About Us
The Outside Clinic, a privately owned company based in Swindon, serving the community since 1987 as the largest national provider of 'At Home' eye testing services.
Originally founded in 1987 by a small team of local opticians, The Outside Clinic has now grown into an organisation staffed by more than 195 dedicated professionals and support personnel. Half of the workforce are based at the head office in Swindon and the other half travel all over England, Scotland and Wales, visiting people in the community who are unable to visit a High Street Optician without help or assistance.
