The glasses are all out in the open and are mostly the same price (I think they are all the same "OQ" brand) so it makes it easy to try them on and make a decision. The staff were nice but not pushy and my glasses were ready after just over a week. That being said the glasses are not the best and you do get what you pay for. I was very happy with my glasses but have had to take them back to replace the arm's bolts.

Needed a new pair of sunglasses and was tired of paying a fortune. Spent some time researching places to get good quality affordable frames that was an actual store. I like to try stuff on so didn’t want online. Came across Ollie Quinn. I checked out their online selection before making the trip into the store. Candace was so helpful in helping me pick out frames that suited my face and didn’t rest on my cheeks. I liked how sturdy the frames felt and absolutely loved the price!! $245 for prescription sunglasses all in? I could hardly believe it, the only thing better was the quality of the frames after I received them. I will definitely be back for my next set of frames.

I ordered my glasses and asked them to ship it to another city, they happily did. There was a misunderstanding and the glasses were in package limbo for a bit. But the Ollie Quinn staff was kind and easy to work with. They were able to figure out the situation and quickly get the glasses strait to me as soon as they could. They paid all the extra shipping fees. They did this so that the price that I paid would be consistent and I payed nothing more. Incredible store and wonderfully co-operative staff!

I had a wonderful shopping experience at Ollie Quinn in Calgary. I have been really disappointed by the post shopping customer service. I bought two pairs of prescription glasses-vision and sunglasses. I was told I would have them in 7-10 business days. My vision glasses arrived in that time frame. I called on day 10 and was told maybe the next day. I called last Friday and was told by the store clerk he would look into it and get back to me. I missed his call, and he did not even leave me a voicemail, which I find highly unprofessional. I called back to find out that my glasses might be in today ( day 15). When I questioned the timeline, I was curtly told it was only a few more days. I then sent an email to express my displeasure and to look for a way to focus on my happy experience. This email has not been answered. To say the least, I am very frustrated, and all the joy has gone out of my new glasses. Today, i had a wonderful conversation that cl;eared up what was taking so long. There was a willingness to work with me to find a suitable time to pick up my new frames. Thanks for the positive call!

Excellent experience at OQ On 17Ave SW. Terrific service from both Candace and Davin. Gentle Hannah (a lovely Golden Retriever) greeted us on our initial visit. Optometrist Dr. Anita Tsu (?sp) was thorough and professional. Check out the fair pricing on the Ollie Quinn website. I have single vision (low index) and the price for frames and lenses w/ scratch protection and no-glare was $155 - ❤️ my matte Benjamin frames (London Weather). This is the place for you if you want a good selection of up to date frames, enjoy no-pressure assistance in a nice location and do not care to pay for designer branding or weird shiny ‘bling’. We were told to expect up to 2 weeks for our glasses and were delighted when they were ready 2 days later.
