Great opticians, friendly, approachable and professional team. Very thorough eye tests carried out by Martin alongside Kate the optical assistant. Both Martin and Kate are very friendly and professional, put you at ease explaining everything throughout the eye test. You feel you are getting an excellent service. All the ladies Mandy, Corinne and Kate on the front desk are friendly and polite. Jenn who I see from the dispensing team is lovely, friendly and extremely knowledgeable. She has a knack of knowing what frames would best suit you and is very patient. She is a joy to deal with. Would highly

Recently visited Martin Smith Opticians for my annual sight test, it was my first visit to an independent optician and I was impressed by how knowledgeable and friendly the staff were and how modern the practice is. The tests are very in depth and use the latest technology to give a comprehensive check on the eyes. My specs are fantastic; I use computers every day for work so they tailored the lenses to filter out blue light, which make using screens far more comfortable over long periods. Would recommend to anyone who wants real expertise and a personal service.

I have been visiting Martin Smith ever since the practice set up in Saltergate in 2004 and I wouldn't go anywhere else. Not only is Martin one of the highest qualified and most recognised optometrists in the country, with some of the latest technology designed to detect a wide range of eye conditions early, but the staff at the practice are highly qualified in their own field. I always receive a friendly welcome and never feel rushed whether it is for a routine examination or to order some new glasses. Although I tend to choose a similar style of frame and lenses for my glasses, they offer a great
