Services
Eye Examinations
Our comprehensive eye examinations use advanced technology to assess vision and eye health. We test for glaucoma, cataracts, and macular degeneration while checking for indicators of systemic conditions like diabetes. Patients receive detailed explanations of results and recommendations.
Contact Lenses
We offer trial periods for contact lenses with expert fitting services. Our opticians help select appropriate lens types based on lifestyle needs, including disposable and specialist lenses. The Contact Lens Plan provides ongoing aftercare and product discounts.
OCT Scans
Optical Coherence Tomography scans provide 3D imaging of retinal layers for early detection of eye diseases. This non-invasive procedure takes minutes and is recommended for patients over 40 or those with specific risk factors.
Audiology Service
Our audiology services include free hearing assessments and ear wax removal using microsuction. We supply advanced hearing aids with Bluetooth connectivity and provide tinnitus management solutions tailored to individual needs.
Designer Eyewear
We offer over 1,200 frames from premium brands like Hugo Boss and Etnia Barcelona. Our dispensing opticians assist with frame selection for optimal fit and style, providing single vision, bifocal, and varifocal lens options.
