July 19th update
Wearing masks in the practice
We feel that the governments removal of restrictions is simply too risky in a
healthcare environment so for the time being we will continue to ask patients to wear
a mask (unless exempt) when attending for appointments
For your safety and reassurance, we are continuing to operate on a locked door, appointment only basis. There are strict measures in place, to minimise any risk to
you and ourselves during your visit

Contact lens handling and advice
The same four staff members have been together for over 30 years so not only do we work well together but feel people appreciate seeing the same faces year on year.
Our philosophy is to offer the best service we possibly can. This won't make us the cheapest but we do feel we offer terrific value for money.
Stella and I began our partnership here in Lenton in 1983 in a conscious decision to avoid the more high street locations.
Our clientele mainly come from the west side of Nottingham, the Wollaton, Bramcote and Beeston areas plus the QMC and Nottingham University stretching through Lenton and up to the Park estate.
Stella is the dispensing optician dealing mainly with frames and lenses and I perform the eye examinations and contact lens fitting and aftercare.
Aware of the difference between sight tests (clinical) and eyewear (fashion, style and functionality)
Stella has created a sister website stellareeseyewear.com where she discusses frames and lenses that have caught her eye plus advice together with some do's and don'ts on choosing specs.
If you want to know why some kinds of varifocals work much better than others or which type of frame will suit you face shape this is the place to visit. It's still fairly new so call back often for updates and video's which we are currently making.
