The Story Behind Spectacle Designer Studio — Born from a Vision of Care

The Story Behind Spectacle Designer Studio — Born from a Vision of Care


Spectacle Designer Studio was not created by chance — it was born out of a vision.
 
A vision that began with me, Jag Kainth, an Optometrist and founder of Oracle Opticians in Shipley, West Yorkshire. 

For me, eye care has always been about more than just prescriptions and spectacles. It’s about trust, precision, and the human connection between patient and practitioner. Every examination I carry out and every recommendation I make comes from the same place — a genuine desire to protect and enhance people’s sight for the long term. 

The Challenge — A Changing Optical Landscape 

In recent years, I’ve watched the optical industry evolve rapidly. Online shopping has made buying spectacles faster and easier than ever before — but also riskier. Much of the online eyewear market remains unregulated, meaning that patients often purchase lenses and frames without the oversight of a qualified professional. 

That lack of regulation can lead to lenses that are poorly centered, prescriptions that are incorrect, and in some cases, eye strain or even long-term harm. As an Optometrist, I knew there had to be a better way — a way to combine the convenience of online shopping with the clinical care and quality control you’d expect from a regulated optical practice. 

The Birth of Spectacle Designer Studio 

And that’s where Spectacle Designer Studio was born — an online eyewear platform owned and operated by my bricks-and-mortar practice, Oracle Opticians.

This isn’t just another e-commerce site selling glasses. Every product available through Spectacle Designer Studio has been curated, checked, and certified by a GOC-registered Optician. Each pair of spectacles is verified against your prescription for accuracy and safety, and supplied with a Certificate of Authenticity, giving you peace of mind that your eyewear meets the same professional standards you’d expect in practice.

Our mission is simple — to merge style, craftsmanship, and professional assurance. Spectacle Designer Studio allows you to explore luxury eyewear from the comfort of your home while knowing that every order is handled by qualified professionals who genuinely care about your vision. 

An Evolution of My Philosophy 

Spectacle Designer Studio is a natural extension of everything I’ve built at Oracle Opticians. It’s a continuation of the same philosophy: doing things properly and putting patients first.

I’ve seen first-hand how difficult it is for independent practices to compete with unregulated online platforms, often because we adhere to strict GOC and NHS guidelines. But rather than view that as a limitation, I see it as a strength. Regulation protects you — the patient. It ensures your spectacles are made accurately, fitted safely, and dispensed ethically.

That’s the difference with Spectacle Designer Studio — every purchase supports a registered practice, not a faceless online warehouse.
