In the program with the help of Colorimetry Kara has a pair of spectacles made up for her, a lovely pair of Face à Face which we stock at our Bayfield & Bartlam Opticians. Her lenses in the spectacles are green, this is colour which helps her to read easier, amazingly in the program she picks up a book for the first time and is able to read it all with the help of these coloured lenses. We offer Colorimetry at our University Vision Opticians practice. 

Do you or anyone you know think they could benefit for this? Then call University Vision Opticians on 0113 245 5618, one of the team will be more than happy to discuss booking for an assessment to see if this could help you or someone you know.
