EXCELLENTTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. First class service from start to finish. Excellent eye examination by Huw. Never pressurised into buying new glasses but if you do need glasses the ladies at the front of house go above and beyond to show you as many styles as you wish, never rushing you to make up your mind. Just collected new glasses and, as a treat new Maui Jim sunglasses, couldn't be more excited. Highly recommended. I would give 10 stars if I could.Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. I have been a customer at A1 Eyewear for several years and would not dream of letting anybody else look after my eyes. Huw, Rachel and Jo all offer highly professional and excellent customer service. I have recently undergone cataract and laser surgery and Huw offered wonderful advice on my options. Both Rachel and Jo listen carefully to what you want in a pair of glasses and I am always happy with the choices they offer. They offer this in a warm and friendly environment.Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. I recently went to A1 Eyewear for my latest eye test, and new prescription lenses and contact lenses, after recently moving back to the Wrexham area. I've needed glasses for over 30 years, and have always had regular sight tests every couple of years, but I can honestly say this is the most thorough and personal service I've ever experienced from an optician. The whole team come across as really professional and experienced, but also friendly and relaxed which helps put you at ease. For my sight test itself, nothing was rushed and Huw took the time to really understand more about my individual circumstances, my daily lifestyle, work environment, driving, screen usage etc, to see how my vision could be improved in the optimal way for me. The Optomap 3D eye scan was another level of detail to anything I'd had before, and Huw walked me through the scan images to explain the various parts, and gave me confidence that everything was fine and healthy. Then for the sight test itself, we went back and forth through various small tweaks to the lenses, to really fine tune my prescription, which was very much appreciated. After the sight test, Rachel took the time to talk me through the various lens options. I have quite a strong prescription and astigmatism, and basic/traditional lenses would be very thick. However, there are a wide range of thinner options available at different price points, as well as additional coating option (e.g. blue light filter for screens). It was also my first time to order varifocal lenses, and there are different levels of quality available for that. But Rachel helped me to choose the best option overall to meet my needs, to fit my existing frames, as well as arriving at the optimum thinness and lens quality for the price. My new lenses took a few days to be fitted (which is normal), but when I went to collect them, Jo gave me a very good handover to make sure everything was OK, and to introduce me to my new varifocal lenses. For contact lenses, I've used the same brand of monthly disposable lenses for many years. But technology and materials is always changing, and I was offered a free trial set of contact lenses which are expected to be an improvement. So I'm looking forward to trying those. Overall, I couldn't be happier with the service received and I will definitely be back to A1 Eyewear for my next sight test and additional glasses/lenses.Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. I went to A1 as I had a sore eye, I thought I might have something stuck in it. Sure enough Huw had a look and yes there was a foreign body lodged in my eyeball! He numbed it with a liquid and gently removed all of it from my eye. I was so glad he could do it there and then! Very professional staff and a great place, it will be my opticians from now on. A great local business. No more waiting in big queues at the well known place! Thank youTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Went to A1 after unsatisfactory service from other opticians.....so pleased I did! Had the best service which is definitely lacking these days! A thorough eye check, unrushed. Was able to speak about my concerns and needs. The stylist is also a great idea! Lots of styles to chose from with advice on face shape etc. All round excellent opticians and beautiful frames!Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google.

Fantastic service once more from Huw, Rachel and everyone at the A1 team (I visited again in June 2024). Highly recommend this company if you’re seeking an optician in the north east Wales and Cheshire area. Helpful, knowledgeable and a great range of eyewear.
