While they could have a wider variety of frame choices, no one can fault their exemplary customer care and attention to detail. There's no reason to go anywhere else in Mount Eliza for your eye care needs, these guys are simply the best!

I liked the services, William assisted and advised me and the team is so good people, I was there after another optometric consultation I needed a second opinion and TOS helped me with my situation and answered and explained me very well my inexperience questions I'm not optometrist so he could understand me and resolve my issue and gave 2 glasses a good price. 😀 ✌️

I had an issue with my glasses and I started being very worried about it because of my travel.Kath finds a solution for my situation.My glasses were made in Tasmania and my travel was without a real destination.She contacted the store in Tasmania and she ordered the glasses in her shop. When everything was ready she sent me a list of the Optical superstore around me and she made sure I received the glasses in Queensland!I am very glad and very thankful for the kindness and the way Kath communicated with me!I have my glasses and also an amazing woman that cared about all the situations that happened to me!I am also happy with the glasses, I love them and the price was affordable.❤️ I am glad I was in your optical superstore ❤️Thank you Kath and team!

I went to the OSS at Westlakes for the first time after going elsewhere for years. My script never felt really right but I thought it was as good as it was going to get. But after going to the OSS at WL I have not seen this clearly since I was a kid!Max the optometrist is excellent. He definitely has the passion and knowledge. I felt confident that I would finally get a script that was right for me.Bianca who helped me pick my frames was also excellent. She was honest about frame choice for my face and colouring, and now I can’t wait to pick up my new glasses and see again.I highly recommend the OSS at WL, you will not be disappointed.Thanks again!

Absolutely phenomenal service! My four year old daughter developed conjunctivitis whilst on holidays. They saved the day with their stellar service! Managed to squeeze us in at the end of the day so we could start effective treatment.Unfortunately it was all too much like hard work for the bigger optometrist chain just up the corridor: whom we won’t mention…rhymes with lifesavers.Very grateful Optical Superstore!!! You guys are absolute legends!!!

Excellent customer service. Eye appointment with Optometrist very thorough and the front of desk staff really helpful. Even after I had issues with the glasses later they were able to fix the issue at no charge. Completely satisfied with the staff at Maroochydore.

Recommended to Michael at Optical Superstore by local Pharmacist due to eye Injury. Staff went out of their way to accommodate me considering I didn’t have an appointment. Michaels care and attention exceptional and plan to heal damage to cornea a success and surgery not required.Because of the care and attention I was given I went on to have my annual eye check and Michael, Nick and all staff exceptionally helpful with the process and I’ll be a regular from now on. I highly recommend Optical Superstore in Mt Eliza.

Paula Dunnett

It was very good. Naomi was excellent in testing my eyes. And Larry really took his time to explain everything to me which was very helpful for choosing new frames. Great service, definitely coming back.

I have been getting glasses from the 2 for $199 Specialists for the past 10 years. Going to Optical Superstore literally opened my eyes! The onsite Optometrist gave me the first vision test where I felt comfortable with the results. The staff were extremely friendly and helpful I explained my preferences for frames, and they showed me the glasses from the range that would not only suit my face but meet my requirements instead of staring at 1000 pairs they made the selection simple. Very quick turnaround on receiving the glasses and the quality of the lenses was far superior to what I had become used to. Real clarity in vision that I did not realize that I had been missing. True professionalism and a great experience. I would highly recommend this business to anyone .

Martin McDonald

12:03 04 Apr 24

Reasonable charges, Detailed Diagnosis, on time delivery of my glass. What else I can ask? It was a great experience much better than an any other opticians provided me even in any hospitals before. I definitely recommend.

Lester Martis

06:25 01 Apr 24

Who knew getting your eyes tested and specks selected could be such an enjoyable experience. EVERYONE from the optometrist to the retail staff were fun, caring, knowledgeable, personable and friendly! left with some slick specks and five new friends. Well worth considering if you can’t read this review clearly… 😎

Heaps Good

01:07 16 Mar 24

I have just had the most amazing experience. I fell over and damaged my glasses to the extent that I thought they were impossible to fix. Gill was able to restore them to perfection. I am so grateful for the time taken and Gill's amazing expertise. It was also good to catch up with Fran who is always friendly and very professional. Well done and no wonder we never go elsewhere!

Chris Bennett

01:23 06 Mar 24

Had an eye test and new glasses purchased today, optometrist Rachael and the rest of the staff were excellent to deal with, after disappointing dealings with goldcoast specsavers ,it was a, nice change

Greg Needham

I had a good experience with the team at The Chermside Optical Store. I was looking for a pair of 'Flip up Sunglasses' that fit over my reading glasses used when I'm driving (which helps heaps when you own prescription glasses). The courtesy of the staff was excellent. I felt looked after even for the smallest item which cost next to nothing in the store. This was my first visit to the store. This is my first experience, no-one elses & I didn't come particularly for sunglasses either. It was handy at the time that I thought about buying them for my new specs.I thank the team of The Optical Super Store for doing such a great job.Anyone looking for a place where they want to feel they want to be looked after with their reading scripts for reading, I would recommend this store to everyone because of my experience that I had there lately.

Purchased a pair of bifocals from Optical Superstore Morley a short while ago. The glasses are excellent and although I had minimal coverage from my fund, the deal I received was very good indeed. The staff were helpful too.

This was such a positive experience for meThe clinician was great and very knowledgeable and understanding ,The front counts staff were great and the gentleman that helped me find glasses that would suit my face was a great experience also .

Great service, simple and easy to get my new glasses. They came in really quick as well. Will be back.

Daniel Turner

11:19 08 Feb 24

A comedy of errors resulted in my having to seek a refund BUT ... every effort was made to resolve every issue, with the staff going above and beyond to help. On every visit (or call) to the store I was met with understanding and possible solutions. No pressure, coercion or shifty salesmanship was ever applied, just creative problem solving. Even though I personally didn't walk away with a new pair of specs (my husband did tho, and he loves them!) I can't praise the staff highly enough - and thank you Jason, you were exceptional!

Gail Attwood

01:56 08 Feb 24

I found Steve the Manager, Jane the Receptionist and Julie the Optometrist at the Morley Optical Superstore very professional and helpful. I didnt like the attitude of the other lady I first met at the reception. Steve in particular was very proactive in resolving an ongoing issue I have had with the glacier coating on my Shamir lenses which wears off after about a year despite me being very careful when cleaning the lenses. When the coating wears off it leaves lines across the lens. Shamir agreed to replace the lenses and the coating at their own cost. I might not get the glacier multicoating on my next pair.I prefer the Shamir Lenses to Specsavers's Manufacturer, as they are of higher quality especially since I have high prescription lenses. If I hadnt asked for Steve, this would not have been resolved to my satisfaction. Thank you Steve for your time & effort in resolving this, it is much appreciated.I had been going to the Whitfords Store for many years and Katie & Kingsley were absolutely great in their customer service skills. Now that the Whitfords Store is closed, I have to travel 30 mins each way to the Morley Store but it is well worth it as I havent found better lenses anywhere else yet.I have found The Optical Superstore to provide the best value for money so far and their lenses from Shamir have been the best for me. I have no hesitation in recommending Steve & the ladies mentioned above, be weary of the other lady at reception, she can be quite abrupt.

Recently visited to look for new multifocal glasses as the competitors were too expensive for the glasses I liked. The staff were wonderful, gave me lots of options and I found the glasses I loved at a fantastic price and with the high end options for the lenses. Definitely recommend and will get glasses again here.
