The optician talked me through all the tests and scans she did on my eyes - all very interesting and reassuring.
I am so pleased that I have found Airedale Opticians in Crosshills and would highly recommend them.
All the staff are friendly and knowledgeable and nothing is too much trouble.
Thank you for always being patient with my excitable inquisitive child who finds the shop, the machines and the magnifying glasses fascinating (and finds it hard to stay on task! Ha!)
We’ve picked some really lovely frames over the years and here are todays new glasses.
Happy new specs day!
Thanks again. X
