A RELOCATED opticians store in Wokingham will open its doors to the public on Wednesday.
Specsavers Wokingham, currently located at 11 Market Place, is moving to 18 Market Place where Cargo resided previously. The new space will be home to the latest innovations available in the eye health industry and the team are looking forward to inviting their existing and new customers through the doors to have a look around.
The additional square footage offers the team a great capacity to carry out more eye examinations. The sight-testing rooms have doubled from three to six and there is a brand new dedicated hearing room.
Also available is brand new cutting-edge tablet technology, Digital Precision Eyecare that takes a customer’s facial measurements when dispensing glasses to give personal fit. The store’s same-day service is supported by the latest software in optical technology that makes the process of dispensing frames smoother and quicker.
The new store will also have the latest in eye scanning technology in the form of an Optical Coherence Tomographer – a service that previously would only have been available in a hospital.
This is a non-invasive way of scanning the health of the retina in amazing detail and can help manage conditions such as glaucoma, macular degeneration and diabetic eye disease.
Specsavers Wokingham retail director Susan Caskey said: “The team is working really hard at the moment to ensure that our newly revamped store will provide a leading service in both optical and hearing care for the area. We are delighted with the look of the new space so far, and thrilled to have the very latest technologies arriving. It will provide the community with a greater level of service.
Susan added: “We have invited the local Mayor to meet the team and our patients on the morning of Saturday May 21 to help celebrate our new store and celebrate our 15 year anniversary in Wokingham. We opened for the first time on Tuesday May 29 2001 and now look forward to another successful 15 years in the community.”
