Private Eye Examination
Our comprehensive 45-minute eye examination includes OCT 3D scanning technology for detailed retinal analysis. This advanced diagnostic process detects early signs of ocular conditions while determining precise vision correction requirements. The examination is suitable for all ages and includes professional consultation regarding eyewear and eye health recommendations.
OCT 3D Scans
Optical Coherence Tomography provides cross-sectional images of the retina for early detection of conditions like glaucoma and macular degeneration. This non-invasive scan forms part of our private examinations and is available as an add-on for NHS patients. The technology creates detailed 3D maps of ocular structures for accurate diagnosis.
NHS Eye Services
We provide NHS-commissioned services including MECS for urgent eye problems and cataract assessments. Our accredited optometrists conduct pre- and post-operative evaluations meeting hospital referral standards. These services require Shropshire-based GP registration and follow strict clinical protocols for patient safety and care continuity.
Spectacle Lenses
We offer Hoya's Myself V+ individualised varifocals and premium brands like Zeiss and Essilor. Our lenses feature advanced technologies for occupational needs, sports performance, and digital eye strain reduction. All lenses include expert fitting to ensure optimal visual comfort and adaptation to new prescriptions.
Contact Lens Fitting
Our specialist fitting service covers daily disposables, toric, multifocal, and coloured contact lenses from major manufacturers. The process includes comprehensive eye health assessment and trial lenses to ensure comfort and visual acuity. We provide ongoing support for both new and experienced contact lens wearers.
