They always asking about my eyesight. It has always been the same for many years since I had Type 2 Diabetes in 2008.

Reply from R Woodfall Opticians - East Dulwich
Thank you for your feedback. We completely understand how it might feel repetitive, especially when your prescription has remained stable for many years.
Because of conditions like Type 2 Diabetes, we always take a consistent and thorough approach at each visit. Even when your eyesight feels unchanged, regular checks allow us to monitor for any early signs of changes that may not yet affect your vision, helping to protect your long-term eye health.
We really appreciate your patience and are always here to explain anything in more detail if it helps make your visits more comfortable.

A true business model...
The staff at RW are always polite and very welcoming. The optician shows compassion and empathy, and is ever ready to answer your queries.
I've tried some of the larger wellknown opticians in the past but found them dispassionate at best. Since being with RW i've had no issues or complaints, and will always recomend them to anyone in need.
