Tagline: Independent Opticians in Kimberley — A Personalised Service
Kimberley Opticians is an independent opticians practice based in Kimberley, Nottingham, established in 2011. The practice is now owned and directed by Dr Farra Hargreaves, an optometrist with over 20 years of experience in community and hospital eyecare, glaucoma, emergency care, and NHS directorship. They serve patients of all ages — from children to adults — offering NHS and private eyecare with a strong focus on personalised, continuity-of-care service.
