Meet the faces behind the frames
Respectacle Company is a small family owned and operated business based in Manor Walk, Market Harborough. Dreaming about running their own optical store for a few years, Alison and Rob opened the doors to Respectacle in 2016. The aim was always to offer unique eyewear with a high quality, professional and knowledgeable service to people in the local area.
Our team is as fabulous as our eyewear, and passionate and knowlegeable about eyecare. You will see the same staff members each time you visit us. That continuity of care is just one of the many benefits we are able to provide as an independent opticians. So, come and meet the faces behind the frames and get to know us a bit better!

What Our Customers say
“Fabulous”
The customer care that the lovely peeps at Respectacle offer is second to none, the variety of frames is fabulous and thoroughness of eye testing and maintaining good eye health is utterly reassuring. Grazie mille for encouraging me to step out of my comfort zone with my new specs. I love them!
“Trustworthy”
Quick, efficient and trustworthy. Other opticians always seem to say I need a new prescription when in fact it’s near enough. Respectacle advised me not to change prescription because the existing prescription is near enough – very commendable not overselling. Also, the range of frames is excellent.
“Knowledgeable”
First time visiting Respectacle and what a great experience. I had a very thorough eye test, lots of explanation along the way, nothing too much trouble and choosing lenses with help of a very professional and knowledgeable person in the shop was fab. Again, nothing was too much trouble, lots of advice and help with styling and lenses. It all felt very bespoke.
“Phenomenal”
I went to Respectacle as I don’t enjoy the impersonal service at the cheaper providers. My experience was excellent from the first time I walked in to when I walked out with my new glasses a while later. All personnel are friendly, professional and knowledgeable. There was no rush and I felt taken care of at every step. I would highly recommend Respectacle.
