Services
Eye Test
Our comprehensive eye tests take 30-50 minutes and include assessment of visual acuity, eye health, and intraocular pressure. Our experienced optometrists use advanced equipment to detect conditions like glaucoma and macular degeneration while providing personalised vision correction advice. All patients receive thorough explanations of their results and treatment options.
OCT Scanning
Optical Coherence Tomography provides 3D retinal scans to detect hidden eye conditions. This non-invasive test examines retinal layers for early signs of disease, offering greater diagnostic accuracy than standard eye exams. We perform three scans per eye for comprehensive coverage.
Contact Lenses
With over 25 years' experience, our specialist optician fits all lens types including daily disposables and varifocals. We offer trial periods with 24/7 support, and can fit complex prescriptions including rigid gas permeable lenses for improved vision correction.
Home Visits
We provide private home eye tests for medically housebound patients, including glaucoma screening and spectacle dispensing. Our opticians bring frame selections to patients' homes and offer follow-up aftercare visits to ensure continued visual comfort.
Hearing Care
Our qualified audiologist offers comprehensive hearing assessments, ear wax removal, and hearing aid fittings. We provide trials with major manufacturer devices and payment plans, alongside tinnitus consultations and custom ear protection solutions.
