How Independent Optician Practices Are Transforming the Eyewear Industry

Hi, my name is Nicky and I work part-time here at The Spectacle Factory.

I am fortunate to have over 36 years of experience in the optical industry in the independent sector. I love all aspects from dispensing, specializing in Zeiss lenses, to management. I am very passionate about supporting our independent practice.

Why, you might ask? Well, firstly because I believe we, as your independent eye care practice, are the best people to care for your eye health needs.

We keep your interests at the heart of everything that we do. No pressured selling, sourcing the right lenses and frames for your needs and budget rather than being dictated to buy from head offices that are target and profit-driven.

As an independent practice, there are no shareholders to pay, no marketing department to fund, so all our prices reflect this, keeping costs to you, the client, as competitive as we can while providing you with the best value for money and, more importantly, a personal service. We are also able to offer NHS eye examinations.

Here at The Spectacle Factory, the people who see you on a day-to-day basis are often the owners of the practice, like Robert and James. That continuity is important as we are able to get to know you and build a close relationship to provide you with the best solutions for your eye care by taking time to assess all needs, which often change as we get older.

Pay us a visit and we look forward to meeting you in person soon.

Bye for now,

Nicky
