I love the gang at Spex Appeal; from booking the eye test to picking up my second pair of Gregory Pecks this afternoon, it's been a pleasure. The eye test at the High Street branch was thorough and professional; the choice of frames available is great, and the prices fair, transparent, and good value.I'm always on the lookout for a slightly off-beat choice of frame, so I was chuffed to be introduced to the range from Flama ( I think Spex Appeal are the only Scottish stockists ) - suffice to say, I had to have them.The whole team are lovely, and funny, and kind. Thanks again folks!

l visited Spex Appeal for first time today as a friend recommended them to me. Well, l will definitely be back. Lynn and Alan were so friendly! Lynn was extremely helpful and chose various spectacles for me to try on and advised which ones suited me. They have a huge range to choose from, crazy colourful ones to sensible plain ones. Lynn told me she travels over to Milan to personally choose which spectacles she wants to sell in her shops. EXcellent service!

"Don't tar all Fiona's with the same brush - Fiona.”My mum has had such a great experience with Spex appeal & I will now be coming in for eye tests with my two boys.On behalf on Fiona’s everywhere. I apologise for that 1⭐️ review, obviously she’s not a real Fiona, we’re 100% faithful.

Returning customer. Recently bought another pair of quality sunglasses. Smashing price once again. Thank you SO much🫶🏻Side Note : The banter is that good in there I’d pay for an empty carrier bag just to get a wee extra visit back in to see the team 😜Keep up the good work. 5 ⭐ every time

I started using Spex Appeal a few months ago the staff were very friendly professional and gave me loads of advice to help me pick my first pair of Varifocal glasses which have been amazing and I have been able to adjust to them straight away . The glasses have also help with the glare off car headlights at night as well . I’ve been so happy with them I went back a few weeks ago and purchased a pair of sun glasses . There is loads of frames to choose from and advice to help you choose the right onesWould definitely recommend and will definitely be back in the future

Thanks so much to all the staff who have helped me with mine and my children's glasses. They are a very friendly and welcoming team.My daughter got her reading classes today after her visual stress test which we found out through spex appeal, that she required a different colour reading lens to what her school had recommended. Thank you so much.

First time at the Abbey Mill last week but have been a long standing customer with the High Street Store. I was so impressed with the range of glasses available. Owen and Alan gave a first class customer focussed experience and were so helpful. I am very happy with my purchases and the service I received. 10/10 highly recommend.

So thrilled with my experience here. Eye test on high street shop was great & very thorough, then 10/10 for the showroom in abbey mill too. Not pushy for sales at all and had honest opinions if frames suited me or not. Really happy with my glasses & will definitely recommend.

the Spex Appeal team have never failed us. We set them what we thought was an impossible task to deliver a replacement set of prescription goggles by Monday before we flew off on holiday, ordered on the Thursday. Not only did they deliver but they were still better value than others who couldn’t have delivered in time. It’s always good to support a local business over a big corporate chain but it’s so much easier when the local business is this good.

We’ve known Lynne since she started up. Only a short time. We wouldn’t go anywhere else now. The service is second to none. Excellent choice to choose from and the help she gives is fantastic.

Great place. Honest opinions as to what suits - never felt like I was being upsold anything. A personal service with a family appeal to the place. Wouldn’t go anywhere else now, and the glasses I got are absolute belters. A much more special experience than going to one of the larger chains. Also a fantastic range, I was spoiled for choice.

I started a new job which involved a lot more computer work, I was told I needed glasses for the 1st time in my life,in my 50's it was a daunting thought but these guys made it the easiest & most comfortable experience for me. Chose my frames, glasses were ready within a week & had them delivered to my house - amazing service from beginning to end!!!!
