Eye Examinations
Our comprehensive eye examinations utilise hospital-standard equipment including computerised vision testing and retinal imaging. Our highly skilled optometrists assess your vision through detailed sight tests while gathering family health history to provide accurate prescriptions. With hospital experience and advanced technology like digital fundus cameras for diabetic screening, we ensure comprehensive eye health assessments beyond basic high street tests. Patients can opt for enhanced private eye examinations that exceed NHS standards for more detailed analysis.

We offer specialist contact lens fittings for complex prescriptions including astigmatism and keratoconus. Our experienced optometrists provide trial lenses, aftercare appointments, and patient education on proper lens handling. We offer all types of soft and rigid gas permeable lenses including daily disposables, toric lenses, and multifocal options. As a Johnson & Johnson Visioncare Acuvue Centre of Excellence, we ensure expert fitting for both standard and medical necessity contact lenses while providing infection prevention guidance.
Sports Vision
Our sports vision service evaluates athletes' visual performance beyond standard eye charts. We provide specialist eyewear solutions including polarised lenses for glare reduction, tinted lenses for enhanced contrast, and impact-resistant frames for various sports. With experience working with Premier League footballers and Olympic athletes, our sport vision optometrist offers prescription sports goggles and wraparound frames tailored to specific sporting needs while ensuring maximum eye protection and visual clarity.

We provide child-friendly eye examinations using computerised test charts and specialist equipment in a welcoming environment. Our service addresses children's unique visual needs including school vision assessments, hand-eye coordination improvements, and early detection of conditions affecting learning. We offer myopia management guidance and specialist lenses for children requiring complex corrections, ensuring proper visual development through regular check-ups and age-appropriate testing techniques conducted by our experienced eye care professionals.
Eye Tracking
Our eye tracking technology uses infrared cameras to analyse reading patterns and eye movements. This advanced diagnostic tool measures eye coordination, fixation duration, and reading efficiency through detailed statistical analysis. The system detects subtle vision issues that might affect reading performance, making it particularly valuable for educational assessments and identifying visual processing difficulties that standard eye exams might miss, providing insights into binocular vision function.
