What is an optometrist?

An optometrist is the highest level of optician and as the name implies "measure eyes".

How often should I have my eyes tested?

Bearing in mind that most of us go to dentist twice a year we advise an annual eye-test.  Are teeth more precious than eyes?

Why do contact lens wearers have to join Platinum Plan?

You will be required to join PLATINUM HO~ME plan if you are a contact lens wearer, as the fee includes all your various eye checks. The fee is £9.50 monthly payable by Direct Debit. This is our highest level of care and the discount you then get is a substantial 25% all goods (spectacles, contact lenses and accessories). Included is a full annual eye-test, all your scheduled contact lens checks and any emergency visits.

By separating the fees for our professional times, experience and skill, we can then supply our optical goods at a very competitive discount so we can compete with other contact lens suppliers that do not have our professional overheads. Indeed you are welcome to buy your contact lenses direct from supermarkets or the web. We will facilitate this if you wish.

How does one spell Baddeley?

It is not David Bradley, David Badeley, David Baddley, David Badderley or even David Badly (as opposed to Goodly).  It is Baddeley.
