Andrew Lomas Opticians is an independent practice in Elland market town — not a chain — with appointment times that don't feel rushed.
Views across the whole valley
Southowram sits high on the hillside above Halifax, famous for its sweeping views back across the whole Calderdale valley. It's a stop on the Calderdale Way, and the elevation that makes it such a scenic spot also makes good vision matter — whether you're reading a footpath sign from a distance or simply enjoying the view from your own front room.
Time to actually talk
Appointments aren't squeezed to a script. We take the time to explain what we find and what your options are, with no pressure to buy anything.
The same optometrist, year on year
Many of our patients see the same face at every visit, so changes to your eyes or prescription get spotted early.
What a visit includes
A full eye examination — not just a quick prescription check.
Eye health check
Screening for glaucoma, cataracts, macular degeneration and other conditions, not just vision correction.
Prescription & advice
A clear explanation of your results and honest guidance on glasses, contact lenses, or neither.
Frame fitting
Try frames in person, or at home first using our virtual fitting room tool if you'd rather browse before you visit.
