Openshaw Opticians
30 minute appointments are standard for over 16's meaning you get longer with the optician. We are happy to see NHS and private patients, and children from 6 months upwards. You will be able to have an extended eye examination which includes an OCT examination, which allows us to detect eye disease such as AMD and Glaucoma earlier. Because of our independence we are able to provide you with a large selection of frames and lenses to suit your needs.

Openshaw Opticians was first established in 1946 by Robert Openshaw when he bought out Stansfield Jewellers est. 1885in Cleckheaton. Robert who was a pharmacist by profession, took a further diploma in optometry to become a chemist-based optician. Because Robert's father was a jeweller, the new building became a jeweller as well as an optician.

Children want glasses to be fun.
At Openshaw opticians our specs are cheeky, witty or even serious we have the right glasses for every child.
A new campaign is targeting parents, teachers and health professionals to raise awareness of children's eye health.
Led by the optical sector, the campaign is encouraging parents not to overlook their children's eye health this summer and to include a sight test in their 'back to school' routine.
Statistics show that up to 1 million children in the UK1 will return to school this year with an undiagnosed vision problem.
Sport's eyewear presents a different challenge for spectacle wearer's altogether, as most patients are concerned as to whether or not their current glasses will be able to keep up with their needs.
Eyewear specifically tailored for sports use is now becoming increasingly popular.
Eyewear should enable you to perform perfectly without your vision being a hindrance of any kind.
You certainly wouldn't for example, want to play tennis with the sun glaring in your face.
For people with or without the need for glasses, most people use sunglasses during brighter days to reduce glare and enhance their vision.
The needs and wearing habits of contact lens wearers are as different as the wearers themselves.
Not only do we stock a wide range of different contact lenses, but we are also happy to give you responsible personal advice if you have yet to find the lens which is right for you at Openshaw opticians cleckheaton.
During the examination at Openshaw Opticians your eyes will be tested to determine the strength of lenses you will need for clear vision, and the health of you and your eyes and eyelids will be examined.
Avoid the discomfort of bright light outdoors, without the need for separate glasses and sunglasses.
Transitions Signature lenses react rapidly to changing light conditions outdoors, and return to clear when you come back inside.
They also prevent long-term eye damage by blocking out harmful UV rays.
Transitions photochromic lenses have created flawless clear vision by combining the strengths of our Varilux Transitions and Crizal products.
That means rapid reaction to changes in outdoor light, leading anti-UV and anti-glare technology, and resistance to smudges, dust and water.
Ordinary varifocals may restore satisfactory vision at all distances but some do a much better job than others.
No varifocal lens is better than Varilux, the world's leading varifocal brand with hundreds of millions of wearers all over the world.
We recommend Varilux because it's the lens our patients like best.
Varilux lenses deliver clearer vision, even in poor light, and you'll find they give wider fields of sharp vision too.
It adds up to the most natural-feeling vision possible in a varifocal lens.
