| 695.1 | I go to specsavers | 45364::BUSHEN | I've won a paper clip!!!! | Fri Oct 01 1993 16:41 | 7 |
| Specsavers - cheap - wide enough range for me
- extensive test - no, over very quick, and they use the awfull "is
this better or worse?" technique - I like the "is the red line above or below
the green"

I used Optika for a repair to my (relatively new) glases, and they took a lot
of trouble to get the spare parts, when others had said they weren't available

I know some folks might say I shouldn't have bothered, but I like my glasses. :^)

Another reccomendation for Optika.
Modern equipment, very thorough test, with plenty of time allowed..
Large selection of frames at all prices and if they have your lenses
in stock, then your prescription will be ready in about 1 hr. Otherwise
it's next day service.
Also I believe they are the preferred optician for Digital staff eye
tests.

| I got the full eye test at Optika for half price. Just happened to be
walking past a spied the advert in the window. SHould have known then
that I didn't need glasses.
The tests included the 'is the red line above the the middle' test etc

| The CSC is currently using Optika for all Digital-funded eye tests, for
which they are charging �6 a throw.
They are opposite Marks & Spencer.
Kevin - you are entitled to have an eye test paid for by Digital if you
request it through your Manager. If you need more detail, pop down and
see me (if you can! ho! ho! [sound of sides splitting with mirth all
over Basingstoke]).

I'd certainly recommend J,R & H Floyd Opticians ,
2a Church St. 0256-28246
I've never had such an exhaustive eye testing session!! ...and
yes he also does the peripheral vision bright dots test, the
red line test etc ,etc ...a bit more expensive though , it was
10.50 I think , but I felt it was worth it .....

| 695.9 | What about frames? | SAC::LANG_H | | Mon Oct 11 1993 19:13 | 11 |
| re .7
Jon,
Does Digital (S&SC) have any discount deal with Optika as regards
purchasing frames ?

| Harvey,
Can't speak on behalf of the Sports and Social Club.
From a Health and Safety viewpoint, we recognise that we are putting a
fair bit of business Optika's way. We are therefore currently in
negotiations with them over "preferred supplier" status and a
substantial discount on all Digital subsidised tests and equipment
purchase.
Does that answer your question?
