Today we are celebrating. Laura has passed all of her ABDO exams and is now a qualified dispensing optician! Qualification takes 3 years and includes a number of practical and theory examinations. Well done Laura.

You shouldn’t change your lens type, wearing schedule, replacement frequency, modality, brand, solutions or care procedures without the recommendation of your eyecare practitioner. Don’t forget that you still need regular contact lens checks. #LoveYourLenses
It’s #loveyourlenses week! It is important to remember to wash your hands before handling your contact lenses. @YourLenses

Very proud of our contact lens optician Magda Peppa, celebrating her @abdocollege graduation today at Canterbury Cathedral!
Hello folks. From April 1st, we will still require staff and patients to wear face masks when inside the practice. This is because we are a healthcare setting. Thank you for your cooperation. 😷
