Worried about your child’s eyesight getting worse every year?

At Eye Folk Opticians, we offer Myopia Management — a range of strategies to help slow down the progression of short-sightedness in children and teens.

Why it matters:
Rapidly progressing myopia can increase the risk of eye health issues later in life, including retinal problems and glaucoma.

Our management options include:
✔ Specialised myopia control contact lenses
✔ Spectacle lenses with myopia-slowing designs
✔ Lifestyle & visual habit advice (time outdoors, screen breaks, lighting)

Early intervention is key — the sooner we start, the better we can help protect your child’s long-term vision.

Book a consultation today and find the right solution for your child.

Struggling with glare when driving at night?

Headlights. Streetlights. Wet roads. Driving in the dark.

Driving can feel more tiring than it should.

That’s where DriveSafe lenses by ZEISS come in.

Designed specifically for driving, these lenses help to:

✔ Reduce glare from oncoming headlights
✔ Improve clarity in low light
✔ Support quicker focus between dashboard and road
✔ Make night driving feel more comfortable

They’re ideal if you:
– Avoid driving at night
– Feel dazzled by headlights
– Notice increased eye strain behind the wheel

Available at:
📍 Eye Deal
📍 Eye Folk Opticians

If driving doesn’t feel as comfortable as it used to, speak to us about whether DriveSafe lenses could help.

Did you know?

The most common form of glaucoma, initially has no symptoms.

Catch the disease early, and you have a great chance of preserving your vision for the years to come.

Make sure you visit the opticians for a check-up at least every 2 years; early detection is key.

Our Mel is retiring (so she says 🤣, we are in denial)

Mel actually retired from optics quite a while ago! But Lucy asked her to come out of retirement and join us at Eye Folk nearly 7 years ago.

Mel has covered holidays and days off for our team in order for us to keep everything running smoothly for our patients.

THANK YOU Mel ❤️
Enjoy your retirement!
