Excellent service and help as always. I always leave feeling confident and happy with my visit.
Great opticians and friendly staff. Went in for an eye check, arrived early and fortunately didn’t have to wait to long to be seen (no pun intended). Had not been to this opticians in two decades yet was amazed to see they still had my basic information on record when booking my appointment (albeit a bit out of date). Will definitely be going back (hopefully a bit more frequently than I have been in recent years!)
Sharp and precise diagnosis.
HMD have been my opticians for at least 20 years now and I cannot fault them. Just a few examples of their exceptional service – During COVID my specs fell from he head and I stood on them! They replaced my designer frames and lenses free of charge (all without face to face contact) &. The local chemist no longer administers eye ointments without prescription for minor eye infections. I contacted HMD regarding this because I didn’t want my eye infection to get worse. I was seen that same morning and left with the necessary prescription for the chemist. Just recently I needed minor eye surgery for a protein build up on my lens. I was referred to the eye clinic by HMD and have had the successful surgery. The opticians are thorough and professional and I’m happy to write this review to highlight their great work. Keep it up guys. X
Had some pain and swelling from my eye. I called in the morning and was given an appointment promptly. I’m very grateful to be seen and impressed with the care given
I and the rest of my family have been getting our eyes tested here for more than 25 years – think that says it all really!
A great opticians which I’ve visited 3 times in the last week for myself and my two kids – 10 and 5. We saw 2 different opticians, both of whom took time to explain the process and made my children feel very comfortable. Thank you!
I went to Hughes Macdonald and Davidson for an eye test on 15 April. This was the first time I had been to HMD Opticians, and I found them to be very friendly and professional. The experience was excellent, and I won’t hesitate to go back to them for an eye examination next time. I can’t recommend them highly enough. Definitely worth 5 stars!
Very efficient and welcoming. I have been to HMD several times and been seen by different opticians. They have all been very efficient, knowledgeable, effective communicators and so friendly and personable. The front of house assistants are also very knowledgeable and efficient, helping to make major choices so much easier. I’m not really one to leave reviews but I felt that I needed to share my experiences to maybe give help, confidence and encouragement to others.
After getting poked in the eye by my toddler, I phoned to see if I could get someone to look due to the worsening pain. Very friendly staff on the phone, who managed to fit me in, despite it being a busy day. Optometrist was helpful and efficient, and recommended treatment to help after having a look in my eye. I will be using them again in the future for any further eye appointments and couldn’t recommended more highly.
Best opticians in Inverurie. Been going to HMD many year’s and customer satisfaction/aftercare is fantastic.
Really nice members of staff and very helpful, especially for a first timer like myself, would definitely recommend this branch to other people, friends etc
It was a pleasant experience from the time I entered the opticians till the time I picked up my spectacles. The optician was so patient with me and explained everything in detail. Also plenty assistance was given in choosing new spectacles. Excellent service.
I’ve used Hughes MacDonald and Davidson for over 30 years and now my family do too.
Excellent experience my Husband, 3 children aged 5, 9 and 11 and myself all got our eyes checked yesterday. My Youngest child is a typical boy and can’t sit still asks lots of questions and the patience and care we received was above and beyond questions were explained very simple for him to understand and nothing was too much. My middle child is autistic and had no issues at any point and left happy.
Friendly and efficient. I came as an emergency as my own optician was unavailable, and felt very comfortable and reassured.
I have went here for over 35 years. I would never go anywhere else. My children went when they were young and now go as adults. I would highly recommend Hughes MacDonald and Davidson for a friendly professional service.

Amazing experience with my 4 year old. The optician had so much patience, absolutely brilliant with children. The entire team were so friendly and helpful which made the appointment stress-free, quite the feat with a 4 year old! My daughter is very excited to go back to get her glasses!

Just had my first ever eye test. Excellent service friendly staff, highly recommend.
The service is outstanding. From front desk to specialist staff, everyone strives to look after the customer. The standard of professionalism is consistently high.
I had new ‘floaters’ in one eye. I was triaged immediately over the phone and had an appointment arranged for me within 24hrs of the call. The appointment really put my mind at rest that this was a normal symptom of aging. Excellent service!
I was in for a retest as I wasn’t happy with the test I had elsewhere three weeks previously, it was a pleasant experience and the outcome was exactly as I thought, the first test had not been at all accurate. I will now be using for my regular yearly test. Thank you
I have been a customer for 21 years. The service has always been first class, polite, friendly, welcoming and personal. An appointment is like visiting old friends. I wouldn’t go anywhere else.

Always a pleasure and never a problem! From repair of specs to diagnosis of eye problems and check up. Thank you very much !!

Our optician was excellent in Inverurie. I didn’t catch his name but he tested my daughter’s, aged 7, eyes. He was so through and had a warm, gentle, friendly manner. She thought he was ‘funny and lovely’ to quote her. Everything ran on time. The ladies at the front desk were welcoming too. Highly recommend.

Very good optician who explained everything well and sent me off to ARI. All good now and grateful.
Excellent service from a kind and sensitive optician, Andrew. I came away feeling relaxed and happy which considering I’m totally squeamish about eyesight is a great result. Strongly recommend this professional and sympathetic organisation.
The service I received from making the appointment to the time of collecting my glasses was exceptional. The staff were extremely friendly and helpful as if they were like a family run affair. Nothing was ever too much bother and could not except to find as good service anywhere else. Will definitely use here for all future eye care.
I have the best time going to the opticians, not sure it is common to get bad news and enjoy the experience. We do in Peterhead.
We are treated like a people with personalities and interesting lives, not just customers with spending money. Try It..
My child absolutely loves his eye test appointments here. Nothing is ever too much trouble and everyone is so friendly and welcoming. We have been going there ever since he first needed glasses over 6 years ago and we wouldn’t go anywhere else. Great service and super helpful.
A very fast and friendly service and the Optometrist very kindly give me gel for my dry eyes which helped greatly.
Absolutely fabulous service. Have been using the same contact lenses for years and despite regular check-ups at a high street optician I have never before been offered alternatives to suit my exact needs!! Now I have some which correct my astigmatism and what a difference!
Fantastic experience at Hughes, Macdonald & Davidson Opticians this week. Really easy to make an appointment, good and personalised reminders for my appointment and excellent attention by everyone. I would like to make a special mention to Christine. Christine was really professional, really friendly and explained every step of the appointment, showed care and made me feel comfortable during the session. I can’t recommend enough to use Hughes, Macdonald & Davidson.
The Opticians in this practice are absolutely first class in my experience. I would thoroughly recommend them. So caring, knowledgeable and respectful.
First class service and friendly staff. Thanks to Alan and the team for keeping an eye on my peepers for years.
I would like to thank everyone from the bottom of my heart for being so quick to help when I’ve had problems with my eyes lately – you’re all so kind and so helpful! A special thanks to Richard for being so wonderful, and so patient with me! I’ve been with HM&D for 31 years and would never want to go elsewhere. Thank you again
Always a pleasure to visit and be seen by kind and helpful people
I went because I had something in my left eye.
I was seen and the optician found a couple of my eye lashes were rubbing on my eye ball.
He removed them in 2 minutes
Very helpful and friendly
Thanks so much.
Very comprehensive eye test at HMD Banchory. Carried out to the highest level of professionalism, thank you.
As am not a patient of the opticians the service I got was first class, so I would like to become a patient
On behalf of my wife Kathleen who recently had unexpected problems with her eyesight. Having called and explained she was seen the same day on two occasions. Various tests were conducted and she was reassured there was no connection to other existing health problems. Can’t thank Stuart enough for his diligence and reassurance
Prompt appts and sorted out any worries I had following a cataract op. Nothing too much hassle
I would highly rate and recommend HMD Peterhead . Very friendly and knowledgeable staff, who give 100% with a no problem attitude. I phoned in with a problem and was given an appointment the same day.
Another visit to HMD with our now 10 year old, this time for a contact lens trial. Staff were all exceptional as always, giving a warm greeting and showing great patience with my daughter. Absolutely first class every time.
Very professional staff, made to feel welcome. Great help yo choose frames and great prices

First class customer service, got an appointment within an hour, discovered a torn retina and got me an appointment at the eye clinic same day.
I have always received excellent, efficient and friendly service from HM&D. (I did once try somewhere else but only once – then came running. So considerate and attentive, just a pleasure to visit. Happy to give 5 stars,
My appointment at Hughes Macdonald & Davidson was on time I did not have to wait. The staff were very friendly and professional and there is a great selection of specs.
I left with a good understanding of my eye problems and possible treatments and outcomes. Wish I’d come here earlier.
Excellent service from professional and friendly staff, would highly recommend.
I found myself needing an eye examination and expected to purchase new spectacles. The examination was conducted by a very pleasant young man. He was very thorough and explained everything as it went along. I have previously had eye surgery for a cataract and as it turned out will need surgery again in my other eye. However it will not be necessary for several months or longer. So he advised that there was currently little point in changing my glasses now as after the cataract operation I will need a new prescription. Everything was fully explained and I will be monitored and recalled in a few months when the operation can be booked. First class service and no charge. I unreservedly recommend this optician.
My visit to Hughes, MacDonald & Davidson was very pleasant and efficient. The gentleman that examined my eyes was very good, he explained everything as he did all his tests. I was very impressed.
Fantastic service, with friendly and helpful staff. Great prices too. Cannot recommend highly enough.
After a long time putting off an eye test and making do with cheap off the shelf glasses I finally gave in! I have to say that everyone was kind, friendly and efficient. The test was thorough and very interesting. I can’t wait to get new glasses and start to see things clearly again. Highly recommended company!
I’ve been a client of HM&D for several years now and wouldn’t go anywhere else. It’s always an enjoyable experience, very professional but friendly too. There’s never a hard sell if new frames are needed and prices are very reasonable. I trust them explicitly.
Very good service the staff was excellent thanks
Staff are attentive and well aware of individual needs. Results are presented in an easy to understand fashion. Premises are clean and tidy and laid out to help customers
Great service, caring, professional & consistently great service!
As my appointment was partially medical, I was treated straight away. The staff were efficient, courteous and friendly. Thank you to everyone.
The staff were amazing. Very helpful and knowledgeable. They took the time to understand my complex needs. Would highly recommend
Personal service that you don’t receive in the bigger chains. Thoroughly recommended.
Had suffered with an extremely painful eye over the weekend and phoned first thing Monday morning and got an appt 9.40am. Excellent service and was so grateful not to have to wait any longer and Terri quickly put my mind at ease and gave me cream which has really helped! Ever so grateful!

I recently attended for an emergency eye check. I was warmly welcomed into the premises and treated courteously by each member of staff. Teri examined my eyes thoroughly and explained very clearly what she was about to do and why. Her manner was very respectful and empathetic. She was able to advise me on what I should fo next. I would certainly recommend HMD to family and friends.
First class service from the team. Siobhan the optician has been incredibly helpful over the last few weeks. Will definitely be sticking with this company from now
Been going to this is opticians since I was 6, great place lovely staff 🙂
I have been a customer for 21 years. The service has always been first class, polite, friendly, welcoming and personal. An appointment is like visiting old friends. I wouldn’t go anywhere else.
The staff are all lovely , my son and I had a lovely experience. I was quite nervous as having the same optician since I was 12 years old. Within minutes of arriving I was put at ease with the staff. Now I have a new optician whom I will keep and book for everything. Absolutely brilliant.
Excellent well established Optician. I have been visiting many years. Professional, friendly and trustworthy all round. I have also visited with my grandchild. He can’t wait to go back!
First rate. Obliging, sympathetic, helpful, thoroughly professional. Thank you.
Warm, friendly staff who know what their doing & are always extremely patient. I would highly recommend
I’ve recently had a problem with an eye and from the first phone call I’ve had nothing but excellent care from everyone at the Turriff branch . I’ve seen 4 different opticians in 10 days and everyone has made me feel I’m in very safe hands . Totally recommend anyone to try HMD if you need an optician.
Great service as normal. Polite, courteous and helpful staff. Best optician in town. Keep up the excellent work
Had a fab experience at the Inverurie branch with my children getting their eyes tested. The optician was very thorough and informative and was also super at interacting with my children. Definitely excellent service!
The Turriff branch gives excellent service and they are nice people will go back in the future
My first experience in this day and age in getting my eyes tested and it was a pleasant experience carried out most professionally. I was made welcome and put at ease from the start and would recommend this company to everyone
I experienced a very efficient and professional service. I felt informed from the information and advice I received relating to my eyesight and also what expect in the future. I am very happy with my glasses which I collected within a week.
Absolutely brilliant service, attending Optician rechecked my eyes and there was an improvement from my previous visit, so will continue with my eye drops to combat dry eyes. Got fitted for replacement spectacles, thank you very much.
Very friendly and professional service. I felt very confident that the eye sight tests were thorough and well explained. Great service
A big thank you to Lesley , who not only went the extra mile , went beyond ! Lesley had to take a Special optical exam , and pass 100% to meet the needs of our son’s need for the latest cutting edge optical eye ware . A big thank you to John and Lesley XX
Had an eye problem late on a Friday afternoon at the start of holiday weekend. The optician saw me immediately and put my mind at rest that it was not a serious issue. Thanks very much.
Staff were amazing with my daughter, made her feel at ease when she had to have drops into her eyes, highly recommend.
Very thorough and informative, came away feeling positive
Saw Christine. Very friendly, great with the kids and explained things clearly.
I highly recommend Hughes, Macdonald & Davidson. I have had an ongoing issue with my eye for several months and the level of care and support has been excellent; Stuart has been exceptional. I find the staff friendly and knowledgable.
Friendly, efficient. Good choice of frames. Recommend.
All staff were very nice and helpful new optician was lovely as well and made sure I understood everything she explained to me.
Can’t give anything but positive review … as always, ALL the staff are really helpful, friendly and so easy to talk too. Even with my eye issues over the years, I get nothing but 110% from them each and every time with everything fully explained to me so i know exactly what’s going on. Absolutely the best optician’s I’ve ever been with 🙂
Absolutely wonderful staff here! My appointment was on time and I was talked through my results properly and not rushed into picking frames for my glasses. Very professional and welcoming.
Great friendly professional service as always from Andrew , it was also my husbands first visit and again totally delighted with excellent service and friendliness of all staff.
Excellent visit for contact lens and glasses check, Terri was very professional and thorough and the rest of the staff are very helpful, excellent service.
I was in a lot of pain with an eye infection and called the team at Banchory (even though they are not my own opticians). Richard seen me within the hour and organised an appt at the hospital straight away for me, after his own examination. The team were quick, helpful and very understanding. A lovely team who give great service.
Got booked in quick with an eye issue and the service was first class as always. Wouldn’t go anywhere else.
Highly satisfied with the friendly approach from all from walking through the door to departure However most important was the high standard of technical care and understanding from John Hughes supported by very up to date diagnostic equipment that have helped with an early catch with a potentially serious concern for my eye sight Thanks to Elaine for peripheral vision check.
Very efficient and friendly staff thank you.
I had excellent service from Hughes, Macdonald and Davidson. The staff are friendly and explained everything they were going to do. I would be happy to recommend them to family and friends.
Prompt and efficient. Siobhan (optician) was very welcoming, explained what she was doing and what was found. Very thorough. No pressure to buy – very little change in my prescription! Will definitely be back and will recommend to friends and family.
Fitted my baby in when he had leaking eyes, although fully booked, made room for him. Alan was brilliant with him too. Definitely a first class service
I had a great experience as usual today at the opticians in Turriff. They had 2 emergencies this afternoon and kept me informed while i waited for my appointment . They carried the emergencies very efficiently and I was examined quickly and hardly lost any time at all.
Excellent service delighted to be able to read a book again . Would recommend and will visit again
Very efficient and friendly service for an emergency appointment. Staff were caring and efficient.
Been with them for around a decade now, they’ve noticed important things beyond just my annual prescription check-up regarding my eye health and advised accordingly. Appreciate their services going the extra mile and the convenience of their location.
Very friendly, very helpful, makes everything easy to understand, and listen to what you have to say, one of the best options if not the best, highly recommend you go here and nowhere else.
Very professional and explained every aspect of the eye test as we went through it. Would highly recommend.
Receptionists very friendly and welcoming. Optician was amazing with my 3 year old who was getting her eyes tested. Made her feel very relaxed and an enjoyable experience. Would recommend. Whole experience was really good!
A really good experience, conducted with courtesy, humour and obvious expertise from a well integrated team. Thank you.
A great service after recent eye surgery. From making the appointment to seeing Richard the optician – very reassuring.
Helpful, friendly and extremely competent staff. Very pleased that we chose this business and will continue to use them for all our optician needs.
Great service from the team in Banchory, I have been coming here since 2010 and they have never let me down.
Thanks to Teri, Linda & Lyn for the excellent professional work they do.

Very professional service. Taken on time and treated with care and respect. Thoroughly recommend this company.
All staff very polite even go the extra mile highly recommended.

I was very satisfied with the service And excellent attention I received from Margaret . Thanks

Great fast service as always, been for 3 pairs glasses now and my wife been 1 pair, so all good.

It’s always a pleasure coming along to an appointment at HMD opticians. The staff are always so friendly and welcoming and can’t do enough for you. Thank you!
First time back since Cov19. I was hesitant but they take hygiene very seriously. No browsers in the shop, one customer at a time, masks and screens. Appointment only.
Have been served by these lovely people since I was young and have never had anything but nice things to say about them. Lovely, friendly staff, lovely service, lovely and clean environment and large choice of specs. The opticians always make me feel at ease with friendly conversation and are swift and professional. Can’t recommend them more.
I found my visit extremely pleasant and relaxing. Everything is in place for keeping us safe during this difficult time. Well done to all staff and not forgetting the optician. See you in December

Professional service from an excellent company. Have used for many years and will use again. You will not be disappointed with the service.
My visit to HMD was both professional and sensitive. The young man who tested my eyes couldn’t have been more helpful or thorough, explaining everything to me as we went along. My first appointment since lockdown. I would thoroughly recommend HMD.
Had appointment Saturday 9th. First class service. First class treatment. Each and every one of the staff are amazing. Make you feel so comfortable all through appointment. Would highly recommend.
