Accessories

Along with delivering eyecare tailored to your needs, Simmons Optometrists also has a great range of optical accessories, whether you’re looking for yourself or for a gift for someone else.

shighres01Cases, Chains & Sports Bands
There’s a fantastic choice of different coloured and finished cases. Strong and practical, they keep your glasses out of harms way when you’re not wearing them.

Both practical and stylish, we have an extensive range of spectacle chains and cords. Keep your new glasses safe and easy to find by having them round your neck when you don’t need them. You can choose from a wide range of materials and colours to coordinate with your new purchase.

Our selection of sports bands will keep your glasses in place no matter how active you are!

Lens Cloths & Cleaners
Maximise your lenses’ performance by cleaning them regularly with a specialist lens cleaner and micro-fibre cloth. You’ll see better and your lenses will last longer.

Ready made reading glasses
We have a varied range of ready-readers, incorporating quality frames and aspheric lenses. Perfect for use with contact lenses and if you need a pair of glasses in every room!

Clip on Sunglasses & Over-spec Sunglasses
They are designed to fit over the top of your existing spectacles, and whilst not always the most stylish accessory but definitely one of the most popular!

Eyecare Supplements
We can advise you on the benefits of the various lutein-containing food supplements, designed to protect your macula. The large AREDS clinical trial (2001) has found that taking high levels of antioxidants and zinc can reduce the risk of developing advanced age-related macular degeneration (AMD) by about 25 percent, but only in those already at high risk of doing so.

We stock MacuShield®  – it’s the only supplement available with all three of the antioxidants needed to keep your macula healthy. It does not contain any vitamins or minerals so there are no unwanted interactions with other medications you may be taking or with other medical conditions you may have.

shighres06Eye Drops & Eyelid Care
We have a complete range of products to help you with dry eye, blepharitis and hayfever including the EyeBag, lid wipes and artificial tears. If you haven’t done so before please book in for an examination first for advice on which product is most suitable for you.

Don’t forget to look at our other pages for details of our sports vision glasses, contact lens solutions, eye drops and low vision aids.

Do visit the practice or give us call if you would like to find out more about any of our accessories.
