We provide a thorough & comprehensive Eye Health check.
Looking after your vision matters. It’s not just about what your eyes can see, but what we can see in your eyes. Getting your prescription right is important, but regular examinations can also pick up signs of potentially serious conditions.
A standard eye test lasts for approximately half an hour and the optician will use a range of tests tailored to your individual needs. All of our eye tests are carried out using the very best in eye examination technology and your optician will provide step-by-step explanations so you know exactly what is involved at each stage. From your eye test through to finding the perfect frames and lenses for clear, comfortable vision, we will take the time to ensure that all aspects of your eye care are expertly looked after.
