May 2023 - Welcome to Coton & Hamblin
A warm welcome to Coton & Hamblin Optometrists.
Thank you for visiting our website, which I hope you find useful, informative and a friendly virtual extension of our 2 practices based in Blackheath Standard and Woolwich, SE London.
Coton & Hamblin is made up of a fantastic team of Optometrists, Dispensing Opticians, Dispensers, Optical Assistants & Receptionists who (in my slightly biased opinion) are the equivalent of the winning numbers on the lottery. The knowledge, skill, care and personality of the team is what makes us.
As well as an amazing group of people to look after all aspects of your eye care, we also have state of the art technology to allow us to offer the best eye care we can provide.
We like to keep ahead of the curve and embrace new findings, technology and ways to look after your eyes.
Our most recent investment is the Dry Eye Clinic, which involves new diagnostic equipment for detection and innovative new treatment of dry eyes, which involves Intensed Pulsed Light (IPL) and Low Level Light Therapy (LLLT). We are very excited to currently be the only practice locally, with Optometrists and equipment to provide this exciting new service.
I am in the process of updating the website, to explain how we do things differently at Coton & Hamblin, but in a nut shell, we take the time.
- Time to listen to our patients
- Time to fully examine the eyes thoroughly
- Time to explain our findings and make recommendations
- Time to choose the right eyewear
- Time to ensure spectacles fit comfortably
- Time to care
- There is also time to chat, as many of our patients are like family.
Our website is just a glimpse of who we are and what we do. We love all things eye related and would be delighted to look after your eyes and vision.
For our latest articles about eye care and spectacle lenses please see link below - I am in the process of adding this to the website, but it is taking me a while to update each page - please bear with me.
Thank you for stopping by and we hope to see you soon.
Best wishes
