Eye Examinations
Our comprehensive eye exams use OCT scanning to assess vision and detect early signs of conditions like glaucoma and macular degeneration. We tailor examinations to all age groups, ensuring accurate prescriptions and long-term eye health monitoring. Patients benefit from 45-minute appointments with expert optometrists.
Contact Lenses
We offer daily, monthly, and toric contact lenses, including options for astigmatism and myopia management. Our fitting service includes trial lenses and follow-up checks to ensure comfort and clarity. Coloured and varifocal lenses are also available for diverse lifestyle needs.
Designer Frames
Our selection includes exclusive designer brands and budget-friendly frames for all ages. We provide styling consultations to match facial features and prescriptions. Frames start at 15, with discounts available through our Eye Care Plans.
Myopia Management
Specialised contact lenses and spectacles slow myopia progression in children. We use MiSight 1-day lenses and tailored assessments to manage short-sightedness. Early intervention helps reduce long-term vision complications through regular monitoring.
Hearing Care
Complimentary hearing tests and micro-suction wax removal are available alongside digital hearing aids. Our audiologist provides tinnitus treatment and tailored solutions, including rechargeable and Bluetooth-enabled devices. Aftercare ensures ongoing support for all hearing needs.
