Terrible treatment by the optometrist ~ she ended up pulling out a lot of my eyelashes with one of the tests she did. She didn't inform me ahead of time what she was going to be doing. It was the worst experience I have ever had at Specsavers.
I ended up complaining to the corporate office about my treatment.

I went in for my glasses check up and they kindly checked my hearing also. I had forgotten that 10 years ago an Audiologist had recommended hearing aids, so I wasn't surprised when they recommended that I speak to the Audiologist post my test. I got hearing aids. Both Columba and Maliah are fantastic and professional people. They guided me through the process, made sure that all of my questions were answered. The outcome is day and night, I love my new hearing aids, I can hear all of those sounds that were missing! I highly recommend Specsavers Ormiston Audiology as the Audiologists of choice!
