Optometrists are generally your first port of call and are located in most towns. They are equipped to provide a free NHS eye examination which will assess your vision and the health of your eyes. Where necessary they can provide spectacles.
Optician is a general term covering both dispensing opticians (who fit and supply spectacles) and optometrists (who can also provide eye examinations).
