Prescription Glasses
We provide custom prescription glasses with advanced lens technology, including thin and lightweight options for high prescriptions. Our designer frames cater to all styles and budgets, with expert fitting assistance to ensure comfort and visual clarity. Professional consultations help patients select eyewear that complements facial features and lifestyle needs.
Contact Lenses
Our contact lens services include disposable, extended wear, and specialist fittings. We offer modern materials for enhanced comfort and vision correction, with comprehensive guidance on proper care and hygiene. Patients receive thorough assessments to determine the most suitable lens type for their visual requirements and daily activities.
Eye Examinations
Comprehensive eye examinations lasting 30-40 minutes assess visual acuity and detect potential conditions like glaucoma and macular degeneration. We conduct NHS and private tests, including D.V.L.A visual field screening for drivers. Regular check-ups are recommended for all ages, with child-specific assessments available.
Designer Sunglasses
Our designer prescription sunglasses combine UV protection with fashionable styles from leading brands. We offer polarised and photochromic lenses to suit various light conditions, with frame selections tailored to facial shapes and personal aesthetics. Expert advice ensures optimal fit and functionality for outdoor activities.
Bespoke Eyewear
Through collaboration with Tom Davies, we create made-to-measure eyewear using precise facial measurements. These handcrafted frames utilise premium materials like titanium and buffalo horn, with 24-carat gold-plated options available. The bespoke process takes 3-4 weeks, delivering unique, comfortable spectacles tailored exclusively to individual specifications.
