I had a great experience with Belinda.The eye check-up was extremely thorough, and she took the time to explain everything clearly at each step. I really appreciated her patience, attention to detail, and genuine care. I left feeling confident about my eye health and with the perfect prescription. Highly recommend to anyone looking for a professional and caring optometrist!

We had a great experience with optometrist Claris and the team. I was a bit nervous about my teenage child learning to wear contact lenses, but Claris and her staff were incredibly patient, kind, and encouraging throughout the process. They took the time to make sure he felt comfortable and confident putting them in and taking them out. It made such a difference having someone knowledgeable and supportive guiding him. Highly recommend for parents and children!
Wen Di
Very patient and professional service. Friendly and no hard selling. Gave me ample time to try different specs. Also very accurate prescription - comfortable to wear and can see clearly eventhough it's new specs with new power. I didn't really need adjustment time for it.

Have a pair of old sunglasses and was unable to make it straight. Chanced upon Capitol Optical and decided to try my luck. Was ready to get rejected since I didn’t get my sunglasses from there but Lee Choo not only help me to adjust it back to it original form, she offered to tighten it for me seeing how loose it is. Wanted to pay for the service but she did it purely out of goodwill. Thank you, Lee Choo for the great service. Truly appreciate it!

I've been a loyal customer at Capitol Junction 8 for my contact lens needs, but my latest visit exceeded expectations. Claris and her team is amazing, patiently guiding me through an eye check-up to address my farsightedness and shortsightedness concerns. My husband also received personalized advice on finding the perfect glasses. In Singapore, where genuine customer service can be hard to find, Claris and Team shine as a rare exception. Highly recommended!

I patronized Capitol Optical since 2019. Recently, my previous spec scratch and mark on my lens. I can't see it clearly. I asked for Claris because she is patient and calm person. She recommends me an affordable lens and new spec frame within my budget. She also checked on my eyesight as well. She mentioned my long sight increase. Overall, my experience is good with Capitol Optical esp. Claris. She will listen to her customer, recommend something within customer budget. Thanks Claris. My new spec that i am wearing make my eyes not tired and can see clearly esp my long sight. A big Thanks.

Claris was very patient and thorough with checking my eyes and ensuring that my glasses would be comfortable to wear. I had an issue with the degree of the lenses and she very promptly helped me to rectify the issue! I have been making my glasses here since I was young, would highly recommend this shop!

Very helpful when I was choosing a new pair of spectacles. Since I needed it urgently, I also requested to collect them during the festive period, and the team was very dedicated in expediting and providing status updates! Great experience overall.

Have been to many optical shops since I wear spectacles at 8 years old. Like to patronise those optical shops who don’t anyhow recommend. Capitol Optical @ J8 is the one I would recommend. I have been with Capitol Optical @ J8 since they operated. From myself to my husband and to my child, we patronised Capitol Optical. Recently my child went to do his 2nd eye check up after 3 years. Thanks to Claris recommendation on the lens for my boy 3 years ago, my boy’s myopia only increased by 50 on his left eye only. I would said Claris is the person who you can look for. She is patient with children and her service after sale is good. 👍

I have been to many optical shops since I started wearing spectacles at 8 years old. I like to patronize optical shops that don't just make unnecessary recommendations. Capitol Optical @ J8 is the one I would recommend. I have been with Capitol Optical @ J8 since they opened. From myself to my husband and my child, we have all patronized Capitol Optical. Recently, my child had his second eye check-up after three years. Thanks to Claris's recommendation for the lens for my son three years ago, his myopia only increased by 50 in his left eye. I would say Claris is the person you should look for. She is patient with children, and her after-sales service is good. 👍
