Dresden Vision provides excellent frames and delivers exceptional service. The staff here are so welcoming and friendly! My optician today was Jules, she guided me through what frames suit my face shape more to even suggesting new creative styles to enhance my look. I got gingerbread frames with oat milk arms, a combo I would've never thought of but I can't help other than being obsessed! They also helped curate suitable eye contacts for my boyfriend through their eye test service. Thank you Dresden Vision, you've left a lasting impression and I will be back again!! <3

Every colour of the rainbow is covered...and then some. As a marriage celebrant I have been wearing Dresden prescription glasses for years and testament to how good they are, I now have completed my set of every colour released and they are proudly displayed in style with their own frame and arms tower.

Simon is the best optometrist I've ever visited out of many. Very nice to speak with someone who technically explains your eye issues and the solutions, without fluff or upselling.

What an absolute find! I have tried most of the opticians on Main Street, but I give Dresden a 10 out of 10 in several categories: value for money, multifocal lenses that actually work, and—drum roll —great customer service, particularly from Colleen at Dresden West End in Brisbane. Your next call should be to Dresden. I’d give them 6 stars, not just 5!

I’ve been putting off getting new glasses for ages, but I’m glad I finally did. The optometrist was patient and thorough, took the time to explain the results and even gave me tips for dealing with eye strain from computer work.
