About Us

Boots Opticians was formed in 1983, with our first Optical Services practice opening in Nottingham, this was followed in 1984 by a further 5 stores: Peterborough, Leeds, Mansfield, Luton and Derby.

Since then we have expanded to 286 practices nationwide offering a wide range of services, including eye examinations, digital retinal photography, glasses, contact lenses and accessories.

This year we are celebrating our 25th anniversary, having completed over 21 million eye examinations in our history. Our people have spent the last 25 years dedicated to helping every one of us see better. In fact, all our Optometrists, Opticians and Customer Service Assistants are committed to giving every patient the very best possible eyesight.

In the last year a lot has changed at Boots Opticians, we have re-launched every single one of our 286 practices, and they now look brighter, cleaner and have a wider choice of glasses than ever before!
