Services
Eye Examinations
Our comprehensive eye examinations assess visual acuity, eye health, and potential vision problems. Using advanced diagnostic equipment, we detect conditions like glaucoma and macular degeneration while providing NHS and private patients with detailed prescriptions. The 30-minute appointments include Goldmann applanation tonometry for accurate eye pressure measurement.
Contact Lenses
We offer tailored contact lens solutions including daily disposables, monthly lenses, and EyeDream orthokeratology. Our trial appointments let patients test lenses for 30 minutes before commitment. We stock major brands like Acuvue and Bausch & Lomb while providing ongoing support for comfortable, safe wear.
Prescription Lenses
Using Essilor's Varilux technology, we create customised prescription lenses with anti-reflective coatings and UV protection. Our Visioffice system ensures perfect frame-lens compatibility while the 2-year manufacturing guarantee covers premium anti-reflective coatings for complete peace of mind.
EyeDream Therapy
EyeDream uses overnight orthokeratology lenses to temporarily correct myopia. These gas-permeable lenses reshape the cornea during sleep, providing clear daytime vision without glasses. Ideal for active individuals and children, this reversible treatment safely slows myopia progression without surgical intervention.
Colour Me Beautiful
Our certified consultants use Colour Me Beautiful principles to help patients select frames that complement their facial features and skin tones. This service combines technical expertise with personal style guidance, ensuring both aesthetic appeal and optical functionality in frame selection.
