Eye Tests
Our comprehensive eye examinations assess visual acuity and ocular health. Using advanced diagnostic equipment, we detect vision changes and potential eye conditions. The 30-minute standard test includes prescription determination, while our advanced 1-hour exam features retinal imaging for detailed health analysis. Both options include expert aftercare advice.
Designer Frames
We offer an extensive selection of designer eyewear from brands like Ray-Ban, Oakley, and Chanel. Our frames are updated quarterly to include the latest trends. Qualified dispensing opticians provide personalised fitting consultations, ensuring both visual and aesthetic satisfaction. All frames include standard single vision lenses in the ticket price.
Contact Lenses
Our contact lens service includes initial fittings, trial lenses, and ongoing aftercare. Available in daily or monthly disposable options, our packages include regular check-ups and cleaning solutions. We offer home delivery or in-store collection, with expert guidance on lens selection and insertion techniques during your consultation.
Prescription Sunglasses
We create prescription sunglasses using polarised or transition lenses that adapt to light conditions. Available in designer frames or as part of our free spare pair offer, these lenses protect against UV radiation while correcting vision. Our optometrists advise on optimal tint choices for specific visual needs and activities.
Lens Coatings
We provide specialist lens coatings including anti-reflective, UV protection, and blue light filters. Our Road Pilot coating reduces night driving glare, while Crizal coatings offer scratch resistance. These treatments improve visual comfort and lens durability, with expert recommendations based on individual lifestyle requirements and prescription needs.
