Caring, Compassionate, Quality Community-Based Eye Care
Welcome to Medi-Optics, your premier independent optometrists in Cardiff. Founded by Dr. David Woolf in 2004, our practice has grown to become a respected name in the community, providing frontline primary eyecare services to the people of Cardiff. Our philosophy is rooted in providing a caring, compassionate, and quality community-based eye care service.
Our Philosophy
In an age of faceless conglomerate corporate organisations, we believe that community-based, artisan solutions are the way forward. We pride ourselves on being an independent optometrist, providing a personal touch that is often lacking in larger corporate optometry chains. Our ethos is built around providing a caring, compassionate, and quality community-based eye care service that puts the needs of our patients first.
Our Sites
We have two practices, one located in Roath Park and the other in North Cardiff. Our Roath Park practice can be reached on (029) 2076 4963 or via email at roathpark@medi-optics.com. Our North Cardiff practice can be reached on (029) 2075 4659 or via email at northcardiff@medi-optics.com. You can visit us during our opening hours, which vary slightly between the two practices.
Our Services
We offer a wide range of optometric and dispensing services, including routine sight tests, contact lens consultations, assessments for refractive surgery, occupational optometry, and emergency eye care. Our experienced optometrists use the latest technology, including 3D retinal imaging, to provide accurate diagnoses and personalized treatments. We also offer 30-minute appointments in a friendly, relaxed environment.
Our Optometrists
Our team of optometrists are accredited WECS practitioners, with some holding higher professional qualifications in Optometry. They are committed to providing exceptional patient care, using their expertise to diagnose and treat a range of eye conditions. Our optometrists are also involved in the Welsh Eye Care Scheme, empowering them to manage a wide variety of acute and chronic eye conditions in the community.
3D Retinal Imaging
We are proud to offer high-resolution 3D retinal imaging at our practices. This technology allows us to record longitudinal high-resolution images of the retina, macula, optic disc, anterior chamber, iridocorneal angle, and cornea. This is ideal for monitoring progressive eye diseases such as macular degeneration, diabetes, and glaucoma. Our 3D retinal imaging system is the same one used by NASA for assessing the eye care of their astronauts.
