The Eye Clinic creates jobs for Belfast
The Eye Clinic has opened its first branch in Northern Ireland, creating 18 new jobs for Belfast.
The optometry chain, which is a part of the Health Clinic Group, has opened a two-storey practice in Donegall Place as part of a nationwide expansion plan, which has also seen new clinics open in London and Norwich.
The Belfast outlet will be staffed by four optometrists, one dispensing optician, several managers and 12 general staff, who will help customers with various aspects of eye care and eye wear products.
The new outlet brings the total number of eye clinics currently operated by the Health Clinic Group to 19, with plans to open a further three clinics this year.
Gary Latham, operations manager at the Belfast branch, said that he was confident that customers would welcome the arrival of the Eye Clinic in the province.
He added: "We offer the advantage of dealing with a large and long-established chain, while also giving the kind of service normally associated with small practices."
