The range of frames offered by Wheeldon's Opticians was praised for being modern and reasonably priced. The variety of choices was seen as a positive aspect of the practice.

Some reviewers appreciated the efficient service, with one mentioning that a repair was done while they waited. The extended hours of operation, including Thursdays until 7 PM, were also seen as a convenient aspect of the practice.
Negative Experiences
However, not all experiences were positive. Some reviewers reported issues with orders, including delays and mistakes with prescriptions. One reviewer felt that the service was absolutely rubbish and would not be using the practice again. Another reviewer was unhappy with a repair job, feeling that it was botched and overpriced.
Other Comments
One reviewer made a bizarre and inflammatory comment, calling the practice "lying murderous thieves, " but this review seems to be an outlier and not representative of the majority of opinions.
