Marks & Spencer have opened their newest branch of its M&S Opticians service in the store on Stall Street in the centre of Bath.
M&S Bath has become one of the first stores in the country to launch the new opticians service, which includes a full eye health examination for every eye test booked at no additional fee, with hearing tests also available.
Free eye tests are available as an opening offer, as well as 15% off glasses and sunglasses for Sparks customers.
There’s a range of designer brands to choose from including Mulberry, Prada, Joules, Kate Spade, Oakley, Police, Maui Jim along with leading lens manufacturers Zeiss and Nikon.
Advice on contact lens fitting and wearing is also available, alongside a contact lens home delivery option.
The store will be home to a hearing aid audiologist who will be offering free hearing health checks along with latest hearing aid technology, including rechargeable models and mobile connectivity.
In addition to the physical experience in-store, customers can book appointments online at mandsopticians.com/stores/bath, as well as view, purchase and try on glasses via the ‘virtual try on’ tool at https://mandsopticians.com/glasses/.
The opening of the M&S Bath opticians service follows a successful trial across ten UK cities, during which the service received a customer satisfaction rate of 96% and a customer recommendation rate of 96%.
M&S Bath Store Manager, Vicki Shillam, said: “We’re always looking for ways to make shopping at M&S even more rewarding and feedback from our trial showed that customers loved the convenience of having an Opticians service in our store.
“We’re really excited to be opening our M&S Opticians in Bath and hearing what our customers think.
“The choice of different brands we’re offering is second to none and we have brilliant opening offers to suit all budgets.”
