Lucentis® will now be available on the NHS, it had been previously been denied access to those suffering with the aggressive, wet,  form of macular degeneration, on the grounds of cost! The decision by the National Institute for Health and Clinical Excellence advised that all NHS trusts have 3 months to make this drug avaialable. Under the new guidelines the cost of the first 14 injections (each costing upto £700) will be met by the NHS, then all subsequent costs to be met by the drugs’ manufacturer, Novartis. Great newss for all those sufferers out there.

Due to the popularity of the offer,  our suppliers have agreed to supply these great value lenses for another month at the same cost!  So save even more money and have a reglaze with these fantastic lenses. (Ed.)

We are, from today offering our stock Sunglass lenses that are available in grey, green or brown tint with a free anti-glare/scratch coating. We previously sold these for £40, which was then a considerable saving on the High Street average of £85+. We are offering these for only 1 more week only at the standard price of £22.  When you order standard lenses we will contact you to ask if you want the special coated lenses. So many people have taken advantage of this offer so hurry!

Most of the Optical chains have offered a 241 deal over the last few years, in some form or other. Many of you who chose a second ‘free’ frame never use it at all and leave it tucked away in a draw somewhere. If you go back for another test you will be encouraged to purchase again and have another 241! Why not have one of those 241 frames reglazed at a fraction of the cost, with the lenses of your choice? A great way to save money, beat the system and stop wastage! Try it, try us and you will be shocked at just how easy it is!

A valued member of our team had a baby recently it all started while she was at work!!!  Everyone at ciliaryblue would like to send their wishes on her new arrival! Just hoping you can return soon to work?
