Meet the Faces Behind the Frames: Tim the Optometrist
We thought it would be nice to take a moment to share some information about us, the Respectacle team, and what we do outside of work. While we do have the opportunity to get to know our customers when they pop in for an eye examination, or to source some new glasses, most of our conversations tend to focus on work-related topics. Only occasionally do we get to talk about the activities and hobbies that reflect our personalities and passions. So, read on if you want to learn more about how we spend our free time!
Tim our optometrist, has been practising optometry for over 40 years now. He’s a valued member of the Respectacle team and is very highly regarded by his patients. When he’s not at work, Tim keeps himself very busy with many different interests and hobbies.

Channel your inner Emily in Paris in L.G.R Sunglasses
So, Emily is back in Paris. Finally, after a whopping 20-month wait – the third season aired in December 2022! Having enjoyed the previous three seasons, I was excited to see the first half of season four drop on Netflix in August, with the concluding half of the series having just recently reached our screens.
Whilst the show is full of pretty people and focuses on Emily’s love interests (FYI, I can never decide whether I’m Team Alfie or Team Gabriel!), I find myself tuning in each season to see the bold fashion looks, some of which are frighteningly over the top. But then, that’s half the fun!
