Our eye examinations from Anthony are first class. I have an eye problem but nothing is too much trouble and you always feel as if a thorough test has been done. My wife had to have new specs and Tina was very knowledgeable about what frames would suit and took considerable time and care in choosing the frames which looked best. Thank you all for your great service. Tony and Carol FyfieldPosted on Google![]()

Excellent customer care. Excellent serivce. Well looked after by Tina who was brilliant at suggesting glasses and honest abput what suited / did not look so good! Really pleased I took the 'leap' and chose to go to Clarke & Roskrow. Fabulous eyewear. Thank you so much. I will be back! And I did go back! July/Aug 2026 I cannot recommend C&R more highly. The eye test/examination very in depth...dud not feel rushed, had a lovely chat whilst my eyes were examined. No waiting. Only 1 room! Very calm, orderly and professional. Then on to Tina, who has, over the years been so helpful with the choice of specs. This year it was sunglasses and, again, Tina knows what suits and what doesn't. She also takes time to get to the know the person...she knows my likes/dislikes, colourways etc. She makes choosing eyewear fun. Thank you!Posted on Google![]()

I arrived at Clarke & Roskrow a slightly emotional middle aged woman, lacking a sense of identity and confidence, I left transformed.

Eye Examination Q&A
What happens during a Clarke & Roskrow eye examination?
Our private eye examinations are designed to be thorough, relaxed, and highly personalised. During your visit, your optometrist will carefully assess your vision and overall eye health using modern diagnostic technology, including Optical Coherence Tomography (OCT) scans as standard.
We also take time to understand how you use your eyes day-to-day. Whether that’s work, driving, reading, screens, or hobbies, we recommend the most suitable optical solutions for your lifestyle.
Many of our clients visit us from nearby areas including Leicester, Kettering, Stamford, Lutterworth and Northampton for this more personalised experience.
How long does an eye examination take?
Our private eye examinations typically last around 50 minutes, which is around twice as long as the typical high-street eye test. This allows us the time needed to properly assess your eyes and answer any questions you may have.
Many clients tell us they appreciate the relaxed and unhurried approach compared with the quicker eye tests often offered on the high street.
How often should I have an eye test?
For most adults, we recommend having an eye examination every two years.
However, depending on your prescription, eye health, or age, your optometrist may recommend more frequent visits to keep your vision and eye health properly monitored through regular professional eye exams.
Do I need an eye test if my vision seems fine?
Yes. Eye examinations check much more than simply whether you need glasses.
A professional eye exam can detect early signs of eye conditions and sometimes wider health issues before symptoms appear, which is why regular eye examinations are an important part of looking after your long-term health.
I get my sight-test for free on the NHS; can I have an NHS Sight-Test with you?
We have been a fully-private practice since 2021 and no longer offer NHS Sight-Tests, which only provide for a basic level of clinical care and time. As a modern, forward-thinking 21st century optical practice, this was something we no longer felt comfortable offering. Instead, we prefer all of our clients to benefit from the highest level of clinical care with our Advanced Eye Examination, and just £7.50/month covers all this and more!
If you are eligible for and would prefer to have a basic NHS Sight-Test there are 5 optical stores in town who still provide NHS Sight-Tests.
Do you do sight-tests & glasses for children?
We’re more than happy to look after your child’s/children’s eyes. Children’s eyecare isn’t a big part of our business, with most of our clients being aged 40-years and upwards, but we can certainly help children/youngsters to see better, look better and feel better in glasses.
We have Family Membership on the EyeCare Plan or you can choose to pay for your child’s consultations on a pay-per-visit basis.
Children in full-time education up to the age of 18-years are eligible for an NHS Sight-Test, so if you would prefer to have an NHS Sight-Test the other 5 optical stores in Market Harborough can provide this, as well as help towards the cost of glasses through the NHS Optical Voucher scheme.
I wear contact lenses more than glasses - can I get my contact lenses and check-ups from Clarke & Roskrow Styling Opticians?
“Impressed with the extremely thorough eye test and the eye wear selection process. Such exciting choices too! None of the usual pressure to choose, more relaxing and hence, very enjoyable. This is an experience in itself. Excited for my next visit!”
