Eye care expert Optical Express has opened a new clinic in Edinburgh city centre.

The latest clinic offers patients a spacious area for laser and lens surgery consultations, a comfortable environment for follow up appointments whilst also providing eye tests and revolutionary procedures such as dry eye treatment which combats the causes of the condition to provide long lasting relief. 


Situated on the ground floor of Ardmore House on George Street, the brand new clinic has recruited four new experienced optometrists to further assist long-standing highly skilled team members who will be making the move.


The clinic, which will be one of four Optical Express locations across Edinburgh also has a new training centre for staff so that team members can learn and develop skills whilst meeting the demand of a busy clinic.  

Lee McKinnon, Regional Director at Optical Express said, “We opened our very first Optical Express location in Edinburgh nearly 30 years ago and since then we’ve offered expert eye care to hundreds of thousands of people across the city. 

“We’re pleased to be able to open up a clinic on George Street, the location is perfect for working professionals to call in on their lunch hour or after work to get information and advice they need on all aspects of eye treatment before considering surgery. We encourage anyone who has yet to have an eye test to make an appointment to come and meet the team and view our new clinic.”
