This week is Myopia Awareness week.
Myopia is the scientific term for being shortsighed.
It used to be the case that we would prescribe standard spectacles for children who were shortsighted and say that it will just increase as they get older.
However, in the recent years research has shown it can be slowed down (to give a potentially lower prescription when they finish growing) by using specialist lenses (spectacle or Contact Lenses).
It is important to detect Myopia as early as possible and to keep up to date with children's eye examinations.
Book an eye examination for your child today, no child is too young!

When we do a minor repair or adjustment on a pair of spectacles for a patient, we ask them to make a donation in one of the charity boxes we support.
It is lovely to see donations like this being received by the charities we support.
Thank you to our generous patients!

Choosing the right lens for fit-over sunglasses doesn’t have to be complicated! 🕶️ Here is a simple guide to finding the perfect match for your eyes:

✨ Gray: The classic choice. It lowers brightness without changing colors—perfect for everyday wear and natural vision.

✨ Amber & Copper: The favorites for drivers and golfers. These sharpen details and help you see depth more clearly by enhancing contrast.

✨ Yellow: Your best friend for overcast days or low light. These lenses "brighten" your view and make everything look sharper when it’s cloudy.

✨ Mirrors (Blue, Green, Silver, Gold): Built for the toughest glare. These are ideal for being out on the water, in the snow, or in extremely bright environments.

Every lens is polarised to eliminate blinding glare and designed to keep your eyes relaxed and focused, no matter the conditions. ☀️☁️🌊

We are proud to share our latest donation to the Air Ambulance HELP appeal.
This is collected from asking patients for donations after small spectacle repairs and adjustments instead of a specific charge.
So thank you to all our kind and generous patients.

At Kineton Optometrists we understand that sometimes one pair of Spectacles is not enough.
You may want a spare pair of Spectacles, you may have a hobby that requires a visual position that your varifocals cannot cope with, you may spend a long time on a computer and want a pair of spectacles that do not give you a crick in the neck, or maybe you want a pair of prescription sunglasses?
Working with Rodenstock Lenses we are able to offer a multipair offer that means 50% off additional pairs of spectacle lenses.
Pop into the practice to discuss the offer with us.

Did you know Biometric Intelligent Glasses support your complete vision system?

Human vision consists of two subsystems that work with the brain: focus vision and peripheral vision. For good visual perception it is crucial these subsystems work in harmony and optimise the flow of our vision.

At Kineton Optometrists , we offer Biometric Intelligent Glasses by Rodenstock. These lenses are made using AI technology and a biometric eye model in the lens calculation that tailors the lenses more precisely to your eyes.

With the precision of B.I.G. lenses, you get glasses that offer sharper vision and a wider field of vision at near. These properties better support your brain in the vision process and help optimise your vision flow.

Visit us at Kineton Optometrists and experience all the benefits of B.I.G. VISION®.
