I have worked in optics for more than 25 years in some of London’s best practices, with many progressive years honing my craft at Auerbach & Steele, but also as a consultant on design and build of eyewear, and in wholesale. The most satisfying of all the work I have done is helping patients find solutions for their specific needs for their work, social needs or sport, but at the same time making sure the design of the spectacles suits their face and character.
Trust is key to getting this right so by discussing the prescription and the eyewear with the patient we work together to get the right design and fit in both frames but also lenses. More recently, working with Sophie and George Taylor-West has provided us with a ‘light bulb’ moment when we realised we could pool our knowledge and form another practice in Battersea, which is now 4th in the group but my first practice. I am a local in Battersea for nearly 25 years, and I’ve seen Northcote Road in all its changes.

We have some outstanding and wonderful independent eyewear brands and very much look forward to helping you find your perfect eyewear in Battersea.
