Congratulations to three loyal employees who are each celebrating 25 years with family owned business Scrivens Opticians & Hearing Care.
Branch manager Ann Burgess Owen, optometrist Nadine Williamson and IT support and systems tester Raj Morar have all clocked up the impressive milestone and received gifts of their choice to mark the occasion.
Hay fever season is upon us and for millions of people it brings on symptoms such as itchy, red or watery eyes, sneezing and coughing, a runny or blocked nose and headaches.
With working from home becoming common practice, find out how to prevent computer eye strain.

Hearing loss can have a variety of impacts on our daily lives. Taking action on hearing loss can improve your quality of life and allow you to take back control of your hearing.
It’s World Glaucoma Week (6 – 12 March) which is a global initiative to raise awareness of one of the leading causes of blindness.
Closer to home it is a timely reminder of the benefits of regular sight tests which can detect this common eye condition that can cause loss of vision if not diagnosed and treated early.
No longer confined to the realms of science fiction, Artificial Intelligence (AI) is being harnessed to change how we live and work in so many ways.
With today’s busy lifestyles you’ll often hear people say there’s never enough time to get everything done. Some things we just put off or simply never get around to. Looking after our health should figure on the ‘to do’ list. That certainly goes for having regular hearing checks as, despite what you may think, hearing loss can strike at any age and is not reserved for elderly people.
Are you feeling the pinch this January with post-festive bills and spiralling living costs? We advise that you don’t neglect your eye care and unknowingly enter into a false economy.
Hearing loss affects people’s quality of life in so many ways and now research suggests it may also be linked to a decline in physical activity among older people.
