​Our Story

I founded Specs at Home after nearly two decades of working in the optical industry. Since 2006, I’ve seen the best and worst of eye care — and too often, I've seen patients being let down. I've watched people rushed through eye examinations, pushed towards products they don't really need, or left feeling more like a sales opportunity than a patient. It's never sat right with me.

 

That’s why I decided to do things differently. Specs at Home was born from my belief that eye care should be built on honesty, dignity, and professional integrity. When I recommend a product, it’s because I truly believe it’s the right choice — not because of sales targets or upselling. My guiding question is always simple: what is genuinely best for this patient?

 

I’m proud to work alongside my colleague, Ketan Jadeja — a Moorfields Eye Hospital Specialist and highly respected Optometrist at Day Lewis Opticians. Together, we bring the best of both worlds to our patients: advanced hospital-level clinical expertise and specialist dispensing experience. That means thorough eye examinations, accurate prescriptions, and carefully chosen frames and lenses that genuinely improve comfort, vision, and quality of life.

 

With Specs at Home, my mission is to restore trust in eyecare. For patients, families, and care providers, it’s about peace of mind — knowing you’ll always be treated with respect, transparency, and genuine care. Every visit we make is guided by the same principle: doing what’s right for you, not what sells.
