👓 5 Stylish Eyewear Tips from the Optomeyes Team

Choosing frames isn’t just about vision, it’s about style too.

Here are a few tips we love sharing with our customers:

✨ Balance your look, bold frames work beautifully with simple outfits
✨ Consider your face shape (and hat choice!)
✨ Day vs evening frames can change the feel of an outfit
✨ Let your glasses reflect your personality
✨ Mirrored sunnies? Let them be the star

Your eyewear should work as hard for your style as it does for your vision.

From subtle to statement - eyewear for every occasion

Whether you're heading to the races, attending weddings, planning a cruise, or enjoying garden parties this spring and summer, the frames you wear can completely elevate your look.

Yet many of us wear the same glasses for everything, work, weekends, evenings and events.

Why not change that this year?

✨ Bold frames can elevate a simple outfit
✨ Elegant frames can complement formal occasions
✨ Stylish sunglasses can complete your holiday look

Your glasses aren’t just practical, they’re part of your personal style.

👉 Pop in and speak to one of our dispensing opticians to find the perfect frames for your lifestyle.

🔬 What is an OCT scan, and why is it so important?

An OCT (Optical Coherence Tomography) scan is one of the most advanced tools in modern eye care.

It uses light waves to create a highly detailed, cross-sectional 3D image of the back of your eye, including the retina and optic nerve. Think of it as an MRI for your eyes, but quick, painless and non-invasive.

This level of detail allows us to detect early signs of conditions such as:

• Glaucoma
• Macular degeneration
• Diabetic eye disease
• Retinal tears or abnormalities

Often before you notice any symptoms at all.

Many serious eye conditions develop silently. By the time vision changes occur, damage may already have happened. OCT scanning helps us identify problems earlier, monitor changes more accurately, and act quickly to protect your sight.

👁️ Early detection doesn’t just preserve vision, it protects independence, confidence and quality of life.

Our Deluxe Membership includes OCT scans as part of your routine care, giving you added peace of mind at every appointment.

👉 Ask about OCT at your next visit or speak to our team about becoming a Deluxe Member today.

🌸 Spring has sprung… and so has style season!

After what feels like the wettest start to the year, the brighter days are finally starting to appear and we’re ready for them.

If you're anything like us, the change in season probably has you thinking about swapping winter layers for something a little lighter and brighter.

But why stop at your wardrobe?

👓 Spring is the perfect time for an eyewear refresh too. A new frame can completely transform your look and bring fresh energy to your style.

Pop into our Wickham or Lee-on-the-Solent practices and let our team help you find the perfect pair.

📱 Screen Time & Short-Sightedness - What Parents Should Know

Modern lifestyles mean children are spending more time than ever focusing on screens, tablets, phones, laptops, gaming consoles.

Research shows that prolonged near work and reduced time outdoors are both linked to an increased risk of developing and progressing short-sightedness (myopia).

When children focus up close for long periods, their eyes can become strained. Over time, this may contribute to faster prescription changes.

💡 One simple habit can make a difference:

Follow the 20-20-20 rule:
Every 20 minutes
Look at something 20 feet away
For 20 seconds

It gives the focusing muscles in the eyes a chance to relax.

We also recommend:
🌳 At least 90 minutes of outdoor time per day
💡 Good lighting when reading or doing homework
📵 Encouraging regular screen breaks

Small daily habits can help support long-term eye health.

But the most important step?
Regular eye examinations.

Children don’t always realise their vision is changing, and often won’t say anything.

👉 If it’s been a while since your child’s last check, book an eye test this month.

Well… this was unexpected.

Marwell’s missing capybara popped in needing a little help with her vision 👀

After trying another optician (we won’t name names…), her specs weren’t quite doing the job.

We’ve now got her seeing clearly again, so hopefully home isn’t too far away. 🤞🏻

In all seriousness, if you see her, please contact Marwell Zoo 👉 07436167401

Myopia Case Study: Part 4

The Results, Why Early Intervention Matters

When Liz first brought her daughters to Optomeyes, their short-sightedness was beginning to progress.

Through early diagnosis and a structured myopia management plan, we were able to significantly slow that progression.

📉 Slower prescription changes
📉 Reduced long-term risk
📈 Greater confidence in their vision

That’s the real power of early intervention.

Myopia isn’t just about needing stronger glasses each year. Higher levels of short-sightedness can increase the lifetime risk of more serious eye conditions, including retinal detachment, glaucoma and macular degeneration.

By acting early, we’re not just improving how clearly children see today - we’re helping to protect their eye health for the future.

Modern myopia management techniques, including specialist contact lenses such as MiSight®, are designed specifically to slow progression safely and effectively.

Clearer vision.
Stronger long-term protection.
Peace of mind for parents.

👉 If your child is becoming more short-sighted, don’t wait. Book an eye test and ask about myopia management today.
