Meet Gill – One of our Optical Dispensers! 👓

Gill joined Peter Smith Opticians in 2024 after working in optics since leaving school. With years of experience behind her, she loves helping people feel great in their spectacles and always gives her honest opinion on frames — whether you like it or not!😉

Gill enjoys helping others and making every visit friendly and relaxed, often having a good chat along the way (sometimes a bit too much… but that’s all part of the fun!) 🤗

Age-related macular degeneration (AMD) is one of the leading causes of sight loss in the UK.

AMD affects the macula — the part of the eye responsible for sharp, central vision. This means it can make everyday tasks such as reading, recognising faces, driving, and using digital devices more difficult.

Early detection is essential. Regular eye examinations allow us to monitor your eye health and identify any changes as early as possible.

If you have noticed any changes in your vision, book an eye test with us today.
