Eye health can change throughout life, and for women, different stages can bring different challenges.

It’s Women’s Eye Health and Safety Month, and we’re taking a closer look at how different life stages and health conditions can affect vision.

Women are more likely to have certain eye health problems because of hormonal changes and age-related conditions. The good news is that many of them can be treated or managed, especially if they are found early.

Taking small steps, like having regular eye examinations and paying attention to changes in your vision, can make a real difference.

If you have any concerns or would like to book an eye test, our friendly team is here to help.

April is Presbyopia Awareness Month.

It is estimated that around 1.8 billion people worldwide have presbyopia, a condition that makes it harder to see things close up (which is why you may find yourself holding reading material at arm’s length).

Find out more about presbyopia below, and as always, if you have any concerns or notice changes in your vision, our friendly team is here to help. Call us to book an eye test.

We’re sorry….

We got so excited about the sunshine and the start of sunglasses season that we rushed to show you the Tom Ford collection… but we should have waited to share these too!

The new Maui Jim collection has just arrived in practice, and we’re loving the fresh frame shapes. Plus, Maui Jim’s PolarizedPlus2 lenses eliminate 100% of harmful UV rays.

Available now in practice—come and explore the collection.
