Having graduated from UMIST (University of Manchester Institute of Science and Technology) in 2001 with a first class masters degree in optometry, and having completed a clinical post at Newcastle Royal Victoria Infirmary, our resident optometrist and owner Andrew began working for a large multiple chain optician practice in the centre of Bolton.
Eventually he decided to become a locum optometrist and work for different opticians to gain knowledge and experience of how various practices operated.
