Orkney is outstanding in all ways. They have a full complement of the latest and best diagnostic equipment. My wife, my daughter and myself have all had great results, sometimes with complicated conditions. Their selection of frames and lenses is first rate. I’ve been wearing glasses forever, and the Orkney team has exactly the styles I’m looking for. And last but not least, everyone in the office is wonderful to work with. I always look forward to visiting my friends at Orkney.
Robert and the team at Orkneys tested my eyesight and have subsequently prescribed and fitted my glasses . The service was excellent and I felt I was in very safe hands I would highly recommend this local business .

I have been using Orkney Opticians for many years & I have always been very impressed by the services they offer to me & my family from all of the team.
A wonderful selection of frames, sunglasses & lenses are always on offer, all of which can be selected with the expert guidance of the team.
I use the monthly eye care payment plan which I find exceptional value for money.
Highly recommend for all aspects of your eye care needs.
