👀 Your eyes tell a bigger story than you think.
Regular eye exams do far more than check if you need new glasses—they can detect early signs of conditions like glaucoma, diabetes, high blood pressure, and macular degeneration before symptoms even appear.

Most vision changes happen gradually and can be easy to miss. A routine test ensures you’re seeing clearly and that your overall eye health is protected.

✨ Book your eye test today and give your eyes the care they deserve.

This Road Safety Week, we’re highlighting a serious truth: winter makes driving far more dangerous. More darkness. More glare. More risk.
Your vision is one of the most important safety tools you have - and even minor eyesight changes can impact how quickly you react or how clearly you see hazards.
Before winter conditions get tougher, book your eye test at Jaysons Opticians and make sure your vision is ready for the road

👁️➡️🚘 SAFE DRIVING STARTS WITH HEALTHY EYES! LET’S CHECK YOUR VISION BEFORE YOUR NEXT TRIP.

Most people check their mirrors, fuel, and tyres…
But very few check the one thing they rely on MOST while driving — their eyesight!

Here’s a detailed checklist every driver should follow:
✨ Can you spot road signs early enough?
If you have to squint or lean forward, you may need a new prescription.
✨ Do oncoming headlights blind you at night?
This could be glare sensitivity, early cataracts, or dirty lenses/windscreens.
✨ Do you struggle to see clearly in rain or fog?
Contrast sensitivity and clarity matter more than you think.
✨ Are your glasses up to date?
Even a small prescription change can dramatically improve your reaction time.

✨ Do you wear the right eyewear?

Anti-reflective lenses = better night driving

Polarised sunglasses = reduced daytime glare

Spare glasses = essential if you rely on them to drive

✨ Is your windshield clean INSIDE and out?
A dirty inside surface can scatter light and worsen glare.
✨ Have you noticed more eye strain lately?
Long drives + uncorrected vision = headaches and delayed reactions.

Your eyes are your first line of defence on the road — keep them sharp, clear, and protected.

📅 Book your eye test. www.jaysonsopticians.co.uk
👓 Keep your vision road-safe.
🚗 Arrive safely, every time.

💙 World Diabetes Day - Friday 14th November 💙

Today we are raising awareness of the important link between diabetes and eye health.

Diabetes can increase your risk of diabetic retinopathy, glaucoma, and cataracts, but with regular eye examinations these conditions can often be detected early and managed effectively.

At Jaysons Opticians, we use advanced OCT scanning technology to take detailed 3D images of the back of your eyes. This allows us to detect even the smallest changes to your retina long before you notice any symptoms.

Our Eyeplan care scheme makes it easy and affordable to have regular eye health checks including OCT scans whenever you need them.

If you have diabetes, make sure you have your eyes examined at least once a year. Your vision is precious and deserves the best care.

🎆 Protect Your Eyes This Bonfire Night! 👓
Bonfire Night is one of the most exciting evenings of the year — glowing fireworks, crackling bonfires, and sparklers lighting up the night sky. But while it’s a time for celebration, it’s also a night when eye injuries become much more common.
👁️ Why Eye Safety Matters
Every year, hundreds of people across the UK suffer eye injuries caused by fireworks.

🔥 Our Top Eye Safety Tips for Bonfire Night.
Keep your distance. Always watch fireworks from at least 25 metres away and follow the safety guidelines printed on the packaging. The further you are, the lower the risk of sparks or debris reaching your eyes.
🥽 Wear protective eyewear. If you’re lighting fireworks or helping with the display, wear safety glasses. Even small particles or smoke can cause irritation or injury.
🎇 Handle sparklers safely. Sparklers burn at over 1,200°C — that’s hotter than a blowtorch! Always hold them at arm’s length and never give them to young children.
👁️Avoid rubbing your eyes. If you get smoke, ash, or debris in your eyes, don’t rub them — this can make things worse. Instead, rinse gently with clean, lukewarm water and seek advice if irritation persists.
🎆Supervise children closely. Make sure children are always supervised around fireworks and bonfires, and remind them not to pick up spent fireworks or ashes.

👀Be cautious with contact lenses. Contact lenses can trap small particles or smoke, which may cause discomfort. If you’re attending a display, consider wearing glasses for the night instead.

🏥Act quickly if an injury occurs. If something enters the eye or an injury occurs, do not attempt to remove it yourself. Cover the eye lightly, avoid applying pressure, and seek immediate medical attention or visit A&E.

🎇 Enjoy the Show — Safely!
A little preparation goes a long way to keeping your eyes safe this Bonfire Night. If you experience any irritation or injury, our team at Jaysons Opticians is here to help. We can provide advice, emergency appointments, and aftercare to keep your vision protected.

👁️✨ From all of us at Jaysons Opticians have a safe and sparkling Bonfire Night! 🎆

📖 Common signs your child may need an eye check:

👁️Squinting or tilting the head while reading

📚Complaining of headaches or tired eyes

📖Holding books too close or far away

📚Avoiding reading or short attention span during reading time

👁️ A simple eye exam can make a big difference!
Clear vision helps children stay confident, engaged, and excited about reading.
