Post on the health board.
Some opticians get on there.0 -
Hi,
As has been said (thanks wealdroam) the Health Board may be a better starting point for your query, so I'll move the post across.
Good luck

Have you actually asked for a refund? What did they say?0
-
You should be able to get a refund. I have worn glasses for years and have bad eyesight and my local opticians are very good. I picked a frame once and when it came back it looked awful with my lens and I went back and told them and got a refund and picked another style.
Go for smaller frames with having strong lens as this helps reduce the weight of the lens.
Hope you get a refund.0 -
Definatly ask for a refund. You need to be happy with the glasses especially being so short sighted.
Can I advise you not to go to Vision Express/Asda ect..they will struggle with your prescription. Stick with independent opticians.0
