A great service

I recently had my first consultation at this pray and felt that it was thorough and professional. The optician and the rest of the team were all friendly and helpful. The examination was carefully conducted and my new varifocals are a big improvement on my previous ones. Follow up appointments for retinal scan and AMD risk screening were reassuring. I was given lots of information at every stage.

Dr Janjua is exceptional

Friendly caring staff and the optometrist, Dr Janjua is brilliant. He listens, takes all the time needed to find the exact prescription for your eyes and then talks you through the results, leaving you feeling confident your lenses will be perfect.

Very professional

After struggling with headaches and not feeling like my last prescription was quite right, Sheeraz was very thorough, professional and took the time to explain what was happening with my eyesight.
The whole team were lovely especially Annette who helped choose the best glasses for me!
I will definitely be back.

Excellent opticians, particularly for light therapy for AMD

All members of staff have been kind, caring and helpful during my courses of treatment for AMD. Eye examinations have been thorough and helpful advice always available. It has been worth battling through the traffic for an hour and a half to reach this opticians, offering treatment not available in many places. Many thanks to all.

Old fashioned service

Appointment on time
Gave me confidence with complicated eye problems and pointed me in the right direction for the right specialist to hopefully sort out my problems.
Will use as my optician from now.
Would recommend the practice of Flynns

I recently had an eye examination with Dr Janjua, who was very thorough and explained everything clearly. Following an extensive check up, including an eye scan, an issue was identified in my right eye and I was referred to Queen’s Medical Hospital. I am very pleased with the excellent care and service provided by Dr Janjua and the team at John Flynn Opticians.
