our focus
We’ve been taking great care of your family’s eyes for generations
We opened our first practice over 47 years ago in Oldham. In 1984, we established our second practice in Littleborough, and quickly fell in love with the local community and village life.
While a lot of things have changed over the years, we are extremely proud that many of our patients’ and their families have been H&S customers from the very beginning.

Frequently Asked
Questions
How long does an eye test take?
Your eye test will take approximately 40 minutes plus the time it takes for you to choose your frames and lenses. Advanced eye tests, including OCT scans and contact lens appointments take longer. Please mention when booking if you think you might need a longer appointment.
Is it possible to change my date?
Of course. We understand things can happen, all we ask is that you provide us with a minimum of 1 days’ notice so that we can allocate the time to another patient who may need an emergency appointment. You can adjust your date up to two times without any additional charges.
Tell me more about your cancellation policy.
Your frame choice and prescription lenses are unique to you. Once your prescription frames have been ordered unfortunately we are not able to cancel them and we will require payment in full.
How does the billing process work?
To secure your order, we usually request a deposit payment with the remaining amount to be paid on collection. Customers can pay in instalments, but we do require full payment prior to collection.
How frequently should my eyes be checked?
This depends on a number of factors, for example, age, and whether you have or may be pre-disposed to an eye condition, which may require more frequent checks. Our optometrist will advise you at the end of your appointment but normally we suggest a full eye check every two years.
Will you remind me when I need to book a test?
Absolutely! Our system will automatically send you a reminder depending on how frequently you should have a check-up.
