Bingley practitioner celebrates 30 years

Graham Bennett celebrated 30 years of service at Kenyon Opticians in Bingley having joined the practice in 1992 and progressed from dispensing optician to partner and now owner.

During Bennett’s time at the practice, he estimated that he had booked 113,000 appointments and fitted 42,000 frames.

He said over the last 30 years there have been huge changes within the industry and cited optical coherence tomography as one of the main innovations that progressed eye care.

‘We are very committed to the highest quality of clinical care. All eye examinations are performed by one of our fully qualified and experienced opticians. This is important because at some high street chains, patients will first see a technician, not an optician. We’re proud to remain different,’ Bennett said.
