“I started using Maltings Eye care when I lived in Markyate. When I moved out of the area I kept using them because they are SO good. So I now travel a significant distance just to keep using them instead of my local opticians. Doesn't that say it all?
They are clever, resourceful, and always go the extra mile to make sure I get the best service. And their prices are very competitive too. Keep the independents alive and go here instead of Specsavers etc..” M.W. Bedford
