Response from the owner:Thank you for taking the time to leave us such a nice review!
I attended Scrivens Opticians today with my grandfather for an eye test, and we had a fantastic experience.

Maria, the optometrist, was extremely helpful. She was very thorough and attentive and took the time to explain my grandfather’s eyesight issues clearly.

Harry was also extremely helpful when it came to choosing his glasses. He was patient and helped my grandfather try on several different frames until he found his favourite pair.

I made the team aware that my grandfather has Alzheimer’s dementia, and they were very understanding. They made sure to keep their instructions simple and easy for him to understand, which made the whole experience much more comfortable and pleasant for him.

Thank you so much to Maria and Harry for making his visit such a positive experience. We really appreciate the care and patience you both showed.
Response from the owner:Thanks again for taking the time to leave us this information about your recent visit. Take care!
Excellent customer service, staff where pleasant and helpful. Very attentive and attention to details. Relaxing atmosphere.
Response from the owner:Pauline Gunn, we're happy to hear you had such a positive experience with our team!
Great service. Parking always a premium, sadly. Friendly and always attentive. Thanks Harry 😊
Response from the owner:Thank you for taking the time to leave us a review.
Lovely people. Amazing with my 3 children ❤️
Response from the owner:Thanks again for your kind words, come back and see us anytime!
I’ve had glasses for 13+ years and this has to be the best opticians I’ve been to. They have clear communication and great frame choice.
Response from the owner:Nadim, thank you so much for the positive review!

He soon met his wife, and the couple moved to New Haven in Connecticut. Bernard eventually started making shirts for other labels, and became highly skilled at this. He then went on to label his shirts with a diamond \u2018G\u2019 and suddenly everyone wanted the \u2018G-shirt\u2019.\r\n\r\nIt wasn\u2019t until 1949 in which the label \u2018GANT\u2019 was established, when Bernard\u2019s two sons returned home from active duty in World War 2 and joined the family business. The sons went on to launch their own label, GANT of New Haven. The GANT shirt was very successful and went down in fashion history as the first American clothing company to introduce the button-down collar, a style originally from England.\r\n\r\nGANT started with a shirt and is now a global lifestyle brand with 600 stores in over 60 countries, featuring a full clothing range for men, women and children, fragrances, accessories, footwear, home wear and eyewear.\r\n\r\nThe GANT frame collection is available at Scrivens Opticians, and includes classic and modern pieces with the innovative, unique style of the GANT brand.
