Not a Chain compared 2,762 optometrists in Australia, with 360,089 Google reviews between them. Of these, 1,745 meet this list's method. The median rating is 4.8 from a median of 44 reviews.

How this list is ranked

Businesses are ranked as in the fairly rated method, but only those whose name and website each appear in no more than two places in Australia are listed, so chains and franchises are left out. Each needs at least five Google reviews.

A business that shares its name with unrelated businesses elsewhere can be left out by mistake, and being part of a chain says nothing about quality.
