Willis has a very relaxing and pleasing manner completely professional and I trust him with my eyesight more than any other optician I’ve ever had a truly remarkable young man
First class service
It was my first visit after phoning to request an appointment to deal with a suspected eye infection. After being triaged by a very helpful member of staff I was given an appointment later that day. Jack was very professional, carried out a thorough examination and was reassuring. All staff were extremely friendly.

Extremely efficient and effective service all round
I arranged an appointment at short notice the day before I was examined as I had noticed a number of new floaters in my left eye. My optician examined the eye extremely thoroughly and carefully and discovered a minor tear in my retina. I was immediately referred to Gartnavel Hospital for treatment that same afternoon. The tear was dealt with successfully by laser surgery.
A great family run Opticians
I went and got a eye test and needed a reading prescription, the staff here are very helpful and make your visit a pleasant experience, would recommend as it is a family run business and not the hustle and bustle of larger big business opticians.
Professional and knowledgeable
Wilkies have looked after my family for decades. Not only have they always provided a great service, but due to very early diagnosis by them, they saved a family member’s sight.
