Protective sports eyewear is designed for maximum impact, strength and protection with the flexibility and comfort to engage in sports activities.

Mackereths are proud to be associated with many of the world's finest optical companies. The latest lens technology allows lenses to be made thinner and lighter than ever before, making spectacles look better and feel more comfortable.
Hard coatings can be added to aid scratch resistance and lenses may be anti-reflection coated to reduce glare and remove annoying surface reflections - this can make lenses look almost invisible and can be especially helpful for night driving and computer use.Lenses can be tinted or supplied in photochromic material that lightens or darkens depending upon the light conditions.

I usually have only nice things to say about this opticians. In my experience they have always been very nice and accommodating.
But today I rang to arrange a routine appointment for myself and my two children, only to be informed that they will only accommodate two people at one time. It is a 40 minute round trip for me and obviously was not impress at the prospect of having to do that twice. Such a shame that this the case as they have been my family opticians for about 20 years. Your policies need reviewing as this is not going to work for families.
