For the last 20 years, we have been offering our customers an incredibly streamlined service, with quick access to their contact lenses in letterbox-friendly packages, 24/7 customer care and fantastic discounts on their favourite brands. As part of our constant goal to tailor our business to best serve lens wearers’ needs, we decided to take a step back and join them at the very first stage of the journey: eye tests and contact lens fittings. But we wouldn’t settle for anything other than premium, so we are delighted to partner with experienced opticians David Clulow to offer a unique, premium eye health package available at half the cost to all Vision Direct customers.
Ever since our start nearly 60 years ago, we have never ceased to give our customers access to top of the range eye products, from designer glasses and sunglasses to first-class contact lenses, as well as the latest technology in eye examination to ensure thorough tests and screenings. Thanks to our new partnership with Vision Direct, we are able to expand our offers and combine the powers of the high street and the online world. With their competitive pricing, great customer service and high quality contact lens portfolio, Vision Direct is quite simply the perfect partner to strengthen our own virtual presence.
The donation of laptops from Vision Direct to Rhyl Primary School pupils has been invaluable. Over 60% of our pupils do not have a device of their own to use at home and have to share with siblings or use a parent’s mobile phone. It is more important than ever that every school-aged child is able to access remote learning. For too many children this is not possible and as a result the gap in learning and achievement for our most disadvantaged children is becoming wider and the impact on their future educational outcomes will be significant. Every child has a right to be provided with a device of their own to support their learning and education and this donation will mean more of our children are able to learn at home and have the support from their teachers that they deserve.
It’s vital that everyone has access to laptops during this pandemic. Like countless others, we’ve made the switch to operating remotely and our business would not have been able to continue functioning without the proper technology to keep us connected. We want to ensure that all children have that technology too, as they battle the challenges of remote learning.
