Optometrist

Dr. Chris De Guzman is a life saver. I haven’t been able to see clearly for the last year. He determined my old prescription was way too strong. I also wanted to try multifocal contact lenses, but have had no success in the past. He fit me in multifocal lenses today and I’ve never had such clear vision in my life! I am now able to see far away and up close without having to take my glasses on and off. I’m actually typing this on my phone right now while wearing my new multifocal lenses! So happy!

I came in today and purchased my eye glasses . I was in the other day and put a pair of frames on hold till I received my prescription. The gentlemen I dealt with when picking the frame was a great gentlemen, helpful and very professional. Super friendly and always had a smile on his face. When I came in with my prescription I was helped by a young blonde lady and she was fully of happiness and when I asked her what she thought of the frame she told me the complete truth , which I appreciated greatly b cause without glasses it’s hard for me to see how they looked on me. She was very friendly and helped me feel confident about my choice for glasses. We discussed different progressive lenses with her as well. Her explainations where perfect and she drew diagrams of lenses to get the meaning across, which definitely helped in making my decision on which to go with . In the end I decided to go with Visual Harmony Nikon lenses with transition and all the coatings. However she did explain she wasn’t an optician and was unable to do the optical measurements and said she would get her co- worker who was an optician ( experienced optician) he came after a few calls from the young lady . She did call and ask for measurements a few times and he took his precious time which was a little annoying to me and to the lady who worked their. When he finally came to the counter to do the measurements after several several minutes and said he would be doing the measurements and asked what lenses and frames. When the lady employee told him what the order was I was able to smell a lot of cigarette smoke on him and was able to smell alcohol or something very high in mint flavour from him . I thought that was odd and kept on seeing how he was doing the measurements and he was a little shaky which he explained was natural for him. After he did all the measurements he went back to the back and sat down and was doing something. When the lady employee explained the order for me again , I mentioned something was off and I asked if he was alright and if he did them properly. The employee lady said he did them correctly from what she knew , not being and optician. I told her he smelled like smoke and mint alcohol something and she apologized greatly and felt terrible. I can honestly say the young lady employee is the only reason I purchased the glasses this day cause she was friendly and helpful. She also apologized to me and it made me realize that she deserves the praise for the crowfoot location. She handled herself professionally and was very mature and friendly. I know I put her on the spot with all of the questions and the situation but she handled it like a professional employee. She multitasked a few things and made me feel happy about the service and of my purchase,even though some aspects of the experience were questionable . The gentlemen the day before and the young lady employees were great and deserve recognition for the effort and work they provide. I will definitely be back and will tell people about the location and it’s employees but be a little cautious on which optician I receive . Who knows maybe things will change and he will change and maybe not but there’s a time to be professional to the customer clients and what not.

I wish I could give zero stars to this business. I brought my 3 year old here to get his first pairs of glasses. After much deliberation, we settled on two separate frames for him. Not only did they order the wrong frames for him, they blamed me for the error and then tried to charge me more to correct their mistake. Do not use this location, they are unscrupulous and can't get your request filled accurately.

Optometrist was great. When I got my prescription to take elsewhere, they would not include the pupillary distance which is kind of key to having a proper prescription. They charge extra for it but don’t tell you that in advance. I’d have no problem with it if they actually gave you the information upfront but they don’t.

Had nothing but fantastic service from the team at IRIS Cochrane - highly recommended x

Amazing experience, Tammy and David are friendly and take the time to help me with picking out glass with their advise.

Dr. Halvorsen was a absolute pleasure to see. She was very professional and took the time to explain what she was doing and how it impacts me. Highly recommended!

Jaffery optical braeside is an awesome place to get glasses, the doctor is very helpful and knowledgeable, she answered all my questions I had with detailed answers. As well as the two ladies in the front, Rhonda and Laura who were both really helpful when it came to picking out frames, I really appreciated the honesty and great prices. I really enjoyed my experience here, and I will for sure be coming back. thanks so much !

Very good worked done here. People are helpful and very friendly

My daughter and I both see the same optometrist at the Glenmore Landing Vision Centre. We think he's great and he does a wonderful job with kids! She feels super grown up (she's 3) because she feels comfortable enough to do everything on her own.

The doctor and staff were fantastic with my almost-3-year-old. It's a friendly, welcoming, comfortable atmosphere.

In the last 22 years I have been to many many optometrist stores. I happen to find this store shopping next door for groceries. From the eye exam to ordering the glasses was smooth and no issues what so ever. I found the staff to be so personable which I truly appreciate . But I think the thing for me was the selection in glasses ect. I ordered two pairs of glasses and one pair of sun glasses. I've never found 3 pairs that I have loved!!! Great selection and already mentioned store/ location to friends. Thanks, Bonnie Miller Calgary Ab

It's now closed.

Great service, and very friendly. Answered all questions I had, and trained me to use contacts for the first time.

Excellent personalized service. Extensive selection of frames. Good prices.

I was quite impressed with Dr. Doig. He took the time to explain what he was doing and he was very thorough with his examination. My first eye exam in many years, yet I felt very comfortable from the time I walked in until the time I left. The front office staff were very friendly and the place was super clean. They sanitized everything right after someone used or touched it. Thank You, Dr. Doig - I will recommend you to all of my friends.

I did an exam in this terrible eye clinic and the results are totally wrong., So much wrong!! (East India girl) I don't remember her name.
