Oscar Wylee New Zealand Customer Reviews

Hear what our beloved #OW customers had to say about our frames and services

“My sister broke her only glasses 6 days before we are going overseas. Her optometrist wasn't being helpful, so I rang my optometrist Oscar Wylee at Albany Mall. Sayed, was incredibly kind and helpful and let us know there was a same day glasses place here in Auckland but there were also some in the Gold Coast where we're going. Sayed appeared super happy to help us and was lovely in his manner and he saved the day!! As a patient there as well the whole team is just so friendly and helpful and their selection of frames is more varied than other optometrists. I highly recommend this place!”

“Good place, we were the first customers of the day, the welcome and first impressions from the store person could have been more welcoming. Didn't feel nice not being greeted felt like a number rather than a person, however as the appointment progressed the service improved. Not enough to turn me away but good feedback for them to improve their customer experience.”

“My new glasses were not giving me the clear vision I expected and needed and the optometrist did not hesitate to retest and correct the problem at no extra cost and apologised for making the wrong call on the first visit. Haven't got new glasses yet, but I’m happy they were willing to try and solve my problem straight away.”

“Went to get my son’s eye checked. The whole process was so smooth. The ladies at the desk were super helpful and professional. The optometrist was also very knowledgeable and also made sure that the whole checkup session was comfortable for a 6 year old kid. We have been told for a revisit a week after. I will surely recommend Oscar Wylee for any optometry related stuff.”

“The optometrist was really nice and explained well the test being done and the result. One of the saleslady wasn't very helpful and I did not feel assisted. Price is reasonable.”

“The glasses were not right the first time. However, the staff and OW management was very supportive and after a couple of trials glasses were fixed. They persevered until the problem was solved.”

“First ever eye exam in 38 years. Nothing but good things to say. Optometrist was lovely, explained everything well, and the eye test was at a reasonable price.”

“Very helpful care at both Central and Queensgate stores. After my examination, Johnathan told me I didn't need new glasses. Appreciated such honesty. I will return!”

“Everything was great, the only downside of my experience was when it came to choosing my frames the retail assistant followed me around the store while I browsed which made me feel very pressured. I was buying very expensive glasses which will be on my face every day and I wanted to take my time but felt that I was being hurried by her being right next to me that whole time. She was lovely and very helpful but I would have liked to be left alone to make my decision without feeling like I needed to hurry and finish the transaction as soon as possible.”

Having been to another chain store previously this experience was next level. If you're not sure just do it you won't be disappointed. Thanks for the brilliant service!”

“First time having an eye test after 8 years and the experience was so smooth. The optometrist was kind and patient and explained every step clearly so I understood what was happening and exactly how the health of my eyes were. Keep up the good work Oscar Wylee at Westfield St Lukes.”
