Ciliaryblue do not sell frames and have no intention of doing so. We get asked all the time where can good quality, branded frames be bought safely and with no risk. We are always very guarded about our response, but we have forged an alliance with an ebay based company selling frames only. We have seen the stock and know it’s authentic and they are to be trusted completely. If you buy their frames you will be offered a 10% dicount code for the reglazing of the glasses with us, making the combined product cheap and of great quality.

Have a look the link to them is http://myworld.ebay.co.uk/eyewearwh/  they are called Eyewear-Warehouse.

There has been an article in the Optician Magazine this week about the growing number of people driving with defective vision.

The facts make startling reading, 45% of the UK’s driving population (34.7 million) wear glasses 10% of those confess to not wearing them, that’s 1.5 million! Of the 19 million not wearing glasses that drive 40% confess to having problems seeing at night or in poor weather or feel their eyesight isn’t perfect, that’s 7.6 million.

The total number of drivers that may have a problem driving in the UK could be as high as 9.1 million or more worryingly 1 in 3 of the drivers on the road!

The implications of driving with defective vision are that the insurance is invalidated

Ciliaryblue feel that they have contributed to improving road safety in the UK by offering lower more affordable prices, those that wouldn’t have changed their glasses on the basis of cost may certainly reconsider when they realise we are often less than 1/4 of the high street price.
