Services
Eye Examinations
Our comprehensive eye examinations use advanced technology to assess vision and detect eye conditions. We offer free NHS-funded tests for all ages and enhanced exams with OCT retinal imaging. Regular check-ups help identify issues like glaucoma and macular degeneration at early stages.
OCT Retinal Imaging
Optical Coherence Tomography provides detailed 3D images of eye structures for early disease detection. This non-invasive scan identifies conditions such as diabetic retinopathy and glaucoma. The technology allows precise monitoring of eye health over time.
Children's Eye Care
Specialised eye examinations for children ensure proper vision development. We offer myopia management solutions and fun eyewear options from Nike and Planet Pop. Early detection helps address vision issues affecting learning and development.
Hearing Care
Professional hearing assessments and solutions include free hearing tests and ear wax removal. We provide discreet hearing aids with Bluetooth connectivity and rechargeable options. Micro-suction techniques ensure safe, effective ear care.
Orthokeratology
Custom contact lenses worn overnight reshape the cornea for clear daytime vision. This non-surgical option benefits those with mild to moderate myopia. Ideal for active individuals seeking freedom from glasses or daily lenses.
