Maltings

Maltings Eyecare is a family-run optician with a rich history in St Albans, dating back to 1993. As an independent optician, we take pride in providing a personal, caring, and professional service to our clients. Our philosophy is to provide the highest quality in optometric services, utilising the latest technology, and we have invested heavily in the latest screening and scanning equipment to help provide an extremely thorough eye examination.

At Maltings Eyecare, we believe that quality of service and product are essential. We strive to be your partner in selecting the perfect frame of your choice, and we also recommend the latest 'Freeform' and 'Smart' computer-designed lenses to offer the best vision, combined with the thinnest, lightest, and flattest lens forms available, together with the most advanced lens coatings.

Our Services

We offer a comprehensive range of services, including private comprehensive eye examinations for adults and children, as well as NHS sight tests for those who qualify. Our experienced optometrists use the latest technology to provide a thorough and accurate assessment of your eye health. We also fit all types of contact lenses, including soft, gas permeable, toric, and multifocal lenses.

In addition to our eye care services, we also offer a wide range of frames sourced from the latest fashion capitals, including Milan, Barcelona, and Paris. Our experienced team will help you find the perfect frame to suit your style and budget.

We also provide retinal imaging, which is a means of recording an image of the retina and tissues at the back of the eye. This allows us to detect any potential eye health issues early on, and provide the necessary treatment.

Testimonials

Our commitment to providing exceptional service has earned us a loyal client base, with many clients traveling from surrounding areas to continue using our services. Here's what one of our satisfied clients has to say:

"I started using Maltings Eye care when I lived in Markyate. When I moved out of the area I kept using them because they are SO good. So I now travel a significant distance just to keep using them instead of my local opticians. Doesn't that say it all? They are clever, resourceful, and always go the extra mile to make sure I get the best service. And their prices are very competitive too. Keep the independents alive and go here instead of Specsavers etc." - M.W. Bedford
