Ciliaryblue have been selling our ultra-clean coated lenses now for 5 years, these come with anti-scratch, anti-reflection and the ultra-clean. they cost slightly more, but stay cleaner, are easier to clean, are water-proof and don’t steam up as much as standard lenses. Essilor have been advertising thier equivalent lens on TV recently. If you want the equivalent lens then look no further than the MAR/UC lens with ciliaryblue.

You can order online or over the phone.

The price of spectacles in Britain was again discussed, this time on the TV programme Rip-off Britain. The price of spectacles have been the focus of much attention for some years now with internet availabilty meaning that the prices could easily be substancially lower than the high street while still providing a successful business model. The internet is here to stay as is the supply of spectacles. The high street prices will always be higher, the quality may well be exactly the same, it really comes down to how you want to shop?

We have been providing lenses-only for some time now, so the customer can use their own frame new or old and have it glazed/reglazed. Our prices like most internet stores is around 1/2 to 1/3 of the equivalent on the high street.
