About Us

The Partners in the practice are

Tim BowdenTim Bowden FADO (Hons) C.L., FFDO, FBCLA.  Tim is a contact lens optician who has specialised in contact lens fitting and aftercare for over 30 years, having started in optics over 40 years ago. He is a visiting lecturer in the contact lens department of City and Islington College in London and is also a contact lens examiner for the Association of British Dispensing Opticians. He has been involved in various research projects, mainly in the areas of the habits and opinions of contact lens wearers, and also the history of contact lenses. He has published widely and presented posters and lectures both in the UK and abroad. He serves on the GOC Fitness to Practise Panel and the Kent Local Optical Committee and was awarded associate membership of the International Society of Contact Lens Specialists in 2006, becoming a full member in 2008.

Elisabeth LoweElisabeth Lowe BSc FBCO.  Elisabeth is an Optometrist with over 30 years' experience graduating from London's City University in 1973. Her optical interests include colour vision, ocular muscle balance and dry eyes.

The partners previously owned two very successful practices in Gravesend and Herne Bay in Kent.

Both very much believe in what are now considered the old fashioned values of care and quality of service, and put these before consideration of profits. Both regularly attend conferences, in the UK and abroad, to ensure that they keep abreast of the latest developments in contact lenses and eye care.

The partners and Elaine, our optical assistant, look forward to being of assistance to you and are happy to help with any queries or concerns.
