Excellent helpful staff.

Was recommended Rawlings by a work colleague and am so glad I switched from my "high street" optician. Had a consultation with Simon who was very kind and professional, explaining everything to me. Did not feel at all rushed and felt listened to. Will continue all my eye care with Rawlings from now on. Their customer service is fantastic and all the members of the team are friendly.

Welcoming, spotless reception area. Very friendly reception staff. Optician friendly, attentive and knowledgeable. No pressure to buy glasses but good advice given.

Excellent service, made time to see me for two emergencies when they weren’t even my own optician - so impressed I have now moved all my eye care to them. Simon explains everything clearly and the dispensing optician was so helpful in finding me to find frames that were a little out of my comfort zone, which I love.

I attended Rawlings Opticians Purley on 13/3/25 under the Primary Eyecare scheme and saw optometrist Simon Callaghan. I was referred by my GP as my eye condition required expert examination and I have a long history of eye problems. I cannot speak highly enough of the service I received from Simon who saw me at short notice and gave me a complete eye examination and was able to furnish my GP with a comprehensive report on my eye condition and to recommend suitable medication. So a big thank you to Simon and the helpful reception staff and I recommend Rawlings to others. David Skingle.

I’ve been going to Rawlings at Purley for a few years now, they provide a great service. The ladies on reception are friendly and remember you face and name, which is nice. The opticians are very knowledgeable and thorough. In last couple of years I’ve had a few age related issues including torn retina and that’s lead to a recent serious eye surgery and they’ve helped and guided me through that. The eye scans they take and their ability o quickly show you comparisons with last years scans is very helpful. Special shout out to Dawne because she has a lovely smile.

Very efficient and friendly service. Nothing appeared to be too much trouble when explaining the eye test.

The optometrist was very friendly and thorough. He had some concerns about my left eye and referred me immediately to a local branch of Moorfields Eye Hospital, where I was diagnosed and successfully treated on the next working day. 5/5!

Friendly staff and great care from the highly experienced team. Would definitely recommend Rawlings if you are looking for an opticians in the Purley area.

Friendly, caring staff who take the time to ensure you fully understand every step of the scans / tests and answer any questions you have.

At Rawlings’ Purley branch, Simon quickly & accurately diagnosed a torn and detached retina. The urgent referral letter he gave me helped ensure I received prompt treatment. He explained everything very clearly to me.

I visited on the 21/01/25 as an emergency appointment from my gp, and all staff were absolutely amazing. The optician was incredible nice and patient with me explaining everything in detail taking his time. They even changed my appointment to a bit later cause i couldn't make it so early. Very friendly and professional. T.L

Having been in the optical business myself for over 40 years in the UK and (much) further afield, I feel I'm in a strong position to say, quite categorically, that you would be hard pressed to receive better service anywhere than that which I received at Rawlings in Purley. I was welcomed warmly by Matt when I arrived, and Simon's incredibly comprehensive exam was outstanding. Every step was explained fully, and the high-tech equipment is impressive, to say the least. I left feeling very much reassured and confident in his findings. Thank you so much!

I’ve been going to Rawlings, Purley for around 30 years and always found them helpful, professional and friendly. They were great with my children when they were small.

Had an OCT eye test with Simon Callaghan a few days ago. He is the best optometrist I have ever encountered. Knowledgeable, kind and empathetic. I felt assured, trusted his diagnosis, and felt so much better after my appointment. All the staff (manager and receptionists) are welcoming. They are The A Team!
