Chris has been looking after the eyes of Llantwit Major and the surrounding area for nearly 20 years.
Originally from Newport, having moved around with his family, he finished his secondary education across the bridge, on the outskirts of Bristol.
After leaving school he went to Aston University to study Ophthalmic Optics, and following graduating he started his professional career in Wrexham, with the large family practice of F A Schwarz.
In 1993 he came to Llantwit Major to take over running a small practice, which he did until opening his current practice in 1999.
