Eye Examinations
Our comprehensive eye examinations detect vision problems and monitor ocular health. Utilising modern diagnostic equipment, we assess visual acuity, eye coordination, and internal eye structures. The NHS covers free tests for eligible patients, while private examinations include detailed assessments of retinal health and intraocular pressure to identify early signs of glaucoma, diabetes, and other conditions.
Spectacle Frames
We offer an extensive selection of spectacle frames from renowned brands including Tom Ford and Ray-Ban. Our collection features modern and classic styles in various materials and price points. Customers receive expert guidance to choose frames that complement facial features while meeting functional requirements for work, sports, or daily wear.
Contact Lenses
Our contact lens service includes initial fittings, trial periods, and annual assessments. We provide various lens types including daily disposables and extended wear options. New wearers receive free instruction on proper handling and maintenance, while existing users benefit from our clinical assessment service to ensure continued eye health and comfort.
Retinal Imaging
Digital retinal imaging captures detailed images of the eye's posterior structures including the optic nerve and blood vessels. This service enables early detection of ocular diseases like macular degeneration and diabetic retinopathy. The non-invasive procedure forms part of our comprehensive eye examinations for patients seeking advanced diagnostic capabilities.
Frame Repairs
Our technicians perform professional frame repairs using specialist tools and techniques. We fix most damaged spectacles including broken hinges, misaligned frames, and scratched lenses. This service helps customers extend their eyewear lifespan while maintaining optimal vision correction through properly aligned frames.
