Post by: Nick on March 14, 2014, 11:04:30 AM: Eye test.

Blow air in my eyes: check
Take flash photos of my eyes: check
Get me counting dots: check
Decide on varifocals: check
Choose spec for second "free" pair: check

Boots give their frames names. Mine are called Ronnie rubschin:. I am getting two pairs rubschin:

I have to go back on the 25th and collect the two Ronnies rubschin:

Top tip at Boots: don't take the free second pair and the nice lady manager gives you cash back

Well it works for me and Mrs K anyway. Got £75 last two times
