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.

Love their selection

I’ve used this company (Edinburgh shop) now several times and the customer service is great. Great choice of frames to select from and at very reasonable prices.

Lovely shop in Cambridge

Lovely shop in Cambridge, with very helpful and attentive staff. The product range is very striking and colourful and there is something there to suit everyone, especially if you want to stand out from the crowd. I was kept informed all along the buying and delivery process and have no qualms about giving Iolla a very well deserved 5 stars.

Hi Susan, thank you for taking the time to leave us a review. We're really pleased to hear that you love your glasses and had a great experience with our service.

As all of our prescription glasses are made to order, they usually take around 6–12 working days to complete, but we always aim to get them to you as quickly as possible.

We look forward to welcoming you back in the future.

First and foremost great glasses

First and foremost great glasses: stylish designs, and really high quality lenses-without question the best I've bought, and a price point that competes with any high Street brand. But what brings me back is the integrity of the company from the way environmental concerns are brought into the manufacturing process, to the way staff are valued and work with customers. (I've had more frank advice and laughs in the Glasgow and Manchester shops than anywhere else I buy stuff. )

Excellent!

Extremely lovely, helpful staff! I wish I got their names. My husband got his glasses from there a few months ago, and I popped in to get some too. We had a consistently great experience both times. :)

Amazing service got the glasses before they were expected and this was also wit a call to double check the prescription.

Staff were very helpful and efficient in the Edinburgh store. Frames are perfect so far! Good to see the new range has more options for smaller fits. Would love to see even more colour options across the range but very pleased with my purchase and experience.
