The subject premises occupy an outstanding and highly visible trading position in a densely populated High Street situated with excellent access to major bus, tube, rail, road and motorway links in East London.

This long established and highly regarded practice currently specialises in the provision of a virtually 'one stop' range of fully cutting edge optometry solutions for a long-standing and still-expanding repeat and referral client base of all ages drawn from throughout a wide surrounding catchment area.

The practice offers professional, clinical standard services including eye testing, screening and diagnostics, retinal photography, paediatric eye care, pre laser surgery assessments, driving assessments (DVLA, PCO, HGV and PCV bus and train), dyslexia and dyspraxia assessments, dry eye clinic/red eye assessments, corporate eye care and associated in-house minor eye care and remedial services, with home visits also available upon request.

Particularly renowned in the industry as a specialist contact lens centre with many referrals from other eye care specialists in the region, the practice also conducts a highly complementary sales operation of a wide selection of designer and non-designer spectacle frames, sunglasses, sports and protective eye wear, industry approved safety eye wear and associated eye care products, and would naturally furnish any enthusiastic and ambitious 'hands on' practitioner with considerable scope for continued growth, not least with regard to further development of its home visit services, particularly for elderly customers in outlying areas, possible investment in qualified staff, and to the possible introduction of Sunday trading in order to exploit the full potential capacity of its facilities.

The practice would also benefit by adopting a more vigorous marketing policy of its excellent existing services, both through its own informative dedicated website, and to the development of a social media presence, in order to improve upon the already impressive levels of fee income it has achieved since being established in its present form in 2007 by the current practitioner.

Alternatively, this versatile proposition would most certainly appeal to some major regional operator looking to significantly increase its existing share of the professional ophthalmic solutions services market by the acquisition of a dynamic and superbly located additional independent practice with a priceless local name and an already impressive client database.

The practice is run on a day-to-day basis by the current founding practitioner, with the aid of just one full-time receptionist and a pool of occasional visiting independent specialists, and we would strongly urge any genuine interested parties to pursue the earliest possible enquiries to avoid disappointment.

Fitted to high industry specifications throughout, these well maintained leasehold commercial premises provide excellent and highly functional internal business accommodation, which briefly comprises an inviting and glazed, double-door public entrance with disabled access into the main, bright and welcoming client reception and service showroom area with seating for waiting customers, diffused fluorescent strip lighting, stylish and durable timber-effect laminate flooring throughout for easy cleaning, a full complement modern displays for frames and sunglasses, low level built-in storage units and a prominent and fully fitted service counter with telephone, till point, credit card payment facilities and computerised client database system.

The main public area, in turn, affords easy level access through to a relaxing and extensively equipped private ophthalmic examination room with adjustable treatment chair, fitted washbasin, storage units and a full range of clinical standard eye testing, screening, diagnostic and retinal photography systems, all of which we understand is to be included in the sale price and further details of which will be made available upon request to any genuine interested parties.

The premises also feature a fully furnished and computerised private and general administration back office with telephone, internet access and full complement of modern, industry specific business management systems, with further ancillary accommodation consisting of a good-sized archive store with floor-to-ceiling shelving, together with all the usual washroom/WC facilities.

The premises also enjoy the benefit of electric heating, in addition to the added security benefits of external steel roller shutters to the main entrance and windows and a full alarm system.
