So your stores are not answering the phone anymore? Tried last Friday, Monday and again today, sorry we're experiencing a lot of calls and can't take yours?? Leave a message, which I've done, and of course no one's been in touch. It's unfortunate that my mum's a diabetic and it's inconvenient that I have to ring, as I booked online last year, only… Read more
to be refused to see her even though we were in the store. I mean what sort of organisation are you running, you don't want to see people, can't be bothered answering phone calls? Unbelievable
Disappointed – I am now 42 years old, been wearing glasses since I was around 6. I bought two pairs from opsm, the last time I needed new ones, as I have used them in the past. I feel ripped off. The worst frames I have ever put on my face. Sick of going into the shop to have them adjusted especially as it takes 20-25 minute drive (waste of petrol) Thanks… Read more
for wasting over $800 of my money I will never ever go into an opsm shop again!! 2026, I got vouchers to use in opsm, thought I would give them another go. I called Coffs Harbour branch. Now they charge $65 per child per test!! Too bad if you have 3, 4, 5 kids. Where do they get off charging for kids to have their eyes checked. How do they expect parents to fork out money with the general cost of living. 4 kids = $260, for an eye test. Up your bum too opsm

Excellent Service, Top Quality Frames and Lenses – Recently had my 2 yearly eye test and upgrade for new glasses at OPSM North Lakes, Queensland. Dr. Phil Tan gave me my eye test and he was simply awesome. Brian assisted me with my choice of Oakley Square Back titanium frames. These guys made the whole process of choosing my progressive lenses and frames so easy. Dr. Phil conducted my eye test… Read more · 2
and was very professional. Thank you so much. Brian in the store was also very professional and stated my glasses would be ready with my new prescription progressive lenses in two weeks. Was so surprised to get them in just 6 days. and the quality is fantastic.
I wear glasses all the time and these Oakley glasses and top level lenses are simply fantastic.
Great service from the guys up at OPSM North Lakes. These guys were so busy on the day and Dr. Phil and Brian still made me feel welcome and the experience was so easy.
I highly recommend OPSM North lakes in Queensland. Awesome!

Very disappointed with my experience at OPSM George Street. I ordered a pair of Miu Miu frames online after being told by in-store staff that they were unavailable anywhere else. I then brought them into George Street to have lenses fitted. Initially, service was fine, but when I returned to collect the glasses, the frame had clearly been… Read more
damaged—one side was warped, the lens drooped, and they no longer sat straight on my face.
When I raised the issue, a staff member acknowledged something wasn’t right, but a second staff member, Nicolette, dismissed my concerns and claimed it was just an "optical illusion" caused by the tortoiseshell pattern. Despite the visible distortion, she refused to admit the frame had been damaged during lens fitting and offered only a store credit for the lenses. No replacement, no ownership of the damage—just pressure to accept faulty glasses.
Thankfully, I later visited OPSM Macquarie St where Rosa and Anna were incredibly professional. They confirmed the frame had been warped and took steps to escalate the issue. I'm still waiting on a proper resolution, but the contrast in service between the two stores was stark.
This whole situation has been frustrating and disappointing, especially from a brand that positions itself as a premium eyewear retailer. The lack of accountability from George Street OPSM is unacceptable, and I wouldn’t recommend the store based on this experience.
I'm still waiting on an update from the Store Manager/Customer Service and this review is subject to change if I am given the appropriate solution.
Hi Pauline, We thank you for sharing your recent… Read more
Very bad customer care – Delivery was delayed. Had to do several calls to find out where are my glasses. Still waiting. While waiting I moved to a different suburb, so now have to waste 3 hours going to the shop to pick up the glasses when ready. When I asked them to redirect to a closer branch or my address I was told I have to pay for delivery which is ridiculous since… Read more
it is not me who delayed the delivery
Updated:
So I contacted the OPSM store and agreed to pay for delivery (whatever). The only available payment option that they gave was to tell them by card details over the phone which I obviously denied. It is very frustrating to see a company encouraging non secure policies which can easily result in data leaks and money loss.
Even better on Friday my wife drove to the store to pick up the glasses and she was there at 17:05 and the store was already closed. And the working hours of the store on that day was until 17:30. So great - 80km to drive, 2 hours of time killed and still no glasses.
When I asked about it I was told that the shop was opened but an employee had a short break and since her or him was the only person there - doors were locked. I highly doubt that was the case to be honest. Attaching couple of pictures - you be the judge: The first is a screenshot of me communicating with my wife when she was there. She tried to call me at 17:08 but only reached me at 17:15 so she was there all the time and shop was still locked. And on another picture you can see that doors have been locked and lights were off. So taking such a long break just before closing the shop and shutting off all the lights just doesn't sound very true. If its short break (which it wasn't since my wife were there for at least 15 min) - why switching off all the lights
Anyway later I was contacted by employee and it was suggested that I make a payment over a bank transfer (duh - why you couldn't do it from beginning and asked for my card details). Since I wanted my glasses (it was my frames so getting refund was not the option) I agreed. Paid on May 7. They gave it to Team Global Express and they supposed to arrive in 1-3 business day. I was not provided with tracking number (I could as, but I gave up - I can't control everything). Waited till May 13 - no glasses still. Send email asking where the heck are they. Was given with tracking number and it shown as delivered on May 9. Wow. Just wow. So now after 1 month I still have no idea where my glasses are - I paid 290$ for nothing and they also lost my frames that my wife chose for me.
Two words - ridiculous incompetence.
Contacting consumer affairs for consultation. To be continued. Was delaying publication since was hoping to receive and forget the whole experience. Well doesn't look its possible
Update:
Contacted delivery company and they said that provided address was different. I check the email that I have sent to OPSM and it has a correct address. So OPSM screwed up my address somehow. Amateurs

Went to OPSM in December 2025 to get a pair of prescription sunglasses. If this review was about the staff in the store it would be 5 stars. They have been great. But this review is about the company as a whole. I am still waiting for my glasses. It… Read more
is now February 2026. No one can seem to tell me where they are. I was promised that the state manager and regional manager would contact me but they have not. They don’t even communicate with the staff in the store. Happy to take my money, ( paid in full) not happy to supply a product No offer of compensation. No support. Do not use OPSM! Glad I had a pair of glasses I can use while I continue to wait.
Follow-up · So to respond to the questions asked above…. The glasses were ordered on 8th Dec. I expected them before Christmas 2025. The Lab is still making them I am told. In reality I don’t think they will ever be made. OPSM have reimbursed me the money I paid. No one seems to say why they take so long, only that they are still being made.

I have been going to OPSM Morley for approx 24yrs and I find them helpful, friendly and professional. I'm very happy with this store and the people in it. Thankyou for being great Show details · 1
Follow-up · I recently returned because I couldn't get used to bi focal glasses. They sat me down and changed my glasses for me so I have 2 separate pairs now. Nothing was to much trouble for them and service is always with a smile. I'll always return to them as they are always willing to help and make things easier for me. I find the service excellent
Staff very helpful, however on the fourth visit to collect two new pairs of glasses the new prescription was still not correct, and in fact worse than the 10 year old ones that I had. The staff seemed unable to correct the lenses and offered a refund of the $1,000, which I accepted. Show details
Follow-up · Yes, my old prescription was checked. The problem with the 'new' lenses was that they did not give me any clearer vision than my existing glasses. I was asked to take the new glasses and try them for a few days. The right lens had a very narrow field of vision. If you moved your eye slightly to the right or left you went out of focus. Not an ideal… Read more

I had such a great experience at OPSM Charlestown Square, mainly thanks to Rod. He was incredibly kind, patient, and genuinely helpful from start to finish.

Opsm Cranbourne is a relatively small store with an excellent range of glasses and I was told by the staff member looking after me that the store at Chadstone had a much larger range if I couldn't find something. I like that it is a smaller store than the competition at Cranbourne Park Shopping Centre, the environment is calmer and more personal.… Read more
The service is excellent and the time from order to supply is quicker than the competition. I bought prescription transitional lens eye glasses and prescription sunglasses. As I am a RACV member there is 20% off the lenses and 50% off the second frames. This makes it price competitive with the competition. I highly recommend going to them.

My recent visit to OPSM in George Street Sydney was exceptional. My Optomitrist Helen Yin was fantastic as always and Donna who helped me to select two new pairs of glasses was also fantastic.

I wish I had read reviews before I booked my contact lens consult. They bulk billed with Medicare and then wanted to charge me for the consult on top. Tried to make me feel like they were doing me a favour and I my time in the end. Wish I’d have gone elsewhere, which I’m going to have to do anyway.

Absolute worst experience. They got my prescription wrong multiple times (took an optometrist filling in from another store to notice and fix). This impacted my glasses and contact lense trials. I’d been in multiple times for the contacts. Once my prescription was fixed, I asked for it to order elsewhere. I was not allowed this until (another)… Read more
aftercare appointment. This was frustrating as I didn’t have the time to keep going in to store. I then lost one of the trial contacts and they told me they’d have to order a new trial pair for an aftercare and still couldn’t give me the prescription. Nearly a month later I call to check, they tell me they did have them (no one rang me and told me) but have now lost them after moving stores. For the second time, I asked for a manager to ring me and for the second time no one did. I gave up and will be going elsewhere. What a joke for a more expensive optometrist. Avoid at all costs.

At a regular eye test, the optometrist Kevin Han at Warringah Mall OPSM failed to explain that my new prescription would only work for close-up reading, not everyday office use like my previous glasses. Based on this, I ordered new glasses elsewhere and found them unusable for daily work. When I returned to inquire as to why the prescription was… Read more
so different, Kevin Han was blunt and rude. He dismissed my concerns by saying that "once you turn 40, your eyesight will change anyway and this prescription will work", and insisted the prescription was correct rather than acknowledging the lack of explanation or impact. I was shocked by his comments.
This was unprofessional and disrespectful. I won’t be returning and would not recommend OPSM or Kevin Han to anyone.

later I go in to pick up the glasses but now they wanted to hoodwink me into paying an extra $150 on top of what I was quoted, the store "manager" excepted the original error was the store's mistake but still insisted I pay extra for the change over, I left without the glasses and a bad feeling about the way you run your business, a complete waste of time and effort for me.

Went for an eye test, then picked out new frames. Went to OPSM because I was able to get 20% off with my RAA. I need multifocals. They told me $765 with my RAA discount, over $850 without. Went to the Optical Superstore and got the same looking frames, about the same price as the ones I picked at OPSM and the price was $430. Show details

Be very, very careful of the vision plan. A total cost of $975 with $315 paid up front magically became a total of $1320 owing. After paying $55 a month for 8 months ($440) we still owe $880. The $315 upfront has not been deducted. They are claiming we agreed to a cost of $660 per pair for 2 pairs of glasses.

pretty much useless. I can’t read a book or phone lying flat on my desk; I certainly can’t see a thing of my computer screen. So this is a disaster. I saw OPSM staff today. They were good enough to take the time to chat with me – thanks for that – but literally shrugged their shoulders: I had the script filled with someone else so what could they possible do seemed to be the gist of it. I agreed I would need to pay in part for new lenses but that OPSM also bore a partial responsibilty for giving me a script that is pretty much useless. Apparently, they don’t agree. They did say they would contact the store manager though they don’t know who that is. I encourage people to think twice about getting lenses fullfilled overseas, and if you think you can trust your optomistrist to help you well think again. It turns out that in the notes from my last eye assessment with OPSM there is mention of an adjustment (something about 2 steps, 4 steps – I don’t know, I’m not an optometrist) and this information wasn’t forthcoming when I asked for my script. Anyway, lesson learned. Be careful. *I will lodge a complatint with NSW Fair Trading; this might not amount to much but feedback on Product Review, TrustPilot and others don’t make me feel quite so powerless. And Yes, I accept responsibility too, but not completely. I have tried to stick to the facts and remove all emtion. Thanks Mark Roberts OPSM has all my personal details and you can contact them to clarify things, of course. Received a call saying that a manager would likely call a week from now - not good enough - I'll change my review to 'in mediation' to published if I can.
Follow-up · You've asked for a follow-up? I'll keep it simple. OPSM gave me a script for reading. The problem is we have a different definition of what reading means.

I have been a OPSM customer for over 25 years. I was happy to spend more as their glasses were much better quality, and were very resistant to scratching. However the last 2 times I have purchased glasses, they have scratched easily and were frankly crap. I asked if they had changed their lens, but was ensured they were the same. The lens are clearly different to my previous glasses, not worth the $800+ at all.

Been using OPSM since 2021 but Hetal, the Store Manager was so far, the best in customer service in dealing with us. She made sure that we were attended to throughout our visit that day. She knew the product we were buying and made sure we chose the best glasses for the shape of our faces. Visit OPSM Brimkbank and find out yourselves :) Cheers Show reply
