12 Jun A Day in the Life of an Optician at Harley Bain
At Harley Bain Opticians, being an optician is about more than just prescribing glasses—it’s about making a real difference in people’s lives. Every day, we help patients see the world more clearly, catch early signs of eye conditions, and offer expert advice to keep their vision healthy for years to come.
Caring for Our Community
Our practice is rooted in the local community, and many of our patients have been coming to us for years. From young children having their first eye test to older adults managing long-term eye health, we treat every patient with care, patience, and professionalism.
What Does an Optician Do?
You might think we just check eyesight and hand out prescriptions, but the job goes much deeper. As opticians, we:
-
Perform detailed eye examinations using advanced diagnostic tools
-
Detect early signs of eye conditions like glaucoma and macular degeneration
-
Advise on lens choices, including varifocals, anti-glare coatings, and blue light filters
-
Fit and adjust glasses and contact lenses for comfort and performance
-
Offer personalised recommendations based on lifestyle, work, and vision needs
A Blend of Science and Style
Being an optician at Harley Bain means combining clinical knowledge with a keen eye for design. We help patients find frames that not only improve vision but also match their personality and style—whether it’s classic, bold, or designer.
Why We Love What We Do
There’s something special about helping someone see clearly for the first time, or easing a patient’s concerns with expert advice. We’re proud to build trust through excellent care, and we genuinely enjoy the relationships we form with our patients.
