🌟 Customer Love Alert! 🌟

We just had to share this wonderful Google Review from Simon who visited us for their annual eye check and new work glasses!

"The test was really thorough and everything was explained clearly. I was fitted for new glasses on the spot and they were ready within the week. I received a message on a Saturday to say there were ready and was able to visit the same day to make sure they fitted perfectly. Everyone there was really friendly and helpful – overall a great experience."

That's the Thomas Carter difference! We pride ourselves on being thorough, fast, and offering weekend service so you can get perfectly fitted glasses when it suits you.

Ready for your own great experience? Book your next comprehensive eye check with us today!

We Did It! ☕️✨ Our Macmillan Cancer Support Coffee Morning was a huge success, thanks to all of you! We completely surpassed our expectations.

A massive thank you to everyone who came, supported, and baked. Your generosity made a real difference.

We're so proud to be able to send some of the proceeds directly to our local Macmillan support centre, helping them continue their incredible work right here in our community and the rest will go to Macmillan to help people affected by cancer all over the country.

Thank you again for your amazing support!

Thinking about making the switch from glasses, or just curious about your options?

Modern contact lenses are incredibly easy to wear and care for. Plus, they can boost your confidence by letting your natural appearance shine through without the distraction of frames.

Our Story

We are an independent Optician in Urmston.

And by that, we mean to say we are a bunch of friendly peeps who care about our Community. You won’t find another Opticians practice quite like ours, we are sure of that.

Book in with our admin team, come see us for a cup of tea or coffee and enjoy a thorough eyetest from our qualified and professional Optometrists and then have the dispensing team (or maybe all of us) help make your eyewear decisions fun and easy.

We have late opening times during the week to try accommodate those who work full time hours who can’t always come in at the weekend.
