Leightons Reading has a long history, having been part of the town for several decades. The original store was on Oxford Road, before moving to beautiful new premises on Queen Victoria Street in 2016.
The new-look branch boasts cutting-edge equipment and the world's leading glasses and sunglasses brands, as well as the same personal, expert service you can always expect from Leightons.
Leightons Reading is pleased to now be welcoming customers of Caversham Eyecare Opticians.
Our businesses both share similar values, taking great pride in providing clinical excellence and high quality care to find the best solutions to suit our customers’ lifestyles. The familiar faces of Gary, Jayne and your regular optometrist will all be joining the Leightons team in store, extending the expertise we offer to the town.

"Wonderful service as always. I have relied on Leighton's Opticians since I was 13 years old, 55 years ago, and have never been disappointed. You always have a good range of frames and have encouraged my family to come to you. In 1964 I lived in Southampton where you still have the same shop in The Avenue. You are like an old friend." - J. Westwood
