  Welcome                                                                                                                    
 

Samantha Parker Optometrist has been providing friendly, professional eye care to the people of Knaresborough since 2002. As people told their friends about us we outgrew our cosy premises on the High Street and moved into a modern, purpose built practice on the Market Place. We took this opportunity to change our name from Knaresborough Eye Centre to Samantha Parker Optometrist.

We pride ourselves on the quality of our eye examinations and think it important that all stages of the process are carried out by a professional optometrist to fully understand your needs and ensure important details do not fall through the cracks. Our investment in technology means we can provide a comprehensive eye examination including digital retinal photography and visual field screening.

Our friendly staff understand that looking good and feeling good about your glasses, sunglasses and contact lenses is important to you. Our extensive range of frames has something for everyone including designer brands such as Versace,Ted Baker, PRADA, RayBan, Converse and Radley.
