loren wiener27 Oct 2022Hard to get too excited about an Optometrist when you are almost 63, especially in my case never worn glasses before. Just going in for the regular eye test. However, if the Optometrist is a professional optimist as well as in Dr Ali and staff @ Lynbrook Optical in SE Melbourne, happens to be near great food, coffee and loads of free parking, then I know I won't go anywhere else.. and they bulk bill.. yay

pmarilag27 Sep 2022The best optical clinic/store I've dealt with in my 30 years of wearing eyeglasses. Dr Ali is very knowledgeable and thorough in examining my complicated eyes. Took time to listen to my problem of having just one eyeglasses that is multifocal, can be used for both computer work and driving, shopping etc. And he gave it to me! Now I got a very stylish Calvin Klein multifocal, transition eyeglasses that I can wear everywhere. Soo happy. Thank you so much!
