Mike Hale surveys revenue-building accessories for patients and the everyday consumables that make an optical practice’s world go round

Chemistrie, a magnetic clip-on from Mainline Optical Connections, is said to be a bespoke option that can be added to virtually any frame or lens type at the point of sale or retrospectively.

The product also comes complete with a carry case and cloth.

Practices are offered a free modelling pair to demonstrate the benefits to customers.
