WHO ARE HEATH OPTICIANS?

We are a private, independent, professional and friendly ophthalmic opticians’ practice, established in 1984 by James and Jill Heath.

Over the years, we have built our reputation for professional and personal service and caring for generations of satisfied patients in our local community and beyond.

PROUD TO BE INDEPENDENT OPTICIANS

Our purpose-built practice, opened in 1995, is modern, bright and spacious, equipped with state-of-the-art technology like the Optomap Retinal Camera and Optical Coherence Tomography. Since 2024, Georgina Priestley-Holmes, Alison Woodcock and Kelly Mayers have led the practice alongside your trusted team, caring for your eyes and ears.

COMBINING EXPERT CARE WITH THE LATEST TECHNOLOGY

From computer-controlled eye tests to choosing your new eyewear, our experienced team provides a personal, friendly service that is supported by advanced equipment. As independent opticians, we offer everything from budget to designer frames and recommend the best lenses for your individual needs, without being tied to specific manufacturers.

OUR FRIENDLY STAFF

As an independent optician practice, we are very much a part of the local community and offer a comprehensive range of services to meet the needs of local people, specifically geared to each individual patient. We are and have always been keen to promote excellent eye care for all.​
