Colin Lee Opticians has always strived to be the best Opticians in the West Midlands and Staffordshire by staying true to our beliefs in offering a friendly, professional, and caring service whilst still giving patients excellent value for money.
Our emphasis on quality extends into every area of our service, from eye testing, helping you choose the right frame and spectacle lenses to suit your specific needs, then fitting and making your spectacles in our own labs. We partner with the best lens manufacturers in the world and are not tied to a limited lens list or suppliers so can truely offer the best lenses to suit your needs.
We won’t sacrifice quality and having our own lab's where we can make the spectacles ensures we can provide the highest quality of products and after-care for our patients.
We offer a variety of services, so we can cover all your eye health and care needs under one roof.
If glasses aren’t for you or you just want a change from wearing them all the time, our specialist Contact Lens Opticians are at hand to help you choose the right type of contact lens to suit your needs.
In recent years we have branched into new services to offer our patients the latest in Ophthalmic technology and eye care pathways;
We are very proud to own award winning OCT's (3D retinal scanner) in our practices, where we can now do detailed 3D scans of the back of your eye which can highlight otherwise undetectable visual conditions such as Macular Degeneration and Glaucoma earlier than in a standard eye examination to provide swifter diagnosis and potentially better treatment outcomes.
All our practices are equipped to take retinal photos for any patients including those who need their annual diabetic check and all practices have field screening machines which are used to detect the early signs of glaucoma aswell as other eyeconditions and monitor thereafter.
As hospitals and GP practices are becoming more and more strained Colin Lee Opticians have partnered with Hospital services to provide shared care in all ways available. We offer minor eye condition (known as CUES) appointments on behalf of local GP's, Pre and post operation checks for cataracts to prevent unnecessary and long appointments in hospital and glaucoma referral and monitoring clinics again to prevent hospital assessment.
We also offer specialist Dry eye and private Orthoptic assessments which are usually only available through referral to hospital services or GP.
Myopia in children is increasing due to use of near devises. Unfortunately the more an eye is myopic (or short sighted) the higher the risk of potentially sight threatening conditions later in life. We can now offer treatment to slow the progression of myopia in children and therefore reduce these risks in what is called Myopia management. This treatment is available in all our practices.
We are also proud to offer private hearing/audiology services, including free hearing assessments and screenings in all of our practices.
At Colin Lee Opticians we are very proud that many of our staff have been with us for a number of years, thereby offering our patients a unique continuity of service, as well as a familiar and friendly face on each visit.
