We love the way Alice looks in her new glasses; they really suit her.

Sometimes we see people wearing stunning new glasses – but all you see is the glasses. They are making a statement “look at me”, but they are “wearing” the person, not the person wearing them, and they actually look dreadful. We are very careful to help you choose glasses that compliment you and never shriek, “look at me”, only to completely ruin how you look.

For a great experience choosing your new frames with the promise that your glasses will really suit you, ring 01382 224620 and let our friendly and expert team take all the strain out of you finding the perfect eyewear for you..

I am delighted to have started fitting myopia-control contact lenses. I have been very interested in the progression of myopia (short-sight) after a very dear friend lost her central vision at a young age due to myopic maculopathy. Having myopia increases the risk of developing certain eye conditions and the risk increases as the amount of short-sight increases.

Research shows that these new contact lenses slow the development of myopia. I have undergone the accreditation process and am now able to fit the lenses. The research showed that the children fitted with the lenses handled and tolerated them well.

These lenses really offer hope for the future for short-sighted children. Ring 01382 224620 to book an initial consultation and we can discuss whether these lenses would be suitable for your child.

We are delighted to announce that we have started fitting new myopia-control contact lenses, designed especially for children. Increasing levels of myopia (short-sightedness) are linked with increasing risk of retinal detachment and myopic maculopathy. I have undertaken the accreditation process and am very pleased that there is now something to offer our young myopic patients. Of course we cannot make promises for any individual child, but the controlled trials were very encouraging. The children have been followed now for five years and the rate of increase in myopia is very much reduced, the children followed got on very well the lenses and there were no cases of infection.

If you would like to explore this exciting new opportunity for your children, in the first instance, ring 01382 224620, to book an appointment so we can discuss the possibilities.
