Have you ever wondered what different prescriptions look like? This week is so we thought we would show you the effects of myopia.

These days, the progression of myopia can now be slowed through the use of myopia control spectacles and contact lenses, among other techniques, which we have championed for over 30 years. Slowing myopia and keeping a stable prescription lowers the risks of eye-related issues in the future and is best to be targeted from a young age which is why thorough eye examinations are so important.

Lens selection is just as, if not more, important than your frame choice. The correct lenses in your frame could be make or break for their appearance and weight. That is why we will always discuss your options with you.

Kathleen collected her new Transition lenses, which offer her so much versatility. Transitions GEN S are known for being ultra-responsive to light and available in 8 colours. While Transitions XTRActive are best for intense light, staying slightly tinted indoors and darken in the car, making them ideal for light-sensitive individuals. Transitions XTRActive Polarised combines extra darkness with polarisation to reduce glare, suitable for bright, reflective conditions.

As part of our focus on the continuity of care, we take a look at one of the rarely seen members of the Aaron's team.

Chris has played a valuable role throughout Aaron's recent history. From joining us on our first practice relocation in 1993 to our most recent refresh in 2024, Chris, now joined by his son Ash, has been an unseen member of our team. Proving that building long, trusting relationships ends with the best results for everyone.
