HEAD wants to see your eyes well protected, but also wants to give you an innovative look that is comfortable and functional.
Children's eyes need protection from UV light even more so than adults. But there just isn't the choice or quality out there to encourage them to wear sunglasses. It all started when ophthalmologist Julie Diem Le went out to buy a pair of sunglasses for her niece. Knowing the damage the sun can do to young eyes, she wanted lenses that offered maximum protection.
Stylish, laid back and full of attitude, Lee Cooper Eyewear is the ultimate choice if you want your fashion statements to leave a lasting impression. Luxurious yet wearable, these frames are strong and bold, with a nod to true British spirit. Having started life as a workwear label over a hundred years ago, Lee Cooper is the brand for the style-savvy who like their look to be noticeable, tough and enduring.

Excellent service. Very efficient eye test and then they fixed my broken glasses (from a large high-street competitor) free of charge whilst I chose a new frame. Highly recommended.

I wish when I was a youngster that the opticians my parents took me to were half as good as this one. My little boy was referred to the hospital after some abnormalities with his school eye test. The hospital referral naturally was going to take a while so the hospital recommend Tombs and Allen in the mean time. Considering he needed eyes drops and all sorts of unusual contraptions (that a 5 year old may find intimidating) Brodie the optician was better than outstanding. She made him feel so comfortable and her natural calm and bubbly nature I could tell really put my usually nervous boy at ease

The opthalmology department, at QA hospital, told me that this was the right place to take one of my children, for tests and spectacles.
That was 25 years ago and we, as a family, wouldn't go anywhere else.
Consistently top quality people, advice, equipment, service and products.

Impressed. First visit yesterday, based on a friend's recommendation. Have always used "high street" opticians before for my annual eye test. The eye test was very thorough and I was pleasantly surprised to be told I didn't need a new pair of specs because my current ones are o.k. No "hard sell" here to buy a new pair. Previous high street opticians always told me I needed a new pair when I wasn't convinced there was always a necessity. I have no hesitation in recommending this independent optician practice.

We have been using Tombs & Allen since they were recommended by a hospital opthalmologist for our children when they were babies.
Service is always personal and friendly, especially with children but also with adults.
