This month marks 21 years working at McDonald Adams for Alison Hand, our Practice Manager. That is a significant work history! And a chance to acknowledge the huge impact Alison has had during her time with us.

Starting as part time reception, admin and optical assistant in 1999 her role with us has evolved as her experience grew - She now runs the show. She is an integral part of the eycare we have been able to deliver here at 41 Queen Street. What better way to tell the story of that time - with a display of her eyewear.

When Alison began work with us she was not a glasses wearer - but that changed over time! Starting with glasses for reading and close range she has moved to progressive lenses. During this time she has found stylish and eye catching frames. She has also used contact lenses - great for motor cycle tours - but enjoys glasses. Her description: they are an easy accessory.

PS She still has her entire collection of glasses!
