Have you met Emma Darnell yet? 👋

With 16 years working in practice, Emma knows exactly why patients hesitate, walk away, or only ever buy one pair. And she’s here to help your team change that! 👓

At Optimum RX Lens Specialists, we take on the prescriptions others won’t. Tints? Therapeutic tints? Endless options.
The more you share, the more your patients trust you.

Emma’s training isn’t about scripts or hard selling, it’s about better conversations → better dispensing → happier patients.

✅ More revenue for your practice
✅ Happier teams
✅ Happier patients

🎉Meet the Team Monday

Meet Jack Price, Jack is a member of the Coating Team and really loves being part of Optimum RX Lens Specialists.

His favourite part of the job? “Everyone’s nice, so it doesn’t feel like working!

A little fun fact about Jack: he can’t handle spice 🌶️… so maybe don’t challenge him to a curry-off anytime soon!

Looking ahead, he’s super excited to go to Miami to watch Scotland in the World Cup ⚽

When it comes to time away from work, the last thing he really enjoyed watching was Sinners,

And why else does Jack love working at Optimum RX Lens Specialists?

“There’s no weekend work, clear shift patterns, and it’s very social.”

We love that he’s enjoying the team spirit as much as the work!

Our Story

In 2011 the business underwent a transformation that included the appointment of a new Managing Director and the creation of a purpose-built laboratory facility. The laboratory uses state-of-the-art surfacing, polishing, cleaning and lacquering technology together with some of the industry’s most advanced processes and equipment to ensure a consistently high quality service.

In addition to developing and manufacturing its own brands, Optimum also supplies leading branded lenses too – providing a convenient and cost-effective one-stop-shop for customers. We’re one of only a small number of independent laboratories in UK to do this. That’s why Optimum has grown into the lens coating supplier of choice for both independent opticians and well-known, high street ophthalmic stores.

As well as our commitment to quality, our processes also ensure efficiency. On average 90% of all orders are coated and dispatched by the next working day. We can also offer an even speedier, express delivery service to fulfil any urgent requests.

Through hard work and our excellent reputation, we now work in every corner of the UK – with opticians and laboratories alike.
