Some very kind words from a lovely patient! Dry Eye Wales is in the business of improving lives by letting you forget about your eyes! If your eyes are causing you grief give us a call 📞 💚 💛

Dry Eye Wales is the specialist dry eye clinic affiliated with The Optical People, Chepstow, South East Wales

We need you! 💖 If you’ve had dry eye treatment with us at The Optical People over the last 9 years or since Dry Eye Wales launched in January of this year, please take a moment to leave us a review! 📝✨

Dry Eye Wales was created because we frequently had patients say, “I wish I had known about you sooner.” Similarly, many optometrists and ophthalmologists have said they wish they’d known they could refer to us for dry eye treatment and management when conventional methods weren’t enough.

It’s time for us to get LOUD, and we need your help! 📣 Any review you leave is massively appreciated and will help others in need find us. Plus, you could win a cheeky prize! 🎉

Thank you for your support! 💖
