Are you looking for high quality eye-wear and superior service at highly competitive prices? Then you have found just the right place. Brian is exceptional at his job. Not only is he give you one on one professional advice but he brings years of experience to a job that he so obviously loves. You might think he isn't warm and fuzzy, but don't judge too quickly for as you get to know him you will experience a gentleman who is passionate about putting your needs first. Brian takes all the time necessary to show you all available options in a neat package to assist you in making the just the right choice. You can walk into many a box store and purchase a run-of-the-mill glasses but you will only know what good glasses are when Brian completes his meticulously professional fitting. I am a reader and a pianist which require progressive lenses. Both activities are far more enjoyable now. I spent years struggling with cheap drug store readers, and when I don them now I can't believe how I managed given how amazing the written page looks to me after Brian's fitting. So as I said, if you are looking for great glasses, excellent service and affordable eye-wear then Brian is your guy.

My experience at RX eyewear and with Brian was exceptional. I recently had some new glasses made with progressive lenses. Never in my life have I had such a thorough consultation regarding frame and lens choices. His consultation was very informed and very professional. By arranging an appointment he was able to concentrate on my needs, which I greatly appreciate. I just picked up my glasses and I could not be happier with the clarity and fit. I believe this to be a result of his careful fitting and recommendations.

Very happy to give my feedback! Brian's business approach is unique. You need to book an appointment to see him so that he can guide his customer with undivided attention. From choosing the right lenses, the frames, to the detailed explanation on the correct way to cleaning the glasses ... I feel like a kid in school learning new things for the first time. And I have been wearing glasses for fifty years :) It makes the experience of choosing the right glasses painless. And Yes, the new glasses are indeed very comfortable and fitting perfectly!

I have bought my 3rd pair of glasses from Brian from RX Eyewear. He is fast, professional, courteous and knowledgeable. I broke my glasses while on holiday, I called Brian he had them repaired and made sure they fit correctly. I like the fact it is by appointment only and I get one on one, uninterrupted service. I am a happy repeat customer and recommend him to all my friends.

Brian fitted prescription glasses on my wife and myself. Now you need to really understand the difference between the service you will receive from Brian vs a big box store or even any other optometrist. If you want a deal on the run-of-the-mill eye wear then Brian can beat any big box store by selling you stock glasses. But if you need superior eye wear then there is nowhere in Victoria that can beat this kind of service. Brian spent 3 hours with me today meticulously measuring and fitting my glasses. He did the same for my wife and a friend. He has been in this game for 25 years and knows precisely what you need even before you do. Brian isn't in this for the money (although I'm sure he makes a good living), he is in it to serve your best needs. He is the first to tell you about on-going promotions even though he could keep quiet and take the profit. Brian worked closely with the eye doctor to fit the perfect glasses on both my wife and myself. Before eve looking at frames Brian carefully explains each state-of-the-art lenses and painstakingly sketches what each one will do for you. Once the lenses are chosen he then directs you to the frames and shows the benefit of each material. Only then does he spend the time to measure distances with the greatest of care and consideration. If you are in line for new glasses I would talk to Brian before going anywhere else. I am actually blown away by my experience today and believe you will be too. No, I am not related to Brian nor have I had any social connections to him or his staff. I am a walk in buyer with many years of previous experiences with optometrists, and this gentleman is one-of-a-kind.
