State of the art equipment
At Wigram and Ware, we are proud to be one of the few opticians in town equipped with an Optopol OCT scanner. This advanced technology allows us to monitor your eye health with exceptional detail, enabling us to detect and address changes much earlier—before they become a concern.

We also use the Henson 8000 Field Analyser, a gold-standard tool for detecting and monitoring visual field defects, ensuring precise and reliable assessments of your vision.

For contact lens fitting and dry eye assessments, our Antares Corneal Topographer/Tear Film Interpreter plays a vital role in identifying and managing conditions that affect your eye comfort and vision clarity.

Our spacious and welcoming dispensing area showcases a carefully curated selection of spectacle frames from around the world. Under the expert guidance of Jennifer and Tracey, we handpick unique, high-quality designs to suit every style. We take pride in offering a truly bespoke service, ensuring the perfect frame design and fit, with all dispensing carried out by fully qualified staff.
