Since then, the ethos has remained unchanged yet the practice has evolved. From the outset, specialist clinical services have been available in ocular surface disease, visual stress and advanced contact lenses. As the evidence base for the management of myopia (short sight) progression has grown significantly a myopia management clinic was introduced in 2017.
2020 marked further evolution. With advanced instrumentation and in collaboration with experienced Consultant Ophthalmic Surgeon, Mr Thomas Ressiniotis the practice can now manage an increased range of ocular conditions both medically and surgically. I am currently appointed as a Specialist Clinical Optometrist at the University Hospitals of North Midlands NHS Trust.

The myopia management clinic was introduced as a result of the increasing body of evidence that exists with the use of specialist contact lenses in short sighted (myopic) children. Specifically, certain types of multifocal contact lenses and Orthokeratology (Ortho-K) have been shown to reduce the rate of lengthening in the myopic eye of children in a number of studies.
Imagine a vision correction that works while you sleep. Imagine waking up to clear, comfortable vision in the morning, without the need to wear specs or contact lenses during the day. Well, imagine no more. EyeDream, a form of orthokeratology (ortho-k), corrects your vision while you sleep. Simply remove the custom lenses upon waking and enjoy a world of clear, natural vision throughout the day.
Our contact lens ethos is a simple one. To fit contact lenses that result in the optimum blend of both comfort and visual performance whilst maintaining excellent ocular health for the patient. The tear film which is responsible for keeping the eye moist and lubricated is also evaluated using a range of techniques.

I had the most comprehensive eye test and examination that I have ever received in 60 years of wearing glasses! I was made aware of the extent of cataract in one eye.
Mr Warwick promptly referred me to a consultant who took me to the next stage - a further detailed review of my eyes, understanding the cataract and the treatment available.
Mr Warwick followed up after the consultant appointment. He answered my questions and treated me with respect and great care. I thoroughly recommend him.

I was trying to book an appointment to various places for an eye health test as I had a painful, unexplained issue with my eyes. I couldn't find anything available. James Ernest optometrist was suggested as an option. I called and although there was no available appointments, after I explained my situation I was invited for a test in-between his other appointments. I was very grateful and the service was excellent! Would definitely recommend!!

The best eye test I've ever received, hands down. Brad is professional and proficient, and that's reflected in the test, the prescription and the aftercare.
I've been matched with a set of specs that have made the world of difference to my vision. There was no hard sell, quite the opposite. I spent money that I'd usually have spent getting thinner lenses on getting better lenses.

My eye exam at James Ernest Optometry was the best I have ever experienced. Brad Warwick is professional yet personable, thorough and informative.
I was most appreciative to have Brad discover that my prescription was inaccurately prescribed too strong by more than two points. I had had that prescription for years and it went undetected by two previous optometrists in the United States. Thanks to a very thorough exam and subsequently new prescription, I no longer have to strain my eyes, nor do I get tired wearing my contacts.
I will definitely be returning to James Ernest for future eye appointments

I decided to visit James Ernest Optometry as I was dissatisfied with the service typically received at high street chain opticians. I was delighted to receive a comprehensive eye examination with a thorough consultation about my options to correct my vision.
I was introduced to orthokeratology lenses; these are lenses you wear overnight which re-shape your cornea leaving you with perfect vision throughout the day. I had never considered this option previously but now I can’t imagine my life without these lenses. The freedom to not worry about contact lenses or glasses during the day is astonishing

I had recently booked an eye test at James Ernest Optometry and had a such a great experience. Having wearing glasses since a child I visited various opticians in Poland, Scotland and England. I was amazed to find such a professional and high standards optical practice in … Harborne. The optician -Brad took his time and examine my eyes in every possible way. First time in my life I felt that I was not rushed while having my eye test done. The optician was great - thorough, explained what he is doing, double check things and talked me through what my options are. I received not only advice on

Excellent service received from a polite and engaging optometrist who guided me through and explained every element of the examination thoroughly. A very generous amount of time was spent on the examination itself, ensuring that my new prescription was accurate and comfortable. The practice also has a varied range of styles to choose from, and the optometrist helped me to select the most appropriate product for my needs. A superb local business which I would highly recommend to others.
