Lenskart Hougang Mall is a branch of the direct-to-consumer eyewear chain, where frames are sold at low prices and the eye tests are done in store. It is on the first level of Hougang Mall on Hougang Avenue 10, and it sits among several other opticians in the same mall, so people often compare frames and prices before choosing.
Visitors say the staff are helpful and set out what to expect clearly, and several say they were looked after even on a busy day. One reviewer came to redeem free frames from a running promotion, and a 1 for 1 frame deal comes up often in what people write. Customers also use the store for spectacle adjustments and repairs, including cleaning and fixing glasses bought elsewhere in the chain. One visitor felt the service was better here than at another Lenskart store they had tried.
Within a kilometre, there are 11 other optometrists. Several are in the same mall, including Kai Joo Optical, OWNDAYS and Crystal Optics. Our pick at Hougang Mall for a quick eye test and a cheap pair of frames.
