Our lovely patient Sarah visited for her routine appointments this week and opted to have a Styling & Colour session with Abbey.

This session gave Sarah advice on which colours would suit her features and also her personality, along with the best frame shapes and fits for her facial characteristics.

These sessions with Abbey can be really helpful and confidence boosting when choosing your new specs.

You do not have to be a patient with us already to book these sessions. There is no obligation to buy.

The appointment is complimentary when purchasing frames over £150 within 30 days of the appointment, or £35 with no purchase.

Available at both Eye Folk and Eye Deal - book online or phone us if you can't see a suitable appointment.

Myth: children will tell you if they cannot see properly.

Fact: most children have no idea their vision is not normal, because they have nothing to compare it to.

Regular eye tests are vital for a child's learning and development. The good news? All children are entitled to a FREE NHS eye test, plus a voucher towards glasses if needed. ☺️

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.
