Independently ranked by our review of ratings, reviews and reputation · How we chose

Blurry text on your phone at arm's length, or a new pair of progressives that never quite feel right: an optometrist is who handles both, testing your vision and getting the prescription right, not operating on your eyes. Singapore's optometrists on this page have collected over 4,300 Google reviews between them, and every one sits at 4.7 stars or above, so the differentiator is really the specific fit problem you're trying to solve.

Short answer: Eye Zone Optical leads with a 4.8 rating across 2,361 reviews, the deepest track record on this page, known for progressive and prism lens fittings. EyeChamp Optometrists (4.9, 567 reviews) and The Eyes Inc (4.9, 318 reviews) both draw strong praise for solving stubborn progressive lens discomfort, with eye tests typically bundled free into a spectacle purchase.

Our take: Worth it if you want your eye exam and any potential surgical pathway handled by the same team, less so for a quick glasses errand.

How we score

Rating is the live Google average. Review volume measures how many customers actually left a review, ranked against the others on this page. Confidence weighs the rating by that volume, so a 4.8 from 2,361 reviews and a 4.9 from 253 aren’t treated as equal. Recency checks how recently people are still reviewing. No business can pay to change these numbers.

How much does an eye test or glasses fitting cost in Singapore? (2026)

Most optometrists here bundle a basic eye test into the cost of new spectacles, while contact lens fittings and specialty lenses are typically priced separately based on the brand and complexity.

Serving all of Singapore

These optometrists cluster around Toa Payoh, Ang Mo Kio and Mt Alvernia, with several running multiple branches across the island in neighbourhoods like Bedok, Woodlands, Yishun, Clementi and Bukit Batok, so a search for “optometrist near me” will usually turn up one of these chains close to home.

What to ask before booking an eye test

  • Is the eye test free with a spectacle or contact lens purchase, or charged separately?
  • What brands of lenses do you carry for my specific prescription type?
  • How long will fitting and collection take for new glasses?
  • Do you offer free adjustments after collection if the fit isn’t right?
  • Can you explain why you’re recommending this lens type over a cheaper option?
  • Do you carry trial contact lenses if I’m switching types for the first time?

Frequently asked questions

Are these rankings paid?

No. Rankings come from public Google data. A business can pay to be a Featured Partner (badge and top placement), but that never changes another business’s score or position.

How did you choose these optometrists?

We pulled real Google ratings, review counts and review text for optometrists operating in Singapore, then ranked them by a mix of rating, review volume and how recently people are still reviewing.

How often is this updated?

This page reflects Google data verified in August 2026. Ratings and review counts shift over time, so we periodically refresh it.

Can an optometrist treat eye disease?

No. Optometrists test vision, prescribe glasses or contacts and screen for common issues, but diagnosing or surgically treating eye disease is the role of an ophthalmologist.

How often should I get my eyes tested?

Most optometrists recommend an eye test every one to two years for adults, or annually if you wear contact lenses or have a condition like myopia that needs monitoring.

The bottom line

Eye Zone Optical’s near-30-year track record and review volume make it the safe default for most eye tests and glasses. If progressive lenses specifically haven’t worked for you elsewhere, book with The Eyes Inc instead. Bring your current glasses to the appointment either way, since several of these optometrists rely on remeasuring them to fix a bad fit.
