Spectacle Lenses at Ellis & Thompson Optometrists
Our qualified Dispensing Opticians will guide you through our wide range of premium quality and bespoke lenses once you have had your eye examination and chosen your frames.
By recommending the right lenses and coatings, we are continuously able to enhance our patients' visual comfort.
We are pleased to have fully embraced digital, facial imaging. In order to obtain precise measurements for your spectacles, we take a multitude of images from different angles.
In the past, your optician may have marked your lenses with a ruler or pen. This is a legacy technology that belongs firmly in the past. To ensure that you have the highest quality vision, we also consider how the frame sits on your face, including the curve, distance, and angle it sits at; this helps us produce the most accurate lenses. Precision like this can help improve your vision by up to 50%! Dispensing optics is a technical art form that only our experienced team can handle.

We’ve all been there. Squinting into the glare as the sun reflects off the road or the bonnet of the car, trying our best to carry on driving. Well, there’s something you can do about that, and they’re called polarised lenses.
