Specsavers near me vs Boots Opticians Near me vs Independent Opticians

Are independent opticians better than Specsavers near me or Boots Opticians near me?
 
Independents, although typically more expensive, often source a wide range of unique frames that you’re unlikely to see on another person when walking down the street.
 
The high quality of these frames also means they are likely to have much better longevity.
