Services
Eye Test
Comprehensive eye examinations assess vision and eye health using modern diagnostic equipment. Our optometrists check for sight defects, eye diseases, and general health indicators. Patients receive detailed explanations of results and recommendations for corrective measures.
OCT Scan
Non-invasive OCT scanning creates detailed retinal images to detect early signs of eye conditions like glaucoma and macular degeneration. The quick, painless process aids in preventative care and accurate diagnosis for long-term eye health.
Designer Frames
Curated collection of designer glasses from brands like Ray-Ban and emerging designers. Our team assists with frame selection based on face shape, lifestyle, and visual needs, ensuring both style and functionality in every prescription.
Contact Lenses
Specialised contact lens assessments ensure comfortable, safe vision correction. We offer various lens types including daily disposables and extended wear, with ongoing support for proper hygiene and eye health maintenance.
