77 Thoroughfare was converted by Ron Hurlock from residential to an ophthalmic opticians practice in 1971. Andrew Field bought the business in 1989 and employed Alex in 1992 for his training year. Alex continued to work with and learn from Andrew and Ron until their retirement and then took on the business.

Spectacles have advanced greatly from the early days of frames designed purely as a functional necessity, to an art form which can make them a joy to wear. Many designs are exciting without famous names. We stock a wide range of frames with prices starting from 10. We have frames available from the following designers: Oakley, Ray Ban, Ralph Lauren, William Morris, Wolf, Stepper, Silhouette, Flexon and many others.

Eyeptactice is wonderful. They are so helpful, supportive and kind. If my glasses break they quickly sort it out, no problem. Through covid they looked after me and also do helpful. I have been attend the eyepractice for over thirty years and would highly recommend them.

Having never worn glasses before and knew it was time to be checked out properly, I was booked in for an appointment today, eyes checked out under the Covid 19 rules all very clean No contact made with the optician, I was in a separate room all made very comfortable. I was able to choose my glasses at a very reasonable cost, unlike a past experience at specsavers, so thankyou for a great service under unusual times

I've been going here for 30 years, some staff have changed but the quality of service and care hasn't. Thoroughly recommend for all ages.

Discovered by accident - a really thorough eye examination, and the only opticians that I have found who can actually manufacture the special size lenses needed for my target shooting glasses on the premises. Thus instead of waiting whilst the information was sent elsewhere and returned, they were ready practically next day.

I've been visiting here for the last 3 years. Couldn't recommended these guys high enough. Customer service is fantastic. The entire team are friendly, flexible, knowledgeable and thorough. The prices compare well with the High Street chains with the bonus of attentive and individual service.
I won't go anywhere else.
Thank you guys....
