Quality. Experience. Guarantee.

When you choose an independent Opticians you are making a conscious choice to place a high value in your eye health, vision and eyewear.

The Independent Difference

    Eye Examinations

    We continually invest in the very latest medical grade equipment to examine your eyes. Alongside this, we have an extremely experienced and qualified team that have spent years gaining their knowledge to give you the very best examination.

    Vision

    We use extremely high quality lens technology for all of our lenses. This includes bespoke measurements that enhance your vision much more than a basic design, and coatings that come with an incredible 2 year scratch guarantee - even if you accidentally scratch them yourself.

    Our team of experts translate information in the test room to bespoke eyewear that gives you the very best vision, protection and comfort.

    Style and Sustainability

    It is possible to get spectacle frames for less than £5 online. But the difference between this, and handmade eyewear from top designers is huge.

    We source frames from companies that use natural materials that are incredibly robust, striking and sustainable. We also use smaller companies that value their workforce.

    Some of our top ranged frames have over 100 steps that are conducted by hand before they reach us. This quality cannot be replicated by cheap, mass produced eyewear.

Choosing eyewear where you have your eye examination.

We are strong advocates of choosing a practice for both your eye examination and your eyewear.

Your eyes are incredibly complex, and a few numbers written down on a page do not accurately give enough information to make sure that you have the very best vision, eye protection and performance from your glasses.

That’s why we have always stressed the importance of selecting a practice to look after not only your eye examinations, but also your spectacles.
