are friendly and willing to answer any questions I had. The opticians there, Barbara and Joshua are some of the most knowledgeable and personable opticians I have ever dealt with (wearing glasses for 25 years). I have been in for a few adjustments and repairs and they are always friendly and efficient and I have never had an issue with the service. I will recommend all my family and friends go here for glasses now

I got 2 pairs of digital progressives, with transitions, and new frames for $598! I also got 25,000 PC Points with the deal of the week and I could't be happier with my new glasses. Other places I checked prices were quoting $800-$1000 just for one pair! All the staff has been very helpful from helping me pick frames that suited me, answering all my questions about my lenses and with doing adjustments after I picked them up. The doctor that did my exam was very thorough and it was only $85 for the full exam. Overall great prices and service

Went into Superstore Optical in Airdrie to get my glasses fixed where the arm was broken. I was speaking to a friendly enough woman regarding this when she asked another employee named "Josh" what he thought. He claimed they were "garbage" and "10 yrs old" and "unfixable".(I bought them there last year) When I showed him that it was just the arm that was broken and the screw just had to be removed he snarky said they didn't have spare parts, there was another customer he was dealing with at the time and I think he was embarrassed he was wrong. I was a little taken aback by his attitude. My wife purchases all her glasses and contacts there and I ordered a new set last week. I was there to get my son a new set that day as well because they had a 50% off sale. That will be the last time my family uses this store. "Josh" has a serious chip on his shoulder and I don't need to be treated with this lack of respect. We've never had a problem with any of the other employees there but this was enough to take our business elsewhere.

Amazing experience with Barbara! I have walked out of several eyeglass stores because the sales person is always telling me to look in the women's section when I do not like women's cat eye frames and only like unisex frames. All glasses stores should let the consumer pick out the glasses that fit their style and not bully them into buying from the rack on their gender. The glasses in this store are also not locked up so there isn't a sales person hovering over you staring at you and all the prices are on the frames. No sales pressure and found great glasses here!
