This time of year is full of moments worth savouring, but it can also quietly highlight changes in our vision. Reading cards or menus, adjusting to softer lighting, or noticing eye strain at the end of the day are all common experiences during the festive period.

Often, these small signs are simply a reminder that it’s time for a check-in. A comprehensive eye examination or consultation allows us to assess your vision, review eye health, and discuss options that can make everyday tasks feel comfortable again.

If you’ve noticed a difference, you can book an appointment now via our website and start the new year with clarity and confidence.

There’s something special about helping someone choose eyewear as a gift, especially when it’s done with real thought. Earlier this week, a gentleman visited with photos of a family member, hoping to find a Chanel frame that felt just right for them. Together we explored shapes, colours and details until the perfect pair revealed itself.

When a piece is collected, we present it carefully on a tray so the moment feels considered rather than transactional. It’s a small gesture, but one that reflects the care we aim to bring to every part of the experience — from styling guidance to the final handover.

If you’re choosing eyewear for yourself or someone you love, we’re always here to help you find something meaningful.

We’re always grateful when someone takes the time to share their experience with us. Ben’s kind words about his new varifocals and his Alium frames were a pleasure to read, and we’re delighted to hear how well he’s getting on with them. Thank you, Ben, for your thoughtful review.

If you ever need an adjustment or have any questions about your eyewear, you’re always welcome to pop into the practice.

Finding it harder to see when the lighting drops is more common than many people realise. It can be linked to a number of factors, including changes in contrast sensitivity, early cataracts, prescription shifts, dry eyes or simply lenses that no longer support the demands of evening driving and indoor environments.

A comprehensive examination helps us understand exactly what’s happening. From reviewing your prescription to assessing eye health and discussing lens options designed for improved clarity in low-light conditions, we can guide you towards a solution that genuinely helps day to day.

If this sounds familiar, we recommend booking a sight exam with our clinical team so we can explore the right approach for you.

There is something quietly remarkable about LINDBERG eyewear. Every frame is pared back to its essentials, yet full of thoughtful engineering: ultra-light materials, screwless construction and a level of comfort that feels almost weightless.

This week we’re sharing a few of the pieces currently in our boutique, including models from the n.o.w., strip titanium and acetanium collections. Each brings its own character, whether you prefer translucent fronts, sculpted acetate or the precision of laser-cut titanium.

These are frames for those who appreciate subtle distinction rather than overt statement, and they remain some of the most considered designs we fit.

If you’d like to explore the collection in person, our team is always happy to guide you through the details.

Changes in the weather can make driving difficult fast — fog, rain and sudden low sun all put extra pressure on your vision. And when 90% of driving decisions rely on what you see, even the slighted dip in clarity can affect your confidence on the road.

That’s why adaptable lenses can make all the difference.

Our photochromic lens options — including Transitions® technology — respond instantly to changing light, helping to reduce glare by up to 85% outdoors while remaining clear indoors or at night. No swapping glasses, no extra steps… just seamless, safer vision wherever the road takes you.

Custom-made to your prescription and lifestyle, they’re an ideal choice for everyday driving comfort and confidence.

If you’d like to explore your options, we’re here to help.
