It's National Sunglasses Day this Wednesday 27th June giving you the perfect opportunity to call in and view our great range of sunglasses from designers such as Maui Jim, Ray Ban, Oakley, Jimmy Choo and many more.
Like and share this post and we will offer you 10% off any pair of sunglasses until the end of June!
Protecting your eyes in this weather is so important as we spend much more time outdoors exposing us to the dangers of the sun's UV rays so our sunglasses offer the highest protection available.
Celebrate the return of the sun with a beautiful pair of new sunglasses. We have the very latest ranges from around the world now in stock from Ray- Ban, Oakley, Ted Baker, Maui Jim and many more including our Ocean Blue range which start from as little as £79 including prescription!
Your child’s sight is precious.
Good vision helps them to learn, play and communicate with the world around them. Yet there are more than a million children in the UK with undetected vision problems. (eye health uk)
Children’s eyes develop continually so caring for them especially in the early years can help lay the foundations for good vision that lasts a lifetime.
... There are lots of simple things that you can do to help keep kids’ eyes and vision healthy.
Having regular eye tests annually for under eights and every two years thereafter (unless you’re advised otherwise by the optometrist) is a great place to start.
Having a regular eye test will ensure any problems such as childhood conditions like squint and amblyopia (lazy eye) and myopia (short-sightedness) are picked up early.
The sooner problems are identified the better the outcome. Remember eye tests are free on the NHS for all children under 16 years of age.
Eating fruit and vegetables also helps ensure young eyes get the nutrients they need to grow healthily. Foods like tomatoes, melon, grapes and blueberries as well as fish, chicken, eggs and whole grains are packed with eye-friendly nutrients.
If your child needs spectacles we offer a large range of free frames as well as designer models from Ray Ban, Oakley and more as well as the ever popular Star Wars, Disney Princess, Peppa Pig, Marvel Avengers, Spider-Man and Frozen branded frames.
Call us on 01942608624, email us at gillopticians@gmail.com or pop into the practice for more information.
