I wanted to thank you and your team for the exemplary care offered to my daughter at very short notice last Thursday 18/8. You are aware she was complaining of very limited sight in her right eye and this together with ongoing investigations was of obvious concern. Your optician was extremely caring and thorough and his referral to go directly to Moorfields spot on.

Prescription sunglasses ensure optimum visual performance by selectively filtering different wavelengths from dazzling sunlight. All sunglasses provided by Hawkes & Wainer give 100% protection from the sun's harmful UV rays. Sunglass fashions change on a seasonal basis and Hawkes & Wainer always hold the very latest styles.
A thorough eye examination can lead to the early detection of certain eye diseases, such as glaucoma, as well as indicating the presence of different medical conditions affecting other parts of the body, such as diabetes and high blood pressure. Early detection of such conditions enables treatment to be given much more effectively.

I initially went to Vision Express to get new lenses for my glasses. When I got them back, the frames were so wide the glasses would hardly stay on my face. They said there was nothing they could do except heat the middle of them and try and bend them to fit my face. These are quite expensive frames so I didn't want them bent out of shape. I went into this store to see if anything could be done and the man sorted them out perfectly in 5 minutes completely free of charge. I will be going here in future rather than a high street opticians.

I bought my glasses from h&w 34 years ago and I'm still wearing them!!. The lenses haven't yellowed or crazed at all and the frames which were altered to fit my crooked face exactly, have held up so well!!! I wish I was still living in London as I need to update the prescription on one lens but sadly I'm no longer in the UK. I'm glad to see the reviews are still glowing....deservedly so! Thanks h&w for a superior product!

Hawkes & Wainer is a brilliant firm. Extremely professional care and customer service that is so good, it is almost beyond belief. The whole team is superb, but Gary is a fantastic first among exceptional equals. I have been a customer for over 30 years and can recommend H&W to anyone wanting an excellent service.
