Services
Eye Examinations
Comprehensive eye examinations lasting up to 40 minutes allow thorough assessment of vision and eye health. Our qualified opticians utilise advanced diagnostic equipment to detect visual impairments and potential eye diseases. The service includes detailed explanations of results and tailored recommendations for corrective solutions.
Dry Eye Clinic
Specialist dry eye assessments address chronic symptoms through front eye evaluation and tear analysis. Using Eye-Light technology, our experts develop individualised treatment plans to alleviate discomfort from gritty, burning or excessively watering eyes. Follow-up care ensures sustained improvement of chronic dry eye conditions.
Contact Lens Fittings
Full contact lens consultations cover suitability assessment, trial fittings, and hygiene training. We offer daily, monthly and toric lenses with comprehensive aftercare options. Our experienced team provides independent advice to match lens types with individual lifestyle requirements and visual needs.
Glaucoma Screening
Specialised glaucoma screening combines optic nerve examination, intraocular pressure measurement and visual field testing. Early detection of this sight-threatening condition allows prompt intervention through medicated drops or specialist referral, preventing further vision deterioration.
Children's Eye Care
Tailored eye examinations for children include myopia management strategies and coloured overlay assessments. Our child-friendly approach ensures comprehensive evaluation of visual development while addressing parents' concerns about vision-related learning difficulties or eye coordination issues.
