When we opened in 2006 we knew that small independent optometry businesses were an endangered species. Large corporates have overwhelmed our small health care profession and tried to turn us into specialty retailers.

But at North Lakes Optometry, your eye health comes first and we don’t play retail games. We’ve never had a sale,. We don’t have special offers. We don’t give you two for the price of one. So how is it that we’re still here?

Well, we look after the health of your eyes and visual system first and foremost. We appreciate that many people have their eyes checked out of concern for their eyes, not necessarily because they want new glasses.

We offer high quality spectacle frames without the premium for a designer brand name. We know that our patients are smart enough to realise that a designer spectacle frame may only have been approved by the designer for a fee, not actually designed and made by that designer in-house.

Also, we don’t buy overstocks, factory seconds or discounted lines. That way, we know our frames are new, and the materials have not been aged for years in a warehouse somewhere.

We offer premium quality lenses with the best available heat-resistant and scratch-resistant coatings.

So, in short, we’re still here because offer you the quality of health and products that we would expect to be offered.

And we always will!
