An invitation · Unsworth & Urmston
You're invited to experience the STOTTS. Signature Consultation.
We've reimagined what an appointment can feel like — and we'd like you to experience it first. This isn't a discount. It's an invitation to help shape what modern eyecare should feel like.
A different kind of appointment
Most opticians focus on eyesight. STOTTS. focuses on how you actually use your vision.
The experience
Ninety unhurried minutes, in four considered chapters.
Every Signature Consultation moves through the same thoughtful journey — from a real conversation, through advanced clinical assessment, to lenses and styling chosen entirely around you.
01 · The conversation
It begins with you, not a chart.
Before any lens touches your eye, we talk — about your work, your screens, your hobbies, the driving you do at night and the book you read before bed. Your consultation starts by understanding how you actually use your vision, because that is what we design everything else around.
02 · The clinical examination
A complete picture of your eye health.
A thorough, unhurried assessment using advanced imaging — OCT, and Optomap at our Urmston practice — to look beyond your prescription to the long-term health of your eyes, spotting subtle changes early.
Allow 90 minutesYour clinical examination includes
- Analysis of your history and symptoms
- Lifestyle consultation
- Digital refraction (calculating your prescription)
- External eye examination
- Ultra-wide field retinal imaging using our Optomap, at our Urmston practice
- Retinal deep-range imaging using the Topcon Ocular Coherence Tomography
- Intra-ocular pressures (measurement of eye pressure)
- Suprathreshold fields (basic peripheral vision check)
- Full threshold fields (comprehensive peripheral vision check)
- Tailored recommendation & treatment plan
- Referral for further investigation if necessary
- Nutritional advice for healthy eyes and tears
- Dry eye analysis
03 · The Lens Atelier
Lenses chosen around how you live.
In our Lens Atelier you'll discover what modern lenses can really do. We match lens design, coatings and tints to your day — sharper screens, easier nights, glare that no longer bothers you — and explain every choice, so nothing is left to guesswork.
04 · Styling & discovery
Eyewear that feels unmistakably yours.
With your prescription understood, the styling begins. Expert colour analysis and an unhurried look through our independent collections help you find frames that suit your face, your colouring and your life — eyewear you'll be glad to wear every single day.

Why it works
Because better vision is about more than a prescription.
A number on a prescription only tells part of the story. The way you see depends on your lifestyle, your screens, your hobbies and your work — and the way you feel depends on eyewear that genuinely suits you.
By bringing clinical care and styling together, the Signature Consultation gets both right at once. You leave seeing more clearly and feeling more confident, with recommendations made entirely around you.
Consultation FAQs

How long does the consultation take?

Never. The consultation is about understanding your eyes and your needs. Any eyewear is entirely your choice, with no pressure.
