Should NOT have gone to Specsavers! After being advised by two professionals to get an urgent appointment I tried to contact my optician (Newcastle-u-Lyme) but to no avail. I decided to go in person and was abruptly told there were none and they no longer offer a triage service - they told me to go to Boots! I was also told I should have called, and when I showed proof of 35 attempts, they did not want to know. Boots hadn’t any appointments available, but went out if there way to find an optician in the near vicinity. So thank you to Boots! I certainly won’t be going to Specsavers again!
