The company is a subsidiary of Walgreens Boots Alliance (58%) and De Rigo (42%). HistoryThe company first began trading in the British optical retail market in 1983 in Nottingham, before opening practices in Peterborough, Leeds, Mansfield, Luton and Derby in 1984. Boots Opticians Ltd. was formed in 1987, with the acquisition of Clement Clarke Ltd. and Curry and Paxton Ltd. All of Boots Opticians' laser eye surgeries were bought by Optical Express in late 2004. On 29 January 2009, it was announced that Boots Opticians were to merge with Dollond & Aitchison, forming a chain of 690 stores and 5,000 staff after Boots purchased a controlling share in D&A.[2][3] Boots Opticians, combined with the old D&A, has become a large franchiser in the sector with 183 franchisees.
