Personal Frame Fitting Service
Our qualified Dispensing Opticians are on hand to provide you with a personalised frame styling and fitting service. We take as much time as you need to help you find the perfect frame, one that you feel suits you, and that also fits your prescription. We regularly update our collection of frames, stocking a wide variety of the latest trends from designers such as Gucci, Dior, Armani and Calvin Klein - being independent allows us to offer a greater choice than many other high street optometrists.
We also offer digital photographs of you wearing frames you have chosen, as if you have a high prescription, you may not be able to see yourself when you take your current glasses off. Alternatively, we can offer temporary contact lenses - who knows, you may like them so much you decide to wear contact lenses as well!
Choice of Lens
We will discuss your lens choices with you, considering your daily routine and individual requirements.
Our independence gives us freedom with your lens choice, as we work with many different suppliers to find the best for you. You can be confident that our advice and recommendations are in your best interest, ensuring that your spectacles exceed your expectations. We are able to cater for any prescription, and offer a wide variety of different options, such as:
Varifocal Lenses
Anti-Reflective Coated Lenses
Photochromic Lenses
Polarised Lenses
Occupational Lenses
Safety Spectacles
More than 2000 people injure their eyes at work every day, with about 10-20% of those causing temporary or permanent loss of sight. Experts believe that wearing the right eye protection could lessen, or even prevent 90% of eye injuries in accidents. We offer a range of protective eyewear, including:
Non-prescription and Prescription Safety Glasses
Goggles
Face Shields
Welding Helmets
Full-Face Respirators
There is also a choice of safety lenses to suit your occupation, made from either glass, plastic or polycarbonate; we will work with you to find the one that is best for you.
Sunglasses
Sunglasses are not just a fashion accessory; they are, first and foremost, a very effective way of protecting your eyes from the potentially damaging UV light rays emitted by the sun. Many tints are available, and the lightness/darkness and colour is largely a matter of personal preference. We offer a wide range of prescription and non-prescription sunglasses - all with the British Standard CE Mark, a UV 400 label, and a statement that says the sunglasses offer 100% UV protection.
Contact Lenses
We believe that contact lenses are a realistic alternative to spectacles for the majority of people. We can help if you have shortsightedness (myopia), farsightedness (hypermetropia), astigmatism or bifocal/multifocal prescriptions. We also offer a comprehensive Contact Lens Ocular Health Examination, once you are using them, providing the very best in contact lens care; find out more here.
