Harborne is a vibe. It’s all indie coffee shops, delis that smell like heaven, and people who actually smile at you. You’re getting fish and chips after your eye test? Yes, please. Vision Express sits right in this happy, buzzy heart.
Pop in for an appointment. Then, pop out for a flat white. See? Life improvement in one trip. Your eyes get checked, your belly gets fed.
The Test That’s Actually Fun (No, Really)
Forget the dreaded “Is it better… or this?” drone. The optometrists here are actual humans. They joke. They laugh. They don’t judge if you squinted at a car number plate from two feet away.
They use a machine that puffs air at your eye. Blink! It’s silly. It’s quick. You get to say, “Wow, that’s weird.” And they’ll nod and agree. Instant bonding.
Fun fact: They check your peripheral vision by making you stare at a dot while lights flicker. You feel like a secret agent dodging laser beams. Mission: Eye Spy.
