Combining his vast experience with his Ophthalmic Dispensing qualification from the ABDO College (Kent), Ian is passionate about bespoke dispensing and resolving complex prescription requirements.

Outside of work Ian loves going to music festivals with his partner. He has an interest in martial arts, karting and watching formula 1 racing.
