After many years of scoffing at my husband in glasses, I needed some reading ones of my own. He's been going to Mrs Brazionis for years and has always had very professional, personal and efficient service.

I went through the testing procedures and the other requirements, finding her also easy to talk to and a good listener as well as being excellent at her job. I ended up getting lenses which can cope with distance as well as close up work.

The frame choice was difficult. So many of them are very expensive, but the receptionist was helpful in finding me some no-nonsense frames which have stood the test of time.

I'd have no hesitation in recommending her to anyone. But watch out for the hip pocket ... mine cost about $400, although I must say they are superb.
