Review summary

Based on reviews, created with AI

Reviewers overwhelmingly had a great experience with this company. Customers consistently praise the exceptional quality of the products, particularly the glasses and lenses, which are often highlighted for their stylish designs and durability. Many people appreciate the inclusive and transparent pricing, finding the costs very reasonable, especially given the high prescription options and added benefits like lens thinning at no extra charge. The staff are frequently commended for being friendly, helpful, knowledgeable, and providing excellent, non-pressured service. However, some customers experienced minor issues, such as a limited initial range of frames or a wait to speak with staff. A few people also reported needing multiple adjustments for their glasses or experiencing blurred vision with varifocals, though these issues were often resolved by the company.

I have never received my order

I have never received my order! The tracking keeps saying the same, that’s the order is leaving the UK. I placed my order March 21. Today is April 15, almost one month later, still have not received the order or Monday back! Very disappointing experience!

We're so sorry to hear that your lovely glasses aren't with you yet! I can see that we posted them to you in Spain on the 24th of March. Your tracking information indicates that Correos were unable to deliver your package as the shipping address you provided was incorrect or incomplete.

A member of our Customer Support team will reach out to you shortly to see what we can do to resolve this for you

Lovely glasses

Lovely glasses; excellent value. Had to wait a little while before I was served initially but that is ok - it shows they weren't rushing the person in front of me! I haven't used them for lenses (being filled by my usual optician as I have issued) so cannot comment on that part of the service. I don't think they have an inhouse optician.

I have been a fan of Iolla for a few years but ……

I have been a huge fan of Iolla since it opened in Stockbridge but found the staff at Bruntsfield unhelpful when I wanted to place an order I needed glasses urgently so went straight to St James centre and placed the order .

Thoroughly recommend

The staff strike a good balance between being helpful and friendly and giving you space to just have a browse. The glasses are great and for my prescription quite cheap.

Fantastic service from start to finish

Loved the fact that when I entered the store staff approached me to acknowledge I was there then left me to browse, no hassle/sales chat. Amazing selection to choose from and crystal clear pricing system, no hidden extras. Love the virtual try on too. Online ordering was smooth and glasses arrived quickly, perfect fit. Have recommended to others and already considering sunglasses order!

Great products. Outstanding staff.

Iolla is a great business. They have affordable, stylish glasses and sunglasses and a very quick delivery service. What makes them 5 stars however is the friendly, enthused and capable staff. Outstanding.

Such a straightforward process

Such a straightforward process. Visiting Glasgow. Popped in and was given attention straight away to explain how it worked. Given space and time to look around at all the fab choice of glasses. Chose frames and again taken care of so well. Have sunglasses to go with some of the frames. Little fold up ones.
Big thanks to Iolla staff. I love my glasses and I will return
