Services
Home Eye Examinations
We conduct comprehensive eye examinations in clients' homes, care homes, or residential settings. These tests ensure early detection of vision issues and eye health conditions. Our service is particularly tailored for individuals unable to visit traditional opticians due to physical or mental disabilities.
Glasses Supply
Custom prescription glasses are supplied and fitted following our home eye examinations. Each pair is engraved with the client's name and usage details to prevent confusion, particularly in care home environments. Delivery occurs within a week of the test.
Domiciliary Sight Tests
NHS-funded domiciliary sight tests are provided for eligible individuals unable to access high street opticians. These tests follow the same rigorous standards as in-clinic examinations, ensuring accurate prescriptions and eye health monitoring.
Aftercare Services
Our aftercare service includes free adjustments, repairs, and replacements for glasses supplied. Clients receive ongoing support to ensure their vision needs remain consistently met, with prompt response times for assistance requests.
Dementia Awareness Training
All staff undergo advanced dementia awareness training to better support clients with cognitive impairments. This ensures our team can provide compassionate, effective eye care while addressing the unique needs of individuals living with dementia.
