Thank you Immi’s Cakes & Bakes for the fabulous chocolate yule log, a lovely surprise when we popped into the The Stag & Scotch Micropub for a quick Christmas day drink.

That’s a wrap for Cornealius the Eye Elf! 👀
He's packed his tiny suitcase and is heading back to the North Pole to help Father Christmas get ready for the big day!
He’s had a brilliant time causing a little mischief, sharing eye-care tips and spreading festive cheer. Thank you for following his adventures!
Cornealius and all of us at Duignan Phelps Optometrists wish you a very Merry Christmas.
And don’t worry… he’ll be back next year!

Oh no! Naughty Cornealius has broken a pair of glasses!
All he had to do was ask if he could try some new frames!
Remember, if your glasses get a little worse for wear this festive season, we can help you find a stylish new pair in the New Year.
Cornelius approves (most of the time)!

School's out and that means more time for Christmas crafts at home!
Cornealius loves a bit of sparkle but here’s a very important reminder…
Glitter is fun but keep it away from your eyes!
Especially when little ones are crafting, stray glitter can cause eye irritation or scratches.
Enjoy the festive creativity safely and keep those eyes happy and sparkly – just like Cornealius!

It's Cornealius’s Christmas Gift Guide!
Looking for the perfect stocking filler for the glasses wearer in your life or even a little treat for yourself?
Cornealius has some fab ideas:
Fashion chains – classy or a little bit of bling
Cleaning kits – keep lenses sparkling with a cloth and spray
Trendy glasses cases – stylish and protective
Our brilliant ‘noses’ – hold your specs without putting them back in the case! Choose from unicorns, football, rugby or golf noses 🦄⚽🏉⛳

Cornealius has been busy exploring Newport and he’s got a very important festive tip for you…
Shop local this Christmas! 💝🎁
Not only will you be giving your eyes a break from all that screen time, you’ll also be supporting the local businesses that make our town so special.
Every purchase helps keep shops, cafés and services thriving, creating a vibrant community for everyone to enjoy and helping small business owners have their own Merry Christmas..
Pop into our lovely local shops, find unique gifts and let your eyes enjoy a little offline festive fun.
Cornealius approves!

Cornealius has been rummaging through the make-up bag and he’s got a very important reminder for the Christmas party season!
Before you glam up, check the expiry dates on your make-up, especially mascara, eyeliner and eyeshadow.
Using expired products can cause eye irritation, infections or even damage to the delicate skin around your eyes.
So if it’s been open since last Christmas, it’s time to say goodbye! 🗑️💋
Your eyes will thank you for keeping things fresh this festive season.

Cornealius is getting organised for the festive season and he’s here to remind you to do the same! 🎁
If you wear contact lenses, make sure you order your next supply in plenty of time before the festive rush.
With holidays, postal delays and extra celebrations on the calendar, it’s best not to leave it to the last minute!
Keep your eyes happy, healthy and ready to sparkle for every detail, all season long.
