We also require all visitors, even small ones to wear a face mask. If you are exempt we do ask if you can wear a mask during your time in the testing room at least, as you will be within 2 meters of our Optometrists at times during your examination.

The future of Myopia is statistically quite grim.
By 2050 it is estimated there will be 4758 million people with myopia (49.8% of the world population).
Myopia is also known by the name 'short-sight'.
It means that you might have great microscopes (your eyes see clearly up close), but your telescopes need some help (seeing further away).
A short sighted eyeball is typically longer than in a person who does not need a correction or prescription to help them focus for distant objects.
Both genetic and environmental factors contribute to a child's chances of becoming short-sighted.
