Examinations

As an independent practice, we pride ourselves on providing a comprehensive eye examination. Generous appointment times allow the optometrist to get to know you and to discuss your general health as well as your ocular history to build up a complete picture of your eye health and eye care needs.

Our digitalised instrumentation allows us to store images and reports to supplement our in-depth analysis. All our findings will be fully explained to you and should you require a referral for further investigations or procedures – such as cataract removal – there will be plenty of time to discuss your options and any concerns or questions you may have.

If you need spectacles or contact lenses, the optometrist will take the time to explain the various choices available before our experienced dispensers help you choose the right frame and lenses for for you.
