Mrs Best obtained her BSc (Hons) in Optometry in 1982 (Glasgow). She then undertook research in visual screening of children whilst working in an independent practice in Inverness that liased closely with the local hospital. The opportunity to manage a practice in Newbury for a family-run multiple then afforded Mrs Best the chance to expand her skills in children's eye care/orthoptics and low-vision with Berkshire Eyes Service.

Of course, we want you to look good too and that's why we stock an extensive range of frames in all styles, sizes and price-brackets.

I've been going here for over 10 years. The service has always been excellent. Mrs Best has always explained what's going on during appointments, and kept me updated on any changes to my prescription. I get help choosing the glasses that look best, and there is always a great selection at all prices.

Always enjoy going to Mrs Best's! I'm a student down south but I still only get my eyes tested and buy my glasses from Mrs Best when I'm back visiting home! You know you're remembered by Mrs Best and Leslie and Rachel the receptionists. The eye test is thorough and Mrs Best's use of a projector rather than a fixed chart means I really trust that she can test all my sight faithfully. Their choice of frames is large, giving you plenty of choice, even for someone who needs petite frames and has struggled to find well fitting glasses in the past. When selecting frames, Mrs B or one of the receptionists
