(Translated) Been going there year after year. Best optometrists in the Niagara region by far. Personalized service with the number one priority being patients well being. We strongly recommend to anyone looking for an eye doctor./My family and I have been going to Iris since they opened. We return there year after year because of the excellent personalized service, the professional attention given to patients and the welcome we receive at each visit. It goes without saying that the service is exceptional in addition to having a wide range of quality glasses and lenses. Not to mention an excellent guarantee on their products.

Nous y retournons année après année à cause de l'excellent service personnalisé, l'attention professionnel accordée aux patients et l'accueil que nous recevons à chaque visite.

Very professional. ..friendly staff. Dr Daryn Angle is an amazing optometrist. ... very patient, proficient, thank you for explaining my eye condition...very helpful. See you in a year. This eye place rocks...Love my new lenses..
My son was a bit apprehensive about his eye exam, but Dr. Langer was so quick and calm and very funny, he immediately put all of us at ease. The whole staff at Iris is always so kind and helpful ???? Thank you!
I went in for a eye exam because i was worried about my sight because i felt like i was having difficulty seeing/focusing my sight. I knew going in there was a good chance that i was over thinking it but i rather be sure about my eye sight and health. Turned out i was over thinking it and my eyes are in excellent condition and not a single person made me feel stupid about it. They reassured me about my eye health. My experience was great, and that the optometric assistant John, handled exam amazingly. I was very comfortable and will definitely be back for my next exam!
Excellent customer service!
Fantastic experience! The tests were completed quickly though thoroughly. My eyes did not get all confused and tired from all the long tests like I had in other places. Ultimately the prescription I got was bang on! It took me a few days to get used to my glasses (I'd never worn any before), but now I really really like them. I can see much more easily and my eyes don't get tired as easily! I have been busy all weekend long lowering my font sizes on my work and personal computers! ????
Very friendly staff, professional and they take the time to answer all your questions. Felt very comfortable with the Covid-19 safety precautions they have in place. Highly recommend!!!
5 stars for Dr. Nanini & AJ - both friendly, competent & efficient.
Wow, this place was so amazing. When I walked in it was so clean and bright. All the glasses were organized neatly on the wall and there was a staff member right there to help me. I was very early for my appointment but luckily they could take me right away. I saw Dr. Kalkat who was very knowledgeable and provided me with all the answers to the questions that I had. They directly billed my insurance plan and I was out the door. Would definitely retuen and recommend.
Amazing Service and very friendly staff especially Jonell. Thank you!
Wonderful and knowledgeable people with all the latest lens technology. Special shout out to Miles, who was able to order in specific frames for me as well as fit prescription lenses into discontinued brands. Fully and patiently taken care of from start to finish, which was great because I was a painfully picky customer!
Always comforting to know that the atmosphere is always good and comforting.
Excellent overall. Wonderful, helpful and patient staff, optometrists answer all of your questions and problem solve with you to solve your visual issues. Quality of care as well as quality of product is all excellent.
Professional service, highly skilled and accommodating.
The staff are fantastic, friendly, and very knowledgeable.
Iris is my go to, so helpful and friendly. I have tried other places but always come back to Iris and not going to leave!!!
From the get-go, the service was exemplary — easy appointment booking process, thorough and detailed eye examination and helpful and courteous advise with picking the new pair of glasses. Special mention to Darren Wilson for his thoughtful assistance and recommendations particularly in customizing the glasses to cater to my needs and expectations. In sum, highly recommended. Would visit again for my future eye-care needs.
Had an awesome experience here. I haven't had my eyes checked since I was like 18 - but even then I know it didn't come close to how technical and professional these guys are. Dr Bugescu was wonderful and so were the rest of the staff.
Most important thing about them, they are so nice, smiley, helpful, and professional. Maryam and Stephanie tried to help me to choose a frame by trying lots of them. Also, they were patient to help and registered me for their IRIS Advantage to have $150.00 discount. At the end, their optometrist, Dr. Kiran Jhutty, finalized my job by her eye exam so nice. highly recommend.
Just bought a new pair of prescription Maui Jim’s from the Langley location. I was really impressed by look of the new store. Ask for Rose if you go and Dr. Jean was really helpful and thorough. A very enjoyable experience.
Highly recommend. I had a great experience in IRIS Caulfield. Maria and Fariba helped me to pick my glasses and sunglasses. I also had a thorough eye exam at this location.
I went to this Iris, which isn't my default, because my partner was a customer and I was not let down! I chose to get the custom Topology frames, and I am very happy with them. They have a pretty good selection for materials/colours/shape designs and they are very patient if you take some time to choose! I have never had any pre-made frames fit my nose, as I have a very low bridge and have always been relegated to nose-pad designs - no longer the case! The staff are very kind and provide wonderful customer service. Highly recommend stopping by as I'm sure they would be happy to answer your questions.
Friendly knowledgeable staff, great selection and we got our glasses quickly. They make glass shopping fun.
(Translated) Dr. Nanini is by far the best eye doctor to whom I have entrusted my eye health, Thank you! (Original) Dr. Nanini est de loin le meilleur professionnel de la vue à qui j'ai pu confier ma santé oculaire, Merci !
Not only have I received the best glasses I’ve ever had, I also received the best service! They were very patient and honest about what frames paired well with my face and what colors as well. I had a certain pair in mind but Charmaine was amazing and helped me pick a pair that was more sophisticated and elegant for interviews, but not so much that it took away from my youthful age. You never feel like you are receiving any less than 100% of their attention and care. Would recommend to everyone to at least browse and see what they have!
First time buying prescription glasses and it was a pretty low/no hassle experience. ???? The staff was all helpful and knowledgeable and was able to make it easy for a first time buyer to understand.
Both times I headed in i was helped by Richard, who took the time to go through a plethora of options and help me find an exciting new look. The selection of frames they carry is immense and at varied price points. Additionally, I ended up getting my glass faster than initial predicted, which was a pleasant surprise.
I had a great experience at this place. Maria was extremely helpful in finding the right set of frames for me and she was very accommodating of my needs and concerns.
So in love with their awesome service and product options!
Friendly and knowledgeable staff and amazing experience start to finish. My entire family comes to Iris at Caulfield and can’t recommend enough. Thanks to their professional advice on getting Relaxsee lenses to be able to read and see distance with out trouble.
Great customer service! Fantastic staff
I was a happy and contented customer until I won a "prize" from Iris at which time, I selected s pair of Ray Ban sunglasses. Since that time, I have been continually bombarded with spam mails promoting Ray Ban sun glasses. If you want your spam folder to be flooded with total junk, wait until "Iris" offers you a freebe... You'll pay for it... Thank goodness my ISP understands that the Ray Ban adverts are totally bogus...
I would recommend Iris whole-heartedly. I needed an eye exam before purchasing glasses, and Dr. Langer was so informative and professional. He answered my questions thoroughly and I didn't feel rushed. The staff was very friendly and knowledgeable, and informed me of a new type of lenses (Home and Office) that I am excited to try. I didn't feel pressured to buy glasses there; they explained what they had available and gave me a price sheet breaking down costs of various combinations. Having left my glasses at home on evacuation because of the fires, they provided me a new pair of replacement ones at 50% off. Thank you, staff of Iris Vernon.
Great Service! Went in to purchase a new pair of glasses and they were extremely helpful when it came to choosing a pair that complimented my face perfectly. They have a great selection of brands and great prices. Would definitely recommend!
Fast and efficient service, was able to get back to work on time
Front staff are nice but a tad overzealous.
I went into IRIS for the first time, and the staff were phenomenal. I was helped by the Optometric Assistant, John and had my eye exam with Dr. Bugescu. They were great with me and took the time to explain the results of the tests they did.
Maria took a lot of time and care to help me choose the right frames for my tiny face! I never felt pressured to make a quick decision. I love my new glasses...the very first pair that I have owned for 15 years. Thank you Iris!
Just ordered contact lenses through #proptometryclinic - they were $2 cheaper than ordering them on sale online! Great service.
Good service and friendly staff ???? Dr. Kyle is very approachable.
The staff here was extremely friendly and helpful, and I have no hesitation recommending them very highly!
I just spent an hour with Rhonda picking out my glasses and it was a very informative, helpful and enjoyable experience. I also, very much, liked Dr. Wyse. He was informative, patient and had a great way about him. All in, I highly recommend Iris in Powell River. Sincerely Kim Wall
Living in a world with a pandemic and so many unknowns, the staff at Iris was so kind and helpful. They are taking all the precautions to keep us safe. My son's glasses broke and they had to order another frame, they called me and let me know the updates regarding the time frame when his frames would be here. And today just over a week he has his new frames. Alysia Rocks????
LOVE THESE FOLKS, LOVE THE LOCATION
I was set up with new contacts thru Dr. Mark Langer at Iris and he was amazing. Explained every process, was patient as I tried trial after trial. I give 5 star to him, Clara and the whole team. A great experience that will keep me returning. Sincerely Wendy Jmaeff
Friendly, personable staff, good selection of products and options
Such an amazing place, with amazing workers.
always a pleasant experience with lots of giggles with the staff and of course very professional treatment at the same time
Nice and kind!
Great experience and care!
Dr Langer has been incredible with my 6 year old son! He has even assisted us with contact lenses for him. Our little guy looks forward to his optometrist appointments.
Great friendly staff, and awesome awareness of Covid-19 health procedures. 5 stars!
The service and knowledge was hands on and was a pleasant experience. They can also help you pick frames most suited for your face shape which is where I needed the most help ! Lol I would recommend this location due to the kind staff.... thank you for your help
This has been over and beyond amazing and I have been taken care of so well. I had an emergency situation with my eye, and they were able to help me right away. The only place that knew right away what to do and how to do it. I would highly recommend this place to anyone as the whole staff is very professional, kind and you will be taken care of in a way that you can trust. Dr. Daryn Angle is absolutely amazing!!
Today, I put on a new pair of glasses, and for the first time in...somewhere along the lines of eight years or more, I stopped seeing double. Dr. Nikolet took the time to properly and exactly find the adjustment needed to correct the diplopia caused by strabismus in my left eye. I have been impressed by Iris in the past, but this time they have gone way beyond the call. You will not regret getting your glasses from these folks. Update: Went to a 3D movie the other day, and I was actually able to watch in 3D!
Doc Julie is the best. Staffs were friendly and accommodating. ????
I was a bit hesitant coming in to the IRIS Eye Centre at first because I thought it would be too expensive. Charmaine and then Mary were incredibly helpful and got me exactly what I needed. I love my new glasses and they fit perfectly. I can see so much better and the transition lenses are amazing. I would recommend anyone to come and see Mary at IRIS. She is very customer oriented and together we found the right frames and more importantly the right lenses. It was more money that some department store optical centre but the service was so much better. Thanks Mary, thanks Charmaine. I’ll see you soon.
Iris Fredericton is absolutely amazing. They go above and beyond in customer service. I truly found their professionalism and willingness to make me feel comfortable refreshing. Highly recommend them and can guarantee I will never go anywhere else!
Love my new Ray-Ban glasses: they fit & feel like I've always worn them! I really like them! I want to thank Elizabeth, Marisa & staff for there perseverance in getting me the right glasses and for their exceptional customer-centered and professional service. Service en français disponible! Merci beaucoup!
I called to get a last minute appointment because I thought I had something in my eye. The office was very accommodating and fit me in that afternoon. Dr. Nanini was very thorough in his examination. It was a great experience.
Everyone was professional, kind and patient. They listened to my concerns and found solution that is working great! Thanks!
Best doctor office visit in my life. Great facilities, super patient staff, and Dr Angle went above and beyond with his scientific explanations of what was going on with my eyes and general health.
Started having trouble with my sight (headaches, tired eyes) and scheduled an appointment. Went in and had an appointment with Brad who did a thorough job and spent extra time explaining what I was experiencing (astigmatism). I hadn't had much experience at an Optometrist so it was nice he took the extra time to help me understand. Since obtaining a prescription and getting glasses - no more headaches/tired eyes and everything is clear and a game changer. Staff was friendly, quick to get in to be seen and appointments were on time. A++
Excellent business, excellent service, excellent people. I suggest trying them out.
We drove from London to Kitchener because the Iris store closed in London and we were a little perturbed that we had to drive an hour in order to fulfill the warranty on my husbands glasses. We had the best service ever! Robyn was informed that we had called prior to our coming so she spoke to the manager, Darren, who filled her in what we needed. When we arrived in Kitchener, Robyn was very helpful and prepared to help us. Darren was great as the manager because he met our needs and accommodated us so that we wouldn't have to make too many trips back into Kitchener. We drove back a week later and both Robyn and Darren were working and it was such a pleasure to actually meet Darren and see Robyn again. The customer service was top notch! We felt very welcomed and the employees were very professional and empathetic to our long drive to Kitchener. It was great knowing they listened to our needs and met every single one of them. Thank you so much again Darren and Robyn for excellent customer service!! I would shop at Iris any day of the week!!!
Visited twice, once they never even opened, what is it with store hours in Langley? Second visit got terrible customer service, actually left angry. Lady would not let anyone in the store even though their own sign says max customers 10. Lost my business because she wouldn't let me in to even look at frames. I went to Pearl Vision in Willowbrook, go there for MUCH better customer service and better prices too. Don't waste your time here.
Excellent service they like to get to know their customers I highly recommend them
I had a wonderful experience as a first time customer to IRIS. Dr Monica is very knowledgeable and answered all my questions. Patricia is so so nice and helpful. She provided me with different options while I was picking the frame, and is absolutely patient with me till I find the frame I want :)
Such an amazing place, with amazing workers.
I feel cheated. My initial visits were due to a possible eye infection\problem after getting sand in my eye. This led to months of unanswered results - which I understand my case was difficult to solve. However, each visit with the same complaints of burning eyes, one eye feeling swollen, can't function day to day properly, I was repeatedly given a new prescription for new glasses and pushed to get new contacts and glasses - with my eyes still causing discomfort. After 3 mo of eye problems I gave in and purchased new glasses with a new prescription because I was told it could be eye strain. Chronic headaches set in, inability to work or even drive. I was referred to a clinic elsewhere where I was diagnosed with severe dry eye (meibography confirmed barely any glands left) and seborrhea blepharitis. Turns out my prescription was done while my eyes were inflamed and very dry - which is ridiculous because it's near impossible to keep your eyes open when your eyes hurt and no lubrication - makes things blurry. My new Dr and I got me on a plan that got me back on track and turns out my prescription did not change. I asked IRIS to replace the faulty lenses and they refused, but did offer me a discount. I LOVE my glasses, I paid $480 for them and CANNOT wear them because the Dr's in this office gave me a prescription that I literally CANNOT SEE WITH. I thought it only fair that they switch my lenses back to my old prescription, I was not asking for a refund as I love my glasses purchased. I'm $480 out of pocket, not to mention the HUNDREDS of dollars spent on the exam, products they sell and prescription medications. So, I would not recommend this branch unfortunately.
Ii had been to several eyeglass stores trying to get help as this was my first pair of glasses. I was sold from the customer service alone. Lee was very patient and very informative. She helped me make the best decision based on my needs. Exceptional customer service.
Thank you Iris for taking the time and really helping me find a frame that fits my face and I love. Loved working with your staff for the fitting and the front desk is always there to help when I need to have a small adjustment done. Thank you
I came in for an adjustment on my glasses (which fit great now!) The staff was very kind and friendly. I was very impressed with the selection of frames that they offer and the cleanliness of the display room. Great spot!!!
Friendly staff, very helpful and informative on the latest technologies. Dr.Lawson did an excellent job at assessing and resolving my vision problem. Thank you!
highly recommended! good customer service. so excited for my new glasses. thanks jonell. really appreciate all the help.????
The staff is very friendly.And I really liked the doctor.Thank you for not making me feel bad having the insurance I did.I was so worried about that.
...great people...great service...highly recommended and this is the office to call next time you are in the market for quality eye care...you will not be disappointed !
Customer Care is important to this business. Each time I have been inside the premisses I am treated as though they truly want me to be pleased with the outcome of my visit.
Professional, , knowledgeable, friendly and courteous service at every step of the process.
I recently had an eye exam at iris with Guillaume. He was extremely professional and communicated clearly regarding my prescription. The store looks very new with an open concept in the retail portion. I would highly recommend. I also now wear trueblue glasses when I’m on the computer. My eyes feel more relaxed at the end of a workday and they look great.
Beautiful store! Very bright and clean. The staff is highly knowledgeable and go out of their way to put their customers first!
The staff at IRIS are so kind and helpful! They have top of the line equipment, the doc is very knowledgeable, and all of the staff are friendly and professional. I would highly recommend this place to anyone looking for highly professional atmosphere with fast and friendly service. I won’t go anywhere else and am super grateful I decided to switch optometrists!
Had a great experience here, felt very welcomed and well taken care of. Miles was very kind, helpful and a joy to work with. Dr. Trottier was also really great. Was very patient, knowledgeable and thorough. There was great care taken to adhere to Covid policies. Would definitely recommend this office to a friend ????
I had an excellent experience here! They were super-friendly, relaxed, great with my kids (ages range from 3-10 years old), and they were exceptionally patient with me. All told I think I was in there eight times and they seemed happy to see me every time. The warranty on the glasses here is amazing! I didn’t take enough time to pick my first pair of glasses and very much disliked them, including how unclear they seemed. After almost two weeks they double-checked my vision test free of charge and let me pick a new pair of frames, also free of charge! There ended up being nothing wrong with my initial vision test, it had to do with the frames I picked. I love my newest pair of glasses and they’re beautifully clear. We will go here every time.
Super prompt service! I emailed them during COVID, asking for my prescription so I could order glasses online. They emailed me back in minutes! Great customer service.
Fantastic service.
Great experience and would recommend.
I highly recommend Iris Nanaimo for professional, personal service. I was helped by Kimberly Jackson. She was incredibly knowledgeable about all aspects of eye health and made my children feel comfortable during their exams. She also took the time to help me find the perfect frames for my face, style, and needs. I consider myself a loyal customer because of the level of care I received there.
Super happy with my experience! Took my daughter in (11 yrs old) for her first exam. Dr Birring was incredibly kind, patience and fun to deal with. He made her experience a great one! Charmaine also assisted us in completing our purchase and finding the right lenses and frames and I loved the experience so much I got a pair for myself too! Thank you for the great service!
Appreciate the thorough exams, the kind staff and not being pressured into buying frames. I had such a great experience that I’ve now moved my whole family to Iris. The team told me about protecting my eyes from my computer screen, and taught me about having more than one prescription on one lens... first pair of glasses and I love them.
Great staff, great selection on glasses frames and sunglasses.
Great service and eyewear selection!
Great experience at North Van Iris! They offer high quality products and professional services. They helped me with eye exams and also to find the perfect frame to fit my face and my style. Thank you Gissou and Sepideh for your outstanding customer service!
Fantastic customer service, friendly, fast service. Very helpful with ordering in the sunglasses I wanted, sourcing my prescription from the mainland and even went above and beyond with refitting my current, older glasses. Very impressed and will absolutely be back
Excellent customer service and focus on exactly what you need! They do a great job explaining your prescription and what is best for your lifestyle. Very safe procedures during Covid-19
Amazing, knowledgeable staff! Extremely helpful and able to answer all questions and the store is a fun environment with a wide selection of glasses. They have definitely been one of the best optometry places I've been to as a young adult!
My experience as a customer here were exceptional. I have been to a handful of Iris locations, and this by far is my favourite place. Associate Noel helped me choose glasses, and we were able to narrow it down from fifteen glasses to two pairs. Noel gave me his honest opinion, and feedback which I appreciated it greatly. Once I chose the the style I liked out of the two; he was there during the ordering process, called me when they were in, adjusted my new glasses, and previous ones as well. Every-time I came in, Noel washed my glasses as well. Noel followed up on how I was doing with my glasses after two weeks of owning my new pair of glasses. Of all the glasses I owned in life, this is my favourite. Jessica, Elisha, and Noel all helped me when I had questions or and concerns, they all serviced my glasses, and tended to all my needs and request. All the Associates were kind, gentle, friendly, patient, responsive, and respectful towards me who is a visible minority with a disability. Dr. Ryan Trottier, the optometrist at this location was very diligent with his work during the whole eye exam. He had my best interest in mind. I like that Dr. Ryan Trottier, is soft spoken, caring, gentle, friendly, and very respectful. Lastly he was able to let me know what is going to happen every step of the way. This is my first public review, and in itself it says a lot. I highly recommend anyone who is looking to purchase a new pair of glasses, and or need a eye exam to go here. This is the place, you will not regret it!
I walked in and was greeted and helped promptly with amazing customer service skill by AJ Fraser. I strongly recommend anyone looking for reputable optometrist going above and beyond to take their business to Iris, especially this one! Thank you to the whole team
Karima & Dr Birring were great! Very knowledgeable, knew exactly what I was looking for, and made the overall experience perfect! Definitely solidified a return customer.
I saw Dr.Lawson and he was very thorough with my eye exam. Great bedside manner and seems to know what he is talking about. I highly recommend this clinic for any eye issues you might have.
Both Doctors Nanini and Pelletier are great. I like the care provided there, as well as how clean and updated the tech used is. Everything is well broken down in layman's terms, and it is always a good experience.
Duane at Iris was unbelievable...so helpful and friendly and knew everyone by name that walked in. Thank you for a very positive first experience getting prescription Sunglasses Duane. You and the team at Iris in West Van are outstanding!! Im telling all my friends to go to you...
Visited this place after a long time wanting to get my eyes checked; I'm very happy I chose this place. Very flexible, professional and Dr. Jean on site, very knowledgeable, very thorough and super nice! Highly recommend this place!!
I was impressed with the service, I received with Iris. This was my first visit, and Gissou took time to assist me with my glasses, offering my great service. The covid precautions in place, every thing sterilised before and after use, gave me additional relief. I will be moving my business to Iris for my family. Thank you Gissou for your patience and professionalism.
Miles(hope I spelt that right) was amazing. I had so much fun picking out glasses. I told Miles to pick what ever might suit me and I was given the most honest reactions to what I tried on. And the Dr was so nice. Showed my all the pictures of my eyes and explained everything to me. THANK YOU!!
Best store with the best staff! Super helpful and knowledgeable
Great service! Everybody were welcoming and take there time to serve me. ????????
I actually had fun at this appointment! I learned a lot, everyone was very thorough, and the best part was picking out new glasses for the very first time...????
Ramona is amazing and every pair out would wave looked on me. Apparently I love tortoise shell thanks to her! She is the best!!!
Had a great experience with staff at this location. They were kind, attentive and cordial.
Excellent experience every time! The team really care about what they do and it shows. Thank you for always being awesome!
It was not my best day when my almost brand new glasses from IRIS totally were totally ruined in an unfortunate event (my fault). I don't live in Red Deer but my concerns were eased when I called JH on the phone. He assured me IRIS would honor their 'no matter what' guarantee -- and they have. I am so pleased at the level of service this outlet has provided me in house and through the mail. I would come back here for another pair of glasses. I'm a picky customer so that says something!
Amazing service. Glasses came sooner than expected
Always made to feel welcomed by both staff and Dr. Appreciate the fact that time is taken to explain your exam results as well as in the preventative health care of your eyes. Thank you
Amazing service, kind staff and reasonable prices. Karen is incredibly professional and thorough with her exams, always feel well taken care of. Thank you!
Iris is the best! The staff are lovely especially Brianna, she goes above and beyond! Dr. Ross really cares about his patients.
What a great people and excellent service ! Highly recommended. Thank you . :)
Optometrists are extremely professional only recommend what's best for your vision and leave you smiling on the way out. Prices are great, selection is impeccable and store is always clean. Everyone in the office is friendly and personable.
Great service and excellent quality. I tried different other places but at the end I realized that the money I spent here were worth it.
I had a wonderful experience picking out a new pair of glasses at IRIS. John was incredibly helpful in finding a pair that worked for me, and I couldn't be happier.
Dr. Kyle was very informative and everyone at the store was awesome! Val is very knowledgeable!
I have been a patient of Dr. Blanchard for 30 years. I have always had great service and my experience today picking out and buying my new glasses was exceptional. I have always bought my frames and contacts from them as well. They have great selection, top brands and competitive pricing, and I like being able to go in for an adjustment, and get that personalized service. Today when I went in to pick up frames for my old glasses that had broke but were covered under warranty (which was amazing) I wanted to "look" at new frames, and have been avoiding the change over from single vision to progressive lenses. After getting guided by Lina I bought a new pair of frames and lenses, and am positive I made the right choice, after being presented with all the available options. She really listened to me and showed me the options that best suited me and my current needs. She took special note of what I would be using the glasses for with regard to both the look and functionality I wanted. I felt like she took personal pride and ownership in me and wanted me to be thrilled with my glasses and that they would suit my needs perfectly. By asking clarifying questions and not making assumptions she exceeded my expectations and I am happy to recommend her to anyone shopping for glasses/frames. She was also very knowledgable about progressive lenses, various lens options, matching the right frame to the face andwhat's in style.
Here is why no one wants to shop downtown: I checked google and their website, no mention of appointment only, so off I went...you get there, pay for parking, get to Iris and the sign at the door says no walk in - you read the sign as homeless people harass you. There is only the staff inside playing on her phone. I call, mention that I'm only shopping (no eye exam) and I still cannot go in. 10 minutes later, there is still no clients inside the store. I could by then have at least looked to see if there were any styles that interested me and then I could book an appointment to try some glasses on... I walked at Costco and LensCrafters and did not have this issue.
Friendly service and expert care. Always a great combination especially with health care.
Dr Nanini was great and very helfpul.
Best staff out there. Very knowledgeable and helpful. I wouldn’t shop anywhere else.
Dr. Catchuk was very helpful and is considerate of patient care. Staff is very patient in helping clients choose the best lenses. I would highly recommend this clinic.
This was my first visit to see an optician. I chose Iris based on their reviews and I was happy with my choice. The receptionists and optician were very friendly and courteous. Mitchell was great in helping me choose the frames that were best for me and everything was explained well. Overall, it was a very good first experience and I would recommend Iris to anyone.
Very expensive but the staff is friendly and helpful. Lots of selections
I took my 4 year old son. They were amazing with him and went above and beyond to help him. They discovered he did need glasses and again went above and beyond to find him the proper most affordable frames to suit his needs. Friendly staff, clean office, helpful and very patient with children. We will be back for sure!
Dr. Di Nardo was very professional and knowledgeable. I came in quite concerned, and was impressed with how thoroughly he assessed my eyes to rule out all possible problems.
Just had my first visit to see Doctor Ross, whom I highly recommend! We just moved to Quesnel and thought I'd give them a try after having a great optometrist in Vancouver. Well the staff were professional and supportive and above all Dr Ross is one of the great ones in my opinion. He was very thorough and spent good time with me to verify other potential issues. Great experience.
I was in Vernon visiting my in-laws for a few weeks and needed an eye exam. I stopped into Iris and had the pleasure of having an eye exam with Dr. Langer. He helped to explain things regarding the health of my eyes so clearly. He is extremely friendly and knowledgeable. I had been having frequent headaches and Dr. Langer discovered with one test, that the strength of my contact lenses were over prescribed by my old optometrist. He adjusted my prescription and the headaches have gone away. Truly a game changer! Going forward I will be making my annual visit to the optometrist when I am in Vernon.
Wonderful staff. Dr. Nanini is amazing with kids.
I was a patient of Dr. Soicher and mainly Dr. Blanchard's for years so when I found out Marisa retired, I was a bit hesitant to come back but Dr. Lawson was amazing to work with. He was extremely thorough with his exam and explained everything every step of the way. When it was time to pick out my new glasses, the women in the office were extremely helpful and supportive. They all took time out of their day to help me narrow down the perfect pair and then helped me get the best deal possible which was so appreciated. I have already recommended my coworkers to come here. They all are thoughtful, thorough, sweet and professional. Highly recommend Iris!
No one compares to Iris when it comes to your eyecare. Professional service, support and they will go out of their way to make sure you're satisfied. I may have recently had eye surgery, but I'll always shop for sunglasses at Iris. If you're in Nanaimo, go see Kimberly :)
First time at Iris for me. Can only say positive things about the wonderful team providing excellent service there. Dr. Mark Langer was very knowledgeable in informing me about the health of my eyesight, and was easy to understand. I highly recommend their services to anyone looking for a top notch Optometrist. I know where i will be getting my glasses from!
Love my Maui Jim sunglasses.they are awesome. The lady helping me, Angela was super patient, friendly and knowledgeable. She showed me the different types of lenses and explained the benefits of polarized lenses. Thank you Angela for making this shopping experience wonderful. I will be back for any future eye care needs.
Very friendly, professional service
I had such a wonderful experience at Iris North Vancouver. I used to go to Iris in Calgary, so I was glad to recognize a name I trust when I was searching for where to get my eye exam. From the moment I walked in the door, Katie was so warm and kind welcoming me, she made the initial tests, and looking at frames so fun and enjoyable. She took her time to help me find 2 frames that looked really good on me. She was very patient as I disliked soo manny. Dr Mann was wonderful as well, She took her time to answer all of my questions, and do a very through eye exam. I was comfortable the entire time, and would highly recommend trusting her and her team with your eyes.
Amazing quality of optometry! Paul offered to adjust my glasses bought from another Iris location and everything has changed. My glasses now stay on my face comfortably even when I'm active! In comparison, before they slide down my nose even when at my desk. Highly recommend!
The price for the glass is ridiculous high. If you looking for a glass, go somewhere else. They even charge $15 for adjust glass which is usually free in all other stores.
I appreciate all of the safety measures they had in place at my visit. Store was clean and didn’t feel like we were over crowded. Thank you for looking out for me.
Always enjoy going here for optical needs, staff is consistently well informed and kind!
The service at this IRIS location was exceptional. They really care about the customer, help you make the right choices and do follow up calls to ensure you are still happy.
I have been dealing with Iris for many years and they consistently have excellent customer service and products.
I have been a customer of Mel and Marissa for many years and have never had a bad experience, I always feel I have been thoroughly examined and any questions or concerns have been discussed and addressed immediately. Today I purchased the first glasses that I have needed in years. All options were thoroughly explained and prices given for each. Again, the care was exceptional and made my purchase easy.
professional, personable and very knowledgeable
I have been dealing with Iris700 for more than a decade and find ALL the staff incredibly knowledgeable, friendly and fast. I recently went in to buy new prescription reading glasses and it took just minutes. I told them what I wanted, and they instantly produced what I had in mind. Delivered within a week and they are perfect. Can't recommend them highly enough.
Fantastic experience. I just emailed for an appointment got it quickly for the next day. I had a thorough eye exam and then got my prescription lenses with all detailed and meticulous measurements. I brought my old frame for the new lenses but the frame accidentally got broken in the store. Darren told me no worries choose any frame you like from the store to replace it, free of charge! He is a true gentleman. I am very much satisfied with the service and will recommend it to every friend I see.
I have been a patient of Dr. Nanini for many years and look forward to a pleasant, professional visit each time!
Dr Nanini and team are great! Friendly, knowledgeable, efficient. They deliver fabulous customer service and I feel that I am a valued customer. I am so glad I chose the IRIS Welland team to be my eye care specialists.
My family and I had an eye exam at Iris, Caulfield. Dr. Jhutty was knowledgeable and patient with my questions. Great customer service and well experienced staff. Highly recommended!
Had my eye exam done today at Iris in Quesnel. They have such a beautiful location. Everyone was super friendly and very knowledgable. They also have a huge selection of eyewear! Highly recommand them!
excellent service and amazing staff
Incredible service!! I wanted a very specific pair of frames I'd seen on the website, and they were in a store on the mainland. This group ordered them in for a try on, fitted them for my prescription, and wow: this is the first time I've seen so clearly in years! They took their time for the fitting appointment and the try-on appointment to make sure everything was perfect. Every single aspect of doing business with these guys was stress-free, fun, and just a great experience. I highly recommend them to anyone - especially if you have a tricky prescription. They got it absolutely right and for a very, very reasonable price. Thanks to Noel and the gang - I won't be back for a couple years, but I will definitely be back. :-)
I was fitted for contacts and glasses here. The staff was so nice, and knowledgeable. I have had some issues with contacts before. Charmaine was able to explain to me why and sourced me a pair that fit better. I'm thankful for the handwork and professionalism shown here.
Twice in April 2020 I needed the services of Huronia Optical and on both occasions I was served extremely well under the present circumstances. Lisa Beaudoin gave a time to show up for my new lenses & other repairs. I’ve been a long time customer & will be one for many more years. Thank you
Great people, great service!
Quick visit, everyone was friendly, professional, and helpful.
Unprofessional aspects present among staff members and business practices, including, and perhaps as exemplified by, inaccurate hours of operation on Google. I have bought multiple pairs of glasses here in the past fifteen years, but definately have had very mixed experiences, good, but also most recently, bad ones. I have had it more than once that lenses were not made correctly and needed to be remade. For future purchases, I will likely go somewhere else, unfortunately.
Excellent service! The store's staff as well as Dr. Balberan were very friendly and helpful. I liked the selection of frames they had. Thank you for your help!
Amazing service. My glasses were bought at another iris and I had sat on and deformed them. Not only did the individual do a great job of bending them and helping me, they were kind and friendly.
Staff is really friendly and attentive. Always have a good experience when I go for an eye exam and Dr. Nanini is super nice and explains everything clearly and answers any question I may have. Would definetly recommend him.
Lisa is awesome. So knowledgeable.

We just returned from picking out glasses at Iris's downtown Nanaimo location! We originally visited their Woodgrove Mall store but once it closed, despite living in the North End, we have travelled to the South End and continuing to shop there! My daughter has needed a new pair of glasses every couple years so we've purchased a fair few, and every single time, we have had the best experience. The staff are so friendly and helpful, the store has always been clean and organized, and we've never ever been rushed. In fact, the time before today, we probably spent at least an hour or 2 trying on numerous frames and everyone was great the entire time. We love Iris, and how well we are treated there... Have no interest in going elsewhere! Iris really is the best :)
Absolutely 5-star service. Although you may not find the thrifty deals you are looking for in terms of contacts or lense sales, the service staff at this Iris are exemplary and know how to take care of their clientele. Duane is the MAN!
Charmaine has got great energy and was awesome about ordering me a couple of trial contacts to see what my eyes were most comfortable with.
Dr Christian explains diagnosis in a clear and honest manner. Very reassuring when expressing my concerns.
Afsoon helped me pick out a stylish frame and she was very knowledgeable about the lenses!
I have been going to see Duane for years. Excellent experience working with Duane. He is always very professional and communication skills are fantastic. Offers great advice in selecting new frames.
great service,staff is super friendly.
Great location with lots of parking. As soon I walked threw the door I was greeted by a friendly staff. I received some good advice on what frames, lens and coatings would be of the most benefit to me. Overall it was a pleasant experience.
The friendly team squeezed me in on Saturday as i am going away soon. They were super helpful, knowledgeable and authentic in terms of their service. In about an hour i was there i felt that a friendship relationship has been flamed up and their authenticity made me trust them thoroughly and i am very very blessed to have gone there and done business with them. I will go back to get glasses for my daughter and my husband after i come back. Thank you.
I've been coming to Iris for over 20+ years now. My client number is 9 so that says a lot... I have gone through so many styles of frames over the years and recently progressed to bifocals. It's been a hard transition but the staff are always so helpful and understanding. My ears are crooked too so that never helps! I've gotten all my contacts through them too until sadly I could no longer wear them due to changes in my eyes. My whole family comes here and I wouldn't go anywhere else. They are a great team and I am grateful for their care!
Friendly Environment and clean washroom.
Here’s the thing. Iris Waterloo has an excellent selection of glasses. However, over the years there has been such a turnover of staff, we never know if we are going to get superb service at mediocre. Yesterday, we had superb service with Johnathon Salazar like we Have in the past. However, over the past year we had a concern with a pair of glasses that cost over $1,000 and the paint on the frames was wearing almost immediately. We were told there was nothing to be done. Both of us needed glasses and thought we would give Iris another shot, but we were prepared to walk out if the service sucked or if the store would not stand behind their products. Johnathon addressed the previous concern and that motivated me to upgrade my first pair of progressive lenses to platinum. Iris is an excellent retail space, but they need to clone Johnathon or ensure that staff have a consistent training program. These glasses are not budget.
Always a wonderful experience with the staff and management of Iris. Karen always does an excellent job of looking after my eye health and Tim helped me pick a great frame for my look. The rest of the staff is friendly and helpful! Highly recommended.
Wonderful experience! I called short notice for an exam, due to my busy work schedule, and they got me in the exact day I needed!! Very friendly, professional staff. Dr. Kassian was very thorough and he took his time to explain everything to me. Also a great selection of eyewear! Can't wait to get my new glasses!! I would highly recommend Dr. Kassian and his knowledgable team.
I was impressed by the professionalism of your staff. My exam seemed more thorough than I’ve had previously and my questions were fully answered. I want my children to do their next appointments with your clinic. I was most pleased with the information regarding my pterygium. I have always known of its existence but I have never been told what to do about it. I decided to spend the additional money on the prescription sunglasses because of my confidence and satisfaction with the exam. I’ve never been told I should have yearly exams and a portion could be covered under OHIP because of the pterygium. Previously I had been going & paying for yearly examinations to satisfy my own concerns.
I love how fast, friendly and professional Dr. Nanini and the entire staff is.
Worst experience EVER! Do not use them. They (staff) are as cold and sterile as a block of ice. I waited 10 years to get my eyes examined and glasses ordered. I had the money to pay for the exam, but they refused to serve me with l owing my inaurance(which doesn't cover the exam) and I kept telling him and he wouldn't listen. He played dumb and he lost my business. Do NOT use them. Go to a reputable vendor.
My first time to see Dr Nanini and I'm very impressed of the professional service I received. I would highly recommend this eye care center. Staff are very friendly, efficient and professional as well.
I had lost a component of my Mikli eyeglasses which were purchased in Italy. Once I got the remplacements, Duane assembled everything masterfully and was most gracious and did not charge me for his service! How rare is that. Highly recommended and such a pleasure to know.
I can't believe the high level of service at this place! Honestly one of the best shopping experiences I've had, and shopping for glasses is normally the pits. Duane was super friendly, helpful and knowledgable, listened to what I was looking for and offered me a great selection of cool frames. Anytime anyone walked in he greeted them by name and made them feel right at home while they waited, never rushing me for a minute. He took the time to explain the different frames and prices - when I mentioned the total cost of the glasses I wanted was a bit over my budget, he "suddenly remembered" there was a sale on those frames and knocked half price off for me. I mean come on! When I went to pick up my frames he took the time to make adjustments so they fit me just right; I've never had a pair that fit so well. I also overheard Duane helping the woman before me... I'm not exactly sure what he did for her but she went to pay him and he said there was no charge, which she was pretty blown away by. This is the only place I'll go to from now on, and will highly recommend to anyone looking for new glasses!
As usual, this is the best optical store in the area. Staff are very knowledgable and helpful, service is great. Shannon went the extra mile to make sure i left with the right pair of glasses. THX
I purchased sunglasses from Iris Visual in Fredericton and was extremely pleased with my experience. The staff is extremely knowledgable and really took the time to understand my needs and wants and guided me in the right direction. They have certainly gained a repeat customer from me and I will definitely refer them my family and friends. Thank you so much!
Had an eye examination along with my husband and appreciated how i was treated. The staff thoroughly help me out and Dr.Bugescu was fantastic! Very informative and really madd sure i understood everything! Thank you IRIS!
Every visit to IRIS is always a great experience. From the moment you are greeted by great staff at the reception desk to your exclamation by the Dr. There is no waiting, you can expect your appointment time is always on schedule, which is very important to me. My questions were answered professionally which was very reassuring to me. I highly recommended IRIS on Seaway Dr . Welland Dave
Dr. Guillaume Jean & his team provided an exemplary level of professionalism & customer service. Throughout my eye exam, Dr. Jean took the time to explain in detail exactly what was happening & what he was looking for. We reviewed my results together in detail where all my questions were answered and options were provided. I would highly recommend Dr. Jean & his team of eye care professionals! Graham White
The only store that doesn't care about money and only cares about costumer experience. It was a pleasure talking with their manager Charmaine.
Service was awesome!! I managed to get a same day appointment with Dr. Pankhurst, she was very helpful and I really enjoyed learning more about my eyes.
Stopped in for a repair issue (for a product I bought in Kelowna) Clara was very professional and polite. Fixed the problem in a few minutes. I'll definitely be back!
I totally recommend the Iris - Nanaimo downtown location. The online eye exam appointment booking form was easy to navigate and my eye exam was very thorough! Afterwards, I wanted to try on a lot of different frame styles and the lovely staff that helped me was very patient and recommended all sort that suited my preferences. We narrowed it down to two styles but I wanted to see a specific colour combo on one - which was not a problem at all! They ordered it in and I was able to try them on as well during another appointment while another wonderful staff member was patient with me as I went back-and-forth with my decision. I'm very excited to get my new glasses soon and will definitely be back to buy more frames in the future.
My daughter and I had our eye exams and a new pair of glasses. Rose was lovely and helped us to find the best fit. They have a assortment. Prices are not so friendly but they work with really good brands.
Huge thank you to Dr Lawson and the staff! I came in after an accident that left my glasses shattered. I was in desperate need of new ones. You guys helped me so much (was able to get them the same day!) - and I am forever grateful!
Always great service - even for emergencies.
Have found the team here to be helpful and accommodating. Service is always professional and they are great with contact lens trials and frame fitting. Would like to see a larger selection of frames.
Very nice people, fixed my glasses purchased elsewhere right away and free.
Dr Nanini and his staff are most importantly friendly and courteous. Their professionalism, attention to detail and technology are second to none. Dr Nanini takes the time to sit with you after your exam and explain results in a detailed and understandable manner. You leave informed and with a solution in hand. Thank you for your kindness.
We had a great experience here. Staff was friendly and knowledgeable . My daughter dropped and broke her glasses 2 weeks after getting them and they replaced them at no cost. Very impressive service and policy for young kids.
Staff are all wonderful, very helpful. Appt took 2 hours though, which i was not expecting. Also their prices are high, so if you dont have glass coverage be prepared. I was a little bit taken aback by the lenses they recommended for my husband being $800 with frames. Not something we can afford. But the doctors were good and they have a nice selection.
Arrived just before closing with an extremely bent pair of glasses and these ladies were super!! They were so friendly and fit me in to get them fixed! Will definitely be going back to them for my next set.
Fantastic doctors and staff! Very thorough and attentive.
This is where we feel we are treated with the most honest, respect and integrity. We highly recommend this office.
Super helpful getting set up with funky cool colored contact lenses!!! I don't even have a prescription. Just got an eye exam to get set up with colored contacts and got great advice and service and even several samples to try so I didn't waste a bunch of money on colors and styles that I didn't end up liking. I would have bought all the wrong colors for me online as what I thought would be my favorites weren't at all. I'm sure I saved so much money and time and am so happy I went to IRIS first! So psyched with the colors I got!
Fantastic experience! I had made an appointment on a previous day, but due to some computer issues the appointment didn’t take. The employees went out of their way to schedule me in, helped me pick out some frames, and even helped me find some stylish clip-ons! Can’t say enough about the kind staff, and will 100% be returning for my next pair
Great team. Fantastic service in every aspect.
Had a wonderful experience at this IRIS location! Detailed review to follow: I previously went to see Dr. Netty Sutjaho in Mayfair Mall. The location closed in the mall, and she moved to the downtown location. I was given cards in the mail notifying me of this and some coupons to use. I decided to book an eye exam, since I haven’t done one for about 2 years. The staff at this location are extremely helpful and friendly. Plus, they like to get to know you as well! It was a very personalized experience. I decided it was time to get prescription sunglasses. Nicole showed me a few styles, and we ended up picking the first choice that she recommended! She has a good eye for knowing what may suit your face shape, style, etc. Nicole did the best she could to get me the best deal, I was so happy! It was a fun experience shopping with her. When I got the prescription sunglasses, I noticed there was a blemish in the corner of the lense when I would put it on and looked in the mirror. It was only noticeable to my eye, the lenses were polarized. I wore it for a few days as I wasn’t sure if I should bother getting it fixed if it wasn’t visible to anyone else but myself. Sure enough, I went for a follow up eye appointment (dilation, contact lense fitting). First thing that Dr. Netty and Nicole did, was they took my prescription sunglasses and checked it for the blemish. They put the sunglasses in every angle to try to view what I was talking about. They ended up putting the sunglasses on the side up against the monitor and it was visible! They sent it back to Nikon for a replacement. They do everything to make their customers happy and they have a great warranty on their products. After this, I wanted to upgrade my eyeglasses to another pair as I was constantly viewing screens and the blue light filter would be beneficial for me. I work in an office and also on devices a lot (phone, tv, laptop for studying, etc). I got a call from IRIS saying my sunglasses were ready. When I got in, Nicole surprised me and said both my sunglasses and eyeglasses were ready. I brought my sister with me, and Nicole worked her magic by adjusting my sisters sunglasses as they were falling down her face. They fit much better now! Overall, I would highly recommend this place! The entire staff is amazing and personable. They answered all questions that I had throughly. For the previous reviewers that had poor experiences, I’d suggest that you make it the experience you want it to be. If you’re not sure of something, ask! They are happy to explain things to you, and give you no pressure to buy anything. I couldn’t say enough good things. Go check them out!
My daughter suggested me going to this place and I’m so happy that I did it! An eye exam by Dr.Judith Balberan and the other steps by super friendly guy Duane. They did a great job! fully checkup, eye exam and lenses prescription. When I got my lenses I went there again and asked them to fix my glasses so Dr. Judith tested my eyes again and they change my lenses for the second time with a very good attitude. They are a very professional and positive team. I highly recommend Iris in West Vancouver!
I was greeted by friendly staff and the environment was clean. Logan Croteau helped me with my pre exam and glasses fitting and she was super helpful, knowledgeable, and friendly. I saw Dr. Amir Anoushehpour and he was clear about what he was doing throughout the appointment and explained the science behind what he was doing. He was transparent about my rights to my information which I didn't have with past optometrists. Dr. Anoushehpour was cheerful and had funny anecdotes throughout the appointment. IRIS had a lovely selection of glasses and I got myself a pink pair which I'm excited to receive in a couple weeks.
Another great experience with Iris Optical! I have found the team there is friendly, efficient, and expert in their delivery of services. Looking forward to my new prescription sunglasses!
Great Experience I had been unable to read small print for a couple of years and finally decided it was time to have my eyes checked. I chose Iris because it was in my community and was very happy with my decision. Dr. Christian Nanini, Optometrist examined my eyes and took the time to explain what was going on with them. He showed me an image of my eyes on a computer program and in layman terms explained what was going on. He also took the time to answer all my questions. What a great doctor Dr Nanini is. It came time to choose my frames and Cathy in customer service was so patient, helpful and gave me the time I needed to make my decision. They also had a good selection of frames to choose from. As an added bonus they do take direct payment if you have happen to private insurance. I would highly recommend Iris to anyone looking for a vision care clinic.
Excellent service. Really care for the customer's well-being. Extremely thorough exams, and very knowledgeable and friendly optometrists!
Dr Denny Birring is one of the best eye doctors I have ever been to. I moved to Ontario now, but I really wish I could go back to him for an eye test.
I just had the most incredible experience at Iris! This was the first time that I really invested in my eye wear and I am so happy I chose this location. Rose the consultant here was amazing and so helpful. She spent time helping me choose the perfect pair of glasses. Additionally, being a student, eyewear is quite the expense- Rose catered to my budget and then helped set up a payment that was perfect for me. She also helped me bill my benefits (something I was worried I would do wrong!). All this took quite a bit of time and not once did I feel rushed or like I was not a priority. Overall the best experience I could have asked for and I will return to them.
I went in for an ocular emergency, and I was immediately attended with Dr. Angle. The staff put my ocular health as a priority and made the time to see me. Thank you again IRIS for the amazing help.
Very helpful ... Really look out for their customers
The staff are friendly and knowledgeable - great experience with my eye test and selecting new glasses!
A huge thanks to the Iris staff for their exceptional service and customer care. All the staff, in particular, Auliya and Mary assisted me with the challenges of lens and frames. I would recommend, without hesitation, Iris for all your optometry nerds.
My recent visit to IRIS eye clinic was made me very pleasant. Gissou check me in and assisted me all the way to choose my new frame and progressive lenses. She was patient to show me number of different frame styles until we came to agreement on my new pair. She was very helpful also in claiming my purchase to my insurer. Dr. Sharon Lam examined me and did adjustment to my lenses. Dr. Sharon Lam is the most meticulous, kindest doctor I’ve ever seen. She has so much knowledge and patience! You can really see how passionate she is about her job. Such a great experience! They are in a modern and well organized office . Thank you IRIS !
Very knowledgeable staff! Fast and courteous!
The photo image they took of my eyes for the exam the optometrist said it was a poor image yet they never bothered to take another one. I walked out of the store with $912.00 on a fexiti 6month plan to pay which took over 1hr to sign up for in the store, only to be told when I finally was able to pick them up 3 weeks later because the first pair didn't pass a quality test that I would have to pay $250.00 because that's what my health plan covers. I feel I got ripped off with this 250.00 because that wasn't my understanding. My understanding was the amount put on my flexiti card. Nobody to blame but myself I suppose, but I will never be going back for the amount I spent there. Should have went to Costco. I suggest you do the same.
Dr. Angle is an amazing optometrist, would recommend to friends and family. Very thorough and knowledgeable! Takes the time during exams to walk you through various changes or concerns; I have never felt rushed during an appointment. The rest of the staff at this location are fabulous as well - friendly and helpful.
Very friendly people here. It was easy to get an appointment and my new glasses arrived within a week. I am very satisfied!
I flew over to Iris on my recess break, because a stage riser fell on my head and bent my glasses so badly, I couldn’t wear them. Jace quickly got them fixed and was very sympathetic to my swelling face. He wouldn’t let me pay for his service. What a kind and helpful man. I was looking for a new optometrist and eyewear store and I found it. Thank you for your help, Jace!
Super responsive and friendly staff, great product offerings!
I highly recommend visiting Iris, midland ont. The staff were amazing, making sure my visit was comfortable, and had covid protocols in place. They followed them properly ensuring the safety of staff and others. They have top of the line equipment, and took the time to explain every step of my visit making sure I knew what to expect prior to any testing taking place, which help make me feel less anxious. Thank you for making my experience a great one! ????
Short wait, good service from everyone. Eye exam very efficient.
I have never had anything but great service at Huronia Optical. The staff are very friendly and helpful.
I had a fantastic experience! The staff was incredibly friendly. I was helped by the Manager Darren Wilson and I really appreciate his commitment to help me to find the best prescription glasses according to my needs. They have the best brands and best price in town. Excellent customer service! I’ll definitely recommend to my family and friends.
Fast and friendly service, great help with finding the perfect frames. :)
Mary from this IRIS location is a star! I was leaving for vacation without glasses or contacts and she coordinated with another IRIS location in Langley to get me the right contacts just in time for my trip. THANK YOU
Spent more time than I wanted to there but it was all good. Looking forward to the new goggles when they are in! The staff under Dr. Nanini’s care were second to none...
very rude and unprofessional. I am not too sure the name of the lady working today but she greeted me nicely at the front at first and i told her what i needed help with. she started to help me until another customer rudely interrupted and the staff member then proceeded to ignore me and help the other people in the store even though i asked first for help and she acknowledged me to help me. After standing for a bit she said she would just be a minute. normally i get great customer service at the location but today i am highly disappointed at how unprofessional this staff member was.
So impressed with the quality and wide selection of sunglasses! Great brands and prices, and service that you can't get at Sunglass hut etc. Their optician custom fitted my new sunglasses to my face so they don't slide or move around, and they even offered to help service some of my other sunglasses. Will absolutely be back!
Customer at this store for many years now and everyone there is always extremely kind, helpful and knowledgeable. Michelle has helped me many times over the years and I really can't say enough great things about her. The employees here go above and beyond. I am very happy with the quality and look of the glasses (and contacts) I have purchased here given concerns about a strong prescription. Always a pleasure.
Iris in the Prince George location is definitely a happy and friendly environment to be in. The eye examinations are thorough, detailed and the staff are very skilled in their field of work. The selection of frames are very stylish and fit with today’s current trends. I’ve also got contact lenses from there as well and they’ve been perfect for special occasions. I would highly recommend going here for your vision-related questions and appointments.
I've been getting my contacts and glasses from here for the past 5 years. The staff here know what they're doing. Duane, the manager (?) has been fitting contacts for decades and does a great job!
Awesome customer . Great with my daughter. Definitely my new choice for our eye wear
The most amazing service ever! They even gave me tea & candy! So helpful! So knowledgeable! I will always send everyone here! We went to five other places in the same day and not one place even came close to this service! My friend found a pair! Love love love them! Thank you!
I love this location and actually drive from Victoria after I moved still! Great selection of glasses and really helpful staff.
Wife and i bought glasses with A.J. She was very friendly and helpful. Everyone was friendly there to be honest. Thanks Iris.
I’ve been to this location a few times in the last year. Customer service here varies widely - one day it was good and the next time it was horrendous - and some staff members here are just downright rude. I never know how I’m going to be treated when I walk into this location and it’s quite sad that I have to worry about this. I won’t come back here, especially knowing other Iris locations provide friendly and respectful service on a consistent basis.
Quality service provided by both the optometrist and front staff who were excellent at helping choose glasses.
My experience with Iris , downtown Nanaimo was excellent. The Doctor that tested my eyes was very professional and thorough, very pleasant person. No worries if you have a problem with your new glasses. Staff at Iris are extremely willing to please . Satisfaction Guarantied. They all made sure I was happy. I’m so pleased I went to Iris . I’m feeling great !
Had to get a new pair of glasses after I broke my primary pair. The eye exam was thorough and they took the time to explain every step of the process and why it was done. Maria helped me pick out a beautiful pair of glasses! Everyone was awesome! I definitely recommend Iris.
Been my eye specialist since I was a young girl. Always great service.
Had a bit of an issue with some new glasses - solved quickly and professionally!
I took an old pair of glasses ive had lying around for a while which were broken, into IRIS and I believe it was Dorothy who was happy to help repair them and get them back on my face. It didnt seem like an easy repair job and while i should eventually get new glasses anyway, she certainly didnt give up and now i can wear them again, Thanks!
Very helpful and friendly staff. Always helpful when choosing new glasses, and they have the biggest selection of Maui Jim sunglasses in town.
Been going to Dr. Karen Jansen Van Rensburg at Iris PG for 3 years (3 visits each for my 2 children and once for myself). Always had excellent, friendly, professional service. Highly recommended.
When IRIS moved from the mall to Timberlands, I was excited to have an optometrist and a professional team so close to me. I had never really shopped at IRIS before they moved, but now it's the only place I go. Jason is one of the most welcoming, friendly individuals, and the rest of the team is no different. We've now transitioned our whole family to optometry care at this store because we love the people. I highly recommend IRIS to anyone who is looking for a new eye care team.
Fantastic experience getting new glasses for myself and my wife. Called with a last minute request to ensure the expense could be incurred before end of my health plan year. Katie was nothing but charming the whole way through the process despite the difficulties presented by covid-19. Exceptional customer service. Thank you!
A comfortable store with helpful, knowledgeable staff. I left feeling taken care of. ☺
Phil, Duane and Paul are great. I shopped many stores looking for a frame that was a little different and finally found some interesting options at this location. If you're seeking something unique, I highly recommend you stop by for a look.
Dr. Karen is absolutely fantastic!
Haven't had my eyes checked for the better part of 35 years! Yikes!! Went to store the other day to make an appointment. An hour later I was helped by Alysha who started the process. Followed by Dr. Fernandez who examined my eyes. Turns out I NEED glasses lol. Got my prescription and then was helped again by Alysha who assisted with helping me find the perfect frames... Can't wait to see street signs clearly!! Highly recommended this location and will definitely be back for prescription sunglasses.
Excellent service
Excellent service! I have been going to Iris for a few years now but I just recently moved to this location. The staff were very friendly and helpful, I would definitely recommend
Experience with Dr.Lam was amazing
I have had nothing but excellent service and eye care from Iris. The staff are well trained and friendly. I have seen a few of the doctors and have always had a good experience. I always feel that I have had a thorough examination with full explanations of the tests and procedures. All the glasses I have purchased have been good quality and the team always works together to find just the right pair. My husband and I are loyal customers.
Mel and Marissa are very professional. Their new location is clean and bright.
Super friendly and knowledgeable staff and optometrist. I saw Dr. Pankhurst and she was very knowledgeable and personable, probably my favorite optometrist I've seen.
Dr. Trottier was knowledgeable and personable, and Miles really made picking out glasses fun. Definitely a great place to go, a good selection of frames and welcoming, caring staff
Very friendly staff and great service! Love the new glasses.....
I always enjoy my time there. The staff is amazing; and I really love Lee-Ann's help in making sure I have the right glasses for my face.
Good Staff Good Service love the glasses I got here amazing
I went In this morning to get contact lenses this . Lisa helped me she was amazing I’m blind in One eye and she got me contact lenses for work. I’m a half hour my prescription. It helped me so much, great service. Great doctors , great service. I will never go anywhere else thanks so much Lisa and your team ????
I went i to see Dr Judith Balberan for an eye exam, a little nervous, as these would be my first prescription glasses ever. She made me feel comfortable and made sure I was confident about each test before moving on to the next. The prescription is incredible! Just the right subtle change for my overworked eyes. Thank you to Judy and Duane for your great service. The frames are perfect as well.
Atmosphere was great and staff was super helpful in picking out the best frames to suit the shape of my face. I am a returning customer and will be back again. ????????
Beautiful location, tons of options for frames, and some of the friendliest staff! Would 10/10 recommend
All of the staff and the doctors are very professional.
I have gone in a couple times and Noel is always the best! Super kind and always a good conversation. I always feel taken care of when I go to this Iris location!
Switched to this optometrist and absolutely love the service I am provided. The girls at the reception desk are very helpful and pleasant, and Dr. Kaufman is extremely personable and knowledgable! Would definitely recommend!
The staff was friendly and extremely helpful and accommodating with my last-minute glasses emergency!
Always very happy with this store - Dr. Kaufman is great. Friendly and very good at what he does! Nice to have such a great optometrist close to home.
Great service. Had a problem with my frames and they fixed it on the spot. Very helpful staff
Absolutely loved it! Broke my frames and they replaced them under half an hour! My lenses are extremely thick so it’s hard to find good frames. But not only did they have the frames but they put them in and cost less then anywhere else I’ve been. Would definitely go again.
i just recently got a new pair of glasses, progressives. being told a couple years ago by Dr.Nickolet that i may need to be in bifocals, ( that's what every young guy wants to hear ! ) i cringed at the thought of being in bifocals. anyway, being in a pair of progressive glasses was what i really needed ! with the help of Dr. Nickolet and the ladies of IRIS, i am so impressed with the quality of them and being able to see much more clearer ! thank you all !! ???? derek lewington
Super accommodating and kind staff! Jonell took care of everything I needed, explained things clearly, and was very kind! I look forward to SEEING them again ????????????
Great! Everybody was lovely! The two ladies at the front were super helpful in finding the perfect frames for me and my girlfriend and very patient while we were trying figure out our benefits. Dr Kiran was also great, very friendly and efficient. A great team. We will definitely be sticking with IRIS Caulfield!
Dr. Nanini was knowledgeable, helpful and personable. AJ and Tanya were helpful and accommodating. Would recommend.
Great customer service. I lost my right lens in my glasses. They provided me with contacts for mean time and rushed to get my glasses done. Courteous and professional. Highly recommend.
10 out of 5, would get my eyes poked at again. I have severe difficulties with having my eyes touched, or having anything too close to them. Dr Pelletier has some tips and tricks she uses and this was, by far, the easiest, least uncomfortable eye exam of my life. Heartily recommended.
Friendly, knowledgeable staff, who take the health of your eyes to heart!
Super welcoming and friendly. Staff always greeting with open arms and a smile, a place you would love to get help from. I was blind before I opened myself up to the option of Iris, truly. Hehehe. And the manager, super lovely lady, really eye opening, quite literally, she does my eye pre check before the eye exam, great lady!
Sepideh and Ivy provided excellent and very friendly customer service and advice when selecting my first pair of glasses. So nice to support a shop in my neighbourhood and be recognized and welcomed when stopping in for an adjustment or repair. They went out of their way to get different color samples in to try.
Great, friendly service!
I have dealt with IRIS in Hamilton and now the Welland office. both place are very professional and excellent customer service. My mai jim sun glasses got scratched due to a manufacturing defect... I tried a few other optometrist around Hamilton that sold mai jim and they would not do a thing. I called IRIS in Welland and in a week they had a new pair and new prescription lenses confirmed to be covered by mai jim, This was customer service at its best..... I also had my driving classes update and Dr. Christian.Nanini was EXCELLENT !!!! I highly recommended IRIS to anyone in need of good professional eye care. Ken Herbolic
Best experience hands down! Dr Langer, Clara, Nicole, and Melissa, the delight, were exceptional! Very happy with our time at iris and our new glasses!
Professional and friendly. I really feel that the doctors really care about my eye health. There is no pressure to purchase glasses from them at all, but I always do because of their great selection and attention to detail for fit and style. My last pair of glasses were by far the best eyeglasses I have ever owned - incredibly clear, comfortable and durable. I recently sat down with AJ to fit a new pair and she was super helpful - showed me all my options and prices. My eyes say thank-you IRIS!
Went into the store because I wanted a pair of glasses of a specific shape, and the experience is amazing! Best experience I've had purchasing glasses!
Exceptional service. Don’t usually review, but they’re just amazing. Dr. Kiran Jhutty’s one of the best Opto I’ve met, as well as Katie who goes above and beyond for her clients. Always so lovely to come into their shop. Highly recommend to see them.
There area few things that are important to me when choosing my eye wear provider. The optometrist examining my eye vision should be experienced & skilled at the job, Dr. Judith Balberan is all that & more. Duane & Phillip, the long time operators of the business provide excellent & patient service choosing the frames that suite your profile & fitting the frames you choose. I have been a customer of Iris Optical for over ten years. Remember that name & try them; you won’t be disappointed. I’m a satisfied customer????????. Joel Slone Long time resident
Dr. Nanini is a very knowledgeable doctor, he always provides vision care options with the latest and best technology out there. He is very personable, friendly and seems to genuinely care about his patients. He shares updates about his own family, which creates a family atmosphere, an additional edge to his practice. I recommend Dr. Nanini highly! I did so to my own family, whom have recently moved to this area as well as to some close friends who have also become his patients. Dr. Nanini has a friendly and skilled office team who are also on hand to look after our every need. Thank you Cathy and my IRIS team at the Seaway Mall!
Best Eye Clinic in town. ????Everyone are very warm and friendly. Dr. KYLE KASSIAN is really good in his craft. ???? He explained everything really well during my visit. He was able to answer all my queries. He is very accommodating and pleasant as well as everyone that work at Iris. ????⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐????
Was having an issue with one of my eyes. Called Tuesday morning and spoke with Jonelle, who was able to squeeze me in to have it looked as soon as possible, by Dr. Rowland, and got it taken care of!
Such a great place with lovely service. Very kind people, I personally felt very welcome. The optometrists are superb. People like Daniela Bugescu and Darren Wilson really make a difference. If you’re looking for a very inclusive optometrists office, Iris is the place for you.
Fantastic costumer service! Dr.Jiwani was approachable,friendly and super knowledgeable. Stacie was a hoot! Never felt rushed, never felt pressured and valued her expertise! Our family won’t be going anywhere else!
Dr. Rowland was great! Really made the appointment pleasant and easy!
I have been going to Iris for a number of years and have found the staff to be friendly and Dr. Julie to be very good. I recently posted a comment in which I stated that when I had difficulty with lenses a few years ago, my concerns had not been addressed, with the result that when I again experienced difficulty with recent new lenses, I did not go to the store, but posted my dissatisfaction here instead. My problem: When choosing options for my new lenses, the assistant had been very adamant that all the coatings I was choosing would still leave me seeing naturally. This proved to be false, and my new lenses give the world a decidedly dull and yellowish tinge, which I find acutely disturbing. After having posted here, I received a phone call immediately and the assistant I spoke with was polite, listened to my concern and is ordering me new lenses without the coating that makes things yellowish. While it is true that this coating might be better for my eyes, it is also true that it negatively affects my sense of well being. I pointed out that I was concerned about the information being given to others as well. It is one thing to choose yellowish vision in order to protect one's eyes, but quite another to choose clear vision and find it is actually yellow-ish. She assured me this would be dealt with so that clients would receive the right information in helping them to make choices. I am very pleased to say here that Iris is ordering me a new set of lenses without the so-called "blue" coating and will refund me the cost of the coating. Thanks, Iris!
I purchased my frames and glasses from Iris Visual about five years ago. I totally love them. So much so, when it was time for a new prescription I used the same frames. Obviously the assistant knew her stuff when she said I would Love them. Iris, you are the best. !!!
I have been fortunate to have Rose take care of my eyeglass needs for over 15 years now. The superb service before, during and after the purchases are second to none. Rose and team are super friendly and very efficient. I highly recommend visiting this store if you are looking for a great selection of eye-ware and excellent service.
Wonderful doctors excellent service and helpful staff. Jason is a wonderful helper and worker.
Superb Service!!! I do not normally heap exuberant praise, but in the case of IRIS Optical in North Vancouver, it is well deserved. My Silhouette frame/glasses, which I had obtained from this IRIS location four years ago, broke at the bridge, and is no longer under warranty. I was already resigned to the fact that I may have to pay a considerable amount to have it fixed, given that Silhouette is an ultra-premium brand. Gissou, who manages the shop in North Vancouver and who has been attending to me as optician since 2016, replaced with remarkable skill and efficiency, the bridge using one from an older Silhouette frame that I had kept. Gissou also fixed another pair of Silhouettes (a spare), which frame was already bent, by switching hardware with an older pair of Silhouettes. When she found out that the bridge of the older pair was no longer usable, she creatively found a stock spare from the store's inventory. I was very comfortable paying for the services rendered, which was quite extensive, but Gissou declined my offer. For her, it was a humble gesture of goodwill. This very kind courtesy ensures that I will be loyal customer for as long a I need glasses! My kudos extend also to the Silhouette brand for the unexpected ability of its hardware to be virtually interchangeable, as long as they are in the same product line. Gissou, thank you so much for the incomparable service you rendered. You, together with your friendly, pleasing demeanour, are a hallmark of distinguished client service !
I am so pleased with this optometrist office. Everyone is very welcoming and I felt safe because of their well organized Covid-19 precautions. The staff seems to enjoy working there and they are all very knowledgable. They are all like a famile, yet very professional. Mitchell helped me choose my classes and made sure I got the best deal that was available at the time. I LOVE my new glasses :)
Awesome service!
Very caring professional. Referred me for cataract surgery and continues to care for me ever since. Best optometrist I’ve ever been to!
staff unhelpful.
Dr. Nanini is very professional, knowledgeable and friendly. He made me feel at ease, while providing essential information and guidance on my vision concerns.
Good service, interest people and great design and quality.
Very happy with the overall experience at Iris Welland. The store is well laid out and safe during Covi-19. Our appointments were on time and the staff were friendly and knowledgeable. Dr. Nanini took the time to explain our exams and offer recommendations to maintain our eye health.
Efficient and good customer service
Staff is great! I had an eye exam with Dr Anoushehpour and purchased a pair of Maui Jim’s as well as my first pair of glasses. Your staff is very knowledgeable and understanding of their patients needs.
Right from booking my appointment, eye exam to selecting frames, it was such an amazing experience. The staff was very professional, kind and knowledgeable. COVID protocols were amazing and I felt very safe throughout my visit. I highly recommend IRIS Midland! Thank you for all your help!
I have been a regular customer with Iris for a number of years now. I normally gad Dr. Pelletier, however she was not available and instead was offered Dr Nanini. I was very pleased with his service. He answered all my questions. I would recommend both Dr Pelletier and Dr.Nanini.
I have been going to Iris for years now. The entire staff is always very friendly and knowledgeable! Dr. Julie explains every step during your eye exam and always answers any questions I have. Val is always a great help when picking out new frames and she always gives a honest opinion! Again, the entire staff is always very friendly and welcoming!
Great staff. Was in a bind Monday morning but this office opens at 8am so that’s really convenient. Jason helped my mother with her glasses after the arm broke. He was able to do a temporary fix until she can get new glasses.
They send me a reminder and can't get me in by year end, wife and I buy sun glasses and prescription glasses every year, told can't help me, guess I'll try else where, so much for loyalty
Fabulous frames and impeccable service! The only place I would consider going for new glasses. Have purchased 3 pairs this year alone and love the fashion statement made by these glasses. I know I will always find something out of the ordinary.I am frequently asked where I buy my frames & never hesitate to recommend Optix in West Vancouver. Both my husband & I have been customers for many years.
For years I would get my eye exam at the same optometrist at a different Iris location. However, after purchasing glasses and sunglasses using that prescription, the glasses were all wrong and I couldn't wear them as they hurt my eyes and were so uncomfortable. One day there happened to be a different optometrist at the clinic, it was Dr. Jhutty. I was actually skeptical to have a different optometrist but went ahead with the exam anyway. The results of her exam were different than before. I ordered some glasses with the new prescription and finally they felt so comfortable to wear!! I now only want to get my eye exam done by Dr. Jhutty, so I even drove 30 minutes see her! Fariba and Maria were also very friendly, helpful and patient in helping me pick out a frame :)
I originally went to Iris for their selection of glasses, and have stayed for their customer service. Once again, Darren was my hero today when I sat on my glasses and bent them beyond being able to wear them. With his usual professionalism, he put them right again. Thanks Darren!
awesome service, took in my broken pair of glasses and Duane fixed them right away and at no cost! ????
Very helpful. Staff was courteous and answered any questions. Kid friendly.
Dr. Nanini was very helpful, professional, knowledgeable and positive. He diagnosed my optical issues with certainty and I would recommend his expertise to anyone. Ted E.
Love my new Coach glasses! The staff were so helpful and entertained my baby while we were trying to find the glasses. Thanks!
Highly recommend the Iris nanaimo team. Kimberly is extremely helpful and knowledgeable in what she does. You can tell she truly cares for the people she helps and loves what she does.
Could not have been a more pleasant experience!! Highly recommend!!
My husband and I picked up our new glasses today and couldn't be happier with the whole Iris experience! Each and every member of the Iris team provided us with professional and experienced care: Dr. Ng consistently gives her best in assessing eye health and prescription needs; Mary has endless enthusiasm and energy with every aspect of our visits; Mike is a kind, patient, and thoughtful technician; and for those individuals who are as particular as I am, Michelle will one up you on her attention to detail! And to top it all off, Iris products are top of the line and backed by a comprehensive warranty!
I have been going to Iris, Marine Drive in North Vancouver for over 15 years. Previously I had always had a tough time finding glasses that were stylish and fit my prescription. Duane changed that. I completely trust his judgment on what works for me, especially when trying new frames and not being able to see! He has fitted me with numerous frames, sunglasses and special glasses for fishing. I highly recommend his services!
I am very disappointed with my experience at IRIS Waterloo. I needed new glasses, and found a pair that I really liked there. Jonathan provided great customer service; however I cannot say the same for the rest of the company. I could not order my glasses that day, because the Ministry of Health would be paying part of the fee for my lenses, which required authorization. This is a standard process, which all eyewear companies have the knowledge for how to complete. There is an unfortunate stigma associated with ODSP however, and it was disheartening that the IRIS employees became rude and apathetic when they found out that I would not be paying the full amount myself. Instead of letting me know the outstanding balance that I would need to cover after the Ministry deduction, they chose not to proceed with the order unless I paid the full cost up front and suggested that I could ask to be reimbursed by ODSP afterwards. The Ministry of Health does not reimburse individuals, only companies. Practices like this are discriminatory. My sister also called in several times over the course of July, and there was always an excuse why the order could not be processed. In her final conversation, the manager told her that IRIS would not receive enough money from the Ministry. I did not come into IRIS looking for a discount. I came in looking for glasses and IRIS would have received the full amount quoted for the glasses if they had chosen to provide non-judgemental customer service. I have since found glasses at Vogue Optical where the customer service and selection were great. I will not be returning to IRIS in the future, based on customer service. Hopefully, they can learn from this, and treat all individuals as rightful customers.
It is a pleasure to go there once a year. Very professional service and great staff. Tanya takes customer service to another level and I recommend she gets a raise soon!
Clara and the staff always go above and beyond in customer service. Dr. Langer is wonderful with the whole family. Staff is friendly and answer all questions without high pressure sales. We’ve been clients at IRIS for years and I always recommend them to others.
Have been going to IRIS since we moved to welland. Always a good experience from the staff to the Optometrists. Very professional and they take the time to explain any issues. Dr. Nanini showed me exactly what the issue was with my eye. This was greatly appreciated. I would highly recommend them.
As always had a excellent experience, everyone is pleasant and professional.
Have been a client over the past 5 years and excellent service has been Dr. Nanini's priority. Staff knowledgeable and helpful, especially Kathy who always helps me in selecting the perfect glass frame.
Jana was very helpful regarding a lens replacement. Always very efficient and pleasant to deal with.
Fantastic service! Absolutely love my glasses, and I know I can always come back if I have questions or concerns.
I always enjoy my visits to Iris Welland. Yesterday was simply for a pressure check. Dr Nanini is always friendly and welcoming. Very impressed with his knowledge and how he enjoys sharing it. You can really feel his passion for eye care. Recently While on holiday, I got an allergic reaction in my eye. The doctor there prescribed some drops. Concerned whether they would affect my eye condition, I emailed Dr Nanini with a picture of the drops. He promptly got back to me alleviating my concern. This is just one example of the personalized caring service that Iris Welland provides.
My Mom was a patient with Dr Mark Langer in the Cranbrook, B.C. Iris office. We have been with Iris for years but we were new to Dr. Langer. He was terrific! Every office visit left us both feeling confident the best job had been done and her vision was in very competent hands. Dr Langer was genuinely caring and concerned for my Mom and his ethics and skills were evident with each visit. He followed up on her case and went out of his way to make sure he was fully informed about any health conditions that might influence her eye health and any new treatments that could help her vision or just make her eyes more comfortable. The Vernon area is very lucky to have him as their eye care professional. Cranbrook lost out on a great eye Dr., a strong community leader and a very good man. We wish him the very best and are delighted to be able to share our experience with him by writing a review of his services.
Very helpful with the kids and my wife. Thank you for your help!
I had a wonderful experience at Iris! The place was extremely clean and organized and the staff are all so kind and accomodating. Kallisha helped me pick out my first pair of prescription glasses and some sunglasses, and I love them! She knew exactly what I wanted and was able to answer all of my questions, was very professional, and generous! Dr. Julie was super helpful too as she was very thorough, professional, and kind as well! I had a great experience, and I would recommend this place to anyone! I will be coming back for sure!
I love it
I had an appointment booked for 6 months and they wouldn't see me when I went in I built everything around this appointment and they wouldn't fix my glasses which i have warranty and the second set broke too. Paid alot of money to be without glasses for quite some time. So if you are trying to book an appointment here you're better off going somewhere else they don't even have your glasses ready after you have to wait even longer for them to come in a pointless waste of time.
Very unprofessional. I waited 15 minutes before someone even acknowledged me. The receptionist was too busy reading something to even say Hi. My prescription was at another Iris, so I asked if it was possible to have it transferred and make an order. I got told they were too busy to do it online but that they will phone them and contact me by the end of the day or the next day. After 2 days waiting, I called back. They were really rude to me, I even had to ask if it was possible not to yell at me. Which after that request M. calmed down but did not even apologized. It is by far my worst customer experience. If you do not have the patience to answer client in a professional way, maybe you should redirect your career. After this experience, I decided to continue supporting my provider on the mainland. I’d rather support a branch that treat their client with respect and professionalism.
My wife and I had eye tests and purchased new glasses last night. We cannot fault the professionalism and helpfulness of the staff there; who helped us make the best selections of glasses and contact lenses. They advised on the choice and price of the products and never tried to oversell. Dr. Birring provided me with the best examination and advice in 31 years of wearing contacts and glasses. This morning I went back and met with the manager to add the two 100 AirmIles bonus cards and a $50 discount card into our account, that we just couldn't find last night (I had left them on the side at home). She was able to quickly able to add these into the billing, and thus I even got $50 back and the 200 AirMiles :)
I took my kid to see the doctor and she was very comforting and the staff was very helpful. My kid has his first pair of glasses and thanks to the friendly staff out front my son is very happy with his new specs! Thank you iris!
I find Dr. Nanini and the staff at Iris Welland to be very professional, thorough and friendly. My questions and concerns are addressed to my fullest satisfaction. This always makes my visits a very positive experience!
Extremely helpful, knowledgeable and caring staff. Doctors are thorough, professional and friendly, and the frame selection is amazing! My whole family comes here for exams and glasses. I would highly recommend them!
Excellent selection of frames for prescription glasses and sunglasses. Very friendly staff who are well trained and know what they are talking about. Have had my frames for over 2 years and can always count on them to help me out when needed. Even replaced my frames for free when they broke over a year after purchase.
IRIS operates as a well-run facility. Staff are both friendly and professional in their approach to the customer and their work. Would recommend this establishment to others.
Nice looking, clean inside and very friendly staff ; but unfortunately overpriced eye exams and staff not explaining why they charge more then thier competitors, nor did they offer the suggestion that healthcare may partially cover an exam fee. For these reasons I give this location a lower rating.
I originally posted a 1-star review for this business after both my husband and myself had negative experiences with their customer service staff during our eye exams, and during our interactions with the employees afterwards when seeking clarification on some concerns. However, I have since received a call from the regional manager to address my concerns. I still believe this store is a work-in-progress, but am also really appreciative of the very professional and prompt follow-up from senior management.
Staff are incredibly personable. Eye exam was quick and efficient. One kind soul even drove out to Surrey to bring in the frames that I wanted, and I am OBSESSED with them. Will be back for a second pair very soon
Went in earlier this summer with an eye infection. Dr. Angle check my eyes and diagnosed the problem quickly. Treatment followed with some drops and within a few days my eye was back to normal. Dr. Angle and the rest of the staff were professional, on time, knowledgeable, and pleasant. I will definitely be going to IRIS for all my future vision needs! Thanks again for the great service.
Dr Christian Nanini is the best optometrist I have ever seen. He is extremely thorough in his examinations and prescriptions and very professional in dealing with patients. . I moved to St Catharines a year ago and certainly don't mind driving to Welland for my appointments.
Michelle Guillemaud and Dr. Anoshehpour were so awesome. Great service. Really great service. Thanks for your patience.
Brianna and co workers made my eye test easy, got me a spare pair of new glasses, extremely grateful????????
Was very impressed by the service and technology at the new smart centre. Dr. Guillaume Jean was very attentive and wanted to ensure my eyewear needs were met. He helped decide on new contacts and followed up after the visit. The store staff are incredibly helpful and knowledgeable. It was a great experience.
Amazing group and fantastic choices of frames. Duane Salmon is extremely knowledgeable and Dr Balberan is an excellent optometrist. This Iris store has the most impressive and dedicated staff who go way out of their way to ensure that you have excellent service. They are extremely knowledgeable and are eager to help you through the choices of glasses and or contacts. Everything is done promptly and accurately. They carry TOPOLOGY frames which I must tell you are the best frames I have ever purchased. It just makes perfect sense to have your frames measured accurately and to have all of the details pertain exactly to your face. The selection of TOPOLOGY frames designs and colours are amazing. The group knows how to help you navigate the choices and are very helpful in suggesting what suits you. I will go nowhere else BUT Iris Ambleside !!!
I Highly recommend Dr. Mark Langer to all my family and friends. His professionalism and expertise is at a very high level. He makes you feel comfortable and welcome. I have been to other eye doctors before, Dr. Mark Langer is definitely the Best!
Had a last minute eye emergency and Sepideh was able to schedule me asap. I couldn't get the name of the other lady that worked front desk but she was also very professional and kind (my vision was still a bit blurry from the eye drops). Really good experience here and highly recommend.
The staff is incredible and have a great sense of humour. Scheduling is very open and the Dr is always willing to provide drop in emergency eye care. He goes the extra mile to make sure that you are taken care of.
Our family has been seeing Dr. Daniela Bugescu for several years. She is professional, knowledgeable and friendly, and we have always received excellent service from the entire team at Iris Waterloo!
I have never had less than great a experience at IRIS Welland. Dr. Nanini and Staff are always Awesome to deal with. I Highly recommend IRIS Optical in Welland.
When walking into IRIS Optometrists, you are greeted by a very friendly and knowledgeable staff. I appreciate how Dr. Nanini takes the time to explain exactly what's going on with the health of my eyes, and I never feel rushed. The staff is very helpful when choosing a new pair of glasses. I highly recommend coming to IRIS.
Clara at Iris Optical in Village Green Mall is absolutely amazing. She helped me pick out frames that actually fit me and the added bonus is that they are funky colours!! So very grateful.
My family enjoys visiting for their eye exams and purchasing perscription eyewear. Today Rita provided us with exceptional professional advice as she was encouraging to help our daughter choose her own eyewear. Thank you for your patience and being so welcoming... especially with our children during these Covid times. Can't thank you enough for making us feel comfortable.
Very mixed feelings after purchasing my first pair of glasses. The people were friendly, but I was left with some heavy buyer's remorse. I was showed four different brands and no word was said about price differences until glasses were picked and sized and we were feeling on our way. That plus the fact that my repeated statements of needing heavy filters on my glasses for medical reasons seemed to not be taken seriously enough. I should have thanked them, taken the quote, and headed out the door! But I was feeling rushed and my little one was hungry and impatient. The blame lays on me and I will look elsewhere in the future.
Stopped in to look for some glasses, there were no other customers but the staff seemed annoyed that I came in. When I asked about men's frames i was told they were all unisex, right .. unisex juicy couture. When I approached the counter to show the model and style I was looking for I was told they don't carry that brand, no alternate suggestions or attempt at being helpful. I work retail, and i know you can have a bad day, but you still need to make an effort. The owners of this company need to know they have a serious customer service issue.
Great service always
Alysha screened us and let us in for an instant appointment. Excellent help, guidance and advice for my need and with selection of frame and lens. Friendly, efficient and professional service. Glad I found them!
I had a negative experience at this location. From the moment the staff saw me, they started speaking to me in a foreign language, assumed I am Persian when I am not, then acted surprised and confused when I said I could not understand. Instead of simply saying sorry and letting it go, one woman demanded to know my origin, while another woman stood there defensively, as if I owed them an explanation. After I told them my background, they seemed irritated/offended that they were wrong, and walked off. Then I noticed them talking loudly/arguing with a third woman in their language, clearly about me as they were staring and gesturing in my direction. I felt very uncomfortable and unwelcome, and did not appreciate this unprofessional and pretentious behaviour.
It felt like the bums rush. Over priced. Never again.
They were fantastic to deal with, super friendly and made the experience enjoyable!!!
Excellent Eye Doctors and Staff!
Knowledgeable and professional staff, great collection of frames available.
This is the BEST optical place that I have ever visited. I was losing my sight in one of my eyes and I was very worried. I was given an appointment immediately, and the optomitrist found the issue quickly and reassured me that I would not lose my sight. He was right! The quality of products is excellent. The service is unsurpassed by any other optical place. Friendly staff, prompt and efficient service, are but a few of the compliments that I can give. I return for adjustments regularly, as my dog usually puts them out of adjustment, and I am always greeted as if I were a member of their family! I will not go anywhere else, and I would recommend that everyone go to Iris on Main Street for excellent and friendly service. :)
The staff are really friendly and helpful... The Dr is caring... I would wait 6 months to get in here if need be but never have I had to maybe 2-3 weeks.. you guys are the best....
Phil and Dwayne, I want to thank you both for your caring and kindness as we navigated through my new contact lense prescription. You are a good 20 kilometres from me with many eye care businesses inbetween, but I wouldn't be going out of my way to get to you if I didn't believe that you are the best. And you are. Your professionalism, expertise and experience, together with your warmth, is a combination that is difficult to find now a days. I really believe that you genuinely care about every single person that walks through your door. That's how I feel, and that's how I've seen you treat others. I appreciated the time and reassurance you gave me. My prescription is complicated and my eyes don't want to see so well, but you took your time, brought in samples for me to try and thankfully I have new contacts allowng me to carry on hiking, snowshoeng and paddleboarding in all types of weather. In my life, you're a game changer. See you in six months to renew my contacts. With great thanks and appreciation, Adele B - Deep Cove
Very friendly staff. The Doctor was thorough and reviewed the various options available to me with regards to my eye exam.
My annual eye examination at Iris with Dr. Nanini was carried out in a very friendly, efficient and professional manner. I have no hesitation in highly recommending Dr. Nanini and all other staff at Iris.
The customer service at Iris Optical is outstanding!! Over the past 10 years, my family and I have been consistently met with helpful, kind, and highly skilled staff who are truly good at what they do. My recent experience of buying Kate Spade glasses was so enjoyable I didn't want it to end! Thank you for your top notch services, which I highly recommend to all! Lisa
Awesome customer service ... awesome inventory.... awesome everything
Dr. Boivin and Ramona were amazing yesterday. Dr. Boivin checked my eyes and Ramona not only found me some beautiful frames to try on but made the process super fun; trying on frame after frame can get tiring but with her bubbly personality it felt like it took no time at all. My children and I have been going to Dr. Boivin for years and I would highly recommend IRIS's Dr. Boivin and Ramona for all your vision needs.
IRIS in Welland is an excellent business. I have been their client for a long time, and it is always a pleasure to come back. Upscale office, considerable range of products and services, very pleasant and professional staff. Quality and efficiency of their work is noteworthy. It is a place which is truly client centered - nobody would pressure you to buy more, or urge you to close the deal before you are completely satisfied. Highly recommended!
I have been going to IRIS for a while now and they are amazing. Everyone there made me feel welcomed and they took good care of me. So I took my son there for an eye exam and he needed glasses. Heidy Lis helped him pick a pair of glasses that best suited him and recommended what would be best for a child. My son loves his glasses. Thank you to Heidy and all the staff for being so wonderful and friendly. I highly recommend IRIS. They truly care about you and your needs.
Rose the manager is a wonderful person. Her staff are very professional and very pleasant they go out of their way to help you. They never rush you out they always have time for you. They always make sure your glasses fit properly before you leave.
Going above and beyond to ensure safety! Always gives a personalized experience!
Beautiful store, helpful staff and fantastic optometrist.
My wife and I had the best experience we have ever had buying eyewear. Richard was very consultative and helpful, and we will definitely go back. We highly recommend Iris!
I go for a yearly exam and have been seen by Dr Pelletier and Dr Nanini on urgent matters.Their service was quick ,reassuring,friendly and very professional. The personnel in the office is very welcoming and helpful It is a bonus to communicate in French with both doctors.They are truly bilingual. I would certainly recommend their clinic to anyone needing eyecare
Definitely the place to go for any of your eye care needs! Full exams, glasses, contacts, laser eye referrals, kids’ eye exams, repairs, they do it all! Only highest quality products used with excellent warranties. Great location. Dr. Birring & all staff will take great care of you :)
I have dealt with many eye care specialists over the years while living in the Province of Quebec. When we relocated to Welland Ontario in 2016, one of my concerns was whether I would be able to find another optometrist. Well that concern was put to rest the moment I walked into the IRIS location in Welland. Dr. Christian Nanini and his staff were extremely professional and customer focused. They treat you like family more than just a customer. Would I recommend their services...... yes in a heart beat. Thank you so much for becoming my new opticians
Excellent service and well educated staff! I've been struggling with my vision for awhile. Dr. Julie was extremely thorough and down to earth. She took extra time to explain my prescription and answered all of my questions. The other staff and I had a great time picking out my first pair of glasses. I will definitely be coming back, and bringing the rest of my family as well. Highly recommend!
SO GLAD I CHOSE TO GO THERE, SUPER FRIENDLY STAFF AND FAST SERVICE!
Went for a repair a few days ago. The staff are so professional and welcoming. They make you feel so special. Why go anywhere else.
had a great experience at Iris Caulfield. Maria is very skilled at quickly finding the right frames. Service is friendly and efficient. Doctor is very gentle and particularly good with kids. Thanks to their professional advice on getting Relaxsee lenses to be able to read , Maria took a lot of time and care to help us choose the right frames for me and my little daughter! I never felt pressured to make a quick decision. I love my new glasses . highly recommend.
Fantastic customer service and stellar eye visit with Dr. N. With the direction customer service is going down these days you will not be disappointed when going to Iris. From the moment we walked in we were treated with the upmost compassion and professionalism. Strongly Recommend this office. Don't waste your time going anywhere else especially SEAWAY MALL PEARLE VISION
Always very professional and very thorough. Both Dr. Nanini and Dr. Pelletier are excellent to deal with. They take the time to answer all questions and concerns and explain the different products At no time do you feel rushed. Their staff is always well informed, knowledgeable and approachable. Been a client there for years now and absolutely no complaints of concerns to speak of.
Miles was incredibly helpful and personable. They took the usually banal experience of the pre exam and made it actually enjoyable. They also have an extraordinary sense of how frames will fit and clearly wants to help people find the right pair with zero qualms about taking the time to do it. Dr. Trottier clearly knows what he is doing and, like Miles, took the extra time to make sure my eyes were healthy (which they weren't 100% but that doesn't matter ????). Since he took the extra care I felt secure with the information I was given. Thanks Iris team! Will be back!
I had an great experience at this location. Friendly, knowledgeable and helpful opticians who helped me pick the best glasses for me while having in mind my price point. Would highly recommend.
Friendly and helpful. Great every time.
I purchased my wife's prescription eye glasses here. This is how they treat men. I asked for a pair of men's readers (2.5) full metal frame. I was shown 3 pair. 1 defenitly woman's. 1 all plastic and 1 not all metal. The one that works the desk will only order the men's glasses AFTER the woman's readers depleted and need to be "restocked" because delivery costs her $40.00. She told me to try Walmart. Nice eh? Only reason for 1 star is because you have to use 1 star to post review.
Always a great experience at iris, lovely staff, having been coming here for many years and don’t see a change in that!
Super friendly and knowledgeable staff. I walked in looking for a nose piece for glasses and the employee knew right away what brand and what questions to ask to find me the right piece without actually having the glasses. Really appreciate the help! Would recommend
Clara and Nicole where amazing.. great advice and very knowledge.
Dr. Nanini was thorough in his examination. He took the time to fully explain the condition of my eyes and my options, including providing additional time after I initially left his office, but then remembered something else I wanted to ask him about.
We are new clients here and have started OrthoK lenses for my son who is 8 years old. I have been given good, comforting advice and am excited at the possibility of keeping his eyes healthy and strong. The optician, Richard, is friendly and obviously knowledgeable and has made us both feel comfortable with the process!
I just recently got new glasses from iris. They are amazing quality and I got them for a great price! Also the service at iris is great. I was welcomed and taken care of by Charmaine who was very personable and made you feel like she genuinely wanted to help find the best solution for your unique case. The optomitrist was then very thourough to ensure you received the correct prescription. I've now had these glasses for a few months and they have been extremely helpful for my specific needs!
Welcoming place with friendly staff and has good selection of products.
My family has been with both Dr. Nanini and Dr. Pelletier for many years, we wouldn’t trust our vision to anyone else!
Great customer service. I didn't feel rushed choosing my new frames. I would recommend them very highly
Dr. Wyse is great!
Just picked out glasses at Iris with the help of AJ. From eye exam through glasses purchase, have had all expectations exceeded. I suffer from inability to make decisions and AJ was fun, extremely knowledgeable and helpful in selecting the perfect frame and lenses. I can’t wait to pick up my glasses. This is by far the best vision clinic in Niagara!
My wife and I recently completed our eye examinations at Iris in Welland. Dr Nanini and his staff were caring and thorough, and were most informative regarding our eye health. It was a very positive experience.
I highly recommend going to IRIS for glasses or contact lenses. Aside from their great selection, decent prices, and quick turn around time, it's their customer service that really stands out. Dr. Ng is VERY thorough and detailed in her examinations and makes sure to investigate any anomalies. Mary, Melissa, and Rose are always friendly and ready to help with any of my questions(even the stupid ones haha) and neve fail to make sure I have what I need. I've had at least 3 pairs glasses from them and a few years of contact lens too. I've never been disappointed.
Phenomenal services! Office staff are very energetic, friendly and welcoming.. and very knowledgeable as well of the products. I have Dr. Kiran Jhutty very professional, knowledgeable and she goes over and beyond for her patients to ensure they experience quality care. Best optometrist you could ask for. I have Katie who assisted me the whole entire time for my new eyeglasses and some little adjustments. brilliant to deal with...a real professional who knows what she is doing and does it with passion and she is nice and friendly to the customer. Knowledgeable indeed! With few adjustments of my new eyeglasses, I’m thrilled to be fitted perfectly. Really appreciated the level of cleanliness and additional COVID precautions they had in place. Overall, all staff are very nice, and friendly professionals... highly recommend to friends!
I usually don't write reviews but I have been impressed and wowed by the service and the care that I have received from the staff at Iris on Lonsdale. They deserve to be acknowledged for their outstanding customer service. My family and I will be your lifetime customers and I can not thank you enough.
Dr. Langer was very knowledgeable and confident. Definitely will go back.
The staff at IRIS are kind and friendly; they go out of their way to help us. They are very accommodating for various needs.
We have been buying glasses for our daughter in this place since she was not even 1 year and she's now 2.5 years old. Val is amazing, she always takes time to find something that works best for her. Even when my daughter is not cooperating she finds the way to get her right glasses. As long as she needs glasses this is the plase where we will go! THANK YOU VAL!
Very happy with my glasses and the excellent service!
Completely professional service. Great staff and Dr Nannini was very knowledgeable.
Dr Nanini best eye doctor, cares and explains everything! Iris great staff always feel at ease there..
my wife and i have had dr. n. and dr. p. since 2004 and have (believe it or not to a dr.'s appointment) enjoyed every visit the minute we walk in the door, we enjoy the espresso coffee!!!!!! we also have recommended them to all our friends and family (our children also are pt.'s), they are the best !!!!!!!
Went to the Iris store on View Street in downtown Victoria to see if they could replace a broken arm on my glasses in short order since we were leaving on vacation in 3 days. I was served by Nicole D, who was extremely friendly and helpful, going beyond the call of duty. She did not have the part in stock but phoned around to other non-Iris stores (i.e., competitors) to see if they had what I needed. They did not, so she ordered the part from Toronto, stressing that it needed to be in Victoria within 2 days. It all worked out perfectly with lots of time to spare. Kudos to Nicole D - fabulous customer service!
Jana made me feel like family, and Nico's phone etiquette is very reassuring. Jana handled a rush order for my glasses personally, and she made sure I got them as quickly as possible because I didn't have a backup pair. (I lost my regular glasses in a kayaking accident.) As soon as the glasses arrived at IRIS White Rock, she called me and let me know I could come and pick them up, and she joked with me to lighten the mood and make me feel like family. Earlier in the week, when I anxiously called prematurely to check on my order, Nico spent an extended period of time on the phone with me looking up the details of my order, and he managed to track the glasses to a minute of when they would arrive. I was stressed out, having been unable to see anything but blurry figures for five days, and Nico's patience and thoroughness on the phone made me feel confident everything was being taken care of. In the initial eye test, Dr. Birring was friendly, personable, efficient, professional, and he shared some insider information with me when I asked about foods that would help my eyesight - apparently sugar causes micro-leaks in the small blood capillaries in your body, and an optometrist can view these micro-leaks in the images of your retina. The information inspired me to cut back on sugar. Today, I have an excellent pair of glasses, thanks to the team at IRIS White Rock, and I keep the glasses on with a string - just in case I roll my kayak again.
I recently moved over to here and I love everything about this place. Nice atmosohere, great friendly & professional staff, answered all my concerns and was very informative.
I have been going here since I was 14 and I am know 19 this place is very clean and professional and in a good location middle ish area of Lonsdale. The ladies here are always helpful and give there honest opinion they always get me to try on different glasses style and shape they are good quality too. The only complaint I have is they are kind of pricey overall pretty good people, community and customer service.
I needed a new Optometrist close to home........and found one :) Dr. Monica Kalkat was fantastic!
Delightful staff nice place. Parking it sometimes is a challenge but over all a great experience.
The staff are amazing! They have always gone above and beyond to help my family. Whether its scheduling appointments, fitting glasses, or helping us choose our new pairs of glasses, they are always there to help! Alysia has been amazing and even helping answer questions on her own time off.
I have had very poor eyesight all my life and have hated getting my eyes checked for that reason. Dr. Christian Nanini of Welland Iris has changed that. He explains things and makes sure I understand what he is telling me; he is patient with my questions and takes his time answering them, and he has a great sense of humor. I trust him completely. I must also commend Rita in Customer Service. She is friendly, warm, and helpful. They are a great team!
Will not repair glasses without appt. Told them I was too busy to rearrange my schedule to do that and was told that they would not be able to fix my glasses without appt. Very expensive glasses and now are useless. No contingency plans to be able to just drop them off. Worst service ever.
Your staff are patient professional and exceptional with customer service from the receptionist calls, to intake of patients, and to the final glasses/frame selection! Thanks for the wonderful patient care! You are all AWESOME at customer service! The wait time was great, I loved my visit, as soon as I walked in I was welcomed, the staffs were friendly and the Doctors were great!
Terrible experience. The first delivery had poorly cut lenses—ill fitting and loose. When I recieved the re-make...as soon as I put the glasses on I knew the prescription in the right lense was off alignment or incorrect degree. To add, every time I wipe the lenses microfiber cloth gets caught/snagged because the lenses were again, poorly cut and ill fitting. But you can only get lenses re-cut once for no charge, so I am basically out of luck and $$$$. Also their weekday hours of operation are only convenient for retirees—not suitable for working people. The lenses take a whopping 2 weeks to cut—that’s too long for today’s speed of business. Luckily the frames are high quality designer so I can get the lenses replaced in a couple days back at where I used to go (and for a third of the price). I got these quite a few months ago and thought I would eventually grow into/get used to the quirks, but no—it’s just not done right. So frustrated every day that I was compelled to come back and write this review before I head off to get these fixed elsewhere. Never again.
All the Staff were very professional, Knowledgeable, and patient, no problem reccommending this branch of Iris.
Absolutely phenomenal customer service!
I had a great experience at Iris Caulfield. Maria (manager) is very skilled at quickly finding the right frames. Service is friendly and efficient. Doctor is very gentle and particularly good with kids. Highly recommended.
I come to iris for a Eye exam. The Staff treated me with great respect kept my safety in mind at all time. The doctor made me feel safe. He listen to all my questions I had to ask and answered all my questions . Then he made sure I understood what he was saying.I have had I exams before and was never treated like I was today. I picked out glasses and the front end ladies kept my safety in mine too listen to what I had to asked and kept me in the budget that I told her I had I highly recommend IRIS to anyone and Everyone Thanks you So much
Always love their customer service here! very professional, friendly staff. Michelle one of the opticians and Rose the manager there always welcomes you with a warm smile as well. I have been coming here for years for my eye exams and purchasing my Maui Jim and Ray Ban sun glasses. They take their time to really know your needs and wants. Bonus you can always come back to adjust or clean your glasses anytime. My eye exam with Dr Birring went smooth and I wear daily contacts (super comfortable). To the staff thankyou for taking care of me and my purchases. I highly recommend this Iris store you won't be disappointed!
Once again i received expert friendly service at IRIS. My family and friends report the same great experience every time. They are the best!
Highly recommend, both my Mom and I have purchased glasses here. The staff always goes above and beyond to ensure excellent customer service. Mary is especially helpful, whether it’s your first time purchasing, or you’re a returning customer, she is always there to help. Lifetime customers hands down!
I wouldn't go anywhere else for glasses or eye care! I'm always so pleased with the 5 star service, especially from Duane, every single time I call or come in. Professional, friendly, knowledgeable and efficient, IRIS has it all! Thank you for the year's of great service!
This was my first time using the IRIS establishment for my new glasses. The staff was very pleasant to work with. Jonnel assisted me with picking out my new glasses as this can be an overwhelming process for anyone. I have had many compliments on my new glasses. Thank you to everyone at IRIS. You definately have a repeat customer.
My husband and I have just bought prescription glasses, prescription sunglasses and contacts all from Iris. This was due to an employee Jessica who is great at her job and enjoys what she does. She is knowledgeable and helpful, which motivated us to be on-going customers. We are very happy with our experience.
By far the best experience I’ve had for getting new glasses! The staff was amazing. Dr. Birring was very thorough and explained everything in a way that was clear and easy to understand during my routine eye exam. Rose was so helpful when it came to choosing new glasses! She really pays attention to all the details to ensure you find frames that are perfect for you and fit you best. Overall the experience felt catered to me personally and you can tell they care about what’s best for you and your needs. Will definitely be going back next time!
I had an appointment at Iris today, the staff were welcoming and provided great customer service. Dr. Langer made my experience wonderful by explaining things as the examination went along and discussing the health of my eyes. He was really good about discussing different options that I might find beneficial without making me feel pressured. I haven't had my eyes checked in years and so I was thankful to have such a pleasant and informative experience.
Always a professional and friendly experience. A pleasure seeing Dr. Nanini, Dr. Pelletier, Rita and the entire helpful staff at IRIS in Welland.
Great selection of frames to choose from. Mitchell was great at helping me find a pair of frames that worked for me and were affordable. Very friendly and professional. I will be back for my next pair!
We have had many great experiences with the team here. Most recently Dr.Anoushe did an exam for my 2 year old. He was so great with our little one and she was happy and willing to do the entire exam with no issues at all, I even dare say she enjoyed her visit! Our whole family highly recommends coming here for adults and children and we will continue to come back due to the great treatment and service we get every time.
Excellent and very professional service, great variety, convenient location.
My experience with iris Huronia optical and dr Georgia Pankhurst was so incredibly good! I was having a big problem with my eye and my own Optometrist could not see me so I called Iris Huronia Optical. They welcomed me even though I had just bought glasses elsewhere. They took me in that very day because of the urgency of my problem! It was such a nice friendly atmosphere and it made me feel at ease right away. Dr Pankhurst was amazingly! Even though she had had a long busy day and still more to see she took the time to check my eyes in detail and then took the time to explain all that was going on! She didn’t just send me on my way either that evening, she made an appointment for me the very next day to keep a close watch on my eye situation! She was so knowledgeable and friendly and explained everything! When she could see that my eye was improving she made another follow up appointment in a week! I would and will recommend Dr Pankhurst and Iris Huronia Optical.
Anfelas and Niko were incredibly knowledgeable and helped me find a pair of glasses that I was genuinely excited about. The staff was super friendly and adhered to covid 19 precautions very thouroughly which i appreciate as someone with athsma. The doctor was very knowledgeable and patient. Will be going back.
Michelle is terrific!!!
Always friendly, fast, and quick to fix mistakes. Doctor Karen is very kind and professional. I highly recommend Iris if you are looking for stylish modern eyewear styles.
I have been taking my son to this place for the past few years for eye exam. The doctor and the staff are very kids friendly and my son can hardly wait for his next eye exam at this office. Thank you for the wonderful service and thorough eye exam.
Highly recommend this location. I am a Paramedic and work in the valley area. Gissou and her team accommodated me even though I work different hours of the day. On my arrival they handed me mask, hand sanitizers through out the store, and any glasses I tried on was sanitized , store was extremely clean and all staff had the appropriate PPE on. The doctor was extremely professional and friendly. I purchased glasses and CL. They also provided me with sample CL until I receive my order. Thank you so much guys. I will return and bring my co-workers as well.
Eye exam went well and staff were friendly at time of exam (though I did feel some pressure to purchase glasses after exam from the staff). But didn't find a suitable set of frames at the time. When I found frames at another store, they were unhelpful when it came to faxing over my prescription to the other retailer. While this created a major hassle for me, I did receive an apology phone call at a later time to apologize for their network being down and that in store traffic had contributed to their inability to fax it over.
I had a great optometrist whom I really trusted but I moved to WR and needed a new optometrist. I stayed with IRIS because they have been great to me in the past and I appreciate how easy it is to have my file moved and if I'm traveling there's probably an IRIS nearby. I have visited Dr. Angle 3 times now over several months. First for my eye exam, and second and third for contact fitting because I wasn't completely happy with the first set of contacts. He (and the staff) are amazing. Dr. Angle took my concerns seriously and found contacts that work. Also at my first appointment he recommended I change my reading habits a bit (he takes the time to really understand how you use your eyes) and at my most recent appointment my prescription went down in one eye because the minor change reduced my eye strain so I don't need the higher prescription. I would definitely recommend IRIS Waterloo and Dr. Angle.
Very helpful Saved money We have had a long relationship going back years..it just gets better.
I recently had an eye exam at this location from Dr. Catchuk and found the whole experience to be very professional and comprehensive. His friendly approach relieved any anxiety I had about the exam. He took his time with the procedure and explained clearly the results and suggested a follow up to a local clinic. I would have no hesitation in recommending the staff at this Iris location and the services of Dr. Catchuk.
Fantastic selection and great prices for quality frames! 5 star service
My first time buying glasses on my own and wow...they all were extremely helpful and friendly! Rose, Michelle, Dr. Kalkat, thank you so much for your help, guidance, ease and laughter. They helped me find and narrow down to a pair of beautiful LYA glasses with Blue Light Lenses that I LOVE and am SO happy with. They're honesty and help was friendly, fun and yet professional...so appreciated! Thank you!
I have always had a very positive experience with this office. From the moment you walk in, you are greeted with friendly smiles from staff and both Dr Nanini and Dr. Pelletier are the most caring people I know. I strongly recommend Iris Welland.
Just bought new prescription sunglasses from Iris. My service rep Mary Hudson was very knowledgeable about the products and the services provided. Highly recommend people using Iris. Great overall experience!
Dr. Catchuk is amazing. He spent a lot of extra time trying to fit the perfect contacts for my horrible eyes.
Just had my eyes checked. great staff, wonderful experience. Can't wait for my new glasses. Thanks
I have been going to IRIS for over 20 years. Dr. Nanini is thorough and he takes his time to examine and explain overall eye health. I am never disappointed with my visits. The staff is amazing and helpful when choosing frames that don’t break my bank!
Dr Balberan was very informative and through. She took the time to explain everything to me and put me at ease. I would definitely recommend her.
Dr Nanini, Dr Pelletier and their team are all very friendly and extremely knowledgeable. Every time my children and I have come to the clinic, we have received punctual service. The ladies at the front desk are excellent. I appreciate the depth of explanation that I receive about our exams. I love how the doctors are bilingual. My children feel so comfortable talking to the doctor’s in French and then the doctor’s can explain the results with me in English. You never feel rushed through an exam. When you leave the appointment, you feel that you received the best possible care and you have a thorough understanding about the condition of your eyes.
great selection ,and staff
Im not a patient here but soon will be. I needed an adjustment on my frames and stopped into this store. They are the nicest people, we spent 15 minutes just talking and laughing. They fixed my problem right away and earned a customer for life.
Dr. Christian Nanini is an excellent Optometrist and always takes the time to explain everything and is quick to answer any questions you might have concerning eye health. I highly recommend him and his great staff who go above & beyond to make your experience a good one!
Friendly, wonderful staff.
Thank you SO much for helping my daughter with her glasses during this pandemic! We were so worried that we wouldn’t be able to get help but Elizabeth Cairns went above and beyond our expectations to help us! I would highly recommend her and Iris Fredericton!!!
This is by far the best optical business I have ever had the pleasure of dealing with. Duane and Phil are exemplary professionals. They and their staff are always positive and willing to help. I fell and broke my glasses in Europe, phoned in and by the time I returned, less than a week later, new glasses were organized for me. Regular visits for adjustments of my several pairs of glasses are always welcomed and taken care of immediately. I did not have positive experiences with a previous Iris but this business is exceptional and highly recommended.
Very accommodating of my eye needs and financial situation, and willing to see me on short notice when required.
just called iris on a Saturday afternoon I am a diabetic , have something in my eye , called to get it out . The girl on the phone said go to emergency or call back next week and I will see if I can get u in , Very disappointed. Last time I had a problem they took me in right away and could not have asked for better service the doctor even gave me his home number , This time I do not know what happened. Lenny Lalonde
Very informative, helpful, friendly and affordable !
Very thorough and professional. Provides follow-up. A+++++
Great eye examination from the front staff to Dr. Nannini. A very pleasant experience.
After searching so many places for my eye exam and for a new glasses, I was extremely happy to find Iris in north van.. the staff are amazing,, my eye exam went so smoothly and professional... when it came to picking my glasses, it wasn’t about the choices Of the frames; it was about the exceptional service I’ve got. Love Iris North Vancouver
I had a relaxed very detailed appointment.i was very happy with level of care and professional Help received
Helpful and friendly staff. Great service. Very nice people to do business with.
(Translated) I was dealing with eyewear in Olds and the quality of the glasses was bad. I went to Iris in Red Deer not only did I get a service in French but the quality of the glasses and after sales service and consultation is superior in many places. Julie my optometrist for 2 years to surpass my expectations and this same with my children and my spouse. She is surrounded by a beautiful team too. (Original) Je faisais affaire avec une lunetterie à Olds et la qualité des lunettes était mauvaise . Je me suis rendu chez iris à Red Deer non seulement je ai eu un service en français mais la qualité des lunettes et service après vente et consultation est supérieur à bien des endroits. Julie mon optometrist depuis 2 ans à surpasser mes attentes et ce même avec mes enfants et ma conjointe. Elle est entouré d'une belle équipe aussi.
The service provided by Dr. Nanini and his employees is always excellent. We are always greeted by our name.
Dr. Nanini explains everything clearly and I feel very comfortable visiting him for my annual eye exams.
Service is amazing at this Iris! The optometrist was very knowledgeable and personable ....definitely visit
I've been going to IRIS for years now and I am always more than pleased when I leave. There is consistent friendly service, a beautiful store with lots of selection, and a comfortable waiting area. Also, my 3 kids have been going yearly and they actually love going! They are treated so well by all the staff members, from the customer service representatives, to the doctors, to the opticians. Plus, they have great prices on glasses for kids, with an unbeatable warranty. Within the first year of buying my son's glasses, I've been able to replace them for free because they were scratched with no hassle, just excellent service. I'll definitely be going to IRIS for years to come!
My husband and I both received exceptional service at this location. I went in with a style in mind and left with exactly what I wanted. The staff are excellent at providing honest advice on fashion and how your glasses will fit with your lifestyle (yay to no more sliding down my face at the gym). The measurements taken were accurate for my face and my frames fit perfectly right out of the box. The on site optometrist allows for convenience and one stop shopping. I honestly, as a glasses wearer since 7 years old , recommend Iris to anyone looking for both high quality, fashion, and competitive pricing.
Angela has helped me with my glasses on several occasions and I've had amazing service from her.
Always a great experience, the staff is friendly, knowledgeable and patient. All details were explained from the initial eye exam through to the selection of eyewear that suited me best. Thanks ....keep up the great work!!
Went for an eye exam this week and chose new spectacles. Dr. Winnie Ng is such a fantastic and thorough optometrist with a great sense of humor. And the Asst. Mgr. Michelle Guillemaud was so attentive, efficient and fun. Such a wonderful experience it was!This place is the absolute best.
This is my very first visit to an eye clinic and when I started looking for one, I was so delighted to hear that there is an eye clinic with a team of very professional staffs and Optometrist very close to my home. I was greeted by Jonell and he was so welcoming, friendly and very professional. He assisted me with all I needed during that first visit. He is very patient with me and actually helped me in picking out my very first pair of prescription glasses. My Optometrist is Dr Julie Boivin and she is so wonderful to have answered all of my questions. I have shared my experience with my Husband and we have decided to transition our family to IRIS, not only because of the convenience of being so close but because the people working there are very passionate, professional and are delivering excellent service. I therefore highly recommend IRIS to anyone who is looking for a great eye clinic/team.
Great facility. New equipment and the optometrists are fantastic. Very knowledgeable and friendly staff all around. Highly recommended!
My wife went to place an order for glasses price quoted was over $900 without frames just for lens.. They processed it on our mastercard same day. Disputed charge already Next morning on seeing two other Iris stores closed in Victoria we got curious and read their online reviews and found out they had poor ratings and phoned the Store on View street to cancel my wife's order. The girls said Manager was off and we asked to speak to person in charge ..Scott called back saying he is Regional Manager and we told him we just placed order yesterday please cancel it we need time to think and he argued and argued and said we didn't have facts right my wife concluded conversation by saying to please cancel this order and Instead of more argument she hung up. Then my wife called again to tell Robyn the lady who took her order to cancel and not place order further and Robyn would not cancel the order as she said overnight the order was being processed and that she had no authority to give us the Lab number to cancel this order So we are being pushed in the corner to spend $900 on lens only which we wanted time to think over Very unfair poor customer service and it's like robbing customers even before the order is processed Unhappy frustrated customer Will be reported to BB , local Newspaper And Radio talk show and social media unless customer is satisfied
Dr Denny Birring was excellent! He did the most thorough eye exam that I have ever had. He was very pleasant and went through all the options available to me. Charmaine was great in doing the pre exam and in helping to choose glasses. Their guarantees are the best! I highly recommend them!
Everyone in the Vernon location are amazing! Helpful and know their stuff!
Both my wife and I got glasses from iris and we extremely happy with the process from start to finish . Jason was very helpful but not pushy. Thanks so much
It was very professional and provided great information. Through sight eye health examinations
Great service! Even in these weird COVID times! I love going to the store and being greeted with all the ladies happy energetic smiles.
I always look forward to my yearly visit to IRIS Welland in anticipation of what new improvements were made. I am extremely impressed with Dr. Nanni and his staff. His staff is well trained and very informative as to the purpose of equipment and testing methods. Dr. Nanni thoroughly reviewed with me my eye history and current status giving me a clear understanding of future expectations. I highly recommend IRIS Welland.
The Iris office in Welland has state of the art equipment, friendly knowledgeable staff and a optometrist that takes his time to explain the procedures performed. Being a diabetic this lets me know that I am in very good hands. Niagara south residents are extremely fortunate to have a "Top Gun" optometrist in our area.
friendly , courteous , professional experience... appointments are always on time... much appreciated by many patients I'm sure
Always have a great experience at Iris Nanaimo! They are so friendly and take their time to make sure your needs are met. Great selection of frames, Kimberly always hooks me up with the perfect style that suits me so well!
Warm, caring & knowledgeable staff. Dr. Nanini provides thorough exams and ensures he explains any questions or concerns in layman's terms...I never feel rushed . Always exceptional care with Dr. Nanini.
Friendly staff and great customer service! Dr Rowland is knowledgeable and was able to identify the issue and the solution with my eyes that the previous optometrist was not. I will be back for all things eyes.
Prompt service, knowledgeable and polite staff. Decor was also nice
Great visit for eye examination recently. The optometrists and staff at IRIS are friendly, helpful and experienced.They always have time for the questions, explain the testing and exam.I have been a client for many years and highly recommend them.
It was my first time going to Iris today for an eye exam. From the moment I walked in I was greeted by Lisa and made to feel so welcome there. Everyone of the staff I interacted with was so kind and professional, including Dr. Soicher who did my exam. I had a wonderful experience and would definitely recommend Iris Fredericton.
I highly recommend the staff at Iris. Doctor Langer was extremely patient with my 3 and a half year old daughter that never sits still and made her eye test fun for her. I can't say enough good things. My family and myself will be going back for many years to come.
I came to the store for a lense, they told me the very basic one cost $400, I asked is there any cheaper lense or sale, and they proundly said they even have $700 lense??? Totally waste of time.
Great personalized service received when I got my eyes tested and glasses recommended. Very happy with my frames and lens as well as the follow up to make sure everything was working for me.
I have been a client for many years and I continue to receive optimal care, quality and experience from the extremely capable staff here!
Very friendly and knowledgeable staff !
Forgot about my eye exam and went in to reschedule and was told I had to pay before I rebook because the optometrist wasted her time when I didn't show. Absolutely rude Dr too. Lost out on a family of 5 eye exams and glasses by not being accommodating. Took our business to Lens Crafters in the same mall. They were happy to help out and was told they get most of IRIS's customers do to this fact.
Amazing customer service, some of the nicest and most helpful staff I’ve ever dealt with!
Great service. Wonderful people
Excellent service and a quick appointment time. Very thorough examination and very pleased with the care and professional and competent people. Strongly recommend Iris for your eye needs.
Excellent service and knowledgeable salespeople. The staff were more than happy to help with adjustments and concerns well after the time of purchase. Would definitely do business with them again in the future.
VERY welcoming, and awesome customer service!
Excellent service and staff
This is the optician of choice for my wife and I for at least the last 15 years. For courteous, knowledgeable staff coupled with a great selection of frames and lenses this is the place to go.
Esther from Iris Smart Centre patiently answered all my questions and helped me to find a frame that fits my face and that I like.
I just wanted to tell you how wonderful my experience was. Of course Dr. Pelletier is always so kind and wonderful during the examination. Natalie was so attentive and patient while I was picking out my new frames and Rita was absolutely wonderful in fitting same, when I went to pick them up. Taking the time to put on new nose pieces, heating the arms so that they fit better. Rita must have made 10+ trips back and forth to ensure that I had the right fit and felt comfortable in my new frames. I couldn't thank her enough. Kudos to the entire staff. Sincerely Bonnie Smyth
I run a training company in Alberta and BC with a focus on customer service, so I tend to be fairly picky about customer service and not easily impressed. Iris in quesnel impressed me. Here is why. I walked in without an appointment and they were able to give me two good options, it felt like everyone there was working to help me out in a friendly relaxed manner. I liked the way the team communicated with each other throughout my visit and especially appreciated how they communicated with me. Dr. Ross was excellent. Straightforward, honest and genuinely positive, he has a real passion about what he does. Whatever he puts in his coffee in the morning I want some. The entire staff was eficent, friendly, explained things well, and made me feel at ease and well taken care of throughout the whole experience. It far exceeded any expectations I had going in. Kudos to everyone on that team, I highly recommend this business.
Super friendly staff! The woman I dealt with repaired my glasses in less than 15 minutes. Was visiting from out of town and broke the arms off my frames and she fixed them for me. Very happy.
Very helpful team of doctors and staff
I visited this Iris location with my young son in November 2020, and despite the pandemic protocols it was still a great experience! Our appt was with Dr. Wyse, and he was very nice and informative with our questions. Afterwards I was helped by Alysia in front to try on frames and process my third party coverage. She was super helpful and honest, very patient with the time I took to try them on, and all while practicing great covid protocols. The experience was very enjoyable and I can only hope to be served by her again!
We travel over an hour just to come to Iris Caulfield because the service is just the best. They genuinely care for their customers and willalways try to do what's right for them. Pur family recommends highly.
Called this office and a wonderful customer service experience began. I was accommodated promptly because of a cancellation. Office staff are friendly and professional, and prompt. My doctor personified a caring professionalism,and offered insight and suggestions in diagnosis. My experience was an excellent example of how a visit should be. If you are looking for professionalism, a caring doctor, and efficiency, go here.
My Son was hit in the eye While playing Soccer and his eyes were bloodshot. Even we went to emergency at hospital no one gave us assuance that his eyes are ok till I took my son to Iris at Caufield and saw Dr. Kavian there. He did thrilled eye exam and gave me peace of mind . All staff were so helpful and professional. I’m very impressed and recommend them to all friends and family.
The staff were very friendly and helpful.
Booked an eye exam at IRIS Caulfield Village and had an excellent experience from the moment I walked in the door, to after-sales support.I got tested with absolute care in a timely manner and they really looked into what I needed.They have a great selection of famous brands that I have seen barely in other stores.Maria’s attention to helping me choose the right lenses and frame was so useful.Other staffs were also knowledgeable.Prices were reasonable and would return to buy another pair. Long story short, very professional in a friendly ambiance.
Great experience every time I go here for my family’s Eyecare needs. The staff is very friendly and exceptionally knowledgeable and always make us feel welcome.
We went to this store with my daughter and a lovely young lady name Gissou helped my daughter with her glasses purchase. I highly recommend her and this location.!!
The front staff set the tone for a very professional and friendly visit. Dr Karen was thorough and attentive to all of my needs. She included a follow up to ensure any issues were resolved. The front staff (Kayla) assisted me with finding the perfect pair of glasses thank you!
Most thorough eye examination I‘ve ever been given by an optometrist. Moreover, all the staff there are very helpful and truly want you to end up with a pair you love. Great collection of frames as well. Definitely recommend.
Excellent costumer service and they have a good contact lenses fitting policy. Charmaine is literally the best manger ever.
I came in for sunglasses and Charmaine helped me pick a pair that suited my needs and environment awesome. I love my RayBan aviators. Thank you for helping me make the best choice and investment to suit my needs. I love my sunglasses!
I have been going to see Dr Nanini for many years now and always had a great experience.
What a great experience! I have never needed glasses before but was experiencing aching in my eyes and some light sensitivity. The doctor did an incredibly thorough eye exam and was able to diagnose the problem quickly. The ladies at the front were so knowledgeable and friendly! Before I knew it I had purchased my first pair of glasses and I am really excited to start experiencing some change!
Excellent service !!! Will be back for all of our prescriptions eyewear needs !!!
Excellent product plus excellent service!
One of the worst experiences ever, solely due to the manager of this chain. I was shocked by the lack of professionalism on her part. Should not be working as the face of this company, let alone the manager of it. Would reccomend any other Iris locations except for this one. Horrible customer service and extremely rude, don't know how the manager was even hired as she seemed less than qualified. Would rate this location zero stars if it was even possible.
Extremely accomodating when I was in a pinch and needed some contact lenses last minute for a race. Thank you thank you
Dr. Nanini was very thorough during his eye examination. He explained the process and the results and answered any questions that I had to my satisfaction. I have been a client for many years and will continue to do so.
Iris Optical was my choice for purchase of new glasses. I am happy with the look of my frames and the clarity of the lenses. Clara and Sherri were both very knowledgeable and helpful. I would highly recommend Iris Optical in Village Green Mall, Vernon B.C. Jean
Lee-Ann and team went above and beyond helping one of our patients.
I am trying to get progressive reading glasses that would enable me to see a compter screen and read documents. I have seen glasses with different magnification factor 40 years ago so I know they exist They manufactured not once but twice glasses hat i simply can't use because they were not listening to what I was telling them. First time around they added a distance section to the glasses which is not needed because I don't need distance glasses, only reading glasses, second time around the document reading part is fine the screen reading part is just wrong. People are different you have to make an effort to listen and to cooperate instead of trying to persuade me it's somehow my fault Terrible experience
Friendly staff and very helpful. Whenever I need anything I can simply drop in and there is someone there to answer my questions and assist me.
Thank you Dr. Langer for helping restore my child's vision! Dr. Langer lifted a huge weight of worry off of my chest when he thoroughly checked my 6 year old child's eyes. She had been to 3 other optometry appointments, for persisting eye pain and poor vision, and no one had ever provided such amazing testing, thorough examination as Dr. Langer had. He found out the problem and referred my child to an ophthalmologist who has since taken over her eye care and treatment. I will never recommend anyone other than Dr. Langer as he gave us hope for our child's vision. He is amazing with children, very kind to worried parents, and an excellent optometrist! Thank you!
Dr. Nanini & Dr. Pelletier are both amazing to deal with.
I was long overdue for a new pair of glasses. Unfortunately, the realization that a new pair was urgent came to me just after the COVID-19 pandemic began. I thought I would wait it out a bit, but it was soon obvious that it would be a long time before I could casually drop into an eyewear store. Then my old frames fell apart, making the new glasses an absolute necessity. (I should note that the old frames were not from Huronia Optical - Iris. Also, given the amount of wear they had gone through, I had no complaints about how long they lasted.) In any case, I sent Huronia Optical - Iris an email, as directed on their website, and was soon contacted by one of their staff. They arranged a store visit by appointment. They wore protective gear, as did I. Everything was cleaned and/or sanitized in the store. Necessary contact for fitting glasses was kept to a minimum. I was able to order my new glasses easily and I picked them up today. I am very pleased with them. I am especially pleased with the efficient and helpful manner of the staff, and with their ability to help customers in need during these challenging times. I really would have been stuck without the ability to get a badly needed new pair at this time. Also, I do not have health coverage, but the staff were able to generate some ideas and options to help me save money, but get exactly what I needed and wanted. Clearly customer care is a high priority for this store.
Dr. Langer took a lot of time to explain a condition I have had my entire life (Amblyopia) in a way that made sense and also made me optimistic about treatment options to improve my vision. He also completed a follow up call the next day to see how my eyes were adjusting to some eye drops administered during the appointment and he provided the results of my appointment to a specialist in Kelowna to support an upcoming consultation I have, even though it was not a direct referral.
Very pleased with the level of service at IRIS Vernon, I would highly recommend Dr. Mark Langer for eye exams. Staff was very knowledgeable and the eye health discussion part of the exam was amazing. I have purchased 3 pairs of Maui Jim sport sunglasses through iris and they are the BEST sunglasses I have ever owned. You have not experienced true color until you have seen Vernons Kalamalka lake blue colors through a set of Maui's! I only need reading glasses at this time, but I will only choose IRIS for my future exams and glasses. Thank you
I have been having problems with my cataracts so l made a visit to IRIS Optical. Lisa was amazing. She led me in the direction for everything l had to do and took care of the details for me. I was so happy ..the service was great and Lisa was so friendly and helpful. I definately recommend dealing there. Thank you Lisa. You are so appreciated.
I am very happy with the service I got at IRIS. The staff are highly professional, friendly, and helpful. I got my first pair of reading glasses which helped me with my studies. I also got 2 pairs of Maui Jim sunglasses which I can't drive without.
Amazing customer service and their staff are always welcoming and compassionate. Gissou has helped my family for years and Maryam has been incredibly kind/helpful as well. Will always support this branch!
I had the best experience at Iris Nanaimo! Kim was so helpful in picking out a frame that suits my face perfectly! She was professional and friendly. I definitely have found my new place for glasses! I would recommend Kim to anyone!
Loved my experience at Iris. Rose your team is the best professional, friendly and I your product. I trust you implicitly with all my eye care needs and you never disappoint. Keep up the great work and I'll see soon for my next pair of glasses.
Great experience. Very polite, efficient and great customer service.
My first visit to IRIS. I was assisted by AJ Fraser, who made me feel comfortable and she was very nice. I was then seen by Dr. Marlatts. Very thorough, patient and listened to my concerns and answered all my questions. Once my exam done, AJ assisted me with choosing a pair of glasses and lenses that would be best for me. She went out of her way to help. WOW. She was awesome! even had a few laughs. Even though it was my first visit, I felt like I had been a long time customer. I strongly recommend this location as they are exceptional!Thank you for the great experience!
Love my glasses!! All 3 pairs. Haha. I’m very pleased with everything. The service and quality of products were excellent. Thank you to Mary for her professional and friendly service!
Incredibly friendly and attentive staff! I brought my glasses in (which I had purchased elsewhere) to get a replacement screw as mine had fallen out. I was prepared to pay for their time and for the screw but instead when I returned they just asked me to leave a donation in the charity box at reception. Not only had they replaced the screw they also tightened, cleaned and polished my glasses! I was sincerely surprised and blown away, you don't often experience that level of kindness and customer service anymore. 5/5 stars guys! Keep up the awesome service!
I have been here several times now. I found them to be extremely informative. The girl I dealt with, seemed so knowledgeable about the products in the store. She also took the time to make sure the frames were perfect for me. I left feeling so happy about my choices. I also took my son there for his first eye exam, they were so good with him and made sure I knew what to look out for etc.
Val and her staff at Iris Red Deer are amazing. So friendly and quick to accommodate. The eye doctors are very personal and the front end staff makes you feel right at home. Thank you Iris Red Deer.
I went to get my sunglasses from Jason to pick a new pair I ended going to the same pair as i had before, but as soon as i came in jason already had a selection for me to try. Hes so accomodating to your needs and gives the honest opinion of the style. i love my sunglasses and will continue and only will go to him for my optical needs. You rock jason, get a raise!!
Came in with glasses that badly needed adjustment. Staff was very helpful and efficient. Thanks IRIS.
Dr.Julie is my Optometrist since they were at Bower Mall. She has all the patience to check on you and explained in details about your eye needs. I highly recommend her to be your Optometrist.
My experience with Dr Nanni was great. He thoroughly explained my options related to my age normal changes and multiple product options. He also explained how laser surgery is used for different conditions. Great experience. Definitely recommend Dr Nanni and his staff. Mark Wikston.
Great place - great staff and great Dr. Highly recommend!
I have nothing but the highest regard for Dr Nanini and his staff. Most professional, friendly and helpful office I have been in. Dr Nanini has taken time at each visit to thoroughly explain exactly what is going on inside my eyes, from light flashes to the beginnings of cataracts. He is very thorough, and comforting. All in all, my very best experience, ever with an optometrist and with his great support team !
Great care and service! All the staff genuinely take an interest in making sure their clients are well taken care of.
I had a great shopping experience recently at Iris. The staff member was friendly, helpful, knowledgeable and made it easy to find a pair of glasses that I liked and that fit well. Would definitely recommend Iris to anyone looking for new glasses.
I highly recommend the staff at Iris Powell River! I was very concerned about my eyesite, but Dr Wyse and the other staff members were very reassuring and helpful. I wear progressive lenses that can be a bit tricky, but i was treated with respect and kindness every step of the way. I am so thankful that our community has such a wonderful optometrist with patient and helpful staff members. Thank you Latham, Nicole, Matthew and Dr Wyse!
Friendly efficient staff, upscale facility and highly professional service.
AMAZING PROFESSIONAL & CUSTOMER SERVICE TEAM (The A-TEAM) It has been nearly 2 months since my 80+ year old father’s appointment and we wanted to express our gratitude for the professional and overall customer service experience he received from Dr. Stephanie (Stef.), Val, and the A-Team for making my father feel comfortable and providing him the professional advice he deserves. After nearly 50 years since seeing his first eye doctor, he is looking forward on returning for his follow-up visit… Gerry/Laren
So grateful for Ronnie today! She went above and beyond to help us with an emergency eyeglass replacement. Really appreciated her excellent customer service.
Very professional and friendly atmosphere answered all my question,
Great and friendly staff. Treat you like family even when it’s been way too long since your last visit!! :)
I have been a patient of Dr. Blanchard on and off for over thirty years. I have tried other places and keep coming back to her. She has never pressured me to buy from her and has always supplied me with great advice. Thank you DR. Blanchard
I always have great treatment, the staff always look at ways to help you as a customer. No pushy sales pitches. Doc is friendly and explains your eye issues...its always a positive environment..
Excellent curbside service. I called and asked about a particular pair of RAY-BAN sunglasses and I was met with a quick solution and kind service. Payment was clean, safe and easy. I highly recommend IRIS Optical; formerly Huronia Optical.
Our experience with unnamed female Dr. was sub par, worst eye exam ever. Poor understanding of the whole process. She was slow, didn’t explain what she was doing when asked and seemed distracted. We would highly recommend avoiding her at all cost!!
Excellent office with friendly staff and Dr Nanini is the best Thank you for all your help.
IRIS clinic staff were very helpful and took their time assisting me in purchasing new glasses. I had not been to this eye clinic before, but I did not have to wait weeks or months before booking an eye examination. Dr. Nanini was a pleasure to meet and he thoroughly explained the changes in my vision. He was very friendly and genuine! Merci!
Wasn't sure as we have never purchased from Iris before. They squeezed us in before a trip and went over and above expectations to the point of placing our order while we were away to take advantage of a sale coming up. A really customer service orientated business and a pleasure to do business with!
The Ladies at Iris are Amazing and fun too. I would recommend anyone to go there.
A great experience - Dr. Nanani and staff are very friendly and very knowledgeable.
Always the friendliest and most helpful staff!
I had my first visit last week and I would definitely recommend Iris. Staff were very friendly and helpful and Dr Nanini was excellent! I was very impressed and felt well looked after! Thank you for a great experience.
Walked in and staff greeted me already with a smile as I entered the store. Asked a couple of questioned to Val I believe she is the manager. She is very accommodating and has a great sense of humour. She walked me through stuff and explained to me all the necessary stuff that I need to know about my queries. Will definitely come back to this store, all the staff are breath of a fresh air. ????????????
Great experience buying my Maui Jim sunglasses. Happened during COVID so had to make an appointment, but Rose still gave me as much time as I needed to choose between various brands and models. Rose, Michelle and Mary were all great to work with at getting what I wanted. All knowledgeable, friendly and fun. Will definitely go here again. Nice store layout as well.
Rude and disrespectful, they like upper class clients only, never go back again
Dr. Nanini and the staff at IRIS are all excellent, very friendly and provide excellence service and help
Great service! Everyone is very helpful.
Everyone in the office is compassionate, and friendly.There service was, (and still is), second to none, they are as dedicated as Dr. Nanini is in making your experience as professional as possible.
I have had many glasses over the years but I have never had such exceptional service as I just had at Iris in the vernon mall. Nicole found me the perfect glasses! Thank you!!
My 5 year old daughter has Down syndrome and we had her fitted for glasses and they were so patient with her! They made me feel like She was their only customer! So easy to deal with. I will definitely be back! Great product, prompt service, great prices = happy Momma! Thanks to Elizabeth Cairns...My daughter thought you were the best!
My experience with Iris was absolutely 1st class l am from out of town,and when l finally made it in,the kind freindly staff(Kati Dinh you rock my freind)...had frmes waiting for me that were just what l was looking for.Kati also arranged for an eye exam at another location as lwas only in town fo afew days...Anyway,l highly recomend there servicesas all the emplyees at both locations treated me with great respect...
This place was an absolute let down. having taken the day off work for my appointment knowing that my eyes would be dilated and therefore I would be unable to return to my office job, I was rushed through, the staff was unable to answer any of my questions several of them being basic ones about optics and the way light works on your eye. I felt these questions were very simple and should have been easy for anybody with even a basic education in optics to answer. Meanwhile the head optometrist sat with his arms folded leaning up against the front counter having an intimate and personal chat with an old colleague the entire time I was there. He did not even make eye contact with me or smile. The service I receive at iris normally fantastic but this location is not what I have come to expect of their standard. And to add to the disinterest I felt. Addendum: the glasses arrived in a timely manner and I was pleased with how they looked and felt. The staff since apologized for my experience and went above and beyond to make up for it.
Excellent service. Very clean. Doctor sanitized equipment before use as I watched, which was reassuring. Felt very comfortable. Staff were knowledgeable and patient as they helped me make choices that were best for my situation and use. Great selection too! Thank you IRIS ????
Dr Balberan is not reliable in referring patients to a specialist. a couple of years ago, she was supposed to refer me to a glaucoma specialist and I waited 3 months with no phone call for an appointment. I had to make a phone call to Dr Balberan for an update, and that's when she finally made the call to have an appointment booked. 2 years later now,, and she was referring me to a specialist once again, and 3 weeks later, I hadn't heard back about an appointment, until I made a call to her again, and that's when she finally made the call to the specialist for the referral. Again, if I hadn't called Iris back, I would still be waiting for my appointment.
Awesome place! Great customer service! The lady at the front desk was happy to fix my glasses for no fee at all.
I highly recommend this location because of the great customer service provided by staff and doctors. They are very knowledgeable and caring.
There is no better Optometrist than Iris Caulfeild! Fariba and Maria have an eye for the perfect style that suits your face and lifestyle, their customer service is the best and they make the experience of eye glass shopping fun.
I have a good experience every time I go see IRIS at Caulfeild.
It was my first time there, staff very friendly and helpful. I would definitely recommend this place!
I always feel welcome and respected when I come to the office. It is like I am visiting with friends and we are able to carry on the type of discussions that friends do.
I've been going to Iris Caulfeild since moving into the area and I've had nothing but wonderful experiences with them, from getting a replacement pair of primary glasses (stylish and super comfy), and nearly immediately repairing them (my fault). 5 Stars, keep up the amazing work!
I was in here a few weeks back to get my glasses adjusted after a fall. And the gentleman was so helpful and my glasses looked nearly new when I left. When I’m due for new glasses I will definitely be coming to this office.
I had a great experience at Iris on King St., Waterloo. I've been searching for a new optometrist after mine retired and I've found the perfect one for me. Dr. Daniela Bugescu is great; she explained things clearly, was thorough and super friendly. I was surprised at all the equipment available to check my eyes that helped me understand the health of my eyes. Last but not least, I must mention the other staff at the clinic, they too were super! I had a warm welcome and lots of help choosing the perfect glasses for me. There was no pressure which was nice, just easy going and friendly assistance. I highly recommend Iris for your glasses and wish you as much success as I had!
Jonell was super helpful with helping me find the perfect glasses. He was super personable and understood exactly what I was looking for. His great customer service and knowledge made the process super smooth. 5 stars ALL DAY!
I always have a great experience with Dr. Nanini and Dr. Pelletier. The whole team that works in the office provides exceptional care and professionalism in their work. I have been seeing Dr. Nanini since i was a child and he has always been honest and fair in his assessment and recommendations.
Friendly staff and they are super inclusive. Awesome at fixing glasses. 6/5 stars lol great location too as I live in the area
Our experience was quite extreme, Karima and Dr. Denny were very accommodating and patient with my children. However, their staff Jana came off arrogant and indifferent, I’m not sure if she was having a bad day.
Anna the front end staff lady, was very nice professional and helpful. Dr Karen was attenitive and gentle and an amazing human I did receive high quality care and was treated exemplary.
Had my glasses fixed there last year when visiting from our of town. They did a really good job.
I took my five year old to Dr. Langer for her first eye exam today. I had seen no signs of her having difficulty with her vision, I just new it was an important part of her general healthcare. I was so very pleased with the appointment and Dr. Langer's demeaner with my child. The exam felt thuro. Any questions I had, he took the time to answer. And my daughter walked away skipping and saying it was awesome! Thank you Dr. Langer for a positive experience.
Duane, Dr Balberan and the rest of IRIS West Vancouver team are absolutely amazing! Excellent service, knowledgeable staff, a wide variety of quality eye glasses/frames and a great location- you got everything that you need. They trully deserve a 5 star rating. I will definitely recommend IRIS Optometry West Vancouver to family and friends.
The price for the glass is ridiculous high. If you looking for a glass, go somewhere else. They even charge $15 for adjust glass which is usually free in all other stores.
Nice, knowledgeable staff.
I am giving my experience at this optometrist a 5 out of 5 rating, the exams for all 3 of my kids went very well and they were so patient with all of us especially my 2 year old who was in full blown temper tantrum by the end of it. I removed my previous rating as I was touched when I received a phone call from Heidi regarding my previous review about my experience and an employee, and apologized for the employees behaviour. It meant a lot to me as a customer that it was dealt with, it shows they take a lot of pride and care for their clients. I wasn’t going to let that stop me from booking with them again.
Doctor is awesome but the iris store part is like buy are glasses or we wont process your medical claim to see the doctor. I was like what a scam. other part i cant say i like is after you get squirted int he eyes with the stuff that makes it hard to see they start to sell you on there product. no real care except for the commission there going to get. I probably keep going to the doctor and file my claim myself. But at this point I doubt I will every buy glasses from this location ever again. or until they change there business practice.
I am extremely grateful to Dr Kavian for correctly identifying my vision issues and providing a solution. The entire staff are courteous, helpful, knowledgeable and professional. I strongly recommend their services.
I had a great experience start to finish, all the staff were friendly and helpful as well as knowledgeable. Everything was well explained to me and I felt educated about my needs and all the options available.
Despite the pandemic, great experience at IRIS Caulfeild Village in West Vancouver. Well received by the opticians Maria and Fariba. Great customer service. Fariba did an excellent job in helping me to do the measurements and to select the right lenses and frame. Good deal in fact. The optometrist, Dr. Jhutty was great. She was very patient and knowledgeable and explained very well all the details along my eye exam. I highly recommend this place.
I was looking for the right glasses and was able to find exactly what I was looking for at IRIS on Caulfield. Maria who was assisting me and my mom was extremely knowledgeable, professional, and helpful. The whole experience was great! Very welcoming and friendly environment. Thank you, Maria!
Always the best possible experience! Great staff, very organized and timely. Dr. Nanini is extremely professional. Selection of glasses is amazing and there are a lot of benefits using Iris. Thanks for the great service!
Nice and relaxed atmosphere. I have had exams from both Dr Nanini and Dr Pelletier over the years. On this visit Dr Nanini as always was very professional and informative. Haity performed the pre test. She was very professional as well and has a great sense of humour. I would highly recommend this location.
Words cannot express the gratitude I have for Richard Casselli for helping me obtain proper eyewear in these times of crisis. I have been going to Richard Casselli as my optician for 30 years. Even though Iris was closed, Richard still met with me personally to order glasses, of which I was in significant need in order to minimize excessive adjusting of my eyewear during my shifts at the hospital; I was unable to use my current eyeglasses while wearing full personal protective equipment (PPE). Richard Casselli and Iris solved my optical issue immediately and I thank them immensely. Thank you Richard Casselli and Iris!
Awesome customer service I’ve been here plenty of times for sunglasses great selection and great staff Michelle was very helpful in assisting me with any of my needs that I needed while I attended the store as well fixed my old pair of glasses which were loose screws. I have no complaints and will continue to keep coming here.! Thanks guys:)
Annual eye exam today with Dr. Nanini...would not go anywhere else! Thorough and gentle and with the best equipment. Have been going here for about 6 years now.
Amazing service and super sweet and smart employees
My husband Jack Hockin and myself Pat Rafferty have been clients of Iris, Ambleside in West Vancouver for over 30 years.We feel confident in the way Iris operates. Iris has a clearly defined vertical service providing optical as well as optometrist support for clients. We were introduced to the Iris Optician Duane Salmon over 20 years ago and as long term clients we continue to feel confident about the optical services provided by him. Duane is an accomplished professional offering an excellent provision of care to his clientele. Overall, we feel assured about what is involved in being assessed for new eye wear with lenses and frames that function properly, fit comfortably and look great. For the past several years we have added to our regular appointments the services of in-house Optometrist Dr.Judith Balberan at Iris. Judith’s services provide a thorough examination of eyes/vision with feedback in the form of discussion and in our case an optical prescription for lenses. We have been very happy with the rapport that we have with Judith and have benefited by the attention she offers her clients. In all, we appreciate the one-stop services at Iris and the care provided by Optician, Duane Salmon and Optometrist, Dr. Judith Balberan. P&J
I have had great success with Maria and Johnny at the Caulfeild Iris shop. I recently had my eyes checked at a local Costo optometrist and ordered a set of Maui Jim sunglasses using their prescription at the Iris shop in the Caulfeild shopping center. When I received the glasses they were painful to wear. Iris graciously did an eye exam to check the prescription, much more detailed than the one I has from Costco, and discovered that my prescription was significantly different than that obtained by the Costco shop! I had the sunglasses re-ground (no charge!) to the new Iris prescription and wow! I can see without dizziness or pain. Maria was most helpful in selecting frames and I highly recommend them for all of you eye wear needs. Very pleasant people with your best interests in mind. Highly recommended.
Excellent eye care! They always go above and beyond for their patients. I highly recommend Dr. Nanini.
They were very helpful in finding the glasses that were right for me.However the submission to my benefit provider didn't go through.I had to submit my receipt through mail to be reimbursed.They were having trouble with their computer that day and that was probably the reason.
Excellent technical competence combined with friendliness. I could not be more confident being a patient and a customer.
Dr Langer and his staff made me so welcome and comfortable. I would highly recommend this optometry clinic.
Dr. Jiwani is a fantastic optometrist and helped my mom with a medical issue. He really cares about the follow-up. I've been going to him for over 7 years for routine eye exams and it is always such a pleasure to see him! I feel like my exams are very thorough at Iris with all the testing and imaging they do.
Very frustrating experience, two eye exams and two pairs of glasses later still don't have a pair of glasses that work. Can't get into see the doctor again to fix it once and for all because his schedule doesn't match ours. First and last experience here. Have never had this problem at any place before, really unexpected.
I felt very well taken care of by the staff during every visit I made. Miles was professional and warm, and they were fun and easy to deal with. I left my initial appointment counting the days to when my new glasses came in! They came much faster than I was quoted, which was a delight, and I'm very happy with the service and the products I received. I'm living for my new glasses, and the fancy Maui Jim's I'd been eyeing for ages! Can't wait for the sun to come out so I can make use of them... Thanks Miles and crew!
I have always had great friendly service from the all the staff here.
Recently went to see Dr. Nanini for an eye examination, he is always very helpful and professional, I truly feel I can trust his recommendations. I also want to thank Rita for the time she spent with me selecting my frames and lenses, she was wonderful.
Very attentive staff! Optician that checked my eyes was very thorough, listened to my concerns and explained everything she was checking. Afterwards I managed to get a nice frame even being on a budget.
The eye exam was complete and professional. The Dr. shared knowledge about glaucoma and cataracts.
Great firm to do business with. I get complete answers to my questions and great service in general
Had a great experience here! Ken was awesome very helpful and patient helping me pick out amazing new frames! Wonderful staff. Dr. Fixed my prescription now its much better, very thorough. Would highly recommend
The optometrists at Iris cares of their clients. They are always nice with us and they give us good ideas for what we need.
My “go to place” for new glasses. Smart, cool frames which are out of the ordinary. Lots of cool styles to choose from. Up to date with current trends. Great service from very knowledgeable staff. (Duane is friendly and very helpful.) If you’re looking for something a little different, then this is THE place. Another thing. The location is so convenient, parking underground is available, and the shop is in the heart of Ambleside. Glad to see they are maintaining the high standards I’ve come to expect from Optix, a consistently great place in West Vancouver for stylish and interesting glasses.
Rose is always the best. Excellent all round.
thorough, professional, courteous, can't say enough good about Christian and the whole staff
I love Alicia. She’s always gone above and beyond to make sure my kids and I get everything we need! With so much patience!!
Rude service and they like to lie
I have worn glasses for close to 40 years. Duane and his team are as good as they come. I've purchased two sets in the last couple of years and could not be happier with the service, selection and pricing that I have received there. Top notch.
Dr. Nanini and his staff are very friendly, thorough and professional. That, coupled with their state of the art equipment is why I have been going there for a few years. I would highly recommend them.
This will be my 1st and last experience at Iris Grandview. Lenses and frames are ridiculously over-priced. Turn around time is very slow and u need to book appt for every visit. Wouldn't recommend.
Dr. Denny Birring very professional and helpful.
Awesome place, fantastic service, fast and efficient. Jason , was professional, fast , polite, caring. He takes his time to explain things perfectly. Love the glasses he suggested.I highly recommend this place
Shout out to the staff and optometrists at Iris Optical at 60 Commercial St. Nanaimo! I had been experiencing extreme eye discomfort from an allergic reaction. The staff went above and beyond to get me in for an exam and treatment. I was well cared for. They're angels!!
Wonderful place to get your eyes checked and buy new glasses. The staff is friendly and kind. Dr. Kalkat answered any questions I had, and was very professional. Michelle was very helpful while I tried on frames that would suit me the best. I will be going back there again.
Many years ago when I needed a new optometrist, Dr. Christian Nanini was recommended. I needed a place that could produce a new set of lenses that were not scratched when I put them on. Not only did I find that, but what a family-friendly place! The staff made me feel like they cared I was there. And Dr. Nanini's bedside manner was so friendly. I remember when I needed the 'line of sight' level on my lenses placed in a 'not normal' level. They agreed to do that for me. It was perfect! I am/was so grateful to be able to see through the part of the lenses that I needed. Dr. Nanini is always there for me even when I just have questions. Check him out. You won't regret it. And the quantity/quality of frames is so great.
Loved my glasses and the assistants were very helpful. They knew exactly what would look good on my face! They are extremely willing to help and offer a personal connection between the client, assistants and Doctors. Would recommended!!
I have a great experience every time I go to IRIS. Staff is always nice and welcoming. They are also very kid-friendly.
If I could give them more stars I would! The addition of Dr. Balberan, Optometrist is the icing on the cake; she is thorough, efficient & explains everything well. Now a one-stop Shop. Duane, Phil & Paul & their predecessor Rita, when it was Optix, have always had the most interesting selection of frames around and done us all proud. These guys are relationship-builders par excellence!
Twice my husband and I were not quoted extra the costs during our appointments. My husband purchased contacts from this location and they were irritating his eyes, so they said to come in to re-assess and choose another type. We were not told that we would be charged for this since it was a poor fitting of the contacts they recommended, but then charged us a fee after we expressed our concern. They would not refund us. We had a great optometrist In Kelowna who was always honest and up front about pricing, so we expected the same customer care here, but were greatly disappointed.
Very pleased with the service from dr Nanini and Rita very professional and courteous highly recommend
I have been trusting my vision care to Dr. Nanini for many years. Always a positive experience from friendly efficient staff to excellent care from Dr. Nanini.
Prior to moving to Iris Downtown and Dr. Winnie Ng, I got testing and glasses from a number of different area optometrists. None of them got my prescription right for my astigmatism and the differences between right and left eyes (due to injury). But Dr. Ng and Iris Downtown did. Testing is thorough and the glasses and lenses they provide are excellent. I have been with them now for many years and have always had a positive experience, and very good service and help.
Everyone is awesome at iris! But Charmaine is very professional, helpful, and friendly she'll make sure everything is perfect and to your preference!!
Good service. Glasses arrived earlier than expected & Majid did a good job fitting them to my face.
My sister and I both get our glasses here, Clare and Allison are super helpful and friendly!!!
In this stressful time due to the Covid-19 problem, it is comforting to have a doctor, and staff taking care of my eye's as completely and friendly as the service I have always received with Dr. Christian Nanini, Optometrist at IRIS Welland. My wife and I have been in his care for many years, and will certainly do so in the future for many more. James Surrette
Went for eye exam with Cathy and Dr. Nanini Have absolutely nothing negative to report It was a positive experience with positive people Definitely a 5 star establishment Kudos to the entire office JC Labbé
Friendly, professional, and personalized service each and every time I visit. I always look forward to my next appointment. I would highly recommend going here.
My daughter Cera and myself had our eyes tested by Dr Mark Langer. The service was impeccable . Dr Langer explained everything so as to put me at ease. Welcome to the community Dr Langer.
I was a patient under the care of Marisa Blanchard from the age of 8 . I refused to buy my glasses and contacts anywhere else until last year. Our relationship as patient/optometrist declined drastically, which was a big disappointment to me. My last order of contacts were late coming in, and, after several calls and being told they were not in, I was not sure what could be going on. I prefer contacts, and, finally, one of the front reception staff exclaimed that they were in fact in the office, and had been overlooked. Bottom line--- they insisted I prepay in advance, and given the lenses arriving and being overlooked, I was uncomfortable with that. Therefore, I had to go elsewhere. Be aware if you are ordering contacts here!
I"ve been seeing Dr Davies at Iris for over 10 years. He's very professional, courteous and personable. He takes care of not just me but my whole family.
