“I chose her birthday card myself.”

That’s what Mike told us.

Mike is partially sighted.
For years, everyday moments like reading a card, choosing a gift, or simply navigating life meant relying on someone else.

But recently, that changed.

With his new Ray-Ban Meta AI glasses, Mike has a new level of independence.
He can navigate and interact with the world in a way that simply wasn’t possible before.

And for the first time in years…
he walked into a shop and chose his wife’s birthday card himself!

It’s easy to think glasses are about vision.
But sometimes, they’re about something much bigger:

Confidence & Independence

Moments like this are exactly why we do what we do. 🥰

After many years of dedication, laughter, and looking after our patients, we’re saying goodbye (but not really goodbye) to three very special members of the Prince & Bates family.

Pete, Sharon, and Sam are all retiring…

Between them, they’ve given decades of care, expertise, and personality to the practice — and Prince & Bates simply wouldn’t be what it is today without them.

While they’ll be hugely missed day-to-day, their impact will always be part of who we are.

And don’t worry — the next chapter is already well underway, with our experienced team here to continue looking after you in the same way you’ve always known us for.

Thank you, Pete, Sharon & Sam — enjoy a very well-earned retirement ❤️
