“Eglinton Eyecare provided me with a very professional service and their range and quality of glasses is excellent, something I didn’t quite expect to find in a small community opticians.”

“Our Year 4 children enjoy a very informative presentation – carefully researched and very relevant to their age and stage, about the components and workings of the eye.

Children enjoy the opportunity to participate in the many Competitions organised by Eglinton Eyecare and Parents and children feel very special at the ‘Award Ceremonies’ following.
Parents and Grandparents love viewing the childrens’ work displayed in the Waiting area and of course this does much to raise the profile of Eglinton Primary School.

Because of the relationship and rapport developed with the children and the regular opportunities they have to visit to leave off Competition entries, children are not anxious or distressed when they visit as a patient. Recently a staff member met with School to discuss and explore coloured overlays, a tool to support children struggling with reading because of dyslexia difficulties. How reassuring it was to hear about the planned professional development for a number of key staff within Eglinton Eyecare and that staff were proactive in meeting with teachers to identify the needs of our children. We were able to discuss also the impact of changes to the teaching of reading and the implications when testing younger patients using a letter board. “

“……I cannot say enough about the staff in Eglinton Eyecare, they treat my son with great respect, and explain everything to him.

Cheryl always has a smile and pleasant greeting for us and makes what could be a very difficult visit for a child with Autism (and his Mum) into a very pleasurable visit.

Parents of children with Autism find it very difficult to visit lots of place but I have always had a pleasurable experience due the staff and never dread this visit. I just wish every store/shop/opticians had the same attitude as Cheryl and the rest of the staff as it would make life so much easier for parents and children…………”

“…….Overall I am very happy with everything about Eglinton Eyecare. It has friendly staff, offers a professional service; it is convenient and has a range of opening hours. They are aware that they are part of the community, not just a business, and are keen to support other organisations and educate the local children. I would recommend them to anyone…….”

“…….Just a quick email to thank your for the recent care and attention given by the Team at Eglinton. As this was my 1st but certainly not the last appointment for eyecare with yourselves I came with the preconceived “should have gone to “conveyor belt inspection with 2 pairs of glasses. How wrong was I?
A process was laid out, which I understood, followed by a thorough and fully explained examination without time limitation. Not once was I rushed or made to feel my time allotted slot had ended…….”
