๐Ÿ’ง Dry Eye Masterclass Update! ๐Ÿ‘๏ธ

Last week, Sarah-Jane headed to the ABDO Resource Centre in Birmingham for an intensive Dry Eye Masterclass. The day was packed with expert insights, practical training, and tips on how to set up dedicated dry eye clinics.

From learning how to assess the tear film more efficiently to experiencing life as the patient herself, Sarah-Jane has fine tuned her skills and brushed up on the latest research and tips to bring back to our practice. Sheโ€™s now busy behind the scenes with homework and planning โ€” all to launch our very own Dry Eye Clinic in the New Year. ๐Ÿ‘€โœจ

Relief is coming soon for those struggling with dry, irritated eyes โ€” watch this space!

๐ŸŒž Good morning everyone, and happy Monday!

We know our opening hours have been a little bit erratic over the last couple of weeks as weโ€™ve navigated being a bit short-handed (plus school holidays and staff annual leave). Thank you so much for bearing with us โ€” we really appreciate your patience and understanding. ๐Ÿ’›

This week is also a little bit disrupted as Sarah-Jane is away on a course today (Monday), so weโ€™ll be closed today.
Weโ€™ll reopen as normal from 9:00 a.m. on Tuesday.

๐Ÿ•˜ Opening hours this week:

Tuesday: 9:00 a.m. โ€“ 1:00 p.m. / 2:00 p.m. โ€“ 7:00 p.m.

Wednesday โ€“ Friday: 9:00 a.m. โ€“ 1:00 p.m. / 2:00 p.m. โ€“ 5:00 p.m.

Thank you again for your understanding โ€” it really means a lot to us. We are working to resolve this situation and hope to fully return to normal working hours as soon as we possibly can. We look forward to seeing you soon! ๐Ÿ‘“๐Ÿ’™

๐Ÿ‚ Looking for some autumn inspiration?

The clocks have gone back, the leaves are turning, and autumn is officially here. ๐Ÿ

If youโ€™ve refreshed your wardrobe for the season, why not give your eyewear wardrobe a little update too?

Check out some of our autumn pieces โ€” crafted from high-quality acetate in beautifully blended colours, designed to turn heads and attract compliments. โœจ

If you have to wear glasses, why not embrace them with eyewear thatโ€™s as stylish as you are? ๐Ÿ‘“

๐ŸŽ‰ Weโ€™re officially FIVE! ๐Ÿฅณ

Today marks five amazing years since we took over M Shepherd Optometrists and opened our doors โ€” and what a journey itโ€™s been! From launching in the middle of the pandemic (not quite the party start we imagined!) to growing into a thriving practice filled with wonderful patients and an even more wonderful team, we couldnโ€™t be more grateful. ๐Ÿ’›

A massive thank you to everyone who supports us, recommends us, and trusts us with your eyecare and eyewear โ€” you truly make it all worthwhile. ๐Ÿ‘“โœจ

Weโ€™ve loved developing our spectacle ranges over the years, and now have a huge collection โ€” from plain and functional, to 3D printed, to loud and vibrant! Whatever your style, we aim to deliver good value, great quality, and friendly service โ€” and thatโ€™s our commitment to you. โค๏ธ

Weโ€™ve even ventured overseas to hand-pick collections we know Long Stratton will love! ๐ŸŒ๐Ÿ’ซ

Huge shoutout to Paula and Karen, the warm and friendly faces who make the practice feel so welcoming and are always quick to pop the kettle on. And a mention to my mum, Yvonne, who some of you have met when sheโ€™s jumped in to lend a hand when we get a little short (or Paula goes on holiday ๐Ÿ˜‚)โ€” we couldnโ€™t do it without her! ๐Ÿ’•

Weโ€™re constantly refining what we do to make sure you get the very best care โ€” with some exciting new technology developments on the way to help screen your vision and overall health, plus some beautiful new eyewear ranges launching in the new year (watch this space ๐Ÿ‘€).

And because five years definitely deserves a celebrationโ€ฆ ๐Ÿฅ‚
Weโ€™ll soon be hosting a combined belated birthday & early Christmas party โ€” and youโ€™re all invited! ๐ŸŽ„๐ŸŽ‚ Details coming soon!

Hereโ€™s to five years of clearer vision, community spirit, and stylish specs โ€” and to many more to come! ๐Ÿฅณ๐Ÿ‘“๐Ÿ’™

Not a normal week in the office this week. Thank you to my wonderful colleagues and friends Karen and Paula for making my birthday extra special! ๐ŸŽ‚๐ŸŽˆ They treated me to a day off, snuck in to decorate, and even surprised me with some beautiful gifts โ€” and can we take a moment to appreciate how perfectly they nailed the birthday card? ๐Ÿ˜‚

We ventured into the city yesterday and tried the new Mowgli restaurant โ€” a big hit all round and a definite thumbs up from us! ๐Ÿ‘

Weโ€™re back to work from 9am tomorrow and looking forward to seeing all our lovely patients. Happy Sunday! ๐Ÿ‘“๐Ÿ’–

Your face does a lot for youโ€”it's only fair your glasses return the favour.
Weโ€™re talking comfort, compliments, and clarityโ€ฆ without the wallet wobble.
No credit checks, no interest, no drama. Just fab frames and flexible payments.

14/10/2025

It's a Tuesday and you know what that means ๐Ÿฐ ๐Ÿ“บ

๐ŸŽญ Who wears it best?

We know Paula usually keeps things classicโ€ฆ but sheโ€™s stepped out of her comfort zone to try this bold Face ร  Face Paris frame ๐Ÿ’โ€โ™€๏ธ

Karen? Sheโ€™s never met a colourful frame she didnโ€™t love ๐Ÿ’ƒ and she rocks them.

And Prue Leith? Well, sheโ€™s been serving this exact look on The Great British Bake Off ๐Ÿฐ๐Ÿ‘“

We think this frame is a showstopper of the spectacle world โ€” and Prue might just take Star Baker for style ๐Ÿ‘‘
