Our Services
We offer a comprehensive range of optical services, including:
Eye Examinations: Full and comprehensive eye examinations, assessing your eye health and determining if you require vision correction. We welcome both NHS and private patients.
Children's Eye Examinations: Fully NHS-funded examinations for children, using age-appropriate techniques. We also offer a wide range of free children's spectacles if required.
Spectacles: From basic functional to fancy, and everything in between. We offer advice on the best frames and lenses for your needs and are always happy to discuss any specific needs, such as sports vision corrections or safety spectacles.
Contact Lenses: From routine check-ups, re-fitting existing wearers, or if you are completely new to contact lenses, we offer a full range of products and advice. We also have an easy monthly payment scheme for your contact lens care and lenses.
Optical Coherence Tomography: Some of the latest technology which allows us to examine beneath the surface of your eye. Especially useful in Macula Degeneration, or patients with Glaucoma in the family.
First Aid Appointments: If you have a concern about the health of your eyes but do not require a full eye examination, Peter is fully accredited to assess minor eye conditions like red or sore eyes, and advise accordingly.
Home Visits: If you are unable to visit the practice yourself for an examination, we are happy to visit you at home. This is a free service to those who are NHS entitled, but also available to those who are not. We cover Topsham, Exeter, and surrounding areas.
