Whether you’re planning a relaxing beach holiday, setting sail on a cruise, exploring a new city or enjoying a staycation closer to home, one thing is certain – you want to see every moment clearly.
We spend plenty of time planning where we’re going, what to pack and how we’ll get there, but it’s easy to overlook one essential travel companion: your eyewear.
At Optomeyes Eyecare, we’re helping patients prepare for summer with our complimentary Holiday Ready Eyewear Check, available throughout July at both our Wickham and Lee-on-the-Solent practices. Booking is essential as appointments are limited and we’d hate you to miss out.
Why your glasses deserve a holiday check too
Your glasses work hard every single day. Over time, frames can become loose, lenses can collect tiny scratches and your spectacles may no longer sit correctly on your face. While these changes often happen gradually, they can affect both your comfort and the quality of your vision.
The last thing you want is to arrive at your destination only to discover your glasses are slipping, uncomfortable or in need of repair.
Whether you’re driving long distances, navigating airports, sightseeing or relaxing by the pool, clear and comfortable vision makes every experience more enjoyable.
That’s why our team is offering a professional Holiday Ready Eyewear Check before you travel.
About your complimentary Holiday Ready Eyewear Check
When you book your complimentary Holiday ready Eyewear Check, our experienced dispensing team will ensure your eyewear is ready for whatever your summer has in store.
Your appointment includes:
- A full spectacle MOT and professional adjustment
- A thorough frame and lens clean
- A comfort and fit assessment
- Personalised UV protection advice
- Travel eyewear recommendations
- A prescription sunglasses consultation if appropriate
It’s a quick appointment that can make a real difference before you head away.
Don’t forget about UV protection
Many people remember to protect their skin from the sun but don’t realise that their eyes also need protection.
Long periods outdoors expose your eyes to ultraviolet (UV) radiation, even on cloudy days. Over time, excessive UV exposure has been linked with an increased risk of developing certain eye conditions, making good quality UV protection an important part of looking after your long-term eye health.
If you’re spending time at the beach, on the water, in the mountains or even exploring the UK during bright summer days, prescription sunglasses can provide both clear vision and reliable protection from harmful UV rays.
During your Holiday ready Eyewear Check our team will explain the different lens options available, including polarised lenses that help reduce glare from roads, water and other reflective surfaces, making them particularly useful for driving and outdoor activities.
Thinking about prescription sunglasses?
If you’ve never considered prescription sunglasses before, summer is the perfect opportunity.
Rather than swapping between your glasses and standard sunglasses, prescription sunglasses allow you to enjoy clear vision while protecting your eyes from bright sunlight. You can choose from a range of stunning frames including Maui Jim, Chopard, Black FIn, Bord Eyewear, Coco Mint and many more.
Whether you’re reading by the pool, driving abroad, walking the coast or simply enjoying lunch outside, they provide both convenience and visual comfort.
Throughout July we’re making it even easier to invest in holiday eyewear, just ask for details during your complimentary Holiday ready Eyewear Check.
Exclusive July offers
When you spend £150 or more, you’ll receive your choice of:
- £25 towards prescription sunglasses, or
- £25 towards a second pair of glasses for travel.
A second pair can be invaluable while you’re away, giving you peace of mind should anything happen to your primary glasses.
