The process includes a detailed discussion of medical history, visual needs, and lifestyle to tailor recommendations, ensuring optimal vision correction and long-term eye health.

We offer precision contact lens fittings for various prescriptions, including bifocals and specialist lenses. Our process involves trial lenses, follow-up appointments, and training on insertion/removal. We stock daily, monthly, and gas-permeable lenses, ensuring comfort and clarity for all users, including children and first-time wearers.

I've tried booking an appointment on their site, I've tried calling, I even went there and it was closed(on a day that it was supposedly open). I couldn't get to anyone at all.

I used to suffer with persistent headaches and thought that was just me. I thought my eyesight was good so didnt realise the importance of getting my eyes tested and wearing my glasses but since Alison tested me and explained how my eyes were constantly straining to focus and it was likely causing my headaches. Since wearing my glasses my headaches have disappeared. I would highly recommend Lindsay and Johnson for their friendliness and great care.

Lindsay and Johnson have been looking after my eyes since I was a little girl and I cannot recommend them highly enough. The experience they provide is personal, caring and honest. They have a brilliant selection of glasses and are superb with contact lenses too. There is nowhere else that can provide such a fantastic family friendly optician service.

Friendly and helpful staff. Alison was clearly very knowledgeable and experienced. The appointment wasn't at all rushed and everything was thoroughly investigated and explained. Also seemed to have a good choice of frames to suit a range of budgets.

Lindsey and Johnson have been my opticians for a number of years and I have only good things to say about them. From the receptionists who are friendly, knowledgeable and helpful to the optician who is extremely professional and explains all options clearly, enabling easy decisions. They have a great choice for frames too for optical glasses and sunglasses. It is so nice to go to an independent optician where the service is so personal. I am also pleasantly surprised that their frames are so affordable; when I compared them to national companies their prices are actually cheaper on similar frames
