The anti glare coating makes them perfect for driving even when the sun is low in the sky (which it often is in Finland!). Thanks to all at the Respectacle Company! read less

The retinal imaging machine means that Mr Hanby could check every detail of the inner workings of my eyes and provide me with helpful advice for the future. Alison also sorted out the addition of sun shades to fit over my existing glasses to reduce UV light issues. read less

So, I have approximately 20 pairs of spectacles collected over the last few years from a well known high street opticians , you might have been there ! 😀
The prescription kept changing ever so slightly ... I couldn’t get on with the varifocals / bi focals and was carrying 3 pairs but to be honest, wasn’t wearing them !!
At work it caused issues as I work at a bank of 4 screens but also need to see into the distance / computer screen and close up.
I was losing faith, until , I visited ReSpectacle ....
The eye test was very thorough, the service from Alison , second to none .... in fact , to be fair it was an all round enjoyable experience .
I now have 2 pairs of ‘specs’ , that I wear all the time .... (my partner is gobsmacked !😀)
I am receiving compliments galore....
I am one incredibly happy customer, and would recommend ReSpectacle to anyone....
I cannot fault them .... and to be honest, I’m a bit like strictly judge Craig .... I don’t usually give 10/10 .... read lessAlison and the guys are just great straight forward and honest Always willing to help and very knowledgeable.

The shop is so very cool, with a lovely range of contemporary furniture, bright colours & glasses displays - not the usual row upon row of back lit glasses racks!

I met Alison at a networking event and immediately booked in. A far superior service to any of those ‘generic’ high street opticians (in my opinion!), very thorough, helpful, patient (with my dithering over which frames to choose - so many lovely and unique ones!), a great service that I can (and already have) highly recommend. Thank you. read less

Eye Examinations
Regular eye tests are an important part of your general health care routine. Not only does the full eye examination check your vision, but it also detects signs of other possible underlying health problems. Here at Respectacle Company, we have invested in the latest technology to offer all of our customers a full and comprehensive eye examination. Everyone should have their eyes tested by a qualified optometrist at least every two years, although some medical conditions require more frequent checkups, which your optician should advise you about.
When you book an eye test, our fully qualified and experienced optometrist will carry out a full and comprehensive examination of your eyes. This examination normally takes between 30-40 minutes, during which time they will carry out a full range of clinical tests and examinations to check your vision and the health of your eyes. We aim to deliver an exceptional standard of eye care and we deliver this high standard regardless of our customers’ budgets. All of our customers receive the same amount of time and care, regardless of whether they are a private patient or entitled to a free NHS examination.
Contact Lenses
As the world of contact lenses develops and more products are launched onto the market, it increases the number of people we are able to offer contact lenses to. So, if you’ve not been able to wear contact lenses in the past but would like to give them a try, it’s worth asking us to see if anything has changed. Whether you’re an existing contact lens wearer or are considering contacts for the first time, Respectacle Company is the go-to place for contact lenses in Market Harborough.
We have a large portfolio of contact lenses available including daily, monthly, and gas permeable lenses. Most of which come in single vision, toric and multifocal prescriptions. And as an independent opticians, we are not restricted by what products we can offer. With a selection of different materials available we can successfully fit most patients with a suitable product for their prescription and lifestyle needs, ensuring comfort and clarity. We also hold a stock of contact lenses in our store, so many of our customers can be supplied with contact lenses without having to wait.
OCT Scans
Having a comprehensive eye examination checks your vision and the health of your eyes. The examination can also tell us a lot about your overall health. At Respectacle Company our customers’ health and wellbeing are of the utmost importance to us. That’s why we have invested in Optical Coherence Tomography imaging technology, also known as an OCT scan. Our hospital-grade equipment takes an advanced and detailed scan of the layers of your eyes. This in-depth examination produces a comprehensive 3D scan of your eye which is similar to an ultrasound scan.
We believe regular OCT scans are an essential ongoing health record of the condition of your eyes. These records are a great benchmark to work from when assessing changes or abnormalities within your eyes. Many common eye conditions are hereditary, can be triggered through the long-term use of some medications or through lifestyle. But if diagnosed at an early stage through an OCT scan, the condition can be successfully managed or prevented. Our fully qualified and experienced optometrist has undergone extensive training in OCT analysis to ensure that we offer a full and comprehensive diagnosis of each consultation.
Seiko Lenses
We’re proud to be a Seiko lens specialist. In our opinion, they are one of the best lens companies in the world, producing the highest quality optical lenses. Seiko is committed to tailoring each type of lens perfectly so that the Seiko lens wearer experiences the best possible vision in all settings, tasks, and occasions. These world-leading lenses are designed to offer a clear, natural vision.
Seiko lenses are up to 50% thinner and 45% lighter than ordinary plastic lenses, improving cosmetic appearance and comfort. Within the Seiko family, there is a lens suitable for everyone’s needs and lifestyle, from single vision lenses generally used for either distance vision or reading, through to progressive lenses that combine distance, intermediate, and near vision prescriptions within one lens.
