About Us

Welcome to Eyes of Stokey, an independent optician and eyewear boutique in the heart of Stoke Newington, London N16. We offer comprehensive eye tests, OCT scans and personalised eyewear styling, combining clinical expertise with a thoughtful, considered approach to eye health.

As local practice, we take time to understand each person properly, offering a more personal alternative to the high street. Our collections are carefully chosen with our community in mind, bringing together independent eyewear and a curated selection ofvinatge archive pieces. 

Proudly local and community-focused. 

Why We’re Different

We’re not a typical optician in Stoke Newington. 

At Eyes of Stokey, nothing is chosen by chance, from how we care for your eyes to the frames you wear every day. 

We work with independent eyewear brands known for quality, craftmanship and responsible materials, alongside a curated selection of rare, unworn vintage frames- giving new life to beautifully made eyewear that might otherwise be forgotten.

No mass-produced eyewear. Just considered frames, tailored to real people, real faces and real lives.

We also offer personalised eyewear styling and colour analysis, helping you find frames that truly suit you -not just your prescription.

Founder, Nas

I’m a qualified Dispensing Optician with over 20 years’ experience in the optical world, with additional training in eyewear styling and colour analysis to help people find frames that not only improve vision but reflect who they are.


Stoke Newington has been home for most of my life, and this practice is a reflection of the creative, welcoming community I’m lucky to be part of.


When I’m not in the practice, I work for the Department of Optometry & Visual Science in a reputable university as a Clinical Tutor, and I also facilitate CPD training for ABDO. I’m passionate about sharing knowledge, building confidence, and helping shape the future of the profession.
