Let’s be honest, having your eyes tested is hardly the most exciting of things, if not a bit uncomfortable and tedious. But it is really important and those headaches you’ve been having for the past few months may not be down to tiredness or lack or water. According to a survey carried out by Mintel in 2010, one in five adults rarely or never have an eye test, which is shocking considering it really is a simple appointment to arrange and can quite easily be done and dusted during your lunch break.
HOW OFTEN SHOULD YOU HAVE YOUR EYES TESTED?
How often you should have your eyes tested depends on your age and health. Take a look at the chart below to see how often you should get your eyes tested for the best eye care for you:
| How old are you? |
How often you should have your eyes tested
|
|---|---|
| Under seven years old | Every six months |
| Seven to 16 years old | Every year |
| 16 to 59 years old | Every two years |
| 60 to 69 years old | Usually every two years, but sometimes every year |
| Over 70 years old | Every year |
| Your health | How often you should have your eyes tested |
| If you are diabetic | Every year |
| If you or a member of your family has glaucoma | Every year |
FREE Eye Tests:
Don’t assume that you have to pay for your eye test. There are many ways in which you can have your test paid for, so it’s well worth you reading up on the points below to see if you are entitled to having your eyes checked out at no cost. Just think, more money saved on the test, more to spend on a nice new pair of stylish glasses!
• Are you aged 60 or over?
• Are you under 16, or under 19 and in full-time education?
• Do you live in Scotland?
• Do you or your partner receive Income Support, Child Tax Credit, income-based Jobseeker’s Allowance or
Pension Credit (guarantee credit), and do you have or are you named on a valid NHS Tax Credit
Exemption Certificate or a HC2 certificate (for free prescriptions)?
• Do you have diabetes or glaucoma?
• Are you aged 40 or over and have a close relative with glaucoma?
• Does a hospital ophthalmologist say you are at risk of glaucoma?
• Are you registered blind or partially sighted?
• Are you entitled to vouchers for your lenses? For example the NHS provides vouchers depending on your
circumstances (see http://www.nhs.uk/nhsengland/Healthcosts/pages/Eyecarecosts.aspx)
For the rest of us, there are schemes out there such as Eyecare Vouchers (a voucher scheme run by the Government for anyone who works with computers). It includes free eye tests and vouchers to help you pay towards the cost of glasses.
And, if you regularly use a VDU screen as part of your job, your employer is legally obliged to pay for your eye care. Your employer is responsible for taking care of your eye care. If you use a computer at work, they must pay for your eye test. If you need glasses only for when you are using the computer at work, they must also pay for your glasses.
Shopping at Glasses Direct is so easy and relaxing...
Your Eye test: Follow our rules to get the most out of your optician
- By law, opticians must give you a copy of your prescription after you have an eye test, so always ask for a copy if they don’t give you one. Know your rights and remember that even if they are initially reluctant, its your prescription and you can take it home.
- You can buy your glasses anywhere – you don’t have to get them from the opticians where you had your eyes tested
- Ask your optician for your pupillary distance. This will probably not be on your prescription, but the dispensing optician will need it to make your glasses so that they fit just right.
- By law, if you use a computer screen at work, your employer must pay the cost of your yearly eye test. For more information, click http://www.glassesdirect.co.uk/seeing-clearly/about-eye-tests/
- Many companies offer eye-test vouchers or discounts, so find out before you pay the full cost of an eye test. All optometrists are qualified to the same standard, so you should expect the same treatment wherever you go.
- If you are not sure about where to go for an eye test, ask round your family and friends for where they go and for details of their experiences. Then come to Glasses Direct and order your glasses online and save money. If you’ve not shopped with us before, we understand that first times can be daunting so our team of friendly and knowledgeable experts will gladly guide through the quick and hassle-free process of picking yourself a pair of stylish and wearable frames.

Prescription Eyewear Ltd, the parent company of MyOptique.com, SunglassesShop.com and GlassesDirect.com, announced today that it has added LensOn, the leading Nordic online contact lens seller, to its growing portfolio of market-leading brands.
- LensOn is the leading independent online contact lens seller in Northern Europe, operating local language sites across Sweden, Norway, Finland, Denmark, the Netherlands, Germany, France and the UK
- The acquisition re-affirms the Prescription Eyewear group as the clear European leader in the growing online optical segment with a full offering covering all three major segments in the eyewear market (prescription glasses, sunglasses and contact lenses)
- The deal will also expand PEL’s already significant geographical footprint across Europe, with now more than 60% of sales coming from outside its home market in the UK
- Total annual unique visitors to the group’s websites in 2012 numbered approximately 8.2 million across 100+ countries and local sites in 12 different languages
- The combined group will have generated nearly £30m ($45m, €36m) of Gross Retail Sales in 2012 and is profitable
- Through November 2012 the group has served over 750,000 total customers, and currently ships over 2,000 pairs of glasses, sunglasses or contact lens orders a day, equating to a customer order shipped every 40 seconds
- Total staff in the group now numbers nearly 140 in the UK and Sweden
Founders Kim Persson and Johan Bergenheim will continue to manage the LensOn business and drive growth for the whole group in the Nordic region. The European eyewear market is estimated at over €25bn of which currently only 3-4% is online. As the optical market follows other high-growth ecommerce categories such as fashion and apparel towards online penetration rates closer to 10%, the Company has identified a €3-4 billion opportunity in the European online market over the next 3-5 years.
Prescription Eyewear Limited’s CEO Kevin Cornils comments, “We’re extremely excited to be adding the LensOn team and business into our portfolio of brands including Glasses Direct, Sunglasses Shop and MyOptique. LensOn has established itself as a strong player across the Nordic region and we look forward to working with them to grow their business not only into new European markets, but also to complement their current contact lens offering with prescription glasses and sunglasses. The deal also solidifies PEL’s position as the clear market leader in the fast-growing European online eyewear category and positions us well to take advantage of the significant shift we’re seeing as consumers increasingly choose the internet for the choice, value and convenience that it offers.”
Kim Persson, CEO of LensOn remarked, “PEL and its businesses will be a great partner for us as we look to continue our rapid growth across the Nordic markets and beyond. Their expertise and leading position in selling glasses and sunglasses online will enable us to greatly accelerate our efforts in those markets and provide a full-service offering to our customers. We also look forward to working with them to extend our business into the UK and continental European markets including Germany and France where the opportunity is significant.”
The LensOn acquisition caps a busy year for the PEL group that saw;
- The recent launch of myOptique.com, the first-of-its-kind premier eyewear site, offering a carefully curated mix of premium glasses and sunglasses featuring the world’s most sought-after brands for both men and women
- The launch of Sunglasses Shop into the US and Australian markets, bringing its international sales to over 50% of revenue
- The launch of Glasses Direct’s latest internally designed and developed house brand, Scout, brings the total number of created brands to 3, including the popular London Retro (vintage-inspired) and Element (eco-friendly)
- The addition of Dean Butler, founder of Vision Express (now part of the HAL group) and Lenscrafters (now part of Luxottica Retail) as a Non-Executive Director to its Board of Directors
The acquisition was financed by Prescription Eyewear’s existing venture capital investors, Acton Capital Partners (Etsy, Zooplus, MyTheresa, Linas Matkasse), Highland Capital Partners (VistaPrint, Qihoo, Lulu Lemon, Starent, Quigo) and Index Ventures (Skype, mySQL, Net-A-Porter, ASOS, Etsy, LoveFilm, Last.fm). Additional funding was received from GP Bull Hound Sidecar, Silicon Valley Bank and Kreos Capital. The company was advised by GP Bullhound on financing and Wilmer Hale on legals.

So it’s official, The Daily Mail has announced today that ‘Geek Chic’ specs are now back in vogue. Although we’ve never really fallen out of love with them and call us biased, but we will always be in to that brainier-than-brainy look that a thick acetate spec gives off.
There’s always been a style icon sporting the specs whatever the current trend. From Buddy Holly to Jarvis Cocker the solid design has given the wearer that sartorial edge and a more than sufficient fan following.
This year, the specs appeal has spread across both genders with women cashing in when it comes to topping up on their style status. Newly acclaimed designer Victoria Beckham has most recently branched out into optical design and ever the self promoting powerhouse, Team Beckham have stepped out in matchy-matchy self branded glasses.
Victoria Beckham in her own design.
They better be the wife's design you're wearing, David!
Get the Beckham look from us:
Scout ‘Nation’
London Retro ‘Kings‘
Contributing editor to Vogue UK and all round fashion darling Alexa Chung has long been known to accessorise her boyish charm with a pair of glasses. Teaming her Dolce and Gabbana star print shirt with heavy tortoiseshell specs, the presenter/model/designer (anything this lady can’t do?!) contrasts her delicate elfin features with some bold and retro frames.
And its not just the Brit pack that are embracing their stigmatisms and general lack of 20/20 vision. LA beauties Kim Kardashian and Christina Hendricks have both been papped wearing black acetate frames and Kardashian (ever the lady with her manicured fingers in as many pies) has recently launched her own eyewear collection.
London Retro ‘Patsy’

In order to celebrate National Eye Health Week, Glasses Direct bring to you some helpful tips to keep your peepers in check.
1. Have your eyes checked every 12-18 months
Uncorrected vision problems can progress, and wearing corrective glasses that are no longer right for you can cause vision problems and severe headaches. Once you’ve got them checked, come and visit us online with your prescription at hand and buy online and save. BIG TIME.
2. In summer, always wear sunglasses.
It is proven that UV rays can seriously damage your eyes, but good quality sunglasses can prevent this damage. When buying sunglasses, make sure that they block at least 98% of UV radiation.
And don’t be shy in wearing your sunglasses on cloudy days as well! Clouds might provide shade, but they are no barrier for UV light. In a nutshell, Clouds are basically water, and water is UV-transparent.
- Make like Karl and add UV protection to your prescription.
Shop Karl Lagerfield’s collection at Glasses Direct, here.
3. Eat what is good for you and your eyes
The good news is that there are no foods that would be harmful for your eyes. Most foods don’t affect your eyesight at all but vitamins of the antioxidant group can prevent age-related conditions like macular degeneration and the development of cataracts. Vitamins C, A and E, folic acid, selenium and zinc are definitely beneficial for the health of your eyes. So put a carrot and a bunch of grapes into your lunch box!
4. Feel good in your glasses.
When you’re choosing your glasses, don’t treat it like a chore or necessity. Make it a treat and take time to enjoy the process of working out what suits your personal style and facial features. Invest in picking the perfect pair and you’re more likely to feel good in your frames and wear them not just when you’re supposed to. A recent surge in popularity, glasses are fast becoming the new ‘it’ accessory, so embrace the trend.
5. When you read or work on the computer make sure that the light is right.
It is a common knowledge that working with poor light can cause eyestrain, but light that is too bright can do as much damage too, so make sure your eyes don’t feel like they are straining or squinting.
6. Give your eyes a health break
Did you know that people blink about 25% less often whilst using a computer than usual, causing dry eyes? Make sure you have a break from your computer, of if that just isn’t possible some days, then close your eyes and count to 5 before opening them whenever your computer decides to take its sweet time doing something. If you train yourself into the habit, your eyes should feel much better at the end of your working day.
Lastly, make sure that you enjoy wearing your glasses and feel great in them!

With clients such as The Arctic Monkeys, This Is England’s Vicky McClure, Ellie Golding and Eliza Doolittle, Sara Darling’s CV reads like our dream dinner party guest list. Working with some of the most eclectic and creative set of individuals that British talent has to offer, Darling was an obvious choice for our Faces Of Scout ad campaign when it came to working with our faces and their wardrobes.
Darling gives us her view on things post shoot with a recap on the optic industry’s exciting new eye candy, set to make things that little bit sweeter.
‘When I heard new eyewear brand Scout were launching in the UK, and were looking for a stylist for their campaign, I began to get excited!
Having worked on shoots on the brand’s creators at Glasses Direct before, I knew that they would have come up with something special, resulting in a top selection of frames, along with some sassy models to compliment them. However, this shoot contained the sassiest yet!
As Scout Eyewear has been designed and inspired with the attitude of ‘anything goes’, the models were chosen for having the same kind of attitude when it came to their wardrobes. Hunted out and selected via the competition set to ‘Find The Faces of Scout’ where entrants sent in pics of their style over twitter and facebook; the entries were endless! So, on a grey rainy day a few weeks ago, five lucky winners were informed and the process of styling them working with their own individual looks began…
None of the competition winners were models, (but that was the beauty of this competition- all about style, not about perfect cheekbones and honed and toned torsos) and all varied in their style with many a cheeky tattoo and piercing! They also all came with bags of energy! However this might have been something to do with my bulging suitcases full of stylish treasures to style with!
I had only had their photographs and question and answer sheets to work with. And this must have been a tough decision when the Art Director and the Scout team had to whittle down the potential faces from the vast entries…these models had not been seen in the flesh! But they all photographed amazingly well and had a desire to be in front of the camera and had a certain je ne sais quoi….
Their style icons ranged from Audrey Hepburn to ‘my nan’ and their jobs ranged from trainee chef to bar worker and tattoo artist, so the banter was eclectic and electric!
Self confessed “messy” Sadie wears a lot of vintage and is not a shy girl, so the cocktail shirt and multi coloured jacket are from her own collection of clobber, but with the 80s always in fashion at Beyond Retro, you can pick up similar, one of a kind pieces there.
Sadie, Livvy & Keely wear East in red, Festival in pink and Harper in grey and red
Her necklace is from the Star Cross’d Lovers collection by Bobby White and is clashed up nicely by the neon orange HipHop watch. And just to make it even more mis-match, her girly side is highlighted with a cheeky Das La Vie tutu, with battered cream Chelsea boots and socks from Beyond Retro.
Liv on the other hand is a much more delicate creature, her jumpsuit is a not so subtle star number from New Look, which I added a 70s poncho from Beyond Retro, black turban from Topshop and jumbo pink Ice watch to complete the look. With style icons including Alexa Chung, her taste is very eclectic!
Livvy wears Festival in Tortoiseshell
Alessandro fell in love with pretty much all the pairs of glasses from Scout Eyewear on offer; and his style worked well with the preppy frames. His floral denim jacket is by Horace, cross necklace from Topshop and T shirt by Topman, and creepers by Underground, which now has a spangly new store in Berwick St. Finished off with a Simeon Farrar cap and silver necklace from the Bobby White collection.
Team Scout!
David is a big clothes fan, and spends a lot of money on shopping! His top is from Asos, shorts by everyone’s favourite Ragged Priest, red cap is New Era, pink Caterpillar boots by Martine Rose and socks by American Apparel.
For her second look, Sadie wears jacket by Turkish designer Zeynep Tosun, chain patterned leotard is Urban Outfitters, black trousers with gold piping are Beyond Retro, black and gold heels are by luxury footwear label Cleo B- also hot in the AW collection are cassette tape style heels which are so much fun!
Liv sticks to her girly style and wears the colour of the summer canary yellow dress from Topshop, coupled with a vintage gekko embellished patent belt and studded leather jacket. Her Clarks union jack boots add to the urban feel and she is topped off with a cheeky red bow and jewellery from Bobby White.
Alessandro is wearing a streetwise Varsity jacket by Crooks and Castles, a green t shirt by American Apparel, tie dye shorts from Beyond Retro and a gold dove necklace by Bobby White.
David’s last look is vintage rockabilly with tweed trousers and braces from Beyond Retro, pink t shirt- Simeon Farrar; shoes by Ted Baker and turquoise watch by HipHop. He states it was difficult to chose his favourite frames, but when pushed he decided on the festival with the blue edge.
David Nation
Our fifth model Keely is a professional tattoo artist, who was a big fan of the sixties; Not wanting to pigeon hole her I dressed her up in Beyond Retro tartan trousers and big bovva boots from PPQ at Office, coupled with a chiffon shirt and jacket and fur hat from uber cool Italian label Cycle.
She also slipped fabulously into a pencil skirt and buttoned up Fred Perry polo shirt, which just hinted at her tatts, but really it is more about the glasses! Her favourite frames are the Marylin tortoishell.
Regardless of the grey backdrop, the day was a resounding success and we survived the Great British weather.

We love Jennifer Aniston. Not only is she a great actor, gorgeous and the owner of an A-MAZING wardrobe, she’s also a fan of glasses. So she gets the TEAM GD thumbs up as far as we’re concerned.
The London Retro Ronnie
Shop The Ronnie Frame, HERE
The Wanderlust star was papped last week with beau Justin Theroux wearing over sized frames to shade her baby blues from the glare of the camera. But the spec-wearing beauty had her prescription glasses at hand (well, round her neck to be precise) and had opted for an on trend aviator shape that is having an bit of an eyewear moment. A fail-safe sunglasses frame option for Tinseltown’s regular residents, the aviator silhouette’s timeless style credentials have seeped into the prescription eyewear realm once again, adding a retro-vibe to the safest of attires. Take a look at aviator silhouettes at Glasses Direct, here
