About Specscart Walkden Store
The very first Specscart store! Although we moved Specscart Walkden to 4x bigger premises in the same shopping centre in 2021, we received the former retail space after winning the Albert Gubay Award in 2017. And that’s what started this ambitious journey. The community in Walkden supported our young start-up when nobody knew us. That gave us the knowledge, confidence and experience to expand further and include more services like Fast Dispatch and Free Eye Tests.

This is what our customers have to say about their Specscart Eye Test Experience
Very impressed with the optician and staff
Very impressed with the optician. A very thorough, and informative eye test. Excellent customer service from the Women at the Walkden branch. Thank you.
Best opticians ever
Absolutely fantastic service from start to finish at the Walkden branch. Very thorough eye test but more than that it felt very personal and friendly, with everything explained well. My prescription had changed so needed new glasses. There was absolutely no pressure to buy glasses there and then. I went away and came back a week later. I had an idea of the glasses I wanted but I wasn't 100% sure about them. I was told to pick all the glasses I liked and we narrowed them down to 2 pairs. The assistant then suggested a pair that I hadn't even considered. These fit perfectly and looked the best out of all the glasses I tried. I ordered these and have just collected them and once again the service was friendly and impeccable. There was no push to leave a review I actually had to ask if I could, the assistant said it seemed "needy" for him to ask for a review. I can't recommend this place enough I have never been happier buying new glasses. Thank you to all of the team at Specscart

friendly, helpful, quick and affordable
Went to specscart Walkden for an eye test, I knew I needed glasses before I went in. The test was really easy and quick. I was introduced to Paul after my test with my prescription. After 30 minutes, I picked my glasses and the order was placed. I got the email to say they are ready to collect. I dropped in and Helen adjustment them and I was on my way. I didn't get the name of the lady who did my test, but her, Paul and Helen were really friendly and helpful. Great service from start to finish.
Walkden branch, brilliant service all round
Visited the Walkden branch with my partner for my first eye test in 7 years. The service was great, the staff were fantastic and they were thorough. My specs were supposed to take 7-10 days but arrived 3 days later and my partner’s specs arrived the following day! I have to say that they are the best specs I’ve ever had, as far as clarity goes. Would definitely use again.

Why is it Important to do the Regular Eye Test?
The eye test is necessary for detecting the potential eyesight issue, such as myopia or farsighted, which could lead to headaches and eye strain. Especially nowadays we are over-exposed under the screens that increase the risks of eyesight problem and the blurry visions. Therefore, the regular eye test is suggested to prevent the deterioration of eyesight issues. Moreover, eye check can do more than looking into your eye health - it could also detect other serious health problems from the early stage. During the comprehensive eye test, the optician can also observe the possible stroke, cancer and chronic disease such as diabetes, hypertension etc. Therefore, the routine eye test is important to give you the understanding of your overall health status. Though it is recommended by NHS that having an eye exam for every two years, but we suggest that you can have your eye test every 6 months, or whenever you find the sight changes.

A list of medication history will be helpful if applied.
