Singapore questions

Choosing a shop here

What the ratings are, what this directory doesn't do, and what to ask before you book.

They're the public Google star ratings and review counts shown for each shop, collected when the listing was compiled. We don't write them, filter them or round them up.

They're snapshots. A shop can gain or lose reviews after we last checked, so for anything that matters, open the shop's own page or ring them.

Three things: is the test free with a purchase or charged separately, does it include an eye-health check or only a prescription, and what does the test cost on its own if you buy your glasses elsewhere.

No. There is no advertising tier and no sponsored placement. Listings are compiled from public sources, and position in a list is not for sale.

Before you book

What should an eye test cost?

Prices here vary as much as anywhere, and a shop's quoted price tells you what it's actually selling. The guide sets out the real bands and the three questions that reveal which one you're walking into.
