One year ago, on 7th April, I opened the doors to Kirkburton Eyecare with a simple goal — to provide truly personal, high-quality eye care at the heart of our community.

Today, I’m feeling incredibly grateful as we celebrate our first anniversary.

To every patient who has trusted us with their eye health, recommended us to friends and family, or simply walked through our doors with a smile — thank you. Your support, kindness, and encouragement have meant more than I can put into words.

Building Kirkburton Eyecare has been a passion project from the very beginning. As an independent optometrist, my aim has always been to take the time to listen, to care and to deliver the level of service that every patient deserves. Seeing the practice grow into a trusted part of the local community has been both humbling and rewarding.

I’m also so proud to be part of such a warm and welcoming village. The support from fellow local businesses and residents has made this journey even more special.

To celebrate, Josette and I have arranged some sweet treats in practice on Wednesday 8th April — you are all very welcome to pop in and join us!

This is just the beginning and I’m so excited for what the future holds. We look forward to continuing to care for you and your families for many years to come.

Thank you for an amazing first year ❤️

😎 See the world more clearly this summer! 🌞

Not all sunglasses are created equal…

While standard tinted lenses simply darken your view, polarised sunglasses take your vision to the next level. They’re specially designed to reduce glare from reflective surfaces like water, roads, and glass — giving you sharper, clearer, and more comfortable vision.

✨ Why choose polarised sunglasses?
✔️ Eliminate blinding glare
✔️ Enhance clarity and contrast
✔️ Reduce eye strain and fatigue
✔️ Perfect for driving, holidays, and outdoor activities

And when it comes to protection, polarised lenses don’t compromise. Our sunglasses provide full UV protection, helping to shield your eyes from harmful UVA and UVB rays — something your eyes need all year round, not just in summer.

🕶️ Tinted vs Polarised?
Tinted lenses may reduce brightness, but they don’t tackle glare and may not always offer complete UV protection. Polarised lenses give you both comfort AND protection — the smarter choice for your eye health.

Pop in-store and let us help you find your perfect pair!

7 Surprising Facts About Your Eyes

Your eyes are incredible and work harder than you might realise every single day. Here are some fascinating facts about them:

👁 Your eyes can distinguish around 10 million different colours.

👁 You blink 15–20 times every minute to keep your eyes lubricated and protected.

👁 Your eyes can focus on around 50 different objects every second.

👁 The muscles that move your eyes are some of the fastest in your body.

👁 Your iris pattern is completely unique, just like a fingerprint.

👁 Your eyes process visual information incredibly quickly with the help of your brain.

👁 Many vision changes happen gradually, which is why regular eye tests are important.

When was your last eye test?

Regular eye exams help detect problems early and keep your vision clear.

Is your screen giving your eyes a hard time?

If you’re spending hours in front of a computer, phone, or tablet every day — you’re not alone. And neither are your eyes.

Digital eye strain is one of the most common complaints we hear at Kirkburton Eyecare, and the symptoms can be really disruptive:
😣 Tired, sore, or dry eyes
🤕 Headaches by mid-afternoon
😵‍💫 Blurred vision after screen time
😴 Difficulty concentrating

The good news? We can help.

✅ Occupational Glasses – Specially prescribed lenses designed for the distance between your eyes and your screen. Not your reading glasses. Not your distance glasses. Lenses made for your working environment. Many workplaces are even required to contribute to the cost — ask us how!
✅ Blue Light Coatings – A coating applied to your lenses that filters out the high-energy blue light emitted by screens. Less glare, less strain, better sleep. Simple.
Whether you work from home, in an office, or spend long hours at a screen — a conversation with our team could make a real difference to how you feel every single day.

Is reading a struggle for your child?

Some children find reading tiring, uncomfortable, or frustrating—not because they can’t read, but because of visual stress.

Signs of visual stress in children may include:
• Words moving, blurring, or jumping on the page
• Skipping lines or losing their place when reading
• Headaches or tired eyes after schoolwork
• Avoiding reading or screens altogether

At Kirkburton Eyecare we offer Overlay Assessments to help identify whether colour can make reading more comfortable.

What is an overlay assessment?
Your child reads with different coloured overlays to see if a particular colour reduces visual discomfort and improves clarity. For some children, the right colour can make reading calmer, easier and more enjoyable.

✔️ Safe, simple, and non-invasive
✔️ Suitable for children of all ages
✔️ Often used alongside school support

💬 If you’ve been told your child “just needs more practice” but something doesn’t feel right, it may be worth exploring visual stress.

📩 Get in touch to find out more or to book an overlay assessment—we’re always happy to talk things through.

Because confident reading starts with comfortable vision 💙
