INDEPENDENT OPTICIANS IN ONCHAN AND PORT ERIN

OUR STORY

Newby & Padley Optometrists was founded in 1991 by Jenny Padley (nee Newby) Bsc (hons) M.C.Optom and John Padley Bsc (hons) M.C.Optom. Both studied Optometry at Aston University and both had Manx connections.

After gaining membership of College of Optometrists they continued to work in large Optical practices in the East Midlands and Warwickshire areas.

Born and educated in the Isle of Man Jenny came ‘home’ in 1990 and took over the running of 2 existing practices in Port Erin and Peel under the ‘Jennifer Newby Opticians’ name.

John spent many summers from the age of 7 on the Isle of Man and needed little encouragement to settle back on the island. He became principle optometrist at one of the larger corporate opticians on the island.

A little over 12 months and a ski accident later, John was required to help run Jennifer Newby Opticians. When the leg was fixed they opened up a third practice in Onchan. Jennifer Newby Opticians became Newby & Padley Optometrists. John still has a passion for skiing, Jenny is not quite so keen.
