Gibson and Thomson

We are a local business who have been providing eye care services for the people of Garstang and the surrounding community for many years.

Contrary to popular belief, contact lenses can NOT become lost behind the eye. This is because the conjunctiva, a thin membrane which covers the inside of your eyelids and the white of your eyes, stops anything from going too far back.

Heterochromia iridum is a condition where each iris is a different colour.

Did you know that your iris has a total of 256 distinct features, but your fingerprint only has 40?

Are you a bit rough with your glasses? Titanflex frames are made using high quality memory titanium, ensuring it will spring back into place time and time again.

The very first known fossil of an eye was found in a Trilobite dating back to 530 million years ago!

Children under 16 (and under 18 if in full time education) are entitled to an NHS funded sight test. Many parents and children are unaware of sight problems and health conditions, so preventative measures can help improve future eye health.
