- Advertisement Feature
"Glasses are the ultimate accessory and a window to your personality. The colour of a frame or the shape of a lens can change your whole appearance."
Grey St. Optician
Whether it’s the effects of increased screen time or just getting older, we often overlook how our lifestyle choices impact our eyesight.
When was the last time you had an eye exam? Struggling to remember? Us too. It’s so bad that we often neglect a sense that’s so important to us.
But why? Our vision plays a key role in how we experience the world.
Whether you need a check-up or if you’ve been holding onto a worn-out pair of glasses for years and need help choosing a new frame, look no further than independent Grey St. Optician, Newcastle upon Tyne.
DISCOVER THOUSANDS OF UNIQUE INDEPENDENT FRAMES FROM ACROSS THE WORLD
Unlike chain Newcastle opticians, Grey St. Optician offers something truly special – an ever-evolving collection of over 1,000 independent, hand-selected frames from around the globe.
Many of their pieces are limited edition, making your eyewear as unique as you are. The boutique collection features styles, sizes and colours to suit every face, personality and lifestyle. Whether you’re looking for bold statement glasses or subtle sophistication, Grey St. Optician have got you covered.
THE GREY ST. OPTICIAN VISION
The team at Grey St. Optician brings a wealth of knowledge, with over 70 years of combined optical experience. They’re not just about selling frames – they’re dedicated to guiding you towards finding the perfect pair with their expertise in styling, fitting and lenses.
We love how they offer personalised and in-depth eyewear consultations, ensuring you choose glasses that complement your face shape, personality and prescription. They make sure your specs not only look great but also fit comfortably and provide the most optimal vision for life’s special moments.
With five experts and a commitment to thorough eye exams, they ensure you’re seeing the world in the brightest, clearest and most accurate way possible. Unlike the impersonal, conveyor-belt service you’ll find at big high-street chains, Grey St. Optician takes the time to make you feel truly valued and cared for throughout your entire experience.
HLN TOP TIP: Busy lifestyle? Grey St. Optician is open until 6pm weekdays and from 9:30am – 5:30pm on Saturdays.
IN-DEPTH EYE EXAMS – MORE THAN JUST A SIMPLE TEST
Your eyes work hard every day and regular check-ups ensure they stay in top shape.
The comprehensive 45-minute eye exams include OCT (Optical Coherence Tomography) scanning, allowing the optician to detect potential issues before they become problems. The expert optician will then take the time to discuss your vision, answer any concerns and provide tailored recommendations for your eye health.
THE EYEWEAR CONSULTATION EXPERIENCE
Ever walked into a shop, tried on a few frames and walked out feeling more confused than when you started? We get you – picking glasses can be a lot. That’s why Grey St. Optician offers personalised eyewear consultations that take all the guesswork out of the process.
Your consultation starts with a friendly chat where an eyewear specialist gets to know you, talking about your lifestyle, personal style and your past eyewear experiences. Then, they’ll handpick a selection of frames that are just right for you. You can try them on while they give you expert advice on fit, comfort and what lenses suit you best.
They’ll also help guide you toward the perfect lenses based on your prescription and lifestyle. Plus, many of their specs are hand-finished in-house and they offer aftercare services to make sure your glasses fit perfectly long term.
A FOCUS BEYOND THE EYE EXAM
Grey St. Optician isn’t just about eye exams and eyewear consultations. From hosting exclusive in-store events featuring new collections and styling sessions to expert frame refurbishments and repairs, they’re here to keep your favourite specs in top shape.
Not a glasses girl and prefer contact lenses? They’ve got you covered. Grey St. Optician’s contact lens fittings help you find the right pair for all-day comfort and crystal-clear vision.
