Chris Lynch BSc (Hons) DipTp(IP)

Monday & Tuesday

GOC registration

01-27386

Chris graduated in Optometry from Glasgow Caledonian University in 2012 and qualified as an Independent Prescriber in 2016, so he can diagnose and treat many eye conditions right here in the practice. With more than 15 years in eyecare, he has a particular interest in emergency eyecare and OCT retinal imaging, and has mentored pre-registration optometrists.

What Chris enjoys most is helping patients understand their eyes, especially when someone tells him a problem they've lived with for years, or one that used to mean a trip to the hospital, has finally been sorted. Away from the practice, you'll find him out walking his golden retriever, usually with a good coffee in hand.

Morven Pollock FBDO

Monday & Wednesday

GOC registration

D-16746

Morven has worked in eyecare for 15 years and qualified as a Dispensing Optician through ABDO College in 2017. She's the person to see for varifocals and lens advice, frame styling, children's eyewear and ZEISS MyoCare myopia management, and she has a special interest in low vision.

Morven loves helping patients choose lenses that make everyday life easier, and seeing their confidence lift when they collect their new glasses. “Our close team feels like a family. It's a joy to be part of it.” Her own frame taste is anything a bit different, ideally in a bold colour. Outside work she's out and about with her young son, walking, enjoying a coffee or getting cosy at home.

Jill McNee BSc FBDO

In the practice

Days vary

GOC registration

D-15865

Jill has worked in optics since 2011 and joined the practice in 2020. She holds a BSc in Ophthalmic Dispensing and is a Fellow of the Association of British Dispensing Opticians (FBDO), with a particular interest in children's dispensing and complex prescriptions.

Jill loves the technical and creative side of dispensing: looking beyond the prescription to explore the lens options, technologies and frames available, and introducing patients to possibilities they may not have known existed. Her aim is the perfect balance of clear vision, comfort and style, so patients see the difference the right eyewear makes, both to how they see and how they feel.

Her own frames of choice right now are Tom Ford and Guess. Outside work she loves spending time with her son and her family and friends.

Jakki

With us since

2001

Jakki has been part of the team since 2001, so she has welcomed and looked after generations of our patients. Her role is mainly reception and administration, so she's often the first friendly face you'll see when you arrive.

She also loves helping patients find the perfect frames, and making sure their glasses fit comfortably when they collect them. “It's the people that make my job so enjoyable!”

Her own frame of choice at the minute is Wolf, and plenty of our patients have chosen the same. Outside work she loves spending time with her grandchildren, family and friends.
