When asked, most patients stated that their eyesight was the most important sense to them. Your eyesight is precious and valuable, and it is important to maintain optimal eye health for life. The simple answer is no. Most high street opticians will perform a very basic and competent sight test; however, we believe that your eyes require more than a screening test.
Optima IPL is a drug free and drop free natural light-based treatment, which targets the root causes of dry eye - chronic inflammation. This is an exciting new treatment pathway towards ongoing relief from your Dry Eye. Imagine the freedom from frequent, routine use of moisturising eye drops!
This next-generation, and only US FDA-Approved, IPL technology uses a high-powered, hand-held, computer-controlled handheld unit to deliver an intense, visible, broad-spectrum pulse of light.It has been used safely for several years by ophthalmologists, dermatologists, and aesthetic practitioners. It is not a laser but natural light with a wavelength filter to target the correct skin layer, whereas a laser has only one wavelength.

Safarian and Simon Opticians will now be working alongside The Hearing Care Partnership to provide a full hearing and eyecare service from within our practice in St John's Wood. We will be offering a full range of hearing services which will be carried about by our fully qualified audiologist. This includes free hearing assessments and tinnitus consultations, ear wax removal, hearing protection and the latest hearing aids.
There are hundreds of contact lenses on the market and the choice of what to go for can seem daunting but we will carry out a full assessment and consultation with the patient. We will discuss the various types and establish what the best option is for the individual's lifestyle requirements. Contact lenses don't have to be worn full time and are a great alternative to glasses for sports, social occasions and holidays.
The aim is too slow down myopic (short-sight) changes during childhood. We all know genetics and environmental factors can cause an increase in myopia in children. At Safarian and Simon Opticians, we are delighted to offer the latest innovations in myopia management. MiSight are the first daily disposable lenses proven to slow the progression of myopia (short-sightedness) in children.

I rang the practice on a Monday morning in a panic and was seen immediately! Very quickly Sachin was able to diagnose my problem and reassure me. When you’re a clinician yourself, it’s hard to be a patient! Sachin is brilliant, he knows exactly how to interact and make you part of the decision making process. Explains it all and doesn’t assume things. Listens to you and comes up with a management plan that is realistic and works for you.

I went for my first visit at Safarian & Simon today on a referral of a lovely ophthalmologist and I couldn't have been happier with their excellent care.
I've struggled with blurred vision due to an eye disease for three years now and my doctors have suspected that it might be permanent eye nerve damage.
Mr. Patel was extremely knowledgeable, professional and kind and did a full eye health check with several scans.
I'm so relieved he came to a different conclusion through a nonroutine scan.
I walked out the same day with new glasses and sharp vision for the first time in three years.
I strongly

My first time at the St JW branch and i certainly recommend Safarian & Simon. The whole team are amazing throughout your appointment, helping you choose and the aftercare. For someone who just couldn't make her mind up about frames they were patient and caring. Very happy with the outcome. Thank you so much. 💛

Have been going to this optometrist for about 5 years. I always have a thorough eye exam and love that I can see the history of the state of my eyes over the years. I also brought in some frames that I bought overseas to be lensed. They took the time to explain lense types, associated costs, pros and cons, etc. I really felt like I made a very informed decision when I chose my lenses. I highly recommend Safarian and Simon for a thorough and high quality service
