# Alexander Opticians
Alexander Opticians is an independent optometry practice based in Glasgow, run by a husband and wife team with a combined 50 years of professional experience. They provide comprehensive eyecare services to patients across Glasgow and Lanarkshire from their established, comfortable home practice environment.
The practice distinguishes itself through genuine independence from large national chains, allowing them to prioritise personal service and community connection alongside clinical excellence. Their commitment to accessibility is evident in offering free eye examinations and complimentary home visits for housebound patients, removing barriers to quality eyecare.
The team specialises in contact lens fitting, varifocal and thin lens provision, and has particular expertise in diabetic and glaucoma screening with retinal photography capabilities. They provide children's eyecare services, ensuring young patients receive age-appropriate attention. As an authorised emergency eye casualty examination centre for Hairmyres Hospital, they offer urgent treatment when needed.
Their practice is equipped with modern diagnostic technology, reflecting their commitment to contemporary clinical standards. The emphasis on genuine value for money—avoiding unnecessary upselling whilst maintaining premium service—appeals to cost-conscious patients who refuse to compromise on quality. This combination of specialist expertise, accessibility measures like free home visits, local community involvement, and transparent pricing philosophy positions Alexander Opticians as a trusted neighbourhood practice serving diverse patient needs from routine checks to specialised conditions.
