Wishing you a happy and healthy 2014!

We hope you all had a fantastic festive period, and are looking forward to the new year as much as we are!

2013 was a great year for Lynne Fernandes Optometrists (LFO), a couple of new faces joined our team, a couple of new frame ranges joined our collection and rather a few new faces visited Lynne Fernandes Optometrists for the first time!

Last year saw an excellent number of new patients getting their eyes thoroughly examined at 'LFO' for the first time, and also saw us involved in more community projects than ever before.
We introduced two fantastic new members to our team, Vicki at our Gloucester Road practice, and Natasha at our Nailsea Practice. We also introduced some new frames to our already extensive collections, most notably our 'Wolf' eyewear collection that has been extremely popular.

It was also a great year for the development of our Staff, as we saw Emma successfully progress onto the second year of her 'Dispensing Opticians' course with ABDO, and also saw Lauren start her first year on the very same course. Both Emma and Lauren are doing incredibly well and we wish them the very best of luck for their studies this year, not that they need it.....!
A special mention must also go to two other members of our team who are also studying extremely hard for their respective courses. Tash and Katy, both at our Wells Road practice, are currently making very good progress through the 'Worshipful company of spectacle makers' course, an organisation dating back to 1629! Well done to you both.

2013 also saw us expand our social media network, meaning more people than ever before can keep in contact with us via a whole range of services like Facebook, Twitter, our website and our blog! Look out this year for some new and exciting platforms that we will be available on, like Pinterest, coming soon....

And finally....

In 2014 there are exactly 525,600 minutes.... an eye examination at 'LFO' takes 30 minutes.... So, if you are overdue an eye test you cannot argue you do not have the time! Please book in, they are very very important!

All the team here at Lynne Fernandes Optometrists wish you the happiest, and healthiest 2014.

Thank you for taking the time to read this week's blog.
