Linda Eye Candy Opticians

Linda Brannigan

 

When Linda qualified as an Optometrist she knew that one day she would open & run her own practice, hence in 2006 Eye Candy Opticians became a reality. Linda’s vision was to be able to offer a comprehensive Eye examination followed by the dispensing of frames & lenses sourced from niche fashion houses.

Many of her suppliers have been sourced from exhibitions that Linda frequently attends in Paris, Milan and London. By staying ahead of the trends and offering a unique selection of frames to her customers means that many pieces on offer are once off styles.
Following numerous courses and workshops including a Minor Eye Condition Service Emergency Care Course, in 2017 Linda opened her Dry Eye Clinic, which she is passionate about as she has encountered many patients suffering from this condition now more than ever. When not in Eye Candy Opticians Linda enjoys spending time outdoors playing tennis, golf, walking and gardening.

Candy of Choice: Jellybeans – The more colour the better – Just like her favourite style of frames!

Worked at Eye Candy Opticians for 13 years. During this time, i found the job to be both satisfying and rewarding. i furthered my studies by obtaining an Honors Degree in Dispensing Optics in 2013. i enjoy the challenge of achieving the best fit and appearance of spectacles on our patients, especially those who have complex prescription.

When not working, I love cooking, travelling and attending a regular art class.
