That's why we have an ample stock of frames available in a range of shapes, sizes and colours. Our Dispensing Opticians are specially trained to ensure that your eyewear fits well and is suited to your face shape and lifestyle. Our skilled team will be on hand to calculate vision distances and angles, provide advice on lens options, and perform the adjusting, repairing and fitting of your spectacles.

Situated in Gnosall and Stafford in Staffordshire, we have long-standing relationships with patients from all surrounding areas. In 1969, our Stafford practice first opened its doors to the public. Opened by Jennifer and Peter Mincher-Lockett, this family-run business gained a local reputation for quality care that extended far beyond a simple eye test. Since its humble beginnings in Stafford, the practice has continued to be an important part of the community, and its growing popularity over the space of nearly 50 years has led to multiple expansions to give its patients a greater level of care.

Pre-screening - this screening is carried out by a trained member of staff and usually involves two tests. They measure how well your eyes can focus and the pressure within each eye, which is part of the screening for glaucoma. Consultation - the qualified Optometrist takes details about your vision, your health and medication, your family, personal history and lifestyle to gain a better understanding of your eyesight and requirements.
