It's amazing how many people rule themselves out of wearing contact lenses because they don't think they have a suitable prescription. Technological advances in contact lenses are amongst the fastest moving in optics so it's a rare occurrence when we can't find the perfect lens to suit any eye - even those that require varifocals!

Eyes change throughout our lives, gradually losing the ability to focus on close objects. Varifocals are ideal for all distances, as the lens corrects near, distance and in-between vision.

Your eyesight is precious, which is why having regular eye tests is so important. The NHS provide FREE eye tests and help towards the cost of glasses for qualifying customers. At Vision Express we also conduct an eye health check to test for signs of eye disease and general health problems.

I normally stay away from the big chains as I feel there all about the sale and I like to keep the small man in business, but I feel this was not the case at the Blackburn branch. I will (and have) definitely recommended the shop to other family members and friends etc. All the staff were extremely helpful especially Stacey McCann our sales assistant, who we found really pleasant and she made us feel relaxed.
Fantastic eye test by Mr Yates. Will recommend to all friends and family.
