Established in Congleton, Cheshire in 1984, Lyn Thompson's original practice was in what is now Weatherspoons. We moved to 27 West Street, and then to our current location at 5 West Street in 1996.
With 2 ophthalmic opticians, 2 dispensing opticians, 2 receptionists
and a practice manager
we have grown over the years.
Today optometry is not merely supplying spectacles and contact lenses; there are many different facets involved including Diabetic screening, glaucoma co-management, cataract referral, orthoptics and children’s eye care, to name but a few.
A thorough eye examination can also reveal a great deal about your general health- high blood pressure, diabetes, high cholesterol and other more serious conditions. We recommend you have you eyes tested at least every 2 years, unless otherwise advised.
On our website we have tried to cover most areas of optometry and outlined how we as optometrists can provide a complete eye care package for our patients. However, if there are any aspects of optometry we have not covered please do not hesitate to get in touch!
