Your Eyelines team
Neil Donnelly
Originally from Belfast, I moved across the water to train at the University of Wales in Cardiff and graduated in 1992. After my Pre-Registration and qualification in West Wales, I have worked mainly in London and the South East of England. Although my two boys were born here, they definitely follow their parents and support Ireland on the rugby field. I enjoy being outdoors, whether in the garden, on the Golf course; or in winter, in the mountains with two planks of wood strapped to my feet. I enjoy watching most sports but also love reading a good book. My favourite author is Sir Terry Pratchett, although I am also a big fan of Tolkien- hence calling my dog Bilbo Baggins.
My goal is to provide the best quality eye care for you and your family.

I work as the Dispensing Optician in practice. I originally studied Archaeology at the University of Exeter and got ‘a job’ in an opticians working as a Trainee Optical Assistant. I originally planned to do this for about a year and save for a car and driving license to do field archaeology however 9 years later I still don’t have a car or work in Archaeology. Instead, I have had some fantastic experiences within optics, studied and qualified as a Dispensing Optician and learnt about incredible advancements in the field. So, if you have any questions about your vision, glasses or eyes do pop in and say hello and I look forward to meeting you!
