Services
Eye Examinations
Our comprehensive eye exams detect vision issues and general health problems like glaucoma, diabetes, and hypertension. Conducted by GOC-registered optometrists, these tests use advanced technology for precise results. We recommend biennial exams, with more frequent checks for specific needs.
Contact Lenses
We supply and fit contact lenses for astigmatism, multifocal needs, and complex prescriptions. Our Contact Lens Care Plan includes aftercare appointments, competitive pricing, and home delivery. Patients receive guidance on hygiene and lens maintenance for optimal eye health.
OCT Scanning
Optical Coherence Tomography (OCT) creates 3D images of eye layers to detect early signs of conditions like macular degeneration. This non-invasive scan complements standard eye exams, enabling proactive management of long-term eye health.
Colorimetry
Precision-tinted lenses and coloured overlays alleviate symptoms of visual stress, including headaches and blurred vision. Tailored to individual needs, this service helps patients with reading difficulties caused by light sensitivity or neurological conditions.
Myopia Management
Specialised spectacle and contact lens solutions slow myopia progression in children. Our approach combines clinical expertise with evidence-based treatments to reduce future risks of severe eye conditions like retinal detachment.
