About Us
Take a look at the various services we offer and meet our experienced team.
Welcome!
We have been tucked away here in Jacob Yard since 1985 so we are now the longest established opticians practice in Faversham. Don’t think of us as old and stuffy though! We are still young, enthusiastic and vibrant with the latest in technology and constantly refreshed and updated eyewear collections!
We believe in using qualified staff, Optometrists and Dispensing Opticians working alongside trained Optical Assistants in order to give you access to friendly, clear, unbiased advice. Our primary aim is that you get the best vision possible, obviously we always like to sell exciting technological lenses and funky frames but we will spend as much time with you as you want and give you ‘jargon free’ explanations about the various lens ‘add ons’ available and what their benefit to you and your vision would be. We do NOT have sales targets of any kind, you will never be ‘sold’ something without knowing why! We love happy customers!
Specialist Work
We offer the best in Optometry. Our optometrist partner, Yegi, has done specialist training that allows her to work closely with local hospitals in the NHS MECS(Minor Eye Conditions Service) Scheme , Glaucoma monitoring schemes and direct cataract referrals. As well as standard eye examinations and contact lens appointments we also offer OCT retinal scans, Visual Stress assessments, colorimetry & Dry Eye clinics.
Frames
We refresh our frame range constantly and have specs in all price ranges and for all ages, prescriptions and sizes. We run a range of offers, the most popular are FREE ‘spare pairs’ and FREE ‘lens upgrades’. We are a stockist of various specialist frames for kids in particular the Erins World and Tomatos ranges which are particularly suitable for very little kids and babies and people come from all over Kent because of our unusually extensive range. Our Dispensing Opticians the two Sarahs and team are always pleased to talk to you about the various styles and lens options available to you.
Sunglasses, driving specs, contact lenses, sports specs...... you name it and we do it! Your first point of contact will probably be reception where you will find our manager Tracey and her team.
