We’ve got some exciting news to share! 👓✨

We’re thrilled to say that Dr Hargreaves has now officially taken over the business! Their passion for eye care, dedication to our patients, and commitment to great service make them the perfect person to lead us into this next chapter.
Nothing’s changing when it comes to the friendly faces and quality care you know and trust – we’re just looking forward to building on it even more.
Join us in congratulating Dr Hargreaves on this exciting step! 🎉

Whose been watching the winter Olympics🙋‍♀️
It's been fantastic and they are all winners in our eyes🏆
Did you know that Winter Olympic athletes use specialized eyewear to protect against intense UV snow reflection, freezing temperatures, and high-speed wind, often wearing goggles over prescription glasses or specialized, tinted lenses to maintain clear vision.
Just goes to show that your eyesight or surroundings shouldn't hold you back, you just need the right eyewear👊
