Looking back…

Looking back…

“Optics has changed a lot in my lifetime. I met Sarah my wife while studying Optometry in Manchester in the late 1980s and we bought our own business in 1996 in Woodseats and in 2005 we took on another practice in Broomhill and moved up to Crosspool in 2011.

In Europe, the first glasses were made in 1284 in Italy. The 1980s was when the most change occurred in Optics: the first laser eye surgery took place, advertising was allowed and prices for spectacles could appear in shop windows.”
