Bailey Nelson on Cashel Street is an optical store in the Christchurch CBD, at 2/79 Cashel Street, where eye tests are done by the store's own optometrists and glasses, sunglasses and contact lenses are sold on site. The optometrists check the health of the eyes as well as the vision, using equipment the website describes as state-of-the-art, and they can assess how reading and computer work affect the eyes and suggest ways to reduce strain. The store carries a wide range of contact lenses, including Acuvue Oasys, Dailies Total1 and Biofinity, and the website lists a 30-pack of Acuvue Oasys 1 Day from $62 as at 2026. The store's phone number is (03) 930 6645.
