Company Description
Eyes on the Moor is a small, independent optician based in Heaton Moor, Stockport.
Our air-conditioned practice is stylish and modern.
We play music and serve tea, coffee and biscuits
We specialise in European eyewear, personally selecting all frames and sunglasses. We focus on forming personal connections with our patients to deliver a tailored and enjoyable experience.
We're not your typical optical practice. We think having an eye examination and choosing glasses should be fun. We're passionate about eyewear. If you're passionate about it too, you'll love it here
We believe in making work as enjoyable as possible, and we like spending time with our patients in a relaxed and friendly atmosphere.
We work with luxury European and Global brands, and we personally select all of our eyewear.
Our eye examinations, including OCT scans, usually last around 45 minutes. We dispense premium lenses in a relaxed and unhurried manner.
