Repairs

We offer a Rapid Repair Service. However some repairs can take an appreciable time, therefore we always recommend that if you are dependant on spectacles in your daily routine you have an adequate second pair, so that you are able to carry on efficiently should a breakage occur.

Sunglasses

All our sunspecs offer 100% UVA and UVB protection. The lenses can be made to your prescription or as plano (plain lenses) so they can be worn over your contact lenses. We offer fixed tint lenses as well as variable lenses, called Photochromic (which darken in the sun), and are now available in Plastic as well as Glass and Polycarbonate.
