Dry eyes? It might be Meibomian Gland Dysfunction 💧
This happens when the tiny oil glands in your eyelids get blocked, preventing the protective oil layer from reaching your tears. Without that oil, your tears evaporate too fast, leaving your eyes feeling gritty and irritated 👁️✨

2017 saw the 60 year anniversary of Barracloughs the Opticians. Established in 1957 by Frank Barraclough (pictured below) and later joined by Peter Stiles, Barraclough and Stiles Opticians quickly gained a reputation founded on expertise combined with a kind and helpful manner.
With both Frank and Peter now retired, 60 years on the group continues to flourish. The passion for optics has been passed onto future generations with sons Tony and Nigel Barraclough both joining the business many years back - now Directors along with Surainder Puri and Managing Director Jeremy Heynes.
Continued investments in the latest technology and equipment help us maintain our position in such a competitive industry, these include:
Retinal Photography
Retinal Scanning
OCT
DNEye scanners
3D measurement devices
Mobile apps
Combined with our expertise, our popularity grows and we are very grateful to every single customer for this.
Developments and investments such as these wouldn’t account for anything without the significant contributions made by the team working in the Company. A large proportion of our staff have been with us for many years enabling us to build excellent relationships with our clients and create a family feel within the group.
