About Us
It’s not uncommon for us to see three generations of the same family
All the directors at our practices have years of previous experience working in optics, including time in corporate chain opticians, which led each of us to feel disillusioned by a service that seemed rushed, impersonal and target-led. We all chose a career in optics because of its combination of science, skill and patient care, and so were soon driven to set up our own practice in order to provide a quality of service that was more in line with our own ethos and personal values.
All four of our practices were established from scratch: the first, Uppingham Road Eyecare in 1997, with Syston Eyecare following just six months later and both Kingsthorpe Eyecare and Blaby Eyecare after that. Some of the staff who joined us at the outset are still part of the team today, and we’re proud of the reputation and relationships we have built up with our patients over the years.
It’s not just our team members that have stayed with us though; many patients have also become friends. Our client base has steadily grown through word of mouth and local recommendations and as a result,we now frequently see three generations of the same family, with some of our original patients still returning to us with their children.
So what can you expect when you visit one of our practices? We pride ourselves on continuing to offer the personal, comfortable and tailored service we set out to provide, and we hope to make your eye care experience as enjoyable as possible. Our staff are all exceptionally knowledgeable but also honest, impartial and always willing to assist wherever they can. Whether you’re not sure of your options when it comes to eyewear, or just need a second opinion when you’re choosing your new specs, we’re here to help.
