Coronavirus Update
Updated: 5 January 2021
​
The government has designated Opticians as essential workers, and we can therefore remain open during the current lockdown so that important eye care appointments do not get neglected.
​
We are continuing to take all appointment bookings and of course, follow the same Covid protection protocols that we have had in place for many months.
We are available by phone or email if you’d like products posted to you in order to avoid an unnecessary visit to us.
These are worrying times for us all, but the whole Kelly Eyecare team will be working hard to ensure we provide the best care and service that’s possible within the rules that we must follow.
Please take care and stay safe.
Booked appointments
Patient Stories
Entry to our practices will require a booked appointment. This is applicable for every type of visit – even a frame adjustment. This is to ensure that we can safely manage the number of people in each branch with regard to social distancing measures.
PPE
Patient Stories
Our reception team will be wearing face visors, and personal consultants and dispensers will wear facemasks and gloves. This is in line with Public Health England guidance. Face masks will also be available for customers if required.
Infection control
Patient Stories
In preparation for our reopening, we have undertaken infection control training. You can view our certification here.
​
Your health and wellbeing are extremely important to us and we have done everything that we can to make our practices as safe as possible.
Reopening information - downloadable guides
To protect our valued customers and staff, we have introduced new hygiene and safety measures. Below, you can find two downloadable guides explaining what to expect on the day of your appointment, and the do's and do not's of cross infection.
