Question for you.
When you were measured up for your last pair of glasses, who took the measurements?

At Robinson Opticians we only employ fully qualified Dispensing Opticians to see you after your test.

Dispensing Opticians typically study at least 3 years on a course equivalent to a degree , allowing them to legally dispense to children and vulnerable adults, can refer , and amend prescriptions where deemed necessary.

Correct measurements are critical, especially when it comes to Bifocals and varifocals. If these are incorrect, then despite your sight test being spot on, you will struggle.

Not all practices employ Dispensing Opticians to see you after test. Dispensing Opticians are registered with ABDO (The Association of British Dispensing Opticians) insured and have to be registered with the GOC in order to practice and carry the legally protected title FBDO

We are proud to be affiliated to ABDO, ensuring a high level of care to our patients.

School vision tests are not the same, and look for different issues. All children are entitled to a free eye test under 16 years of age.

Make sure your child is enjoying the best vision they can at school!
Call us on 0121 453 2146.

Many parents think school screenings are the same as opticians’ eye tests, but that’s not true. A school screening is a basic test that checks whether your child has reduced vision in one or both eyes, and is not the same as a full eye test with an optometrist (or optician). 👁

The myth on Yellow tinted glasses for night driving!

These glasses which you may have seen being touted on the internet and Facebook as helping to reduce dazzle and glare from head lamps at night are not recommended.

It’s certainly the case that more drivers are stating that they are experiencing problems from headlight glare, but consistent studies to date have shown that there is no scientific evidence to support the claim that these off the peg, often cheaply made specs reduce glare at night. Any form of a tint on glasses for night time use is dangerous, and would reduce the drivers ability to see pedestrians!

If you are struggling with night driving your first port of call should be your Optician to check your vision, and to rule out conditions that impair night driving, such as cataracts or it could be you have an astigmatism in your prescription which requires corrective lenses.

The AA and RAC clearly state on their websites that such products should NOT be used at night.
