Hear better in noisy environments with our invisible hearing solution, hidden within the frames of prescription-ready glasses.

Today, on World Hearing Day, we’re reminded that hearing support enriches the ways we connect. Clearer sound makes conversations, experiences and relationships more vibrant.​

According to the World Health Organization, 1.6 billion people live with hearing loss, and around 1.2 billion experience mild‑to‑moderate levels — often “hearing well enough”, yet still struggling to fully engage in everyday moments.​

With Nuance Audio Glasses, our goal is to help these 1.2 billion people feel more confident, included and present.​

On World Hearing Day 2026, we highlight mild‑to‑moderate hearing loss as a condition that deserves proactive management to support communication and everyday social interaction.​

World Hearing Day highlights the importance of protecting our hearing and the wider role that sensory health plays in overall wellbeing.

Our sight and sound are senses that go hand-in-hand, supporting communication and quality of life. Regular NHS-funded eye examinations contribute to early detection of eye disease and wider health conditions, helping people stay active and connected within their communities.

At Optometry Scotland, we continue to champion a preventative, local approach to eye care that supports people’s sensory health across over the course of their lives.

Calling all contact lens users and those who need to replace their spectacles before heading away over the festive period! 🎄🎁

For all daily or monthly lens users we are now giving a two week timeline from order to delivery to us, for those of you needing extended range prescriptions, you will need to order in the next few days to *hopefully* have them before Christmas.

For spectacle lens orders, we are already seeing delays so expect a wait of two weeks, anything less is a Brucies Bonus!

If you have any queries regarding an order give us a call on 01851 704200
