🚧 ROAD CLOSURE ALERT 🚧
(But don’t panic – we’ve got you!)

The main road right outside our shop (from the roundabout along Keburn street and further) is closed from today until 30th October.

If you’re coming to see us, you might want to leave a little earlier than usual — your sat nav might throw a tantrum, and nobody wants a pre-eye-test detour adventure 😅

We’re still open as normal, and ready to help you see clearly — even if the roads aren’t! 👓💙

👁️ June is Cataract Awareness Month

Cataracts are one of the most common causes of sight loss in Scotland but early detection can make all the difference.

We are raising awareness for Scottish residents to attend regular NHS-funded eye examinations help identify cataracts early and ensure timely referral and management.

Don’t wait for symptoms to get worse. Book your free NHS eye exam with your local optometrist today.

12/05/2025

Tomorrow (Tuesday 13th May 2025) the practice will be closed from 1pm for staff training.
Sorry for any inconvenience caused.

We will reopen as usual at 9am on Wednesday.

🌟 Healthy Vision Month – See Well, Live Well! 🌟

🌟 Healthy Vision Month – See Well, Live Well! 🌟
May is Healthy Vision Month, a time to raise awareness about the importance of eye health and encourage healthy habits that protect your vision.

👓 Top Tips for Healthy Vision:

Get Regular Eye Exams – Early detection of eye conditions can prevent serious problems later.

Eat for Your Eyes – Incorporate foods rich in vitamins A, C, and E, as well as omega-3 fatty acids (think leafy greens, nuts, and fish).

Protect Your Eyes from UV Rays – Wear sunglasses with 100% UV protection to shield your eyes from harmful rays.

Give Your Eyes a Break – Follow the 20-20-20 rule: every 20 minutes, take a 20-second break, and look at something 20 feet away.

💬 Share your eye health tips with us in the comments below or book an eye exam today to ensure your eyes stay healthy for years to come!

McCabe Opticians 👓

Following the retirement of Tony and Mary McCabe in December 2024, Nicola Barton and Lynn Smith are proud to carry on the legacy of McCabe Opticians!

Tony and Mary were truly loved by the Barrhead community, known not only for their expertise but also for their warmth and care over the years. Having had the privilege of working alongside them, Nicola and Lynn are committed to upholding the same values – providing exceptional eye care with the personal, friendly service that patients have come to know and trust. 💜

While Nicola and Lynn are excited to introduce some fresh ideas and new eyewear brands, the heart of the practice remains unchanged – with the same familiar faces ready to welcome you!

Whether you're a long-time patient or visiting for the first time, McCabe Opticians look forward to welcoming you through the doors as they begin this exciting new chapter.
