| Tony Samuels BSc(Hons)FCOptom - Ophthalmic Optician | |
|
After studying Ophthalmic Optics at Cardiff University for 3 years, followed by a year training in London, Tony joined the family business in 1977. His father suffered with Multiple Sclerosis and continued working for as long as he could till he had to retire in 1988.Since then he has continued the tradition of creating a professional yet personal and friendly service.
Tony is the Chairman of the Walsall Local Optical Committee. He has a keen interest in Low Vision. He helped set up and run the Low Vision Aid clinic at Walsall Manor Hospital where we supply various specialist magnifiers etc. are supplied to those registered as Blind or Partially-Sighted. It is a common misconception that blind people can see nothing at all - although their sight can't be fully restored, usually some difference can be made. Diabetes is one of the major causes of blindness in the U.K.. Tony helped set up the Walsall Diabetic Eye Screening project. Tony is one of only a few Opticians in the area who carries out visual field testing on behalf of the Driving & Vehicle Licensing Centre in Swansea. |

| Martyn Horton FBDO - Dispensing Optician | |
|
Martyn's expertise will advise you on the best choice of lenses and frames from the hundreds available, to suit your lifestyle, prescription and budget perfectly......a stylish pair of glasses doesn't have to cost a fortune.
Our demonstration units and Video imaging system can show the appearance of your frames, as well as the thickness, tint and coatings of your lenses before you make a decision -especially useful if you can't see very well without your specs! Martyn can also advise on the different types of specialist spectacles and frames that are available - imagine the freedom and convenience of a pair of prescription swimming goggles, ski visors, cycling specs, or even a squash mask. Why not call in for an absolutely free consultation? You don't have to have an eye examination. Feel free to come in and have a look round - we will even professionally clean your glasses for you in our ultrasonic cleaner whilst you are here - there's no charge- we want your glasses to look their very best! |
