Posts in Contact Lenses

Contact lens fitter Harold Anderson of Southport has retired after almost 30 years of working for Conlons Opticians.

Conlons described him as one of the finest opticians in the industry, who over the years has won a number of awards for his achievements and has provided Conlons customers with an excellent and consistent service. Anderson is one of the few members of the Conlons team to have worked in all 18 of its branches and has offered training to many dispensing opticians who are now practising.

Managing director John Welsby said: "My staff are I would like to thank Harold for all his hard work and dedication over the last 27 years."

We have recently been including a bag of Haribo within each dispatch of contact lenses for those on direct debit. This is only for a limited period but has been received with very mixed results. We have received much positive feedback with people seeing it as a nice little harmless gesture. On the other hand, it has left others confused with some thinking that perhaps someone accidently dropped some of their lunch into their contacts! Also, they are not great for teeth although are only a little bag. What do you think?
