In
January
I
had
a
cataract
removed
from
one
eye
and
laser
treatment
to
my
other
eye
to
remove
a
PCO
left
behind
from
a
previous
cataract
removal
(experienced
excellent
care
and
sight
vastly
improved).
As
instructed
by
the
surgeon
after
being
discharged
from
their
care
I
made
an
appointment
at
Specsavers
Witham
to
arrange
an
eye
test
and
to
get
new
prescription
glasses
as
obviously
my
current
ones
were
no
longer
fit
for
purpose.
I
made
the
appointment
online
and
filled
out
the
questionnaire
fully
explaining
the
reason
for
my
early
booking.
I
arrived
at
the
store
on
my
allotted
appointment
day
and
time,
the
lady
on
the
desk
asked
my
name
and
then
abruptly
said
“you
are
not
due
until
July,
why
are
you
here
now”,
I
explained
all
the
above
and
was
met
with
“oh,
are
you
ok
going
upstairs”,
no
apology.
Went
upstairs
and
had
the
standard
eye
checks
and
then
after
a
little
wait
went
in
to
see
the
optometrist,
who
immediately
asked
why
I
was
there
as
I
am
not
due
until
July,
again
I
explained,
eye
check
was
carried
out
without
issue
but
at
the
end
I
was
asked
where
I
had
had
the
treatment
and
was
then
told
“that
I
was
lucky
to
have
such
a
good
outcome
with
my
treatment,
not
everyone
has
such
a
good
outcome”?
I
got
the
impression
that
they
were
disappointed
that
I
no
longer
needed
varifocals
and
only
needed
glasses
for
reading.
Went
back
downstairs
to
choose
frames
and
an
assistant
approached
and
asked
if
I
had
any
vouchers,
which
I
did
have
and
handed
to
her,
she
said
“oh,
the
optometrist
has
not
put
your
prescription
on
the
paperwork”
(she
had
as
I
watched
her
do
it
upstairs
and
I
was
given
a
copy).
The
assistant
goes
off
and
then
comes
back
and
says
that
I
cannot
use
the
voucher
and
started
to
quote
prices
on
glasses,
at
this
point
I
said
that
I
would
leave
it
for
now
and
come
back.
The
upshot
of
this
is
that
I
found
an
online
company
that
made
my
glasses
to
my
prescription,
and
I
am
extremely
happy
with
them.
My
family
and
I
will
no
longer
use
Specsavers
anymore,
which
is
a
shame
as
previously
we
had
been
extremely
happy
with
them.
I
work
in
a
customer
facing
role
and
if
I
treated
my
customers
with
this
level
of
service,
I
am
sure
that
I
would
be
reprimanded
by
my
superiors.
I
have
already
filled
out
a
feedback
form
which
Specsavers
texted
to
me
after
my
appointment
but
have
not
had
any
response
as
yet.
