The Sight Care Buying Group works with over 80 leading suppliers of optical products and services. Using the group strength of our buying group we are able to negotiate preferential terms and discounts with suppliers, offering preferential prices to our SPECS members whilst at the same time providing them with relief from the task of reconciling monthly purchases.
If you would like to access discounts that you can’t achieve as an independent practice, then the SightCare (SPECS) Buying Group could be for you.
You place your orders directly with suppliers in the normal way, quoting your SPECS account number, and goods are delivered directly to your practice; but invoiced to SightCare. Payment of the single total amount due will be collected by direct debit towards the end of each month, to pay suppliers on your behalf.

Supplier query handling
Less hassle – simply receive one consolidated statement of account each month
Typically, a SightCare Member spending £100k on optical products and accessories saves over £8k* per year as part of the SPECS buying group!
* based on a margin of 30%.
Let us take the strain!
You can view a list of SPECS companies currently supplying contact lenses, spectacle frames, accessories and consumables, and prescription houses, together with the discounts they offer, in the menu by clicking “SPECS Brochure”. This list is kept under review and applications from other organisations for supplier status are considered as they arise. You may of course purchase from other, non-listed suppliers, but such transactions cannot be processed through the SPECS Scheme.
Discounts and incentives vary from supplier to supplier and across product ranges. Additionally, a number of companies pay a retrospective overrider based on overall annual group spend; this is rebated pro-rata to qualifying practices the following March.
