Customer Reviews

Recent customer feedback…

“I have been with Hammonds many years and they are without doubt the best opticians I have been to. The eye examination from Deven is very, very thorough, he takes a great deal of care and is always happy to go through everything with you afterwards, also, he is a true gentleman.
Every one of the staff are lovely, friendly and very, very helpful, nothing is too much trouble for them.
My husband and I would not go anywhere else.”

Shirley Watson June 2021

“Excellent personalised service, looking at the overall health of your eyes not just your current vision. Individual time is taken to explain everything in detail in an easily accessible way. All the staff at Hammonds are extremely helpful and very professional – I cannot rate then highly enough.”

Jeanette LoweMay 2021

“First time I have been to Hammond opticians. Excellent service. Really friendly & thorough, with meticulous attention paid to covid safe measures. The team clearly know and care about their customers, and I would recommend them to anyone.”

Amy FreeleyMay 2021

“Professional and thorough service from start to finish. Everything was explained, from my first contact to make an appointment, through to the most knowledgeable and patient help I’ve ever experienced in selecting the right frames and measuring for a perfect fit. The test itself was preceded by a phone call to take my history. The test is an enhanced test for the health of your eyes not just a sight test. It was well explained and detailed. They offer a plan of monthly payments to accommodate an annual test and cover any concerns you may have between tests. Covid measures are well considered and explained. Highly recommended.”

Lorraine FrisbyMay 2021

“The explanations, professionalism and friendliness of all the staff.
The feeling of not being rushed, but that time is taken to answer questions – I really appreciated that.
Overall, the sheer quality of the service. I would never contemplate going anywhere else for my eye health. This is a top quality practice which values its customers and takes pride in its work.”

Deborah DykinsJune 2021

“Hammonds is a friendly and professional operation. The staff all work well in conjunction with each other and their customers. When I was last there, there was a young child customer and me (70 ish) so a wide scope is catered for in an appropriate manner. Knowledge and professionalism”

Childrens Eyecare

Keeping it cool with the kids

It’s very important that children can see well, especially during the formative years.

At school if a child can’t see well there’s the danger they may get left behind academically. Regular annual eye exams ensure your child has the best opportunity to progress at school and in life.

At Hammond Opticians we place great emphasis on looking after children’s eyes and are specialists in providing solutions for treating myopia (short-sightedness). Read more about Myopia.

Customer Feedback & Comments

Hammonds [Opticians] offer the best service of any opticians I’ve used. When I forgot to pick up a product, Deven simply dropped it round on his way home and they charged me for it on my next visit. The staff are all friendly and knowledgeable – they’re never in a rush, and they never try to push you into buying anything.

I recently decided to try ortho-K lenses, which I first heard of through Hammonds. As someone who finds glasses annoying but never quite got used to contacts, these have been a revelation. I wear the lenses overnight, then remove them in the morning, and can see perfectly all day. It’s especially convenient for when I swim.

I’d recommend them to anybody who isn’t quite satisfied with glasses or contacts.

Ollie BondEnfield

[I was] Extremely happy with the service we received. All the staff are very pleasant and knowledgeable and Mr Lakhani’s communications skill are excellent.

Mum has struggled at previous opticians as she doesn’t read English so I searched online to find a practice that could help with numbers or shapes. Mr Lakhani explained everything very clearly and mum is very impressed.

Mrs Demetriou (& daughter Androulla)Hampstead

After promptings from my wife I switched from one of the “chains” to Hammond Opticians and what a revelation!

I was treated from the very beginning as a person and not simply as another patient on an everlasting treadmill. In addition, the technology on display was far beyond anything I have ever experienced before.

Mr Lakhani explained everything with great clarity and lucidity. The OCT scanner revealed a fault in my right eye [post cataract operation] which I did not even know I had and for that I am truly grateful.

I have no hesitation in recommending Hammond Opticians to anyone who is looking for a thoroughly professional service for their eye sight needs. I am sure you will be treated with civility and courtesy as I was.

Ivan MansleyEnfield – Max Mobilcom

I am very pleased with the service I have received at Hammond Opticians. I was seen with a concern, given a very thorough eye examination including internal images of my eyes which has put my mind at ease. Mr Lakhani is professional and pleasant, explaining everything at each step of the process.

I would recommend Hammonds over any of the ‘chains’
