Blink Opticians offer an extensive range of glasses just for kids.

Blink Opticians ensures peace of mind for parents and fun choices for children.

Your child’s eye exams are free on the NHS up to the age of 16 (or 19 if they are in full time education). Plus, if they do need glasses you’re entitled to NHS vouchers that go towards the cost. What’s even better is that many of the lenses from the Kodak Lens Kidz range are completely free. Whether your voucher covers the entire cost of your child’s glasses will depend on the type you choose.

Taking your child for regular check-ups well help to ensure sight problems can be identified and treated and this can prevent future problems. It's important to identify any sight problems as early as possible especially in children so your child can enjoy a fun filled, full and active life with good sight.
