My g/f has just been to Peepers on the old high street and recommended it highly.

I'll ask this evening, she didn't mention the equipment, just the great service.

She's also been to a few others... Will report back.

Should have gone to specsavers

Seriously though they were miles cheaper for daily disposables than other opticians I went to.

I too, realised I was a bit blind Not good for driving.

Seriously as well, the world is a brighter place when you can see things. I was frankly amazed at how much difference it made, mainly because bad sight creeps up on you gradually

Doesn't sound as high tech as the Milton Keynes one, highly recommended all the same

do u think it makes ure eyes worse though? always avoided glasses etc as if i have 3 weeks away from a computer theyre fine its just i cant see a thing at the end of teh day and yes i look away etc! dont want to make them worse by having to wear glasses
